Arawak Bay Inn
With stellar views of St. Croix's North Shore and an affable host, this pink-stucco hotel, where each of the comfortable rooms has a different color scheme, allows you to settle into island life at a price that doesn't break the bank. Second-floor rooms have views of Columbus Cove, and there's a small swimming pool. The included breakfast runs to bacon and eggs, but you can also get local dishes like salt fish.
