Offering loaded accommodation in a cottage style with a least possible environmental impression, Virgin Islands Campground has opened on the Water Island spreading over 500 acres.

People who are dreaming to have a feeling to be close to nature without leaving behind the warmth of home can make this eco-sensitive resort with exclusive tent-cottages in the US Virgin Islands their choice to visit for. From Crown Bay on St. Thomas, the resort is just a ten-minute ferry ride.

The eco-sensitive, wood frame and canvas cottages are taking shelter among dense greenness. The cottages also have separate terraces overlooking the sea.

Furthermore, the cottages are also equipped with wind-powered electricity, so as to maintain a least possible environmental impression.

Visitors can grill and enjoy their meals at the nearby Pavilion – the gas grill, dishware and cooking utensils are provided.

Guests can wash at the common Bathhouse, where solar-heated collected rainwater has been used for the showers and sinks.

In addition, next to the solar-heated hot tub, the guests can also have a sunbath or they can have a five-minute walk down to Honeymoon Beach.

People who prefer their private space are also not left behind, as the campground rents one efficiency apartment with a large-sized bed, kitchenette, separate bath and an ocean scene.

Other attractions that the campground offers include bicycle and snorkel rentals and a communications room where guests have the access to Internet and satellite TV.
