minutes from downtown Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, makes
it clear that Water Island is a great real estate investment!
Retire
Whether it's the warm weather (temperatures
remain in the 80s (28C) year around), the activties (golfing,
sailing, diving, or just lying by the pool, to name a
few), or the great retirement community (how about lunch
with the R.O.M.E.O.s? - "Retired
Old Men Eating Out") - Water Island is an ideal place
to spend your Golden Years!
Live
Only a few minutes by ferry away,
St. Thomas is the economic hub of the Virgin Islands, and
employment opportunities abound. Water Island boasts proximity
to a major international airport, and with high-speed internet
access on the island, you can telecommute anywhere. The
Antilles School is an award-winning
private school attended by children from around the Caribbean,
and with a variety of leisure activities - fine dining,
water sports, cultural events, and travel - you won't lack
for things to do on the weekend!
Why? Why
choose Water Island over St. John?
St.
John has been known as the high-priced, elite
location in the USVI. The high-priced part
is definitely still true, as prices skyrocket
out of control. In 2005, the lowest price
of a lot sold in St. John was $400,000, with
most properties going for over one million
dollars. In comparison, Water Island still
has many affordable lots, with the cheapest
currently listing for around $200,000. In
addition, Water Island boasts a five-minute
ferry ride to Crown Bay Marina in Charlotte
Amalie, the capital city of the Virgin Islands,
as well as unmatched exclusivity and privacy.
Water Island is
like a
neighborhood unto itself, with less than two hundred
residents there, yet has all of the amenities that
St. Thomas has to offer just minutes away.
Why?
Why choose Water Island over St. Thomas?
St. Thomas
is the economic, financial, social, and cultural
center of the U.S. Virgin Islands. It has most restaurants,
supermarkets, hardware stores, and entertainment
facilities that one would expect from any major
U.S. city. However, St. Thomas is also the tourist
center of the USVI. All of that means congestion,
traffic, and the annoyances that come with living
in a big city. Water Island, on the other hand,
offers the privacy and serenity of a secluded island
in the Caribbean, yet has all of the amenities that
St. Thomas has just minutes away.
Why?
Why choose Water Island over St. Croix?
St.
Croix, located forty miles south of St.
Thomas and St. John, suffers from some
isolation and some crime issues. The largest
of the four U.S. Virgin Islands, it is
sparely populated, and lacks many of the
resources and amenities available in the
other Virgin Islands. Water Island offers
privacy, security, and easy access to
all the amenities of St. Thomas and St.
John.
Why?
Why choose Water Island over other islands in
the Caribbean?
The
top reason? Water Island, as one of the U.S.
Virgin Islands, is a territory of the United
States of America. As a result, Water Island
enjoys the security and protection of being
under the U.S. flag, as well as secure property
rules, concrete title verifications, flexible
banking options, and American-style laws and
regulations. Water Island is close to the Cyril
E. King International Airport, with direct flights
to major U.S. cities,and is just a short flight
or boat trip to Puerto Rico, the British Virgin
Islands, as well as a great starting point for
exploring the Greater or Lesser Antilles. No
other island in the Caribbean has the same combination
of privacy, security, value, and U.S. territorial
status as Water Island.
