Divi Carina Bay Resort and Casino

Frommer's Review

Opening onto 1,000 feet of sugar-white beach, this resort brought gambling to the U.S. Virgin Islands. That fact seems to obscure its success as a place of barefoot elegance and a top resort property. Accommodations feature oceanfront guest rooms and villa suites with views of the Caribbean. Rooms are good-size and well-equipped with a kitchenette, full bathrooms, and balconies. We prefer the accommodations on the ground floor as they are closer to the water's edge. The 20 villas across the street are about a 3-minute walk from the sands. The resort also has its own PADI scuba dive center.

The kitchen is strong on fresh seafood and serves the island's best Sunday brunch ($35) in its Starlite Grille.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; 2 bars; casino; 2 pools; tennis court; health club; spa; 2 whirlpools; dive center; snorkeling; room service; babysitting; laundry service; nonsmoking rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility
