However, you must act fast, because the booking deadline is Monday, July 13; the travel dates vary from property to property but overall the promotion covers travel through October 31. Make sure you use the code USVI300 to get the discounted price.

Other properties in St. Thomas include Antilles Point Pleasant Resort, valid for travel August 21-October 31, from $359 or the Sapphire Beach Resort and Marina, an all-suite property, priced from $469 for travel through August 20. For St. John, the promotion starts at $499 for travel August 21-October 30, for the Westin St. John Resort and Villas, which is situated on a private white sand beach on Great Cruz Bay and isn't far from the Virgin Islands National Park.

Cheap Caribbean is known for the "free your mind" program it offers its travelers: $100 coupon off if it rains, $50 promotional code to use for every successive trip you book through the company, a price match guarantee and a hurricane and protection plan. If you are at all concerned about traveling during hurricane season, for example -- some of the travel dates cut into the beginning of the season -- we usually recommend independent travel insurance.
