I'm excited to tell folks about St. Croix and the many "good things" that are available on the island. We've got a website devoted to all things St. Croix from scuba diving to real estate. If you're planning a vacation or wanting to move to St. Croix our website will be a good place to start your research.
&lt;p&gt;
The name of our site is Cruzana.com. &lt;a href="http://www.cruzana.com"&gt;Click here to check out Good Things on St. Croix, including St. Croix real estate!&lt;/a&gt; We've got restaurant reviews, beach reviews, links to all the Realtor websites, and a whole lot more.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
NEW! Recently we found a North shore home for sale that is out of this world...
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
So our favorite home on the planet is for sale&amp;hellip; the Oh Wow! house it&amp;rsquo;s called. The name comes from a small sign at the top of the driveway. Right after you get out of the car, you&amp;rsquo;ll walk over to this sign and see the most amazing view&amp;hellip; and involuntarily say, &amp;ldquo;Oh Wow!&amp;rdquo;. Yes, that&amp;rsquo;s how beautiful it is.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The current price is $1.75 million. The house is adorable. There&amp;rsquo;s a swimming pool. And the owners are the nicest people you could meet. This house will make some lucky family very happy. &lt;a href="http://www.cruzana.com/home-for-sale/"&gt;Click here for a quick introduction to the Oh Wow! house with a photo of the stunning view to Carambola and Hamm's Bluff...&lt;/a&gt;

      <title>Moving to St. Croix Island? Try Cruzana.com</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cruzana.com/real-estate/" title="St. Croix Real Estate"&gt;&lt;img title="st. croix island real estate" src="http://www.cruzana.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/3-column-research.jpg" border="0" height="150" alt="St. Croix usvi aerial photo" width="260"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Moving to St. Croix USVI is an interesting choice. The weather is great, the island is beautiful, and it's a relatively short flight compared to Hawaii or many other tropical islands. However, there are downsides to consider that most Realtors don't like to talk about too much... like crime, poor governmental services (like police), shopping limitations, etc. For us the positives far outweigh the negatives though.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We started looking at property soon after our first visit, although we do that everywhere we visit. During that process we spent time driving all over St. Croix Island from Christiansted to Frederiksted, from Point Udall to Cane Bay. And then of course we got home to New England and hopped on the computer to scope out listings. That was about five years ago.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since that time we have not found the perfect house, although prices increased significantly and then declined this year. But we keep hunting, keep trying to find a home that fits our family. During our research we've uncovered many St. Croix websites that have links to the St. Croix MLS, or show certain properties not on the MLS. We finally decided to build a website to list all the good things we've found. If you are thinking about moving to St. Croix our website may be very helpful to you. It called Cruzana.com. &lt;a href="http://www.cruzana.com" title="St. Croix Island Real Estate"&gt;Click here to visit CRUZANA.com...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
