Divi Carina Bay Beach Resort & Casino Adults Only

The Resort & Its Setting

Divi Carina Bay Resort & Casino is built around a simple idea: no children, no kids' clubs, just a calm stretch of St Croix set aside for couples, solo travellers and groups of adult friends. It's an independent property with an RCI affiliation, meaning it sits outside the major hotel-brand timeshare systems but still plugs into RCI's exchange network for owners who want to swap their week for stays elsewhere. The on-site casino gives it a bit of after-dark character that's unusual among Caribbean timeshares, most of which wind down once the beach umbrellas come in.

St Croix: The Island Around You

St Croix is the largest of the three main US Virgin Islands and, by most accounts, the least hurried. Danish colonial buildings line the streets of Christiansted and Frederiksted, the diving and snorkelling along the north shore is genuinely excellent, and the pace is noticeably slower than on St Thomas. Because the USVI is US territory, American citizens can travel here without a passport, and the US dollar is the currency used everywhere – useful to know if you're budgeting a trip around a week you own or are renting.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

Owners who no longer use their week at Divi Carina Bay Resort & Casino can list it for resale or rent directly on BidMyTimeshare.com. You set your own asking price, buyers and renters contact you through the platform, and we charge sellers a one-time listing fee rather than a cut of the sale – there's no commission taken when the deal closes.

Because this is an independent resort, resales aren't processed through a major branded points system – they go through the resort's own owners' association or management office. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, ask management directly for the current transfer fee and the latest annual maintenance fee, since these figures aren't published and change over time; neither party wants a surprise at closing. It's also worth asking whether the association holds a right of first refusal on resales, as some independent resorts do and others don't – get this confirmed in writing rather than assuming either way.

A resale buyer typically takes on the deeded week or points interest itself, along with the obligation to pay future annual fees, but does not inherit any loyalty perks, bundled extras, or prior owner promotions – only what's written into the deed or contract transfers. If RCI exchange privileges matter to a buyer, confirm with RCI directly that the membership is transferable and active before the sale completes, as exchange company membership and resort ownership are handled separately.

What Renters Typically Look For

Renters booking a week here are usually after exactly what the resort promises: an adults-only, low-key beach setting with no children underfoot. Clear dates, confirmation of what's included (unit size, view, any resort fees), and straightforward communication through the listing go a long way. Since the resort sits on St Croix's quieter south side, renters wanting to explore beyond the property should plan to hire a car to reach the main towns and north-shore beaches.

Practical Notes for Owners and Travellers

December through April is St Croix's dry season and the easiest stretch of weather for a Caribbean trip, so RCI members should book exchanges for this period well ahead of time. Henry E. Rohlsen Airport serves St Croix directly, though some travellers route through San Juan first. There's no sales tax on the island, something locals and regular visitors are quick to point out when it comes to shopping.
