Crisis? What crisis?

Uber-cool Steele Point has just announced that they've opened a new guest house. Blackbeard's Hideaway - a two-bedroom villa which features a fully equipped kitchen, open living and dining area, large pool deck and outdoor dining areas is open for business. And according to the availability calendar already has bookings.

Off-season weekly rates run at $4,125 U.S. while high-season will set you back $5,500. Larger groups can still book the stunning Steele Point house or the smaller Gestalt.

Peter Island's new nest

I have a real soft spot for the Peter Island Resort -- which draws me because of its proximity to Roadtown, its sleepy, laid-back vibe and stunning beauty. Not to mention it routinely makes the Condé Nast gold list.

The 52-room resort is adding new luxury digs to its stable of villas. The six-bedroom, 10,400-square-foot Falcon's Nest Villa is slated to open on April 1.

The villa sits high on the peak of the hill overlooking White Bay Beach. It consists of three separate residences which offer views on a clear day to Norman Island and over to St. Croix in the distance.

The nightly rate for the villa is $8,000.
