The Buccaneer is situated on 340 hilly acres between a large lagoon and the Caribbean Sea, on the eastern end of St Croix, less than a five-minute drive from the sightseeing, shopping and dining found in the historic town of Christiansted.
General Facility Description
The Buccaneer is a completely modern hotel with a fascinating historical background. It was in 1653 that Charles Martel, a Knight of Malta, constructed the first building on Estate Shoys where The Buccaneer is located.
This French Great house, which overlooks one of the swimming pools, was placed out of sight of the sea to protect from roving foes. Later, after the Danes bought the island in 1733, Governor von Prock built his home on the estate, turning the French Great house into a sugar factory and erecting the sugar mill which is as it was in the days when sugar was king.
