Kia Sorento: 3rd Row or Extra Storage

March 2, 2021
March 2, 2021

The Kia Sorento has a spacious interior within a sporty midsize SUV. A third row of seating makes this vehicle accommodate up to seven passengers — or fold the third row down to use the cargo space for luggage and extra storage.

The Kia Sorento is ranked #1 in Midsize SUVs in U.S. News and World Report. Their write-up calls the Sorento “upscale and comfortable”. The interior is attractive and made using premium materials throughout the cabin. Some reviewers even say it could fit in to the luxury SUV category.

Centerline Car Rentals has an assortment of Kia Sorentos in our rental car fleet.

The main house offers two bedrooms with ensuite baths and a half bath. The entire home is decorated with a style that evokes the romance of exotic travels around the globe and the serenity of the far east.

Built-in cabinetry throughout the house recalls storage crafted for a sailing schooner, and West Indian-style window shutters open to admit the trade winds that give the villa its name. You’ll find the roomy dine-in gourmet kitchen perfect for entertaining with built-in wine cooler and stunning views of the Caribbean Sea through the full length glass sliders.

The stylish poolside apartment has everything you need for some privacy with a roomy sitting area, galley kitchen, full bathroom and king sized bed. For those traveling with kids or additional guests, there’s a lovely additional room with twin beds.

Going for a Scenic Drive

March 23, 2020
March 23, 2020

Well, we just wouldn’t be a rental car company if we didn’t love going for a scenic drive on St. Croix, now would we? While there’s lots to do by foot and fins, sometimes there’s just nothing like rolling down the windows, putting on some good tunes, and hitting the road to take in the sights.

Some of our favorite moments in the car are when you crest the top of the hill at The Buccaneer, the peak of The Beast, feeling nestled in among the vines and trees of the rain forest, and rounding the bend of Grassy Point.

Our Top 3 Favorite Scenic Drives

  1. North Shore Road is a winding jaunt along the coast. You’ll pass steep ocean bluffs, historic sugar mill ruins, beautiful Cane Bay, and breathtaking views the whole way. There are some great places to stop along the way for a snack, too!
  2. A drive through the rain forest puts you deep within the island’s flora and fauna. Other things you may encounter include beer drinking pigs, an organic farm, and an old dam.
  3. The East End Loop is about a 12 mile drive along rolling hillsides and the Caribbean coastline. You might even make pit stops at Divi Casino and Ziggy’s gas station. Of course, you’ll also want to take the scenic drive out to Point Udall.

The Talented Musicians of St. Croix

March 16, 2020
March 16, 2020

We think it’s safe to say there is live music somewhere on St. Croix every night of the week. From acoustic to rock to folk to R&B to jazz and many other genres, there’s something for just about any musical taste. St. Croix Calendar is a good resource for live music on island.

Perhaps you’ll be lucky enough to catch one of the Caravelle Hotel & Casino’s block parties or free concerts. Or to hear one of the youth steel pan bands that play at various events and festivals. Jazz in the Park in Christiansted and Sun Set Jazz in Frederiksted are popular free monthly events for the community too.

Going Fishing

March 2, 2020
March 2, 2020

In the waters surrounding St. Croix, you can go fishing for sport or for dinner. You don’t have to go far offshore to catch a number of migratory fish, like mahi, wahoo, tuna and marlin. Or you can stay in-shore for snapper or tarpon.

There are several fishing tournaments on St. Croix each year, including the recent Golden Hook Challenge and Fish With A Vet.

You can learn more information about what kind of fish you’ll find and where in the VInow.com Fishing Guide, as well as the fishing regulations in the USVI. GoToStCroix.com is a great resource for fishing charters.
