Short-term rentals (STRs), commonly referred to as vacation rentals, are legal in Saint Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, and regulated by the Department of Licensing and Consumer Affairs (DLCA). These rentals are designed for accommodations lasting less than 90 days in private residences, including homes, condominiums, and villas. The DLCA issues two types of business licenses: a "Short Term Rental A" license for properties accommodating five or more guests, costing $260 annually, and a "Short Term Rental B" license for properties accommodating up to four guests, costing $195 per year. The market is primarily tourist-driven, attracting visitors seeking leisure and recreational activities, particularly during peak travel seasons, with properties like beachfront villas and condos thriving. STR operators are also required to collect a 12.5% Hotel Room Occupancy Tax on rentals, which enhances government revenue and aids homeowner associations in managing compliance with local regulations. For further details and updates on licensing and regulations, you can visit the official site of the St. Croix Chamber of Commerce at.
