The reason to consider it.
Perched at the highest point of Providence Hill on 3.24 acres, 88 Water Island is widely regarded as one of—if not the—most extraordinary private residences on Water Island. With commanding views to the East, South, and West over the Caribbean Sea, and St. Thomas to the North, this landmark property offers a rare combination of history, privacy, craftsmanship, and panoramic beauty.
Originally selected by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers during World War II as a strategic observation and communications site, the property’s iconic three-story steel-reinforced concrete tower remains a defining feature. In the early 2000s, the estate was thoughtfully rebuilt and expanded by renowned Virgin Islands architects John Woods AIA and Jaredian Design Group.

What people say about US Virgin Islands
Sources agree that the US Virgin Islands is simple to enter for Americans, since it is US territory, but costly to run once there.
- Concern WAPA electricity is expensive and outages are routine; backup power is treated as standard
- Concern Insurance is a hard market: higher premiums, large percentage windstorm deductibles, trouble for wood-frame homes; flood is separate
- Mixed Closings are attorney-led, take longer than on the mainland, and need a USVI-licensed lender; surveys matter on irregular hillside lots
- Mixed Condo costs are driven by windstorm insurance; check reserves and master policy before buying
