What’s better than taking a vacation on an island paradise, surrounded by emerald waters and pristine beaches and bathing suit-clad folks holding beverages with little umbrellas in them? Saving money? How about doing both at the same time! The U.S. Virgin Islands is offering this dream combination of idyllic vacation and fiscal savings with a Sizzlin’ Sampler promotion. The package includes a complimentary fourth night at a participating hotel, $300 in air credit, $50 worth of coupons for attractions, another $50 of coupons for dining and yet another $500 worth of coupons for other island offerings. Who doesn’t want to pay less for one of those drinks with the little umbrellas?

The U.S. Virgin Islands consist of St. Croix, St. Thomas and St. John, as well as several smaller, less-developed islands
and cays which may or may not be in consideration for the next season of Survivor. No passport? No problem! If you’re a U.S. citizen, all you need is a government-issued photo ID or your birth certificate. I’d bring the photo ID. If you like duty-free shopping, the aforementioned little umbrella drinks or the easternmost point in a U.S. territory (Point Udall), the U.S. Virgin Islands are the vacation destination for you. Check out the TravelMuse article “[Escape to the U.S. Virgin Islands|http://www.travelmuse.com/articles/usvi/vacation-planning-us-virgin-islands-caribbean]” to learn more about why people visit these paradise islands.
