Farm Stays at Ridge to Reef Farm

FARM STAYS ARE SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE DUE TO GLOBAL PANDEMIC. PLEASE CHECK BACK FOR UPDATES

ORGANIC FARM STAY RETREATS

In the Northwest mountains of St. Croix USVI, you will find a unique jungle-like getaway like none other in the Caribbean: where you can immerse yourself completely into the rainforest, cucooned by vibrant life all around, on a productive Farm to School and Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm. Get your hands dirty in the fields, explore the rainforest, or just lay back and enjoy the slow pace of an active farm, off grid island style. Simple solar-powered accommodations are only one part of your stay.

“Stay on Ridge to Reef Farm at the Virgin Islands Sustainable Farm Institute. The farm in St. Croix’s pocket-size rainforest welcomes overnight guests in stilted cabanas and in Hawk’s Nest.”

FARM STAY OPTIONS

Note, staying on the farm is like glamping (Glamorous Camping). As a matter of fact you can camp if you preferred to bring your own tent!

Cabanas are petite, screened in all around with simple beds, outdoor porch lounging area with an outdoor sink. There's an outhouse close by in addition to the main Community Center bath house and regular toilets. The community center is the main shared kitchen for guests, providing all the basic amenities of a kitchen. Walking distance between community center/parking/bathhouse and the cabanas is about 3 minutes on uneven terrain. Anticipate wearing comfortable walking shoes and using headlamps at night when walking to and from your cabana.

Minimum night stay: 3 Night minimum in the Bush!

2) Bunk Cabana: Share your cabana (hostel style): $55/night/person

3) Private Cabana: Enjoy your private cabana: double occupancy $85/night (every additional person: $30 extra). Private cabanas can be booked by 1 to 4 people. s = single bed bb=bunk beds

For group rates, please contact us directly to discuss how we can host your group. Staying at the farm is a transformational experience for groups, especially high school and college level. How would we describe staying at the farm for groups? Adventurous, off-grid, sustainability focused, authentic, down to earth and in it, and guarenteed to provide so many rich opportunities for life lessons in personal development. If you can remember that time growing up where you had an awakening of the world around you, the farm is that kind of place.
