About this location
Perched on a hillside north of Frederiksted, Contessa's Castle commands sweeping views over the west coast of St. Croix and the open Caribbean.

The surrounding grounds include mature tropical gardens, stone terraces, and a pool that reflects the sky — offering a range of compositional options from intimate architectural details to wide aerial overviews.
