The Buccaneer: A "Treasure" Worth Finding
Hideaways ambassador Paul McAskill, Eliot, ME

It doesn't take much imagination to picture what St. Croix must have looked like to the pirates that preyed on passing ships in the 1700s. As my wife, Brenda, and I looked out from the terrace of our waterfront room at The BuccaneerTHC, admiring the view of a turquoise sea and protected cove, it was easy to imagine smugglers and pirates choosing these shores as the perfect hiding place for their stolen loot. No wonder the island was a hotbed of activity for pirates in their day!

Brenda and I, on the other hand, found The Buccaneer and the island of St. Croix to be peaceful and relaxing, a perfect match for our laid-back travel style. We tend to seek out little-known places and those offering an authentic experience, while hopefully getting to know the locals. To that end, our plan was to rent a car and spend the majority of our days exploring the island, knowing we had a fantastic place to come home to each evening.
