Occupancy is different for each rental in St. Croix. Smaller properties allow 2-4 people, while larger ones can accommodate groups up to 20. Most rentals charge different rates depending on the occupancy, which reflects additional wear and tear on the property as well as higher utility usage (which in St. Croix is a major factor....electricity prices in St. Croix USVI are around 50 cents per kilowatt-hour and the bill can get very large very quickly).
