This is our second trip in 2 years to Sugar Beach. The location really works well as it is near the middle of the island and makes it easier to get to other parts. The property is definitely in need of some love and some money invested into its upkeep. The door lock is buggy, sometimes malfunctioning, and always leaving you wondering if you will be able to unlock it again when you return. We didn't find it to be particularly dirty, but there are some maintenance issues that should have been addressed a long time ago, including water damage inside and out. When it rains, the water pools on the patio creating a safety hazard (my daughter slipped, fell, and hit the back of her head). You are encouraged to open the screen doors to feel the ocean breeze, however, several screens have rips and none stay on the badly damaged tracks (one fell on my son), so you will have to also watch for mosquitos. There are some pool floats, noodles, and snorkel gear and plenty of towels, which is nice. Even though we didn't need all of the bedrooms, we enjoyed the extra space and used one room as the kids' "playroom" in the evenings. Heads up if you are new to the island -- the power goes out from time to time and can take several hours to come back on. It's a nuisance but part of island life on St. Croix.
