We selected this property back in December for family group (ourselves, adult children/spouses, and 3 grandchildren). Then a pandemic happened. The owner was always prompt responding to messages, and she worked with us to ultimately reschedule to a later date.
The property representative was at the airport when our flight arrived, and she led us to the house, showed us around, answered questions, and directed us to the grocery store.
The house was perfect for our group. We were walking distance to beautiful Cane Bay Beach and a couple of casual restaurants (but we mostly drove because of kids and no sidewalks). The beach at the house was more rocky, and the surf more choppy, but still made a good snorkeling and beach combing spot. Despite the August heat, the breeze at the house made sitting outside very pleasant. The pool was great for keeping the kids entertained.
There are several lounging areas outside around the property so it was easy to find a bit of quiet.
House was very well equipped and clean. Beds were very comfortable. AC units in the bedrooms kept the temp good for sleeping. We mostly ate in, and found everything we needed in the kitchen.
This was our first time in St. Croix, and we liked the central location of the property. It’s was an easy drive into Christiansted to catch the boat to Buck Island. Scuba and snorkeling equipment were nearby (we used Sweet Bottom at Cane Bay).
We were very impressed with the efforts throughout the island to contain the spread of Covid-19. It was a wonderful week, and we hope to come again when we can do more exploring.
