DO NOT BOOK WITH CHAD! FRAUDULENT LISTING!
WARNING THIS IS A LOOONG ONE! The host was extremely helpful and very communicative BEFORE our stay! Upon arrival I received a text from Chad that his property manager, Lisa, would be meeting us at the airport rather than himself. She was 40 minutes late and her response was “relax, island time”! At the villa I asked how often the pool was cleaned. I was told it had been cleaned that morning (Thursday) and was scheduled to be cleaned on Tuesday but if it really needed to be cleaned to “just reach out” Almost immediately as we began deciding who would get each room we started to discover the issues. One bedroom had two large puddles of water from leaks in the roof. I immediately contacted Chad through portal and received no response. I reached out to Lisa and was told that Chad was aware of the leaks. Broken jacuzzi’s same answer. Broken dining chairs, same. Filthy bathrooms, same. Dirty dishes in cabinets, same. I didn’t know I needed to lodge a complaint while we were still on property and so when I contacted VRBO there’s While sett

Location was perfect! Lisa was wonderful! House was perfect for our larger party; 7 adults. Only issue was that the shower in the basement was not available to use which was somewhat of an inconvenience, but we worked around the issue. Would I book this property again, YES.

Awesome stay!
Lisa did a great job hosting us. Lisa greeted us at the airport to show us to the house. And she waited thru a small delay to do so! The house matched the description and pictures on line. If you are willing to rent a property off the beach … this is a great option. Also, make a reservation at Duggans Reef for the best sea food on the island.

Beautiful House and Wonderful Stay
Everything about the VRBO process, communications, stay and house was easy and timely. The house itself is beautiful. The views were amazing. Chad, Enid and Lisa were responsive and provided great information about the house and things to do on island. There were one or two things that we did need help with and they reacted and resolved quickly, so that we were comfortable and could continue to enjoy our stay. It was a great house and we would definitely stay there again.

Paradise In St. Croix
I stayed at this beautiful home with my wife, two kids, my sister and her husband and my nephew, and my mother. We were extremely impressed with the home - it was much bigger in person than what I thought it would be based on the photos. It is also very well kept, it has everything needed to enjoy a fantastic vacation in St. Croix. The location was great for us, we were able to get to excellent family friendly beach locations easily with our cars and also get to restaurants and grocery stores easily. The home has a beautiful view and an amazing pool which the whole family enjoyed. The home had a pack and play for our youngest baby as well which was great. We did have to clean the pool but during the stay someone came to clean it for us even better, we even got a non stick pan brought to us which was a really nice thing they did for us. I would recommend staying at this property with a large group, we could have brought another family and had plenty of space!

We had 8 adults that were all family ranging in age from 22-82. We enjoyed the large kitchen and living room area, as well as the deck. The view is amazing and we had wonderful weather. We cooked many of the meals ourselves and enjoyed the family time. Thanks to Enid, Lisa, and Chad for answering our questions before and after we arrived. The staff and all the people we met on the island were very friendly!

Our stay was absolutely amazing. Lisa met us at the airport as soon as our rental car was loaded and ready to go. She gave us the guided tour of the property. The property looks just like the listing. Plenty of space, clean, fully equipped... We put groceries and drinks in the house and needed nothing else. Great beach is nearby. Shopping is 15 minutes away. I fully recommend this property and will return!

Family vacation
This house was absolutely perfect for our family! It definitely had the “wow” factor when we first walked in, so beautiful and spacious! The views were great especially from the main family room. I was so grateful there were a few stairs leading to the pool and we didn’t have. To worry about our granddaughter getting to the pool before us and the second living area right off the pool deck was great for our son and his wife. Having the laundry facilities was also so helpful as we used the pool a lot. The beaches we used were a short 10 minute drive away but we stayed all afternoon and had dinner there too. We were also lucky enough to see the fire dancers and stilt walkers which is traditional in st croix. We also used Chad’s recommendation to have the house supplied with some breakfast provisions before we go there. Our flight was late and we were famished by time we got there so I would highly recommend that. Chad also responded to all my questions and concerns immediately which makes him the perfect host. Lisa was the concierge who escorted us to the house and she couldn’t have been nicer and more helpful! Thank you to all for making our vacation special!

I rented chad's villa for half of our bridal party with the rest staying nearby. Chad was communicative throughout the entire process and answered all of my questions. The property manager, Lisa, was amazing and was able to stock the villa with our groceries before arrival!! The house is gorgeous with amazing views. Enough space for everyone to spread out. Everyone had a great time hanging by the pool during the day.

An amazing stay to celebrate my celebrate my Birthday!
We stayed at this lovely property to celebrate my birthday with family. Our party consisted of 4 adults and 2 children. We had plenty of space as the property can easily accommodate double the amount of guests. The house was tucked away in the hills with an incredible view from every balcony in the house. The pool area and view was incredible! The entire house was so warm and inviting and had all the comforts and amenities of home. We really enjoyed being able to prepare meals in the massive chef's kitchen, they had every appliance! We also took advantage of the concierge service to stock the house with all the food we would need during our stay. We suggest you rent a car which was a recommendation from everyone and makes it easy to travel in town. We traveled to the beach, downtown Christianstead for a quick burgers, and Dugan's Reef restaurant for my birthday dinner, which sits right on the water and had amazing seafood! We really enjoyed our stay and the hospitality of the staff. I would absolutely return for another stay in the future. Thank you for making my Birthday one to remember!

This is a beautiful home in an amazing setting. There’s an almost constant breeze, making it nice and cool no matter how hot it was outside. My daughter, her partner and their family stayed in the main home and I had the lower level apartment to myself, which worked out perfectly since I am an early riser and didn’t have to worry about waking them or my grandchildren. Would love to stay again!

House was perfect for our mother daughter trip of 7. There was ample space for everyone, the views were spectacular, and it is located near some wonderful restaurants. Only thing we didn’t realize when booking was that one of the bedrooms & kitchen was essentially in a separate apartment with its own outside entrance.

Better then the photos
We had a wonderful concierge who brought us to the property. As we drove into the property, I was pleasantly surprised. The views are even more spectacular than the photos can capture. Both inside and out I thought the property was better than I envisioned from the photos. I loved that they had a bubbler of water provided for us, The master bed was very comfortable. We spent most of our time on the covered porch when we were not at the pool. We stayed in January and February and I thought that the pool would be warmer, but they do not heat many pools in St. Croix due to the high electricity cost. Other than the chilly pool everything was lovely!
