About this property

Breezin' Up - location, location, location - beach front at Gentle Winds

The beautiful sandy beach at Gentle Winds is just a few steps away from this two bedroom condo. After savoring your morning coffee and the amazing view from the screened porch, just open the door and stroll on the beach.

The view from the comfortable living room is just as good. The foyer features a quiet sitting area while on the other side of the galley kitchen is the main dining area and living room. There is seating out on the screened in porch as well.

One bedroom offers a queen size bed while the other has two twin beds that can be made into a king. Two bathrooms provide privacy and convenience. The free-form pool is shaded by palm trees and the Beach Shack offers lunch and tropical libations. Choose from the on-site diversions of tennis, golf, basketball, ping-pong, snorkeling, or simply lounge the day away.

Gentle Winds is a popular condo complex complete with pool, sandy beach, tennis, putting / chipping green and The Beach Shack, serving great lunches and creative cocktails. Located on St. Croix's north shore on 40+ private acres, Gentle Winds is just about 10 minutes west of Christiansted. Gentle Winds is positioned to take advantage of it's beautiful tropical surroundings and sea views. Green hilltops of the surrounding mountains are a backdrop and the turquoise Caribbean Sea is at your feet. Listen to the soothing sounds of the birds, rustling palms, cool breezes and the Caribbean Sea lapping the beach while enjoying the warmth of sand between your toes.

For those that wish to enjoy all the wonderful outdoor activates our island has to offer- diving, snorkeling and kayaking are just minutes away. Golfers will certainly want to experience the Robert Trent Jones designed Carambola Golf Course, as well as horseback riding and the waterfront restaurants and outstanding sandy beach and reef wall at Cane Bay.

Cloquet Vacay

We traveled with three other families with their adult children. We rented three units at gentle winds. All were as advertised and wonderful.

Beautiful View

We enjoyed our stay here at this beautiful location. The view is spectacular and the unit is cute and clean. The box containing the keys needs to be replaced, as it is very difficult to open or close. Our driver managed to open it, but really had to put a lot of force on it. The twin beds were too hard for me to sleep on, so I slept on the couch. We did enjoy our stay though!!!! The pool, snack bar and beautiful beach make this an awesome place to stay!

Great but not amazing

As many have said, the location is great but the unit is in need of an update. We loved the community overall with the beach, pool, grill & bar, chairs and many of the amenities offered while staying here. The room itself is fine, but very worn and musty.

Nice Location, Needs Maintenance

Pros: The condo complex was well maintained, had a nice pool/beach area, and the unit is close to the beach. The living/dining room was comfortable and had a good TV and cable service. The master bedroom was nice and had a nice bed. Cons: Much of the furniture was worn and/or broken and much was too low to the floor (the foyer sitting area is useless for this reason). The bathrooms need to be refurbished (I do not believe either shower/tub can be used as a bath because the mechanisms for closing/opening the drain are broken, the master bath shower head has badly leaking seals so only half the water actually comes out as spray, and neither shower has a wand (which I consider mandatory in a beach house). The kitchen is mostly functional but old with a dishwasher that can only be run at night because it is so loud and burners on the stove which are not level. The tap water tasted awful and was discolored. I was told by guests in other units that was not a problem with their units. I wish I could post pictures to illustrate the issues but at this point in the review process, that does not appear to be an option. With a little care, this couldcbe a 5-star unit but for the reasons above I had to knock the rating down a couple of stars. Despite the limitations, we did enjoy our stay.
