Wonderful!

Here for a wonderful week. Lovely home and peaceful, relaxing location which we were seeking. A bit surprised this is not a single family home and there were shared walls; sort of a townhome. It ended up being just fine, but please know there is somebody living in the other unit.

Best little hidden gem

This place is fabulous. The location is nice and secluded for privacy but you are only about a 1 mile away from a shopping center. The views are absolutely breathtaking, especially during sunrise and sunset. I would love to visit this place again someday when I return to the Caribbean Islands.

Relaxing Vacation

The home is very nice and clean. The most impressive party of this property is how secluded it is. You have a few hundred years of beach shoreline all to yourself! Even though it's not great for swimming, it is a big benefit to have such privacy.

Our stay was amazing - a small slice of heaven as we called it! Gail was gracious and helpful in her communication and made check in easy! The house is clean and had everything we needed and then some! The pool is a relaxing retreat and the beach was perfect for an early morning walk!

Myself and 5 ladies had the BEST week ever!!

The location is so beautiful and peaceful! You can listen to the sea while going to sleep and wake up to the same sea music. Relax by the pool for hours. Watch horses graze… we were booking our next stay before we left. Gail was quick to answer questions that we had and was very nice! Love this place!!

Fantastic!

What a great house. It is very private and remote, making it a perfect getaway. The house sits right on the ocean, so all you hear is the sea. The surrounding landscape is natural and untouched. There are horses roaming free around this and adjacent properties, adding to the cool vibe of the place. The weather was great and the ocean breakers flows through the house making it comfortable night and day without air conditioning! It’s great place- I highly recommend staying there!

Amazing property!

We were more than impressed with the property. The owner was responsive to inquiries before we arrived. We spent an amazing 8 days here. The living/dining/kitchen area was just right, and the bedrooms were huge. We really appreciated all the small extras (i.e., beach towels, beach chairs, etc.) The kids loved using the pool, especially after we parents were tired from long days exploring the Island. The property is somewhat remote, but felt safe. There is a small beach within a 2 minute walk. We never swam there (rough seas) but did enjoy walking along it several times. Amazing amazing rental. Thank you for sharing it with us!

A Perfect Island Retreat

The house was perfect! It was very clean and very comfortable and well set up for cooking which we like to do. Mattresses, pillows and bedding were high quality and with the breezes coming off the ocean we slept like babies (there is AC but we never turned it on as the breeze was so heavenly.) We used the pool every single day, walked the beach and saw sea turtles. It was quiet but close to shopping and amazing restaurants in Fredricksted. We would go back in a heartbeat! Also, the host was very kind, responsive and accommodating.

Great setting and house layout!

We loved staying at Gail's house. There was plenty of room for three moms and 6 kids. We loved the setting you can hear the ocean and see the beautiful Caribbean! Each room has its own bathroom and that made it super comfortable for three families. We loved hiking down the rocks to explore the beach. Our oldest kids were 8 so we didn't swim during our February trip. Def bring your water shoes to hike down to the beach. Gail was super responsive and it was very easy renting from her and staying at the house. The pool was fantastic.

Peaceful Paradise

Host made booking fast and easy. Accommodations were perfect for my family. The home was beautiful and Host provided all essentials and more. The view is excellent. We truly enjoyed having our coffee and tea by the pool while watching the sun rise then going for walks around the property and beach. It was relaxing and breathtaken. Home is situated on a peaceful and quite area so you will have no issues with privacy, relaxing, and having fun. This home is paradise in paradise. We did not want to leave and will definitely be visiting again in the future. Thank you Gail for providing such and amazing home for guest.

Pristine views of sunrise and sunset in amazing setting

The location on Long Point allows you to enjoy both sunrises and sunsets. The almost constant trade winds and overhead fans made A/C unnecessary in all but one bedroom. I most enjoyed hearing the surf and gazing at the ocean. The house was extremely clean and orderly with all the basics including spices for cooking. Remember to pick up bottled water before arriving as the water is non potable. The bed linens and towels were clean and plentiful. We enjoyed the clean and private pool. We would have preferred less outside light (garage light very bright and shines in 1 bedroom). Beds were ok and furniture very basic. Could be more comfortable and convenient to have a bedside lamp and a table or floor lamp in the living area. It is a duplex but the neighbors were hardly seen or heard and it felt very private. We loved our stay and would definitely recommend the property for a relaxing and easy stay in a magnificent setting.

We expected more... we should have researched more

Gail was very friendly and accommodating, house was pristine and clean! I guess we needed to know more before going, hurricane Maria ripped them in Sept 2017, we went May/June 2018 and still much devastation, downed lines, FEMA still there. And there won't be any fishing if you don't bring your own everything or book a charter. Surprised that none of the kmarts had fishing poles?! No tackle shops or anything anywhere. My hubby and son were disappointed but the pool was nice and didn't see the neighbor at all! I loved climbing the huge rocks and cliff to get to ocean but you had better be careful. This house is NOT right on the beach, much brush and rocks between but peaceful, quiet and secluded GET THE JEEP, YOU WILL NEED IT... not just for the jungle either! Plus know THEY DRIVE ON THE LEFT! And get food BEFORE you land or you'll be headed right back out. We laughed a lot, scuba dived and had peace, but if you're going to fish...

The good, the bad and the ugly

Overall this is a great home. The good: the inside of the home is lovely and spacious. The inside of the home was clean and inviting. There was plenty of room for our family of 6 to spread out. It was very secluded so we didn’t have to worry about neighbors. The pool was great, the kids loved it. Home was fully stocked with essentials. Shampoo, body wash, towels, linens, fully stocked kitchen. The bad: only 1 very small tv for entire home . At least 1 more tv to keep the kids occupied would have been nice or even maybe some board games. We rode out a tropical storm so some additional inside options would have helped. The ugly: the property is at the VERY end of a dirt road that is full of pot holes, mud puddles and mud. There were a few times we were unsure if we would make into or out of the property. The property itself (the trails down to the beach) are covered in litter and glass. The beach itself which was a primary reason for booking this home was COVERED in sargassum and trash. It was very disappointing! I gave the listing a 4 because the owners can’t control the sargassum or trash but I would have liked to have known before we booked. We still had a wonderful time and had the house itself been located somewhere else it would have been phenomenal

Wonderful remote setting conveniently located to Cane Bay, Frederiksted, and Christiansted.

We had a lovely stay. As others have mentioned, The digital pictures do not do Gail's home justice. It is much roomier than I had expected. The outside lanai is very comfortable and during mid-afternoon there are areas of shade for those who might require it. Gail was very helpful/responsive to all questions, and we had no issues with the wi-fi, security, air, water or electric. The only thing I would change is the addition of a propane grill, but I do understand that the salt water would destroy one if left outside all year long. The kitchen was amply supplied with everything one needs to prepare/serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We noticed after spilling something on the tile floor on day one that it could have been cleaner. Nothing we couldn’t remedy ourselves. The gentleman next door is very quiet/friendly. No issues there. The reviews mentioned the water as non-potable, however, 2 people in our group chose to drink water from the tap without negative impact. The pool was one of the cleanest VRBO pools we have ever experienced. Something somebody else mentioned, was the state of Carlton Road. It has several speed bumps and some rough patches that require you to drive quite slow after exiting the main route. No biggy. A small price to pay for this home’s wonderful privacy. Thank you, Gail, for sharing your home with us. We are forever grateful. Warm Regards, Laura

About the host

Hosted by Gail Cerreta

Host profile image
We are New Yorker's! Winters can be brutal, however we snow ski so it helps. Boaters, scuba divers and plain old beach lovers, St Croix was a great fit! We get a feeling of total peace whenever we are in St Croix. The property is super safe which to me is important, alarm system, safety pool gate, I'm a grandma and think of these things!

Why they chose this property

We own timeshares at Hotel On The Cay in Christiansted, STX. So for the past 20 years we've vacationed on St Croix. Curiosity got the best of me and so I looked at real estate over the years and when I saw this property in 2007, it was an immediate purchase. Deciding to build a duplex 3 years ago. It's secluded with private beach, ocean breeze and spectacular views, I could not resist. One does not even have to leave the property to enjoy the day!

What makes this property unique

It is a safe, private, conveniently located property. Food shopping, restaurants, beaches for added activities and golf are minutes away!
If it's peace and quiet the property is the perfect setting. We like to do half day trips because it's hard to leave the Villa for the entire day. It has unbelievable breezes and at night the star gazing is fabulous!
