About this property
Walk or Snorkel To 6 Beaches & The Baths
On land littered with elephantine boulders, rustling palm trees, and glorious gardens, Crosswinds Villa is a fully furnished, two bedroom classic Caribbean bungalow just a four-minute walk from the beach at Spring Bay. Simply relax and enjoy the views of Sir Francis Drake Channel from the 1,000 Sq. foot deck, or bathe in the turquoise water along the white sand beaches of Spring Bay, Spring Bay National Park, Little Trunk Bay, Valley Trunk Bay, The Baths and Devil's Bay.....all within walking or snorkeling distance.
The 1,000 Sq. ft. deck is Caribbean living at its best. Partially covered, affording lots of sun and shade places, the west-facing deck is furnished with living room furniture, dining table for 6-10, a large gas grill, chaise lounges, rocking chairs and a spacious hammock. It is all surrounded by potted plants, lush gardens, coconut palm trees, panoramic views, spectacular sunsets, and privacy
Specifically built across the prevailing tradewinds, Crosswinds Villa enjoys natural air conditioning regulated by ample louvered windows on all sides of the house. The cathedral ceilings add to an especially airy feeling. The center of the 1,600 square foot villa is an open living/kitchen/dining area, while two of the en-suite bedrooms are located at opposite ends of the house. A 14' opening to the 1,000 square foot deck pleasantly blurs the lines between inside and outside.
The two bedrooms have screened, louvered windows on 3 sides, allowing these rooms to take full advantage of the Caribbean Tradewinds, rustling palms and balmy nights. Each has its own bathroom with oversize shower, as well as plenty of closet and shelf space. One bedroom has a large table and chair for those not able to leave the laptop at home. The other bedroom has a chair and ottoman for those who can! The tiled bathrooms are difficult to photograph without knocking a wall down but both are of an appropriate size, have modern fixtures and most important, are as clean as a whistle.
A word about your deposit....While we require a non refundable 50% deposit upon reservation, the deposit would surely and gladly be returned if we are able to rent the same time you must give up. As with everything else concerning Crosswinds, we do our best to meet the needs and satisfaction of our guests.

About the host
Hosted by Chip McLaughlin
Lifelong New Englanders and world travelers, we split our time between the coast of Rhode Island and Virgin Gorda as well as hoping to discover a new destination or two each year. We chose to spend five months a year in Virgin Gorda after experiencing the perfectly warm water, clean uncrowded beaches, great snorkeling, personal safety and a welcoming local population. Virgin Gorda is constantly improving both through government guidance and visitors appreciation of its unique benefits. The small island has ended our search for the best place to spend every winter.
Why they chose this property
We purchased Crosswinds in Virgin Gorda after vacationing here for nine consecutive years. Originally a 1600 foot house with a rental of 1,000 sq ft on the second floor and a small wooden deck. The experience of our renting led us to create the vacation rental we always wished for. We added a 1,000 square-foot deck to the second floor with equal amounts of covered and sun-filled spaces, an over-equipped kitchen, upscale furnishings, an outdoor living and dining room, lots of potted tropical plants, a great gas grill, and a sizeable Brookstone hammock for reading! Crosswinds is a home rather than a hotel or business. Located in a private enclave of 10 homes, the third house back from Spring Bay, its privacy is assured in a four-acre garden setting. Spring Bay Beach is a white sand beach; the water is crystal clear, warm and always refreshing Given the tiny population and stable, well-run government, your personal safety is unmatched in the Caribbean. So stroll about to beaches, beach bars, local and tourist restaurants. Live unguarded and have fun!
What makes this property unique
Everything in Virgin Gorda revolves around the water and beaches. Leave the golf clubs home and forget about gambling. Plan on snorkeling, swimming, bobbing with a noodle and relaxing by the water all day. There are ample opportunities to explore other islands for the day or half the day on a variety of sail and motor boats. Rent a car and explore a large number of beaches, snorkeling spots, hiking and natural beauty. Take advantage of the high-end spas and resorts though you will then be glad you have Spring Bay and her sunsets to return to.
