We had a wonderful week-long stay at Villa Golden Blue in March 2024. The home is on a hill with incredible views from the expansive outdoor areas. The pool was beautiful and large enough to swim laps. We enjoyed the indoor/outdoor living that was possible when we opened the huge doors on the main floor living area. There is a cross-breeze that makes air conditioning unnecessary, although we did enjoy the AC in the bedrooms at night. The house is a short 15-minute drive or so from Christensted for dining and shopping. There are also numerous restaurants and bars within a couple of minutes' drive. Most of the beaches we went to are a little drive; Rainbow Beach and Cane Bay Beach were our favorites. Our experience with the property owners and the property manager were nothing but positive. They went above and beyond to make our stay as perfect as possible. I wholeheartedly recommend Villa Golden Blue!

The house is great! It has everything you need.The views are absolutely stunning. We loved the pool and swam in it every day, despite there being an issue with the pump which was corrected. Stephanie, the property manager was very responsive. The only negative was the driveway into the house. We rented a van because we had 6 people and luggage. Really need a 4 wheel drive vehicle. Ended up parking at the end of the driveway; otherwise we'd bottom out. That said, I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

PRO's: The property itself was stunning. The views of Contessa Castle and the Carribean were unmatched. This was out second time in St Croix. The ability to have both sides of the house open for crosswinds really made it feel like indoor/outdoor living. It also allowed both sun & sunbathers to enjoy the views. The generator sure did its job when we lost power during the unusually outrageous 3 days of wind/rain that wreaked havoc across the entire Carribean this week. Even with the weather, St Croix is breathtaking from here We loved the mini fridge and the Gourmet stove in the kitchen and appreciated the beach chairs, and towels you had for us. CON's: The house is showing its age. cabinets in kitchen broken, doors knobs loose, not closing or getting stuck (had to help several times with the upstairs bathroom to get our friends out). The front door lock had a glitched that ess locked us out one night. My husband had to fix it. The outdoor hot tub and outdoor shower were not working, nor was the master bed jet tub. *There are several areas where the bricks are worn and chipped leaving a very uneven and significant trip hazard. There are soo many light switches, you have no idea what turns on what, some appear to have no use whatsoever. It would be so helpful if they could be labeled. Even after a week, I had no idea what some of them were for. *With all that being said, it didn't ruin our time there. I just thought being thorough would help others. It's hard to pick a VRBO

This property is amazing. It h has everything we needed for a wonderful family vacation. The pool was the perfect temp for nighttime swims! I guess they talked to the iguanas because they were all completely well behaved (much to our teen boy’s disappointment, lol!). The perfect location to easily get to Jack and Isaac bay, Christianstead, and point Udall. Cane bay was worth the drive, highly recommend you do that as well! This home is equipped with everything we needed. We loved the open doors and the breezes that flow through the house. The views are breathtaking. House was clean and updated. We will DEFINITELY be back. Thank you!!

It was a disappointing experience for most of us. We could have looked past most things, however communication with the owner was basic, sometimes disappointing also. Communication with the property manager became uncomfortable once threat of a tropical storm came. From there confusion set in, and caused our family another day and a half of stress and inconvenience as we had to promptly were told to find a different place to stay. No storm ever hit btw. The animals up there are a bit out of control. The iguanas took over the pool every mid day, followed by large piles of excrement. They werent afraid to swim with us, but were..There is a bird that also cqme around throughout the day and left his "tracks" behind. He was in the house daily. Also a cat, it too felt the need to zoom in long enough to get into our trash and urinate on some of our towels. I was so excited to cook meals for everyone in that beautiful kitchen, how's there is no central air in the main house and not enough breeze can come into the kitchen to cool it down enough to cook. A med size oscillating fan on the wall gave momentary relief , mildly. The back patio has several broken bricks and most all of us got a stubbed toe before it was a shoes only and watch your step scenario. The views were amazing, but I also went on to stay at 4 other VRBOs before leaving the island, and I can definitely say there is something better on stx at this price point, with same amenities.

One of the best places I have ever stayed. Quiet area, and wonderful views. Wish I was still there. The House is well stocked and maintained.

This home is everything the pictures show and then some. Really large pool, many patios to choose from to enjoy the views to the north, east and south, large bedrooms with a/c, and one of the best equipped kitchens we have experienced at a rental. The property manager, Stephanie, met us to show us to the home (private addresses are not easy to get to via google maps) and show us around. She was incredibly responsive to us via text, whether giving pointers on things to do or answering questions about the property. When the propane powering the gas range ran out, she was there within 15 minutes to switch it out. We tried a few grocery stores during our stay and found the Cost-u-less to be best suited to our needs — they are a warehouse store like Costco but also have smaller quantities of produce, dairy, and baked goods; the produce seemed better quality here than anywhere else we shopped. Duggan’s Reef, the restaurant right at the bottom of the hill near the property, is adjacent to a public beach that we didn’t discover until several days into our stay — we recommend it for a very nearby and easily accessible beach experience, complete with lounge chairs and a couple of tables. (Park by the restaurant and the well maintained walkway will take you to the beach. We had a good meal at the restaurant too — they serve dinner only and you should make a reservation a few days ahead if you can.)

What a wonderful home! The house was incredibly stocked and Sara was very responsive to all our questions. We had a fun-filled week exploring the island and enjoyed coming back to the house to relax and enjoy the incredible views. Thanks for the memories!
