We had a multi-family reunion (8 people) and stayed at this property for a week.
Pros: Split level with living, kitchen, bath, bedrooms located on both. Washer/dryer also on both levels so you could honestly have 2 separate families that share the pool. Internet was surprisingly good for basic stuff. Beds were very comfortable. A/C was good and strong, plus there are multiple ceiling fans. Pool was refreshing. The view was gorgeous from the living room looking right out to Buck Island. Lots of games, books, chairs and other amenities. We loved using the Ninja blender to make mango smoothies with fresh from the tree mangos. Communication with the property owner is best done via call/text rather than with VRBO message.
Cons: There were a few minor issues. The pool lost about a foot of water after the first day or so. Not sure if it was due to the heat. One of the lower level showers had a shower curtain that didn't extend all the way, so that bathroom would flood when using the shower. Luckily there are 3 other so after that was discovered we just avoided that one. Some of the house fixtures could use a little TLC (honestly not a huge deal).
Overall I would give this property a solid B+

The property was amazing perfect for families , the layout made it super easy to separate the adults without children . We loved the sunrises from the dual balconies and the amazing view of buck island. The host was super attentive to any issues , we had none ! His food and beach recommendations was the icing on the cake !! Definitely recommend this property for large groups!!

Beautiful home and a fantastic view. The house needs some small fixing on the first floor and the pool but everything else was great.

Our family of 12 enjoyed our stay at your property for 8 nights. We did like the goat farm next door which provided an added plus to the outstanding view from the morning sun to the evening sunset. Top notch sunsets. We recommend giving your door sliders some attention so that they can open easily. Kitchen was stocked better than expected. Mike was most attentive when we had a few issues that needed attention. Quick to respond. Thank you for the spare bed which helped make 12 people more comfortable. A memorable vacation.

This lovely, spacious home was perfect for our large party of family and friends. The two levels of the home worked really well for our needs - our friends with the infant were able to have quiet downstairs when needed while the rest of our party could visit, swim, etc. Erin and Mike were more than helpful and accommodating. We highly recommend Mike’s gorgeous catamaran for a 1/2 day of sailing and snorkeling. (Sandy Toes Sailing.) Everything really exceeded our expectations.

Pros: kitchen well stocked, comfortable beds, beautiful view, plenty of space for entire family.
Con: barking dogs next door. Quiet and sweet during the day, but barked all night. Came onto our porch during the night and barked. Tried to come in the house when we tried to shoo it away. Had to create a barrier with porch chairs. Sleep deprivation put a damper on the trip.
The owners were responsive and communicated with the neighbors to try to solve the problem. Hopefully they can find a solution because they seem to truly care about their guests having a good experience and it’s an unfortunate problem to have!

beautiful house with a beautiful view - loved the neighborhood dog, Rocky, that came to visit at sundown every night -- recommend ear plugs if you want to sleep in due to the goats and dogs next door lol - DEF rent a car ahead of time and make restaurant reservations ahead of time -- plan to have groceries in house if you don't dine out as food delivery was a very long wait - home owners left very accommodating information

Our family of 10 enjoyed our stay at Whispering Palms Villa. Located on the quiet east end of the island there was more than enough room for all of us. The house was clean and had the typical house hold supplies you would need for a week long visit. They also supplied you with everything you need to visit the many beaches St. Croix (towels, coolers, toys, snorkeling gear). We started every morning having coffee on the balcony looking out over the stunning view of Buck Island.
Mike and Erin were courteous host and communicated before our trip with recommendations while visiting. During the trip they also communicated when they would be stopping by to check on the pool and/or grab trash.
Our family was able to take advantage of their discount to sail with them for a day and were not disappointed. Would highly recommend if able.
We would definitely stay again!
Thanks for everything Mike and Erin!

Our extended family of 11 had a wonderful time at Mike and Erin's house. Each level has 3 bedrooms / 2 baths, kitchen and living room. Add in the large balconies and there's plenty of room for a big group to stay together, but not be on top of each other. We had a couple of issues arise during our week long stay, but the hosts were very prompt to respond and remedy the situation. Thank you, Mike and Erin, for providing such a comfortable place for our holiday get away!

Booked for 4 nights for 6 adults (myself, my wife, and 4 members of our wedding party) during the week of our wedding.
What can I say about our stay here? It was wonderful, and Mike and Erin were fantastic hosts.
This home is truly beautiful, and among my favorite that I've stayed in through many visits to St. Croix.
It's in a very convenient location that allows for a very short drive to a large number of the island's many wonderful places to visit. Additionally, the house is set back a short way from the road and nearby neighbors, which gives a fantastic sense of privacy.
The fact that the house has two kitchens made it exceptionally easy to cook for our large group, and each floor felt spacious enough for our entire group to spend time together, though we spent the majority of our time on the deck or in the pool.
We had one small hiccup getting the lock to the upstairs entrance to unlock at check-in, but Mike was exceptionally quick to respond to a message, and personally came down right away to make sure the lock was working correctly.
Overall, we absolutely loved our stay, and we would absolutely recommend this beautiful house as a rental if you're visiting the island.

There are not enough superlatives for this property. It was beautiful, quiet, comfortable, well-appointed and afforded everyone room and privacy, and space to eat and play games together. The pool was serviced daily, and any questions about local places or to-do items were easily asked of our hosts. This was the perfect spot for our group of 10!

The property was private enough to make you feel like only a few others existed, but close enough to the action.
The house is clean,spacious, and absolutely gorgeous.
Our host Erin is incredible. She was on point for our every need, and went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable.

Beautiful, lovely, well stocked. Looking out the Caribbean Sea - the most awesome daily views ever.
Well stocked house and clean. Lots of room for everyone. Please be aware that you will need a car or a driver because of the rugged terrain.

House was great, beautiful views of Buck Island. We had a few issues that are not unexpected when staying on the island and Mike and Erin were very responsive and accommodating. I would definitely recommend staying here.

My parents were celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary and we surprised them with a week in St. Croix. After spending many hours googling and researching places to stay that would accommodate our party of 12 (age ranges from 18-75) we decided on Whispering Palms in Cotton Valley. The house was exactly as listed and our hosts Erin and Mike were great! The email they sent us about the island was super helpful and I found myself checking their information often! The house itself was super equipped and spotless! We had an issue with a leak in the bathroom and Mike was responsive and took care of it immediately! They were even gracious enough to let us stay longer than anticipated because our travel plans were delayed due to weather conditions back home. It’s important to know that you’re on the side of a mountain and the driveway is steep. The bottom part is not paved and is a little bumpy but thats to be expected and you can’t get these views otherwise! We watched the sun rise and the moon set almost daily! You’re close to Ziggys and Point Udall and about 15 minutes away from downtown Christiansted. I would highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a quiet, relaxing place for a large group! We’re already planning our trip back!

We had the best time staying in this home! The yard was nice and big for our kids..we played bags everyday! There was plenty of room for 6 adults and 3 children (3 separate families). The lower level was nice to be able to split up when we needed to. It is not connected to the upper level, but wasn't a big deal for us. The homeowner, Erin, gave detailed instructions to the residence and also a document giving us restaurant and activity details (names of restaurants, beaches, how to get around). Erin replied so quickly whenever there was a problem or question. We also used their sailing services one morning. If you have a chance to do so, we highly recommend it-book with Sandy Toes Sailing! The house is older, so there were a few problems that go with that, but nothing that made our stay a deal breaker or made it a problem to stay there. If we needed help, an answer was given quickly and efficiently. The house and views were as pictured. The view off the balconies (there are 2!) were absolutely breathtaking! If we get a chance, we would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thanks for a great vacation!

Great location. Quiet area of the island. Close to Ziggy's, Castaways, and Point UDall. Love the split occupancy for privacy when traveling with adult children. We had our privacy, kitchen, and the girls had space too. Erin and Mike are responsive to any issue too. Oh! Check out their sailing options!!!

We had a wonderful time on St. Croix. The house has an incredible view, including Buck Island, and it is well equipped for a family stay. We would definitely stay here again. The owners were attentive and easy to communicate with, too. The only information a future tenant should know is the driveway is gravel, so a jeep is the preferred vehicle during your stay.

The property is beautiful and has everything you need to enjoy and relax. Mike and Erin were super easy to communicate with and are so friendly! I highly recommend staying here if you have the opportunity to! Our family had a wonderful time. We did a lot of cooking/lounging by the pool. The morning views are perfect and the stars at night are stunning. Some of our favorite beaches - Shoy and Jack Issac are only about 10 min drive.
The road to the house is a little bumpy but we got used it!
Thanks again !

Well equipped, loved that paper supplies, detergents, spices, etc. were all there. So nice not to have to buy and trash within a few days. Roombas throughout - nice touch. The first day we woke, we were stunned by the view. It is so much better than even the pictures. Nice that two families were separated by floors, but still in the same house.
Some small issue were TV (not a huge deal since we weren't there for TV). There was a bit of a learning curve for the lights. :)
Overall, we all enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back again!
Thank you for all your communication and suggestions!!!

We had an amazing time at the house; the house is well equipped with everything needed. The view is priceless. The host was very easy to get in touch with and came to the house when needed. Our stay was extended 2 days due a tropical storm - the host understood and allowed us to stay. Staying here you will not be disappointed.

Myself and a group of friends went down and ended up having a fantastic time at this house. We loved how private the space was, as well as having so many rooms. Overall cleanliness was great, and the house had everything we needed from laundry detergent to plenty of towels. Will be recommending this property to everyone!

Mike and Erin have graced us with this beautiful home! The home was everything it said in the post but yet so much more. The views are simply breathtaking! We had 5 children and 4 adults and it truly was a dream! The location was perfect (we prefer the east end of the island. Communication from them was top notch.. even with them being away sailing! I was super impressed with that aspect. We had a flight delay and without hesitation they were willing to work with us. I would recommend this home to anyone (and will)! We can’t wait to come back! Thank you Mike and Erin for opening your home to our family!

Great house with beautiful views. House was very clean and well stocked with condiments, cooking equipment and cleaning supplies as well as plenty of beach towels-all those things that are a burden to bring when you are traveling to an island. Pool was sparkling clean. Owner was very responsive to questions both before we arrived and when we were in St Croix.

Amazing family trip to St. Croix!!
The house is super clean with amazing panoramic views from both porches! The pool was an absolute bonus. There was plenty of room for our large family group of kids and adults. Loved staying on this side of the island!!
Erin and Mike are incredible hosts!!! They were quickly available for to answer all of our questions (and there were a lot since it was our first visit!). Very knowledgeable about the island and gave us great recommendations on beaches, restaurants, and activities. We had the best time exploring the island! Highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a fun, relaxing trip to St. Croix 😊

Family Vacation
The accommodations were perfect for multiple families or a large family with children. There was a pool for the kids to play and plenty of space. The highlight were the spaciousness, the pool, the incredible view of Buck Island and at least this time of year the tropical breeze. We would definitely say there again.
