Excellent all round experience

We loved the house and our days at the carnival!

Recently had the pleasure of staying at this property in early March for our first ever trip to the Caribbean. We didn't want to do the whole resort thing and chose this lovely villa based on its location, character, and reviews. We couldn't have been happier. Sandy, the property manager, met us at the airport and accompanied us to the home to make sure we got settled and knew about the house. She was also available through text when my admittedly feeble tech skills kept me off the wifi until she quickly resolved it for me. The house is wonderful. After eating out our first night, we cooked our dinners ourselves in a kitchen that is better than the one I have at home. We slept beautifully and had coffee on the deck every morning. (And every evening for sunset.) We spent our days on the beach (spectacular) and walked into town a couple nights to see the pier and just explore. Despite it being dark and us not knowing the area, we never felt unsafe. On the contrary, it was striking how nice everyone is. Only with that decency could spread like Covid. Sid called on our last day to check on our stay and while I did miss his call, I emailed him to let him know that we had a great stay. Take the positive reviews here to heart - this is a gem.

Stupendous home with beautiful view of the ocean from the upstairs deck, all the amenities one would want, and an incredibly helpful and welcoming manager and owner. We not only shared information with our friends who are looking to visit St. Croix, but hoping to come back again ourselves.

This is a beautiful property. It's well taken care of and everything you could possibly need is provided. We hope to stay there again in the future.

The house and the grounds are absolutely beautiful, although the town itself is still recovering from what looks to be hurricane damage. Many shops and restaurants are still closed, but the handful of restaurants that are open are very good. The beach at SandCastle resort is AMAZING!! Best of all was the property manager, Sandi, who assisted us with a rental car when the airport location was out of vehicles. She took us to the location off site and ensured we knew where everything was, from grocery stores, to beaches, etc. I would definitely stay here again!!

Stayed here before for 20 days and it was nice, this time stayed for 28 days and will never return! 1) The owner kicked us out for the 1st 2 days after we booked it 9 months in advance for him to use it himself. 2) The place was crud-covered and caked with dust. 3) The compressor on the air conditioner was going out and so loud you could not use the upper deck, it sounded like bomb sirens from the lower deck, and it sounded like airplanes taking off from the master bedroom. It took 18 days to get this fixed. This lovely house has not been taken care of.

The villa was stunning and very luxurious. The terrace on the second floor was lovely with a water view. Honni Edwards was excellent as the property manager.

Nice character and well maintained Enjoyed the outside deck to see the water, ships and sunset Proximity to town and pier and beach was great

We stayed in the home for 20 nights. Overall beautiful home and great location! Just a few problems. 1st if you come in on a late flight make sure you pack water and/or drinks. The island closes after 10pm and we had nothing to drink until the stores opened the next day! I would suggest the owner make sure and leave a few bottles of water for the guests. Other problems were the water - one day we had brown water from the city but several days we were out of water for the shower and kitchen because we ran out of propane! It took the property manager several days to get it taken care of. Property manager is also hard to reach if there is a problem. As long as you know about the water issues I would definitely stay there again!

The balcony was fantastic. Perfect for enjoying coffee. Everything necessary was available. The house has a very lovely atmosphere.

Work in progress. House is complete, very beautiful and well equipped. Would’ve been nice to have small portable beach chairs. Outside work is still being done. Ladders everywhere, plants still being planted. Location is perfect, easy walk to bars restaurants and best of all the beaches. Very relaxing laid back atmosphere.

our trip was a delight, we had everything we needed at the house. a nice greeting at the airport was very helpful to get a quick orientation. the location of the house aloud us to walk to most anything.

Very comfortable, spacious, and well furnished historic mansion in Frederiksted town. Good location if you are looking to be on the West End of the Island which has some good beaches and the pier the cruise ships generally use.

Loved staying at the property, it looks just as good in person. Enjoyed being in Fredericksted and going to the great beaches everyday. The house has everything you may need for the beach, cooking, etc. The property manager Sandra was lovely as well and greeted us at the airport to guide us to the house.

I arrived on St. Croix for an extended business assignment. I was very pleasantly surprised to find this house available. I rented for 4 weeks and really enjoyed coming "home" to such a well appointed and wonderfully renovated house. After a long day working, the yellow house on the hill was a welcome sight. My needs for my trip to St. Croix were simple -- I wanted a quiet place to relax in the evenings and I wanted to cook for most of my meals. The kitchen is HUGE and included everything I needed. There's a grill outside that I used frequently as well. As for relaxing, the master bedroom is a nice space for reading, watching a little tv or luxuriating on the king sized bed. The deck is just off the master bedroom and is a pleasant space to relax after the sun has set. I had a couple of minor problems while I was staying. The microwave in the kitchen didn't work. The touchpad wouldn't respond to any input which rendered a professional quality appliance unuseable. I let the property manager and owner know about the micro. My experience is that appliance computer controls often have trouble with poorly regulated power (brown-outs). So for my time there, I cooked the "old fashioned" way -- using the stove and the grill! Also while I was there, the TV in the living room stopped displaying a picture. The property manager, her husband and I all tried our hand at solving the problem but never figured it out. I wasn't too worried about not having TV as I could watch in the master bedroom if I wanted. The owner was aplogetic about the TV and refunded me $100 for the trouble. I thought that gesture was very kind and unexpected. As I write this review, I'm still on the island and can say that my stay in Fredricksted was terrific. There's plenty of space and the layout is very functional and welcoming. With 2 master suites, this would be a great place for 2 couples to share. I would stay again, anytime.

This house was built in 1802 and the owners painstakingly restored it to better than original condition. They did a fantastic job. It is very comfortable and feels like a home, not a house. The neighborhood is quiet and a short walk to the boardwalk. The neighbors are friendly, the restaurants are good although not many have re-opend yet. The microwave was broken and the tv in the living room was also. The management company is pretty attentive so I'm sure they will be fixed by your arrival. I left coffee and sugar but don't use the tap water! Use the refrigerator water or buy bottled water.

We were able to show it to friends on the island who will definitely be checking on it for visitors! We will be back and would stay here again. We were not able to get air the first two days. We were not told we had to open the remote to set the mode! Also could not get the microwave to work! Overall it was a perfect place to stay for everything we had to do for Sir David’s celebration of Life weekend! Thank you for such a great place to stay!!

The house has been beautifully restored to make for a luxurious and comfortable stay. There are many outdoor spaces to relax, grill or just watch the sun set over the water. The furnishings are thoughtfully chosen and beautifully arranged. The kitchen is stunning with room for the whole family. Located in the heart of Frederiksted, it is walking distance to the water, historic sites and lots of restaurants. Also, convenient for scuba divers with several dive shops and boats. The owners were a dream to work with and provided loads of information about the house and surrounding neighborhood. Would highly recommend!
