Great view and location.

Three entire families, grandparents to grandchildren, totaling 10. Everything went very well. Great location. Good time was had by all.

The property was great and had everything you need. I loved being able to sit on deck and listen to the ocean!

This home is incredibly well equipped and comfortable. Our only concern was it took two people to safely pull out of motor court onto street. A mirror at the gate would help.

Just what we needed. Location was great, property, house and views beautiful. You can't beat the views from all the windows that run along the back of the house. Wes who greeted us was great. It was very hard to leave!

After a long day in the sun, the bath towels were lofty and soft on sunburnt skin. We could walk to a restaurant with a good variety. Come bedtime, We opened the patio door while the ocean lured us to sleep.

We had a great time in St. Croix. We stayed at this property for 2 weeks and our kids joined us for one week in the middle of our trip with their boyfriend/girlfriend. My daughter's boyfriend proposed to her on this trip which made it extra special. The house was spacious and had plenty of outdoor seating and was very clean. We will definitely stay here again.

This property has it all! My husband and I traveled with our college aged son, and family friends with a college aged son. We all agreed that the house was wonderful. They stayed in the pool house and enjoyed the very best views, but it is hard to complain since there are stunning water views in just about every corner of the property. It was hard to drag ourselves away for food, hiking and exploring. The pool stayed crisp enough to be refreshing but never too cold. The kitchen had everything we needed. The house was very clean and updated. We felt completely safe and felt like everything lived up to expectations. No real fishing and meh snorkeling behind house but still lovely. As with any rental, there were a few hiccups but we weren't overly troubled. There was a significant amount of garbage washed up next to the house. We cleaned it up. The pool had sand on the bottom upon our arrival but maybe that is the "hazard" of being seaside. The TVs never worked. We called and the caretaker came out twice, but the issue was never resolved. Since the weather was perfect, we did not care or press the issue. The main room A/C did not work which was only a bit of a bummer at night when we were trying to have game nights together. The room did get pretty hot at night for some reason. Still, not a big deal since the BR AC worked perfectly in all rooms. Still....I can't stop dreaming about the pelicans and the water views. I would not hesitate to return to this lovely property!

Everything was so clean! Had a great time at pool. A++++

This property was perfect! It is really well cared for, had everything you can think of and was situated in a peaceful part of the island. We have booked VRBO properties for many years and this property ranks as the very best! Truly paradise found for our family.

The house was lovely. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to cook and make cocktails. The beds were very comfortable. The swimming pool was fantastic! The location was amazing, with a perfect view of Buck Island. The house is located on the east end and it was very quiet and relaxing. The closest city to the the house is Christiansted. St Croix was just beautiful. Everyone was friendly and the sights were gorgeous and the restaurants were great. Anne, the property manager, was so very helpful from the initial booking to the last day. Wes met us at the airport and we followed him to the house where he showed us around and explained how everything worked. Whenever we return to St Croix I know our first choice would be to stay at Paradise Found.

Beautiful view and great snorkeling

Stunning view. Stay couldn’t have been any more relaxing. The east end of the island and east end marine park were amazing. Watched the sun rise over udall point every morning. Thank you!

We had a total of 9 family members and the house and grounds were perfect for our needs. We used both the main and guest house and had ample room to spread out both inside and outside. Plenty of room to have everyone together inside the house or in one of the many outside sitting areas, while also room to get away when any of us wanted a bit of solitude. The furnishings and kitchenware were all top notch. Plenty of plastic cups to bring out by the pool and great appliances. We spend time cooking at home but also got a couple meals from the great restaurant right across the road. Full size grill was great as I love to cook out. Bring water shoes so you can snorkel right off the beach. Sandy beaches can be found a short drive away (less than 5 minutes) in either direction. Communication was easy and all instructions were clear. I would love to return to this rental when I next spend time on the island. The only thing missing would be some beach chairs and a small cooler or two for outings, but that is nitpicking as all members of our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful house beautiful view five minutes to sandy beaches well-stocked kitchen great beds and every bedroom has its own bathroom would highly recommend this house and ,Wes was very nice to deal with .we love our time here!!!

Stayed over Christmas holidays with extended family, using both houses. Most everything worked fine (had to have propane tank replaced, but Wes was right on it; and never did get any TV in the guest house, but then we really weren't there for TV). Kitchen was well stocked with utensils, etc. and some non-perishables. Short drive to Seaside Market for supplies. Rooms, beds, A/C, etc. all great when we needed them. Pool was refreshing, but did suffer just a bit from dirt blowing in, probably sand from Buck Island. Resident iguanas were pretty comfortable with us there. Location on north side of East End is convenient to most everything expect Frederiksted, and even that is only 30-45 min. drive. Probably the best part of Paradise Lost is that ocean and Buck Island view! We sat mesmerized taking it in. No beach onsite, but one just down the road, and waterfront is more rocky, did not try to swim or snorkel it. Still, would definitely recommend the house, along with Anne at St. Croix Rent a Villa, including her car rental arrangements and thoughts and resources for all of our trip needs while on island.

Paradise Found is more like a private, family compound then a house. There is plenty of space for the family to spread out, but lots of common areas for everyone to hangout together. The best bedrooms with views are in the guest/pool house, but the view from the master bedroom in the main house is wonderful too. The beach in front of the house is not too sandy and the water in front is a bit too shallow to swim in, but the pool, view, and sound of the water more than makes up for it. The Buccaneer Resort is minutes away by car, and they have a lovely beach with a restaurant that’s open to the public. There is a nice restaurant, Blue Water Terrace, right across the street from this beautiful home as well. My whole family highly recommends this property to everyone!

We brought our family here to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary... There were 10 of us....ages 69-9.. This was one of the best vacations we have ever been on and Paradise Found was definitely the best location for our family. Plenty of Room...Beautiful...and the key word would be RELAXING! It had everything we could possible need. We put one family in the pool house and the rest of us in the main house. No one wanted to leave and I am sure we will all be back. Thank you for this "Little Piece of Heaven"

We absolutely loved Paradise Found, so aptly named! First, our greeter, Wes, was extremely patient with the slow process of getting our cars….seems everyone who arrived rented one. He was also so helpful in telling us all about the house and places to go. We asked him questions throughout the week, via text, and he was always prompt and helpful in answering us. The house and pool house met our needs to a T. With 7 adults in our party, it still had plenty of space and had all the basics. The kitchen was well stocked with plates, flatware, drinking cups, spices, etc. The view from the pool, deck, and living room was gorgeous and peaceful, some days we just hung out at the house/pool and enjoyed the scenery. The couple who stayed in the pool house had a view of the ocean from their bed, the best on the property. There was plenty to do in the area and we took full advantage of shopping, dining out and the young adults went on the snorkeling tour of Buck Island. They had a wonderful time, even though it was rough seas that day (Christmas winds, they say). Beaches nearby were great, and we explored the beaches on the West End as well, which were spectacular. Dining choices were abundant, and we especially enjoyed Duggans just down the road. It offered small, medium and large lobster, locally caught, and was some of the best lobster we’ve ever had. There were plenty of other choices on the menu as well, including fresh tuna that was cooked to perfection. Ziggy’s was a frequent haunt of ours, since they have a bit of everything including great Cuban sandwiches, Chicago style hot dogs with a twist, and great pulled pork sandwiches along with groceries, gas and adult beverages. The owners are great guys! Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer. Our Paradise for the week was just what we needed!

My husband and my two kids aged 9 and 6 spent Thanksgiving at the main house for 9 nights. Our friends and their son stayed in the guest house for four nights. We had a great time. When we arrived I noticed there were a lot of bugs crawling in kitchen and the counters, glasses and plates weren't clean. It is an island and this is a rental so that didn't seem so far fetched and we found bug spray. We didn't have paper towels though and since it was the evening and we had had a red eye the night before we decided to wait on going to the store. There were plenty of hand towels to tidy up with. A few of the pools tiles had fallen out and my son cut his foot- still we had a wonderful time at the house. When we left we did the clean up required in the handbook. Dishes loaded and started. When we left, I put dirty towels in the laundry closet. Besides that I didn't think I needed to actually do laundry or straighten up the couch pillows. We needed up not getting our full deposit back- according to the house cleaner the kitchen counter was dirty and there was a stain on the counter that took 45 mins to clean... it is a tile counter and we made two dinners the whole time- no way anything stained the counter. I thought we paid for housecleaning? We have stayed at least 10-15 VRBO properties and have never had a cent held back from our deposit. All in all I would still recommend the property- just beware of the housecleaners not telling the truth.

Pictures don't do this house justice. Much bigger than expected, very big property, airy, super clean and very well stocked/equipped. Right on the water! 2 mins away from yacht club where you can charter a sail boat to take you to Buck island, which has white sand beaches and snorkeling. Across the street from a very nice local restaurant, 15 mins away from the historic Christiansted. The house is very baby/toddler friendly which was a huge thing for us. We asked if they had a pack and play and sure enough there was one parked right at the foot of our master bed when we arrived all ready for us to use. THE POOL! So incredibly safe, raised edge so no need for an unsightly safety gate, one half of it is a soaking pool, only a foot or so deep, which doubles as a kiddie pool... How perfect is that? There are two coconut trees on the property, and if you're lucky, couple coconuts will fall down for you to enjoy. We got two, so juicy and so special to eat fresh. We saw a lot of island reviews stating that it isn't very safe, I found this to be very untrue. Never felt unsafe while roaming the island, locals were very nice, and I even forgot my purse in a restaurant across the street, didn't realize until very late at night, and the next day (July 4th, it was closed) my husband walked over there just to see if somebody was there, and the waiter (Tim) sat there waiting for us on his day off to give back the purse. We were floored. Would definitely visit again! (Fun fact: our 1 year old started walking in this house, we will never forget this vacation)

Today is my first day back at work after leaving Paradise Found and I already miss it. There were 9 of us and everyone said it wsa more than enough space to stretch out and not be crowded. The house is fully equipped with everything (sometimes 2). We used all 5 bedrooms and the view from the upstairs was the best but the entire house was just beautiful. The pool was awesome and we did a little snorkeling (you can rent snorkel gear from Chenay Bay) right from the house. Wes met us at the airport and we followed him to the house, we wouldn't have found it otherwise, but after that we were able to get around the island just fine. We did all of our grocery shopping at Plaza Extra East and the prices for some items were completely terrible. Some of the fresh fruit and veggies prices may have been a little high. We also ate at Blue Water Terrace the first night because we didn't have any groceries yet, very delicious. We did the snuca (snokerling/scuba - Aquaman) as well as the clear kayak night tour at Chenay Bay (Barefoot Pirates -- also has a sno cone on the boardwalk). We drove to the most easternpoint - Point Udall - for a few pictures. It's only about 15 minutes away so it's a quick trip. There are mosquitoes and these things they call "can't see um's" that will bite you so just make sure that you have some bug repellent close by. This is the off season so many shops were closed. We drove to Fredericksted and ate at Turtle's deli (go there, it's worth it) but no shops were really open because there weren't any cruise ships in. We love going to places when it's not that crowded even if most of the stores are closed. We did our own drive through the "rain forest" and around the rest of the island. We never felt as if we weren't safe while we were there. If you go to any city or even at your house, just use common sense when traveling around (don't leave valuables in your car and lock your doors). Even though it is the US, the drive on the opposite side. Luckily, my husband lived in Japan for a while and was familiar with that because it can seem a little confusing with the turns. There was just a ton of relaxing and enjoying family on this vacation. This place is worth every penny for the views and space. It really is Paradise Found.

We owned a condo on island for 8 years. We sold it 3 years ago and this was my choice of a destination with kids and grandkids for my 60th birthday. We know the island well and prefer the east end. The house, pool, and grounds worked out fervently for 6 adults, 2-4 year old grandsons and an 8 week old granddaughter. We stayed almost 3 weeks and the kids just over a week. We chose to save $ and not rent the guest house but put the boys on the floor. There are 3 packnplays at the house for babies. The kitchen is incredibly equipped! The pool is perfect for adults and children. Buy some noodles for the pool. The only thing missing are beach chairs and umbrella to take to other beaches. The blue water terrace is right across the street and super handy if you don't want to cook. We had takeout pizzas for our arrival night. The house has reverse osmosis for the cistern water so my sensitive stomach had no problems with the water. A very comfortable and first class homes with plenty of books and games fo the infrequent rainy spell.

We spent one fabulous week at Paradise Found. 7 adults, 4 kids (ages 2 - 11). Plenty of space for everyone to relax together and have quiet time alone. Elevated pool was an ideal safety feature for our 2 year old. Striking view of the water and Buck Island. Highly recommend.

The house and grounds were beautiful and expertly maintained. The common areas were spacious and perfect for gathering, both inside and out. The amenities, down to a small 'library' went beyond our expectations. Thank you to the owners for sharing their special home.

We loved everything about the property; we used all five bedrooms and loved the privacy afforded here. The house was clean and well provisioned; we received good service from the property manager. The Tan-Tan Tour was the favorite of our group; liked the beaches at Chenay Bay and the Buccaneer and the Pirate Buffet with floor show at the Carambola Resort. I would stay here again and would recommend it to my friends. The location on the East End of the island was great.

We loved our private pool and ocean access! Very clean and decorated beautifully.

After a very busy summer and saying good bye to kids going back to University a return trip to "Paradise Found" was just what was needed. This was our third trip back and every time we visit there is always a surprise. The owners take such great care of the property, the house is so clean, gardens well maintained, always a pleasure. The beach, it's like having your own private villa by the water because nobody can see it, it's so hidden, just us and the pelicans :-) our little bit of heaven. Thank you form sharing your beautiful home with us again. See you next year, the Ryder Family :-)

We finally all got our schedules in sync so we could have that long awaited family celebration. All we needed now was the home to suit all our desires. "Paradise Found" as the house is aptly named was just that. The home looked perfect when we saw it on line, but we were just not prepared for what we really had booked... It is simply the perfect home for large or a small group. With the Caribbean sea and an abundance of space exterior as well as interior. With Red Hibiscucs, Ginger, and Bird of Paradise blooming throughout as we entered the property, we were in love, then all the beautiful furnishings, with plenty of towels, linens,outdoor furniture, the pool. My Dad was so overwhelmed to have his surprise 80th birthday celebrated in this home he wants to make this an annual event which we all agree. Thank you Anne for helping us while we searched for the perfect home for our family. Some of us walked down the beach and took kite surfing lessons, while the smaller guests snorkeled or picked shells. The older ones just lolled in the hammock with books. There was a nearby restaurant which was our go-to almost each day with a great menu. Buck Island directly in front of house, beckoned us every day until we chartered a catamaran packed a picnic then spent a day there. Tom, at Savant Restaurant in Christiansted was so accommodating in helping and making our celebration so wonderful. This was for our family the most memorable vacation we have ever had. We do plan on coming back to "Paradise Found" and relieving the experience again, Thank you so much, 80 years never looked so good!
