The Sea Breeze was everything and more that we expected. A full compliment of cooking utensils, disposal bags, water in the fridge, beach towels, sunscreen and even floaty tubes for the ocean. I will definitely rent again when returning to St. Croix.

Owner response:Very glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and that our condo was all you expected and more. We would love to have you back again. Thank you

Fabulous Vacation

My husband and I have been visiting St. Croix for the past six years and this year was without a doubt the best week we have spent there and all because we stayed at Seabreeze. The property is all that the listing reflects plus much more. Eric was so helpful and nice even before we rented the condo. We absolutely loved having breakfast on the veranda. With just 48' from the ocean, we could not have asked for a more romantic place. We spent more time at the condo than we would normally because of the beauty and privacy of the property. There is no way we will go back to St. Croix unless we can stay at Seabreeze. Thanks Eric for a wonderful vacation at your condo. St. Croix is the most friendly and lovely place to visit.

Owner response:WOW... We usually ask and answer a lot of questions before someone rents and actually gets to our condo. But we did not know that this couple had been to St Croix 6 times before. Reading this review makes me so proud of the effort and attention we put into our property and to the local crew we use to set up the condo for our guests. Thank you for visiting St Croix and staying at the SeaBreeze in Frederiksted

More Than We Could Have Imagined

The location of the condo alone was perfectly placed. We had all sorts of activities to engage in within walking distance of the place. The condo itself, thankfully, provided all sorts of amenities and even had items available for use that we, ourselves, hadn't even thought to bring along. Having a kitchen was wonderful in that we were able to walk over to a nearby store and pick up some things to cook so that we weren't eating out the entire time and thereby saved a little money. And last but most certainly not least, having the ocean right there in our backyard, literally, was like a dream come true! We were able to go snorkeling jet skiing, barbecue and sometimes just enjoy a nice glass of wine right there at that beautiful ocean. The view alone was absolutely priceless. My husband and I enjoyed ourselves immensely and can not wait until we get to go back!

We Had A Wonderful Week

Hi Eric, We had a wonderful week! You have been so helpful throughout the process. The information and photos on VRBO were accurate, and the info you provided before the trip as well as the book and the info in the condo were quite helpful. The amenities that you provide for your guests are far more than could ever be expected. We actually came with most of what we needed, but it was nice to know that if we had forgotten something, that it was right there for us. What we most loved was just sitting out on the porch looking out onto the ocean... very calm and peaceful, just what we were looking for. Mark was very happy diving with N2 the Blue. Thank you so much to you and Karla! Your island home is lovely and we hope to return someday! We will also recommend to our friends. Best regards, Judy and Mark Princeton Junction NJ

This was our first time to the Island and was a bit nervous about choosing a place. Happy to say we made an excellent choice! This was our favorite side of the island. The condo is set up with everything needed to make a great stay. Thanks for the insulated mugs! we used them so much we wore the writing off...the highlight for us was being able to snorkel right out the front and we had the beach to ourselves almost every day. We did a lot of night snorkeling too and saw an Octopus along with Rays, Turtles, and so many cool fish. Eric was extremely helpful in answering questions we had and available by phone when we locked ourselves out..:) The only down side was the traffic noise if you like to sleep in. The shutters don't provide much for keeping noise out. Thank You so much for a great stay..We will be back!!!!

Owner response:Thanks Dan and Jill, we agree the West End of St Croix is by far the best end. So much to do and see in and out of the water and most is within a few miles of the SeaBreeze. 3 beach bar restaurants within walking distance as well as the town of Frederiksted. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and found the SeaBreeze accommodating

Exceptional place to stay, with the beach, and water only steps away!

This is our third stay here, and we returned again this year - even after being on island last year during a hurricane. The property owner continues to make improvements, and the place is very well taken care. It was once again very clean, and equipped with everything that we needed. There is a permanent barbeque grill right out front. Nothing beats cooking steaks or Mahi -Mahi on the grill, as you stare at sun slowly sinking towards the water. Once ready, dinners are enjoyed right on the large porch as the sun sets. There are fans above the table, so you are cool, comfortable, and free of any flying insects. The bed is exceptional, and shows no signs of being slept on. We plan to return, and will definitely recommend this property to people we come in contact with!

Owner response:We are very happy to have repeat guests, they seem to enjoy the property and its location and get to know the ins and outs of the area. This coupe especially treats our condo as if it was there own when they stay and those are the guests that we hope will return again

Excellent Location

We loved this condo and it's location. The owners had everything we needed and it was easy to find. The condo has a good floorplan and uses the space to it's best advantage. We were RIGHT on the beach! We ate breakfast on the beach side porch every morning. That was after the great nights sleep we had on the king sized Tempur Pedic bed! We would recommend this to any couple looking for a beach condo with snorkeling right outside. There were fun places to go eat/drink and the diving and snorkeling at the Frederiksted pier were awesome!

Owner response:Our crew at the SeaBreeze works very hard to make each guest feel as at home as possible knowing they can come from all corners of the globe. Knowing that our guests appreciate what we do makes it all worth while. And knowing that they enjoyed their experiences on the Island of St Croix is extra nice. Thank you

SeaBreeze Vacation

Guest: Bill + Karen (Melbourne Village, Florida)
Date of Stay: 05/15/11 Review Submitted: 06/06/11

The listing photos accurately portrayed the condo; we were extremely pleased with the immaculate condition of the condo and the availability of every item that we needed during our stay. Initially we had a problem locating the building and opening the door combo lock, but Eric was immediately accessible and resolved the problem. The location right on the beach with crystal-clear water allowed snorkeling, swimming and shell-collecting. Frederiksted is small and quaint with a fine restaurant, the Blue Moon, which we visited two times, and a colorful coffee + brunch shop (Polly's). We enjoyed a tour of the Cruzan Rum Distillery and the Botanical Gardens; both in Frederiksted. As recommended by Eric we rented a jeep which is advisable with the poor road system on St.Croix and drove to Christiansted for some shopping, a tour of the fort and a magnificent sailboat cruise to Buck Island for snorkeling at the National Underwater Park. St.Croix is in the West Indies and I had to adapt to "Island Time" which probably is a healthy transition from "Mainland Time". I had visited St.Croix (43) years ago and, not surprisingly, the island hasn't changed that much, but we will not wait as long for the next visit.

Owner response:As owners of a home that we also rent out to guests it is always great to hear others say how they enjoy the property as we do. But better yet is to have them tell of the good times they had exploring the Island and visiting the sites and swimming and dining at the local establishments. We do try hard from a distance to make everyones stay as enjoyable as possible and be in contact if needed. We are so happy Bill and Karen enjoyed their stay on St Croix. Thank you

We are a couple in our 70s who just returned from a delightful 3 week stay at SeaBreeze. The following statement is NOT meant to be as a braggart - rather, a point of reference - over the years, we have traveled to 7 Caribbean islands - we found SeaBreeze & St. Croix to be the best combined venue yet!! To the point where we have booked it again for next year. The photos herein are very accurate & show SeaBreeze just as it is. We had never visited St. Croix (and obviously not SeaBreeze) and, before leaving home we hoped that it would be half as good as the pictures indicated. Shortly after arrival it was obviously that,as good as the pictures are, SeaBreeze is better - the whole experience makes it better. SeaBreeze has every amenity imaginable.And, the owners can easily be reached for any need. The "gallery" (porch) has been most properly named - a breakfast or any meal or just a drink or coffee there gives one a feeling of truly viewing the scenery as if viewing it all in a gallery. The snorkeling right out front is obviously great & enjoyed by all - not necessarily our skill but, can readily see it's appeal. How about sleeping at night to the sound of the soft waves out front with a tropical breeze blowing back to front through the bedroom!! Location - a walk or short drive to 2-3 great beach bars - OR - into Fredriksted for a somewhat more formal meal but still as a beachside or open air dining experience. As for St. Croix - beautiful, many rolling hills, VERY friendly people, good roads - we found to have very resonable pricing. A stroll at night allows unhampered viewing of the stars & moon above. Counting the days until our next visit!!

Owner response:Wow... As a family and owners of a property that we both use and rent this type of review is what we dream of and work hard to achieve. We can only do so much and all guests have different options , but we are clearly pleased that Jim and Barbara enjoyed their trip to St Croix and their stay at the SeaBreeze. We welcome you back next year Eric, Karla, Eric and Kate

april 4,2011 Hi Eric & Karla, Thanks for being so prompt in crediting our security deposit...really appreciate that. I'm sorry that I haven't emailed you earlier to tell you how much we enjoyed our week in St. Croix and your condo. Everything was clean, nicely maintained, & you've thought of everything we might need. Your information letter nicely explained your desire to conserve electricity & water which we tried to honor as much as possible, only turning on the hot water before showers & turnig off lights & fans when not using. But it would have been really helpful to us if you had elaborated on the "more bugs" situation by saying that watching sunsets on the gallery (a definate 'must do') & listening to the surf in the evenings is best done with bug spray on ( which was supplied in the condo). But what a wonderful location and view you have. We absolutely loved exploring the island, meeting locals everywhere that were so friendly & welcoming, & the snorkeling @ Buck Island was some of the best we've ever seen. We will definately be going back & we will definately contact you again for rental & recommend your place to our friends. Thank you so much, Jan & Brad Boulder CO
