About this property

Cruzan Classic - a Tropical Retreat on St. Croix’s tranquil South Shore

Our house is a classic "Cruzan" style home on St. Croix's rural South Shore. The house is 3 bedrooms and 3 baths with a spacious, modern kitchen, living area, and a breezy gallery-style porch with ocean views. Sunrise here is a magical experience, one you will never forget. The perfect spot for morning coffee, lazy afternoons, sunset cocktails, and conversations long into the evening.
Surrounded by beautiful pasture land, the property is peaceful, yet an easy 10-minute drive to the shops and restaurants of historic Christiansted. Beaches, grocery stores, and St. Croix airport are also just minutes away. Centrally located on St. Croix, this is an ideal spot from which you can easily head east or west, minimizing travel time as you enjoy the many beautiful beaches and historic sites of our American paradise.

We’ve chosen to keep the property as close to natural Caribbean life as possible, cooling the house with ceiling fans rather than air conditioning. Enjoy the comforts of modern life while you experience life at nature’s pace. Simple elegance in a soothing natural environment provides an authentic Caribbean experience.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
