Gentle Winds Villas vacation rentals

The condo was perfect for our family vacation. Clean, comfortable, organized, and well equipped with everything you could possibly need for a perfect stay in paradise. The view from the living room is absolutely beautiful and you can hear the sounds of the waves. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

This is not the most “updated” condo, but it’s clean, has great amenities, and is in the PERFECT location. We absolutely loved our time here. The host was communicative and accommodating. We’d stay here again!

The property is well maintained, clean with comfortable furniture, & the bath/bed linens are soft! Plenty of space for 6 adults & 2 teens. A bathroom for each bedroom. Be aware- no bathtubs if you have little kids. Checkin and checkout couldn’t be easier. Key kept in the lockbox so you don’t need to carry keys. Eric was a pleasure to deal with and immediately handled the only issue that arose. Community - we were there during an exceptionally windy week. But still enjoyed snorkeling right on property. Many different kinds of fish and some taller coral can be found. The water was a little rough and very shallow so you must be careful that the waves don’t push you into the coral. There is a nice sized roped off section for swimming. Adjacent rocky shoreline with tide pools. All around the property, we enjoyed searching for lizards, crabs, and hermit crabs. Nice little play area for kids in the beach trees with a pretend ship and some sand toys. Equipment for tennis, pickleball, golf, cornhole, shuffleboard and clubhouse stocked with games and books. Relax by the pool or on the beach in comfortable furniture and hammocks. Plenty of cover from the sun. The beachside snack shack serves delicious food and drinks at reasonable prices. And the pool is a good size with a 10ft end. Location - the whole north shore was windy and the water was slightly rough for snorkeling due to shallow coral but perfect for swimming. You can get anywhere within 30 min save Pt Udall. Christiansted is the place to souvenir shop. The property is right next to Salt River Bay for bioluminescent kayak tours & Flyers grill for good food. Some recommendations: Snorkeling from shore - hawksbill and green sea turtles, fish, octopus, sting ray at Sand Castle Beach. Bright coral, turtles, cuttlefish, fish at Frederiksted pier. Cane Bay didn’t have anything different than fish seen elsewhere and according to a local, tends to be on the rougher side typically. We didn’t snorkel at Isaacs bay. Instead we went twice to Sand Castle Beach. Tour operators - Cruzan Cowgirls- Horses are all rescues, look healthy, and are gentle. We even went in the water and trotted little in the beach. Buck Island Charter sailboat- no loud party music, byo lunch, and plenty of time on Turtle Beach. Virgin Kayak for bioluminescent bay- pedal kayaks are easy and leave your hands free. Food- La Reine Chicken shack, Flyers Grill, Polly’s, and the property snack shack are all great

Great location, and facilities. Unit was as described. Owner provided clear easy to follow instructions and information for our stay.

The condo and property are well cared for and the weather is perfect.

We enjoyed our stay at Gentle Winds, which is the best property on St Croix in my opinion. The condo had three bedrooms, which was fantastic for our group. We loved the beach and the pool and the grounds are well cared for. We have stayed at Gentle Winds three times now and every time it's been great.
