OCEANFRONT - Walk to Cane Bay beach, bars and restaurants!
Welcome to Just Add Rum! (Formerly known as Paradise at Cane Bay.)
This beautiful 2 bedroom/2 bath St Croix condo is part of SeaClusion, a gated condo complex located on the north shore of the island and is one of only nine units in this complex. Just Add Rum offers an amazing oceanfront location with spacious accommodations for up to six guests including two private bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. It has an air-conditioning unit in every room. The complex also offers a community pool, gas grills, free laundry facilities and off-street parking for guests.
Everything about Just Add Rum was specifically chosen with your comfort and relaxation in mind. Cozy and stylish furnishings with contemporary artistic touches throughout make you feel right at home in this tropical location. Vaulted ceilings make our home feel even more spacious.
The bedrooms are well-appointed with memory foam mattresses, soft linens, light filtering roman shades, televisions and ample closet space for tucking away your belongings. Both bathrooms feature travertine walk-in showers, glass vessel sinks and plenty of soft, fluffy towels. The water system is fully filtered and safe to drink. Please keep in mind, we are on an island and water pressure and temperature can vary.
Relax at the breakfast bar in the fully equipped kitchen, stocked with plenty of cookware, utensils, stemware, a dishwasher, oven, microwave, toaster, blender and coffee maker.
The main living area adjacent to the deck features a large dining area and a comfortable family room with seating for six and a 55 inch high-def TV. The entertainment center houses a Blu-ray player along with movies and games.
The 225 square foot covered deck features Polywood eco-conscious furniture to create both a sitting and dining area and boasts stunning views of the water, Hams Bluff and on clear days St Thomas and the BVI's. And if you’re out there at night enjoying a cold beverage, you can often see the car headlights over on St Thomas!
Just Add Rum is also family-friendly! There is a pack-n-play and booster high chair available along with a full set of children’s dinnerware.
Don’t worry if you’re not quite ready to unplug completely, Just Add Rum offers high-speed wireless internet.
Once you’re ready to head out and explore you can take advantage of the beach chairs, beach towels and portable cooler provided for your use. There is no shortage of places to explore!
Just Add Rum is just minutes from Cane Bay beach and one of the world’s most desirable dive locations, the Cane Bay Wall. There are several restaurants right within walking distance. Make sure you try AMA Cane Bay for a nice meal, bingo at Off The Wall and the burgers at The Landing Beach Bar.
Christiansted, the island’s main town, is just a short scenic drive to the east and Frederiksted is a short drive to the west.

Thank you for your wonderful review. We are so happy you enjoyed your stay. We are continuously updating our condo with new linens, updated decor and more to make sure everyone has the best possible experience. And, of course, the proximity to the water IS truly amazing!
Wonderful property! Had everything we needed to make our St. Croix stay amazing! Shannon is an outstanding host as well. Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay on the island.
Perfect for the 5 of us. Had all we needed. Location Right next to Cane Bay and restaurants was awesome. Beach chairs, towels, cooler great to have! Would definitely come again!
This Condo is just like home. Everything we needed was there. Comfortable furniture. The best part is the wide balcony/deck where you can sit for hours and listen and watch the waves come in.
After 7 trips to stx this was the best accommodation yet. Everything we needed and more. If you can stay here, make it happen! The views, the location, it is well equipped, 5 stars! Thank you for a wonderful week in your home.
This comfy condo was a fantastic spot to stay and enjoy the island! We stayed for a week, and this location was perfect for both walking to local beaches and restaurants, as well as a short drive to Christiansted for other evenings out. If you're interested in diving, Cane Bay has some excellent diving and rentals nearby.
The hosts were very responsive, the condo was super clean, and everything was well kept and in great shape. Definitely recommend staying here!

Cheers!

We had another wonderful stay. The unit is well equipped and feels like a home and not a vacation rental. We started each day having coffee on the oceanfront balcony and enjoyed watching the sunset with cocktails every evening
I am sure we will visit this fabulous property again

Beautiful property, very well kept. And the water is so very calming. The storm came through but we roughed it out and made memories! Everyone was so nice and helpful.

This was a second time staying in this unit. The unit is well appointed and had everything we needed for our stay. Enjoyed listening to the wave crashing while relaxing overlooking the ocean.

Beautiful condo with ocean waves right out the balcony doors.
This was a very restful and beautiful place to stay. We enjoyed our stay very much!
Everything we needed was provided in the condo. The balcony view with the crashing waves was fantastic. We sat several days and just enjoyed the view and the waves.
Thanks for sharing your home!

Thank you for your kind review. I wish you had been able to see the whales, they were seen very close by! Maybe next time?
Just Add Rum was the perfect home away from home for our family of 4. Home was very clean, well stocked, and the most beautiful view from the deck. Location was just a 5 minute walk from Cane Bay, which has the best snorkeling! Was also a 20 minute drive to Christiansted and Frederiksted. We definitely recommend this as the place to stay in St. Croix and love to come again.

About the host
Hosted by Julia and Shannon Manns
Native Californians land-locked in Texas for careers in aviation, we were always drawn to the Caribbean. After several trips to St. Croix, we realized this was where our hearts belonged.
Why they chose this property
We had explored all over the island during our many trips, and when we stayed at SeaClusion on the north side, we knew we had found our "home." As luck would have it, the unit we fell in love with, went on the market and we jumped at the chance to own a piece of "the rock."
What makes this property unique
Just Add Rum is paradise. It offers all the comforts of home but in a gorgeous, tropical setting! There is nothing quite like relaxing on the deck with the sound of the waves crashing and the ocean breeze in your face, plus, the sunsets are stunning!
Just Add Rum is walking distance to Cane Bay beach and one of the world’s most desirable dive locations, the Cane Bay Wall. Sweet Bottom Dive Center is just up the road and can help you with all things scuba. They also rent snorkel gear. The beach is great for snorkeling as well. There are several restaurants within walking distance. Make sure you try AMA (next door) for a nice seafood meal, bingo at Off The Wall and the burgers at The Landing Beach Bar.
