SARGASSO Update: The Caribbean Sea has been experiencing higher volumes of Sargasso sea grass in recent years. This sea grass can wash up and pile on the beach and create an unpleasant smell as it decays. It is most prevalent on the North and East side of the island. In large amounts it prevents enjoyable use of our beach. The west end of the island has beautiful beaches that are almost always sea grass free. The Sargasso grass is most prevalent during the hotter months of late July - September. This condition is unpredictable on a week to week basis and something that is totally out of our control. As a result, unfortunately our current policy must be that we cannot issue refunds as a result of Sargasso.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The location is great, close to Christiansted, and only about 20-30 minutes to Fredericksted and about 50minutes to Point Udall. The view alone was amazing, but this condo also has pretty much everything you can think of! Plenty of snorkel gear to choose from, extra beach towels, sunscreen/bug spray, fully equipped kitchen, etc. The beds are comfy and the AC is cold. Its not a far walk down to the sandy beach area, and there is plenty to explore along the shoreline on either side of the building. A cool location to snorkel is around the tire reef and old pier and its basically right in front of the patio. Earl stopped by to check on us and it was an absolute pleasure to meet him in person! Highly recommend this condo!

Nice property and right on the beach. We dove on and off through the week and had to go to salt river to catch the dive boat. Condo is only about 15 min away. Had a great time lounging in the pool which is very close to the condo. Would stay again

We stayed at Toes in the Sand January 11-14, 2026 and had a wonderful time. This condo is in a gated community and has no steps to and from the unit. The sandy bottom Sugar Beach entrance to the ocean is a very short walk from the gallery. The unit has a Very comfortable king sized bed and a gorgeous kitchen. I’m a chef so I appreciate a great kitchen. On a scale of 1-10, this kitchen is a 12. It boasts a massive quartz island as well as all quartz countertops throughout. The cabinet and drawers feature the slow-close hardware and Earl provides everything you need to cook including all the pots, pans, and utensils. The unit is clean and centrally located (close to Christiansted, about 20 minutes to Frederiksted, and about 35 minutes to Point Udall). It is a 2 bedroom, 2 bath unit so there is plenty of room. Plenty of towels (both bath and beach) are provided and the washer and dryer look to be brand new. Some snorkel gear and water shoes were at the unit but we had our own. The Smart TV is new and books and board games are provided. Coral Sea restaurant is right next door with a gate right next to the condo and offers great food. Chef Sylvia is fantastic and our server Yvette was Very entertaining ! Toes is a great place to stay in a relaxing environment and to have a Great St. Croix day!

Cause of airline problems we were only able to stay 2 and half days. Loved that this place we were able to walk right out onto the beach! Will return for sure!
Property as described. It is a beautiful condo with spectacular views. It is centrally located so exploring the island is easy. There are two restaurants within walking distance. Owner was super to work with and provided for all our needs including beach towels for our use. Pack your swimsuit and book at this one for a relaxing vacation.

Perfect location that is steps to the water
We had an amazing time in St. Croix! Thanks to the owners of this beautiful condo for providing everything we needed for our daily adventures(snorkeling equipment, beach chairs/towels, cooler and even a bottle of rum)
We felt very safe in the colony cove gated community and was a super quick drive to the boardwalk. The view from this condo is gorgeous!

Hi Stephanie,

I tried several times to stop by and see you while you were with us but could never seem to catch you at home...I guess that means you were out having a great time exploring our beautiful island!
We're so glad you had a great time on St Croix and found everything at Toe's in the Sand to your liking...
We'd love to have you back and hope you will accept our offer of 10% off your next stay with us.
Thanks again, !

The unit had all the accessories one would want. View from the patio is great. The beach is not the best for swimming, rocky and not real calm. There are plenty of other beaches on the island that are worth visiting. Great location for touring the island to go east or west. Short drive to boardwalk and many restaurants to select from.

We had an unforgettable time at Toes in the sand. The location was unbelievable right on the water with an artificial reef just steps away,with amazing snorkeling (all equipment provided even pool noodles). The accommodations inside were just as amazing with comfortable beds and a modern kitchen with granite countertops and tons of cabinet space. We were met with every thing we needed needed even down to a cooler and a wide section of sunscreens. I would highly recommend this Gem and will gladly book again if we ever visit St. Croix again!

Hi Randy,
Thanks for the shout out!
I hope you and the kids had a great time despite the power troubles.
I found out that WAPA ( the electric company ) was in the process of converting portions over to LP gas usage and that causing the power problems. That seems to be behind us now and things are back to normal.
We hope that you will come see us again and stay longer next time.
There are so many cool places to explore on St Croix.
Please accept our offer of 10% off a return visit and come see us again sometime !

About the host
Hosted by Earl Parson
This property is proudly owned and managed by: Earl Parson & Le Achenbach We acquired our first Colony Cove unit in 2011 as a stepping stone onto the island. ( Toe's in the Sand VRBO 508070) We purchased it 'site unseen', packed up our belongings, pets and business and were not disappointed in the least. Our plan was to live in the condo while building our business, then to buy a house and vacation rent the condo. We have been fortunate enough to realize that dream. We are still on island with no intention of ever leaving this tropical paradise. We now have a house near Frederiksted and have since purchased an additional Colony Cove unit to share with YOU ! ( Island Time VRBO 1491472 )
Why they chose this property
Colony Cove is a beach side gated complex with pool, grills and tennis courts. All units have a least a partial ocean view. 'D' building is directly on the beach. Our unit is not only in the coveted 'D' building, but is ground floor with beach access from the unit. It is also at the private end and closest to Coral Sea Cafe restaurant. The gate to Coral Sea is just out the front door to the right, or walk out back and take the beach route:)
