Specifically built across the prevailing tradewinds, Crosswinds enjoys natural air conditioning regulated by ample louvered windows on all sides of the house as well as a 12 foot screened opening to the deck. The full opening to the deck, adjacent to the living room, pleasantly blurs the lines between inside and outside. A cathedral ceiling adds to an especially airy feeling. Crosswinds is an open living/kitchen/dining area, and an adjacent en-suite bedroom with a king size bed.
All windows are screened with glass-louvered windows allowing these rooms to take full advantage of the Caribbean Tradewinds, rustling palms and balmy nights. The garden setting and large clear glass windows adds to.the lush tropical feel throughout the house as well as keeps the house cool, open yet private. The bathroom has an oversize shower, a 6 foot sink cabinet while the bedroom has more than ample space for your clothes and other items.

About the host
Hosted by Chip McLaughlin
Lifelong New Englanders and world travelers, we split our time between the coast of Rhode Island and Virgin Gorda as well as hoping to discover a new destination or two each year. We chose to spend five months a year in Virgin Gorda after experiencing the perfectly warm water, clean uncrowded beaches, great snorkeling, personal safety and a welcoming local population. Virgin Gorda is constantly improving both through government guidance and visitors appreciation of its unique benefits. The small island has ended our search for the best place to spend every winter.
Why they chose this property
We purchased Crosswinds in Virgin Gorda after vacationing here for nine consecutive years. The garden level apartment was the original owner's home. Situated for maximum privacy from the rest of the house, This part of the house was totally gutted and updated after 40 years while remaining true to its original Caribbean Bungalow origins. New glass louvered windows coexist with air conditioning while an induction stove top and fade resistant fabrics carry you into the new century. Remodeled to blend with out door living and it's garden setting, Crosswinds is the perfect refuge after a day on Spring Bay Beach. The experience of our renting led us to create the vacation rental we always wished for. while honoring the tropical location which drew us in. We added an over-equipped kitchen, upscale furnishings, an outdoor living space including a great gas grill and lots of potted tropical plants,
Crosswinds is a home rather than a hotel or business. Located in a private enclave of 10 homes, the third house back from Spring Bay, its privacy is assured in a four-acre garden setting. Spring Bay Beach is a white sand beach; the water is crystal clear, warm and always refreshing Given the tiny population and stable, well-run government, your personal safety is unmatched in the Caribbean. So stroll about to beaches, beach bars, local and tourist restaurants. Live unguarded and enjoy the tropical vacation you always imagined!
What makes this property unique
Everything in Virgin Gorda revolves around the water and beaches. Leave the golf clubs home and forget about gambling. Plan on snorkeling, swimming, bobbing with a noodle and relaxing by the water all day. There are ample opportunities to explore other islands for the day or half the day on a variety of sail and motor boats. Rent a car and explore a large number of beaches, snorkeling spots, hiking and natural beauty. Take advantage of the high-end spas and resorts though you will then be glad you have Spring Bay and her sunsets to return to.
