Beautiful, renovated condo

We have stayed in dozens of gentle winds condos over the years and this one was the most well equipped-from the sharp knives and great pans to ample TP, paper towels and laundry soap. We will definitely stay here again!

Great getaway!

This place was all we could have wanted. Stayed here with our 5 adult kids and we had plenty of room! We loved the balconies for star gazing at night and coffee drinking in the morning. The condo was equipped with everything we needed to be comfortable and more! We cooked a few meals here easily, played games, and borrowed some snorkel gear when our broke. The pool and beach were great with the awesome bonus of the snack shack!We loved everything about the property and would highly recommend!

Best Vacation

We absolutely loved our time spent in this condo at gentle winds. The beds were all very comfortable and had AC in the bedrooms. The balcony had outside seating space with a beautiful view and a nice ocean breeze! Everything was super updated just like the pictures. Nancy was responsive and extremely kind. We were sad to leave!

Wonderful townhome and location

Our family had a great week at Gentle Winds in the last week of June 2022. The townhome was recently upgraded and included very nice furniture and amenities. The large island was great for everyone to be around eating and/or playing games. The Gentle Winds property could not be a better place to have a fun / relaxing family vacation. The facilities are great, the pool was right by the beach and there was also a fantastic patio bar / restaurant that served delicious food and pool drinks every afternoon.

A gem!

This property is a gem. From the location, to the furnishings, to the community, pool/swimming area/snorkeling, beach shack, bar, and grill, and working with Nancy – the best VRBO experience I’ve ever had. This property has it all plus more than you ever thought you needed or wanted. Don’t hesitate to book this one.

Beautiful and Peaceful

Gentle Winds has been our favorite place to stay for many years. We love having the beach and pool practically to ourselves and the snack shack tops it off with delicious lunches and drinks as the perfect spot for our family. This condo was recently remodeled and very nice! Plenty of comfortable beds for sleeping and everything else you may need. Nice ocean front tiki huts to stay out of the sun while enjoying the beach. There is also corn hole, ping pong, shuffleboard, tennis, golf, a children's hidden pirate area and so much more available at this hidden gem of a place.

Thanksgiving Vacation

From the moment we walked into Nancy’s condo we knew our vacation would be super. This is our sixth time renting at Gentle Winds and the first time renting from Nancy. Hers is by far the best we have experienced. Large bright kitchen with a huge island, new appliances, and all the amenities you would need. Comfortable beds, plenty of towels, tiled bathrooms, air conditioned bedrooms, ceiling fans, etc. Nancy’s communication with us prior to our arrival was detailed and informative- we had everything we needed to know and also knew that she was available if we needed anything once we had arrived. She was a great host !

Great Condo in Great Location

We really enjoyed our stay. Very clean unit with great views of the pool and sea. The kitchen was great...we actually enjoyed cooking with a breeze and sea views! The 3 bed/3 baths were perfect for our family of 5. Please note that the air conditioning is in the bedrooms only; the winds were actually low most days we were there so it could get a little warm during the day and we were glad the loft bed wasn't needed. I understand from neighbors that the winds are usually stronger so cross breezes through the condo would typically be better, but it was definitely manageable. Nancy is a great host. We would not hesitate to stay here again!

Perfect in MANY Ways

1st time to St Croix and we made a great choice staying with Nancy! The condo was in a lovely location with home and community amenities that made our stay terrific. There was enough space for everyone to be alone or gather/play games in the common areas of the condo. The kitchen and baths were well appointed and everything was clean. It was also great having 3 private baths to match the 3 bedrooms. Queen bed upstairs was VERY comfortable for me. The teens loved the rec area with pingpong & shuffleboard. The beach was wonderul and packed with wildlife, plus coral gardens just beyond the ropes. The pool was clean and never crowded, same goes for the beach, plus snack and beverage shack. The decks were perfect for star gazing! Would definitely rent here again. Nancy was VERY responsive, quick and helpful, very much appreciated.

Croix Boy

Property is an obvious rental property. Furnishings were comfortable, but unlike other Gentle Winds condos we have rented, the living areaes were not air conditioned, only the bedrooms. Ceiling fans and an oscillating stand up fan were provided for air comfort in the living area. While the property was maintained and contained sporting and snorkel accessories, the exterior door was not flush and a significant number of cobwebs were outside the screen off the living room lanai. I would rent it again, but would also check other Gentle Winds options as well. We left a day early (Friday instead of Saturday), Stripped the sheets and washed the towels before leaving. We also discarded in the dumpster all food we had bought. I trust we will be found as good renters.

good afternoon, Nelson. sorry our unit did not meet your expectations. most guests have found our condo exceptional. fyi the condo assoc is responsible for the front door. i appreciate your comment on that and will touch base with the manager on the door. we chose not to have air conditioning in the living area simply because of the wonderful breezes our condo usually enjoys. thank you for your candid review

About the host

Host profile image
Our family has owned our delightful Gentle Winds condo since the early 70s. Our children and grandchildren have grown up enjoying winter vacations here and still anxiously await an annual trip. They've obtained their scuba licenses here and some of them continue to hone their golfing and tennis skills while visiting our beloved island.

Why they chose this property

You'll enjoy the tranquil atmosphere of Gentle Winds, well named for the delightful breezes here. With the renovation complete, there's not a better place to stay for your ideal tropical vacation.
