Swept Away is a spacious, 1200 sq ft 1 BD/1BA apartment within a small and very private beachfront condominium complex, a mile south of the historic town of Frederiksted and 15 minutes away from St Croix Airport. It sits directly on west-facing Dorsch Beach, considered one of the best beaches in St Croix for its unspoiled natural beauty and glorious sunsets.
Swept Away truly is beachfront! From the lanai, you will overlook the crystal blue waters and a pristine sandy beach that are just a few steps away. These waters feature some of the best snorkeling in St Croix, with frequent sightings of turtles, manta rays, dolphins and parrot fish. Floor-to-ceiling windows in every room create a fresh, open-air feel. A delightful ocean breeze blows almost continuously, carrying the delicious salt air. In the evenings, spectacular sunsets are on display. And at night, you will be lulled asleep by the sound of the waves.
The condo is furnished with 2 queen beds in the air-conditioned bedroom. In addition, there is a full-size sofa bed in the Living Room and a high twin plug-in inflatable mattress. Maximum occupancy is 4 and all guests must be 16 years of age or older. There is a desk, fast internet, a Roku TV in the bedroom for streaming, and Smart TV connected to cable in the living room. No smoking is allowed.
The kitchen is beautifully appointed with mahogany cabinets and solid-surface countertops, and equipped with a full range of cooking utensils, microwave, toaster oven, blender, coffeemaker and Instant-pot. There is a 3-stage water filtration system in the unit, and a UV water filtration system for the condo building.
The bathroom, also furnished in mahogany cabinetry, has a large walk-in shower and two sinks. The unit comes with a private laundry room, where you will have a full-size washer and dryer at your disposal and at no charge.
The intimate 18-unit complex has a large freshwater pool, a covered gazebo with a gas BBQ grill, a dining table and chairs for your outdoor dining pleasure, and a hammock to relax. The complex is very secure, with access only through security gates. There is a nearby property manager if you should need help with the unit, and a live-in onsite caretaker if you should have questions about the complex. Beach chairs, beach towels, and cooler are provided. You will also have a dedicated parking space.
In nearby Frederiksted, with its quaint Danish architecture, you will find several outstanding restaurants and beach bar-cafes. (A detailed list of local attactions is provided in the guest information book.) The dive shop in Frederiksted leads scuba dives, off the Frederiksted pier. And when a cruise ship docks at the pier (which happens frequently), art and craft stalls appear in the main square and the famous Moko Jumbies dance – it’s Carnival time!
Just north of Frederiksted you can take a beach horseback ride with Cruzan Cowgirls. Alternatively, take a drive into the rainforest to visit the beer-drinking pig and eat Cruzan cuisine at the Mt Pellier Domino Club. Why not stop along the way at the historic Lawaetz Museum, a Danish great house from the 1900s? A few minutes south of the complex is the Sandy Point Nature Wildlife Refuge, an expanse of dazzling white beach where turtles come to nest every year. Come to Swept Away and fall in love with the very best in beachfront living!
