The house has a fantastic floor plan and is well furnished. The list of pros for this house is long: wifi, large TV (3D), satellite TV, fantastic views, private, excellent generator (a must have), gated, wonderful salt water pool, coffee grinder, propane grill, 4+ bedrooms with very comfortable beds, mosquito nets for all beds, individual air conditioning in the bedrooms, nicely appointed furnishings, recently painted, outstanding property manager (Donna), close to Christianstad, abundant wildlife, fully stocked kitchen supplies (pots/pans, dinnerware), great breezes on pool deck, covered carport, solar, tile everywhere, labelled switches, etc. One bedroom with darkening shades, the rest had sheer curtains (tough to take a nap for little ones). I would recommend renting a 4-wheel drive and I suggest you allow Donna to meet you at the airport to lead you to the home and also show you where the button is to get hot water (cold showers are no fun). The property has some large drop offs without fencing, so watch any small children. The house had maintenance issues that we discovered during a storm (windows leaking, water pouring out of outlets, security gate stopped working, several uncovered outdoor outlets), and the kitchen does need a thorough deep cleaning. We did find some used soap/sponge in the guest bath, otherwise all other bathrooms were spotless. I suspect the maintenance issues are being resolved. After each issue, Donna always showed up to help in any way necessary. She was fantastic and made us feel welcomed and a great resource for St. Croix. The pool was the most used item in this house. My child loved seeing all the lizards birds, snails, and even a gigantic hermit crab. I’d definitely recommend this house, if it is your first time on the Island. Its location to the major roads is a huge plus and makes getting around so easy. We couldn’t have found a better location to stay nor a better property manager for our 1st visit to St. Croix.
