Wonderful Week In St Croix
Review submitted: June 19, 2012 Date of arrival: May 19, 2012
Eric and Karla,
We just returned after spending a wonderful week at your condo for our 22nd anniversary. The amenities you provided were great. We actually brought too much. We could have packed much lighter. We had fun traveling to other beaches but found that the one a few steps from our door was the best! We spent our mornings walking the beach, our days exploring the island, and evenings watching the sun go down. The water and sand were beautiful. We even met a couple that had stayed at your condo but couldn’t rent it because we beat them to it. They came by and we chatted it up, went to dinner the next day and went snorkeling together.
Among some things we did: shopping at the Christiansted boardwalk, guided fishing up the Salt River, shopping in Fredriksted, dined at Turtles, Coconuts, Angry Nates, Breezez (the best!), toured the Cruzan Rum Factory, toured St. Edward Botanical Gardens, snorkeled (my husband snorkeled daily, multiple times), fished from the shore in front of the condo, searched for sea glass, etc.
What I liked about the location is it’s not in an area with high-rise hotels on each side. We were among the locals. It was not crowded, people were friendly, and we had the beach to ourselves. It was awesome!

Couldn't Be Nicer
Review submitted: June 19, 2012 Date of arrival: June 10, 2012
The beachfront couldn’t be nicer. And until the last two days we were literally there by ourselves 99% of the time! It felt like our own private place and beach! We had an amazing time and I just wanted to say, thanks! Cheryl

Amazing Sunset Views of the Caribbean
Loved our stay at the "Pink Condo"...waking up each and every morning to the beautiful caribbean waters and watching the amazing sunsets each nite...right from your very own private porch (gallery). All locations on the island are easily accessible...despite nobody knowing street names or numbers...the pocket map helped us find our way around the island quite easily. And driving on the left side of the road was not bad and you got used to it after a couple of days...you just keep in your mind "ass to the grass". The snorkeling right out your backdoor was fabulous...basically saw all kinds of colorful fish in waist deep water. Other highlights included; Driving thru the rainforest, Rhythms Beach Bar, Coconuts Bar & Grill, Cane Bay Off-the-Wall Beach Bar, Blue Moon, Villa Morelos Restaurant, and the Botantical Garden. This is a wonderful place to really "kick back, rest, relax, and revive".

Hi Eric and Karla

Hi Eric & Karla,
Thanks for being so prompt in crediting our security deposit...really appreciate that. I'm sorry that I haven't emailed you earlier to tell you how much we enjoyed our week in St. Croix and your condo. Everything was clean, nicely maintained, & you've thought of everything we might need. Your information letter nicely explained your desire to conserve electricity & water which we tried to honor as much as possible, only turning on the hot water before showers & turnig off lights & fans when not using. But it would have been really helpful to us if you had elaborated on the "more bugs" situation by saying that watching sunsets on the gallery (a definate 'must do') & listening to the surf in the evenings is best done with bug spray on ( which was supplied in the condo). But what a wonderful location and view you have.
We absolutely loved exploring the island, meeting locals everywhere that were so friendly & welcoming, & the snorkeling @ Buck Island was some of the best we've ever seen. We will definately be going back & we will definately contact you again for rental & recommend your place to our friends.
Thank you so much,
Jan & Brad

The Best Yet
Review submitted: June 13, 2011 Date of arrival: May 22, 2011
We are a couple in our 70s who just returned from a delightful 3 week stay at SeaBreeze. The following statement is NOT meant to be as a braggart - rather, a point of reference - over the years, we have traveled to 7 Caribbean islands - we found SeaBreeze & St. Croix to be the best combined venue yet!! To the point where we have booked it again for next year. The photos herein are very accurate & show SeaBreeze just as it is. We had never visited St. Croix (and obviously not SeaBreeze) and, before leaving home we hoped that it would be half as good as the pictures indicated. Shortly after arrival it was obviously that,as good as the pictures are, SeaBreeze is better - the whole experience makes it better. SeaBreeze has every amenity imaginable.And, the owners can easily be reached for any need. The "gallery" (porch) has been most properly named - a breakfast or any meal or just a drink or coffee there gives one a feeling of truly viewing the scenery as if viewing it all in a gallery. The snorkeling right out front is obviously great & enjoyed by all - not necessarily our skill but, can readily see it's appeal. How about sleeping at night to the sound of the soft waves out front with a tropical breeze blowing back to front through the bedroom!! Location - a walk or short drive to 2-3 great beach bars - OR - into Fredriksted for a somewhat more formal meal but still as a beachside or open air dining experience. As for St. Croix - beautiful, many rolling hills, VERY friendly people, good roads - we found to have very resonable pricing. A stroll at night allows unhampered viewing of the stars & moon above. Counting the days until our next visit!!

Pick Of St Croix- A little bit of paradise

Of all the choices - I could not have chosen better - right on the sandy beach with a coral banks and tropical fish 20 metres away. The condo is delightful with all you could wish for, even with a coconut palm right in front of you - like a home from home - but with a wooden porch/verandah overlooking the sea and the spectacular sunsets. If you are not in the sea, snorkling with the fish, the verandah is the place to be - a white wooden structure with a turqoise wooden floor. A very tasteful visual combination against the pinks of the main structure, open to sea breezes, out of the sun and a few steps from the beach. Within walking distance to Frederiksted, which is a delight in itself - a bit sleepy, friendly people, on its way up in this world - a real place not yet overtaken by tourism. Towards the west, a few hundred metres away there is a 'rain forest' a magical place of grand old mahogany trees, rain trees with hanging aerial roots and yes mango trees alongside the road - yes I did pick some and had them for breakfast. This place is a real delight - made so by the owners and its location - You may guess that I liked it a lot. If you are lucky you will get to visit here.
