If you want to swim in the sea, a five minute walk brings you to a beach which is the only spot where Christopher Columbus actually landed in the United States. It's not the biggest beach, but the water is calm, there is a sandy bottom, and there are amazing shells that get washed up in the inlet. The cool thing about St. Croix is that there are so many beaches, and Kristie happily told us the pros and cons of each. On Kristie's suggestion, we explored a few, and were never steered wrong.

Most importantly, Kristie and Chris are amazing hosts. She makes a mean Pina Colada and even set up a happy hour for the guests (we were so incredibly sorry to have missed because our family had a health care emergency). Overall they couldn't have been kinder, more helpful or more understanding. Their hospitality was thorough, thoughtful, and incredibly appreciated. When I read the reviews to this property, I wondered if it was too good to be true. Make no mistake, it is that good. Book it if it's available! More

It was exactly the natural getaway we needed after Covid lockdowns. The villa’s location is perfect: feels secluded but a short drive to the island’s towns and beaches and sights.

You will have everything you need, felt like home but with a wonderful ocean front view. We were able to cook many meals in the studio, ample space for a couple. Patrick & Siria, the hosts, are true assets, always around if you needed anything, yet you feel like you still had your privacy. We were the only guests for most of the week, we felt very lucky.

The property is lovely, well maintained with an outstanding view of the Salt River inlet on St. Croix. We look forward to staying there again.

Villa Margarita was perfect for us: on... read more the water, facing breezes, well-maintained, clean and affordable. It is a small slice of paradise. We rented the two-bedroom unit with two couples. There is one bath; one room has a king bed, the other a queen. The kitchen has a refrigerator, hot plate, toaster oven, and microwave, but no stove. There is a shared gas grille by the pool, a hot tub (we didn't use), and a Tiki bar with a full range of local rum -- free for use by guests. The place looked exactly like the pictures: nice but not opulent (no marble countertops). The bathroom is split in two with a separate room for toilet and shower/bath with sink and a front room with just a sink, so it worked well for two couples. There is a caretaker in residence -- actually in transition with a five-year caretaker leaving; the new one is nice and concientious so the quality others have mentioned should continue. The villa is by itself at the end of a dirt road so you need a car. You cannot swim immediately in front of the villa, but there is a short walk left or right to nice beaches. We found ourselves spending lots of time on the balcony, shaded from the sun and facing the breezes -- a perfect place for a liesurly breakfast or late afternoon drink. Since there are only three units it seemed like we had the place to ourselves most of the time. There is a nice restaurant, Flyers, in the nearby marina -- you could walk, but we drove. A short drive to the West is Cane Bay Beach and the newly named (March 2020) Leatherback Restaurant (formerly Cane Bay). We had fresh fish there that was the best fish meal we have ever had, and the view is across the beach to the sea -- perfect.

Would definitely recommend it and plan to go back.

The Caretakers: Denise and TJ have lived on the island for over 10 years and they enthusiastically share their knowledge of the area with guests, which enabled-us to take advantage of the specials typically only known by “the Locals”, (aka Fun Day Sunday at Hotel on the Cay & 1/2 priced burgers on Monday at Cane Bay).

The room is nicely appointed and it overlooks the pool, hot tub and of course the ocean. We definitely plan to stay there again!
