Oceanfront Getaway; Picturesque Views

Our condo has just been BEAUTIFUllY RENOVATED with all new living room furniture and rugs, new washer and dryer, upgraded flow-thru hot water system, new linens, and new paint throughout.

To give guests peace of mind with the corona virus, our condo is self check in and out - no in person meeting required. All linens are both cleaned and disinfected following CDC guidelines. All hard surfaces are sanitized prior to check in, including doorknobs, remote controls, etc. All staff have reviewed and are following all CDC recommendations and guidelines.

Our condo is right on the Beach - nothing between you and a million-dollar view but 2 palm trees and about 40 feet of sugar white sand. Picture yourself enjoying breakfast on the veranda with this fantastic view of the Caribbean Sea bursting over the near-by reef. This is the ideal place for your next vacation. Our cathedral ceiling Condo offers everything you might wish for - Complete, fully equipped Kitchen with new, granite counter tops, Master Bedroom with Queen Bed and new, rattan furniture, Full Bathroom downstairs, plus our totally relaxing Sleeping loft with two twin beds and it's own half bath for privacy. Condo includes Central Air Conditioning, Free WiFI, new Washer and Drier, comfortable chairs to curl up in with your favorite book. Being high up on the third floor, we have a wonderful view, and a continuous sea breeze wafting through the condo, which we control by opening or closing the sliders in the bedroom (We have never had to turn on the A/C in 15 years). All condos at Sugar beach are NON SMOKING.

We have decided to go organic, so have bought new organic sheets for all of the beds, and are now providing Paya organic bath amenities (shampoo, conditioner, soaps, and lotion) made with organic papaya, sweet orange and lavender.

We now have a two person kayak for the exclusive use of our guests, located on the kayak rack near the beach. Ours has a 313 on the hull. We also provide snorkeling equipment for our guests enjoyment.

Why not consider a two bedroom condo renting for the price of a one bedroom.

The Sugar Beach Resort includes a Free Form Pool in front of an antique sugar mill, 500 foot long sandy Beach, free, lighted tennis courts for the energetic, the use of a computer in the Club Room, free parking, a local bus line that stops right at the resort, and 2 great water-front restaurants, one at either end of the beach.

We are only one and a half miles from Christiansted, the capital of St. Croix. It was built by the Danish in the 1700's, using yellow brick that was brought over from Denmark as ballast in the sailing ships, which would return with Cruzan rum and molasses. It still maintains much of it old charm, including the old fort, weighing house and counting house. The sidewalks are arcaded to shelter from the tropical sun, which adds to the quaintness of the town. Enjoy the board walk along the harbor, marvel at the variety of boats at anchor, and partake of the numerous restaurants and watering holes along the way. Christiansted is noted for its variety of small boutique shops, featuring local, hand crafted jewelry and gifts.

An automobile is certainly a convenience when exploring the island, and we would recommend renting one for at least part of you stay, but we know of many friends who get along just fine with taxis or the local, inexpensive bus system, stopping directly at the resort. However, this bus system, like so many things on the island, is somewhat erratic.

Great location and views

We enjoyed our time at your home. The location of your home is in a great location and only five minutes from town. Everything was as advertised, the view, breeze, and location. I would definitely book your home on future visits. Never got down to the beach because the pool was so nice and warm. I look forward to out next visit.

Great hosts!

We spent six days at "Rest A While" and loved it. Having a separate bedroom from the living area allows for privacy for one who likes to sleep in with an early riser spouse. This unit is very roomy and clean. The bed is comfy with wonderful evening breezes, just as described. The kitchen was very well stocked with cookware and utensils. The central location on the island allows for easy exploration by car to any area of the island. The responsiveness of Alisha, our contact person, was beyond the best ever. She is definitely a keeper. The pool in this complex is very well maintained and a great place to hang out and read a book if you want an alternative to the beach. The beach is also maintained daily. The in-unit laundry is a big plus. We did not use the loft bedroom, but having an extra bathroom was nice. We would stay here again.

Great Spot on Sugar Beach

This was a great place to stay. It wasn't fancy, but it had everything we needed. It was nicely decorated and was a comfortable place. Everything worked well, (the AC needed to put out more cool air,) but all-in-all, this was a great place and I would stay there again. The pool was fabulous, and the beach was so nice and so well taken care of by the complex caretakers. Love the stray complex cat that was there again on this visit!

Sugar Beach is a little slice of paradise.

The condo delivered as advertised: Great beach views, calm waters, and living accommodations to support a family of 4. Owners Richard and Megan provided island and VRBO rental information early which helped make our vacation a dream. Any questions and/or concerns were addressed immediately. The residents we met at the pool and beach were friendly. I would suggest renting a car to allow you to travel to both ends of the Island. I look forward to returning to St Croix and staying at Sugar Beach Condo.

Great view, great condo!

We just spent a whole week staying at the condo and it was fantastic. We had a great time waking up to a beautiful view since we don’t see that everyday. The condo is very well stocked from plates, utensils, beach towels, anything you can imagine. The ocean breeze goes thru the condo from one end to the other so even though it’s hot outside you can definitely cool down. The sugar beach property is very quiet no disturbances perfect for just relaxing at the beach or even the pool. Overall we had an amazing time. Will stay here again in the future if visiting St. Croix.

Retirement trip

We celebrated our official retirement by booking Dick's and Jane's condo for a 2nd time. The oceanfront location and sunrises just can't be beat. There is nowhere else we would consider staying. We never used the A/C this time either, just opened both sliders and propped open the front door. The bathroom has been upgraded, new indoor / outdoor furniture and granite countertops. The kitchen has everything that you could possibly need. We really appreciate that there is a washer & dryer in the condo. It's nice to come home with clean clothes in your luggage. Enjoyed the pool one evening, very refreshing and we were the only people there. We didn't use the kayak or snorkeling gear, but it's nice to know it was there if we chose to. This trip we went to Cramer Park (east side), nice beach with shade trees, calm water, swan with sting rays and turtles. Not a lot of people. We also took the short boat ride to Protestant Cay. Recommend renting chairs and an umbrella there. We ate dinner at Common Cents in Christiansted and had a wonderful, fresh Mahi fish and chips dinner, reasonably priced. Alisha, the property manager was very helpful and prompt to respond. Thank you Dick & Jane, Jim and Sharon

Wonderful experience.

First, the owners and the concierge (if needed) are fantastic. We received multiple messages with tips and ideas for our trip and it made everything go super smoothly and we felt very at ease with the procedure of utilizing the rental property. The location of this condo was fantastic. You are about 6-7 minutes away from downtown Christiansted, which has many great shops, restaurants, and excursion departures. You're also centrally located on the island itself, about 25-30 minutes from either end, both of which offer great things to do. We absolutely loved the pool area and we did two family dinners at the grill. There is also a clubhouse with a full kitchen if you need it. The unit itself was perfect for our family of 4. The kids loved the lofted bedroom and having a bathroom up there was very helpful. We couldn't ask for more in regards to the setup of the unit. The kitchen was one of the best stocked kitchens I've ever experienced in a VRBO property. The beach is pretty nice, but not necessarily the greatest. The "sand" is a bit rocky and you need to get about 20' out from the beach to get to smoother ground under the water. What's really nice though is there is a reef a few hundred yards out and this really helps keep the waters calm. The kids loved playing in the water. The biggest issue was the seaweed that came in. The condo association has a company that comes and cleans it up, but they just couldn't keep up with it a few of the days. This is a known issue in the entire Caribbean right now, so I wouldn't hold it against this property. Bottom line, if you are traveling with friends and/or family, I can't recommend this place highly enough. The location is great, the pool complex is fantastic, and the beach was a great hangout spot when we weren't exploring all of the other great beaches on the island. Thank you hosts for providing our family a great place to stay during our wonderful vacation.

For us, pros & cons

For us, this wasn't the perfect fit. We didn't have a car. Long walk & taxi ride to food. The beach is nice & clean, the pool was perfect. This morning we loaded the dishwasher & try as we might we couldn't get it to start. At 8:45 a.m. there was construction going on in the condo above or below us. The noise in the evening from some loud bar down the beach from us was also not our cup of tea.

5-Star Return Visit to Sugar Beach

We come to St. Croix to swim and snorkel and enjoy beach-front accommodations. Recognizing how hard it is to keep a property in top form while under the constant assault of sun, sand and salt, the condo was in very good shape, clean and well-appointed. We appreciated having extra things like beach towels & a soft-sided cooler to use. The kitchen had everything we needed, and it was great having Alisha, the property manager, check on us.

Great stay in St. Croix!

The condo was the most well-stocked we've ever stayed in. Communication was excellent with all check-in procedures shared well in advance. We enjoyed the beach at the condo but also were able to enjoy 5-6 others on the island. You can be anywhere on the island within 30 minutes. This was the "off-season" so we had almost every beach to ourselves. We spent some time at the large, clean, nice pool which we also had to ourselves. The owners and condo hosts shared ideas on what to do and where to visit and eat. We even met a few full-time residents who were very friendly and informative. We would definitely stay again.

Perfect spot for family of 4

We visited here in the middle of our week trip to the islands. The condo was accurately described in the listing. We did not take advantage of the kayaks because we were off doing other stuff, but we did swim in the pool and the kids (17f & 19m) hung out with some other youngsters they met on the beach for a bit. My husband spent much of the evenings just sitting on the balcony watching the water - most likely reflecting back to his time he spent at his grandparents' condo when he was a small child. The kids liked having separate beds in the loft that also had a 1/2 bath. Meaning that the four of us weren't always queuing up for one toilet. Having access to a washer was helpful for our trip as we only traveled with carry on luggage. The hostess helped get us settled in and had incredibly useful suggestions on where to eat and visit while we were on the island. My daughter at one point asked if she could meet the hostess because she sounded like such a sweet person. I was grateful for the advice that was offered. I would for sure stay here again. I do hope we get to visit again one day. St. Croix was my favorite island of the three we visited.
