Rest Awhile at Sugar Beach. Ideal for families. Pay for 1 BR, get the 2nd free

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.

Decent place but not the best experience
Clean and nice view from 3rd floor condo. Sugar beach was pretty secluded and residents were always friendly and helpful. Location was good and only a short drive to Christiansted. Property owner was quick to respond and address issues. Condo is listed as two bedrooms but most of our trip we couldn’t use the loft. The roof was leaking overtop one of the twin beds so that had to be addressed on night one. It was too hot up there to sleep without AC or fan going constantly. Power cut off multiple times a day. One day it was out for almost 6 hours. We ended up going out more than we intended bc of it. No flashlights or batteries until a few days into the trip. Thankfully we had cell phones with lights and rented a car so we were able to charge our phones. Bedroom fan sounded like it was going to fall out of the ceiling. Property manager said it needed to be removed and reinstalled. While on vacation I want the luxury of electricity. I will be staying at a place with a generator next time.

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.

Nice place to rejuvenate.
Steps away from beautiful beach, convenient to everything and quiet. This is just minutes from Christian stead and sights and dining. Everything is included in the condo you need. Not a fancy place but perfectly functional.

Beautiful stay in St. Croix
Gorgeous views, good accommodations with some very minor exceptions. Overall, condo had everything we needed, and hosts were quick to respond to questions before our trip (no issues/questions arise during our stay that required communication). Much appreciated were the available beach towels and boogie boards. Also available, though we did not use, was snorkeling equipment, kayak, and sand toys. We found the mattress to be hard but all other accommodations were very comfortable. Slightly concerning was our inability to lock the sliding doors to the balcony and in the bedroom but we never felt unsafe. Loved sitting on the balcony each night and listening to the waves. Definitely found a car necessary and glad we had one. Beach is fantastic and well maintained. Very minor beach complaint (no fault of owners or condo complex) regarding horse training/racing that occurred twice during our stay, which was worrisome for our 5-year-old who was playing in the surf. Riders appeared local and came down to beach from condo property to the east. The other owners we encountered at the pool (which was great, too!) and on the beach were incredibly friendly and offered helpful advice. Our son loved the complex cats, who were very sweet and sociable. Restaurant at the complex to the west was unfortunately closed during our stay, but we ate at Le Cuisinier, to the west, and had an incredible meal. Overall, a fantastic stay and we’d highly recommend to others!

Nice place to unwind
Love the stay at remtal condo i was able to fish, kayak and swim in the beach with my family without worring about rip currents, The location of sugar beach was over seeing the reef. Which make it convenient no rip tide pulling you out to the sea unlike the rest of the beaches on the island which is open ocean and rocky.

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!

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
