About this property
Gentle Winds, St. Croix, U.S.V.I. - come unwind!
Our condo is located at Gentle Winds, a 65 unit development located on the North Shore of St. Croix. Gentle Winds is built on 66 acres of ocean front property with spectacular views from all units. The popular dive spot named West Wall is located just off the front beach where two dive boats can be seen anchoring for their guests to enjoy their mid morning or mid afternoon dives. We are within a 5 minute walk, under 1/4 mile, to the Salt River Marina.
The beachfront has a beautiful sandy beach with palm trees and plenty of lounge chairs to pull into the sun or pull under a palm lined cabana for some shade. There is a roped off section for swimming - take your mask and snorkel to discover some colorful local coral fish.
The Beach Shack serves a delicious burger and lentil salad which I highly recommend while you are enjoying your rum drink or iced cold beer.
If you want some activity on the property before relaxing ocean side, try a game of tennis, a (short) round of golf, ping pong or Shuffleboard. Or go into town to compete with one of the local crab races to win prizes!
This property is well maintained - see if you can find the man trimming the coconut palms and kindly ask if he would pull out his machete to serve up some fresh fresh fresh coconut milk. (( nice to offer a tip for his troubles...))
Our condo has all of the island amenities : refrigerator/ stove / microwave / washer dryer / Wifi / INDUSTRIAL ICE MAKER and flat screen t.v.... so come on to the island and relax for a week or two! Rebra Ellidge is our local property manager. Rebra can be reached on island on this cell line: 305-395-2627
NEW PALM TREE WALKING TOUR: I wanted to share a new section of the Gentle Winds web site, the Gentle Winds Palm Tree Guide and Walking Tour. The photo guide charts a walking tour of the 15 varieties of palm trees at Gentle Winds. The 3/4 mile walk starts at the main entrance, winds around the buildings, and ends at the Great Room.

Gentle Winds is the best place on the island for families. We were returning guests to the complex, first time to this particular unit. Everything was great! We especially enjoyed the view of the pool and the ocean.
amenities were great. condo was bright, clean, and extremely well taken care of. beds were comfortable with bedrooms having lots of storage. we will be back.
We came to Gentle Winds with our daughters and their families. The grandkids are already planning (and hoping) for a trip back! The couple no was very well equipped for a young family. We would rent it again
We had a wonderful time on our vacation! The beach was all that we could hope for - fed our souls! Snorkeling was fabulous! Relaxing, comfortable, beautiful and wonderful!
The owner of this property was so helpful and made great recommendations for places to eat, things to do and places to visit! Our family of 7 had plenty of room in this condo and we loved the pool and beach and on site food shack. St. Croix has some of the prettiest water we have ever seen.
Wonderful time in St. Croix. Enjoyed pool side and beach. Great food and drinks at the pool. Everyone was very friendly. Property amazing and the beds were so comfortable. Everything we needed was right there.
our recent stay was perfect the unit clean and well apportioned. responded when call on very helpful property manager was great reference to all operational needs.
Our stay was wonderful! The condo was super clean and we loved all the amenities. We enjoyed playing the games there and reading some good books. Our deck had a beautiful view of the pool. Both our owner and the manager were very communicative and helpful. The air conditioning was top notch. Thanks for having us!
We don't know whether late August was off season or the week after Ernesto kept people away but we had the place to ourselves. Nice pool, bar/lunch shack, empty beach and a clean condo - all was wonderful. Scuba dived and snorkeled the entire week. We stayed a few nights at the Carambola resort but the condo was much cleaner and more relaxing. Highly recommend!
The condo is great overall! Great location, Pam was so easy to work with and answered all my questions promptly.
The condo well appointed, clean, comfortable. The only thing that was not great was that the two downstairs bedrooms did not get very cool at night even with the ac on. Glad we had the fans in our room. The main areas and upstairs had no issue but those two bedrooms got very warm!
It was a perfect week at Gentle Winds in St. Croix
Everything about our trip to St. Croix was amazing from start to finish. Pam was the perfect host during our first family trip to the Caribbean.
The condo and property were exactly as shown in the listing and had everything we needed for our stay..including beach towels, beach bags, and a few other items that we did not bring.
Pam provided suggestions for everything from restaurants to activities while on the island.
We loved having the Beach Shack on the property so that we could enjoy lunch, dinner and cocktails without leaving the beautiful beach.
All in all, it was a great week and Pam was a wonderful, responsive host. We will definitely be back!!
We so enjoy Pam's condo...maybe except for the winding
staircase. The entry to Gentle Winds is beautiful. The location seems to work well for everything we like to do.
Roads are just awful and have to be an observant driver, but we handled that all very well.
The Condo has 3 new and great bathrooms. The House manager is amazing and very thoughtful. I could only
suggest she may drop in the second week of a visit for a
quick floor clean up.....sand seems to accumulate everyday on the white floors. Hard to keep up while on vacation. We love this place and and have been there several times and plan to go back again. Lots of people there this time, but very quiet and pleasant around us.All and all a great experience that I would highyrecommend.
The amenities were awesome. Our only complaints are only observations FYI. The microwave handle was broken BEFORE we arrived, but it did not affect the function of said microwave. The key to the deadbolt lock did not work, but we felt very safe and welcomed. Lisa, at the beach snack shack makes a mean Shrimp Quesadilla. The grounds keeper was kind enough to educate me on bird calls (Blue Pigeon) and what a hibiscus looks like BEFORE it flowers. Our group had a super terrific time cooking meals on the stove after purchasing items from the conveniently located super market. Pothole are in abundance OUTSIDE of the confines of Gentle Winds. I pray that the citizens can rally to get the issue addressed. Gentle Winds gets a 5 of 5 rating from the “Betty Boop” group❣️
Gentle Winds in St. Croix is an absolutely beautiful property and the owners of this unit could not have Ben nicer or more accommodating. The unit itself has everything a family needs to enjoy the area and was very clean.
This is our 3rd stay at the property and were so happy to come back. The place is stocked with all the essentials, the property manager is very friendly and welcoming on our arrival. Love that the pool and beach is a quick little walk away. Gentle awinds is simply lovely.
We enjoyed our stay at Gentle Winds, which is the best property on St Croix in my opinion. The condo had three bedrooms, which was fantastic for our group. We loved the beach and the pool and the grounds are well cared for. We have stayed at Gentle Winds three times now and every time it's been great.
Very calm and relaxing. Beautiful beach and pool within short walking distance from our condo. Location of condo's were convenient to everywhere on the island. Our family of eight had a wonderful, memorable vacation. Would definitely recommend this setting for anyone looking for a great getaway.

A wonderful relaxing vacation
Gentle Winds is a beautiful relaxing vacation site with a charming beach bar, pool, and amazing views from the Condo. Condo L2 had everything we needed and the artwork and decor were lovely. Highly recommend.
Our second visit in 2 years. Lovely condo with great views. Property is very well maintained and we were happy to see that the poolside grill is back up and running after hurricane destroyed in 2017.
Our family had a great week at Gentle Winds in the last week of June 2022. The townhome was well stocked with just about anything you could need on vacation... board games, towels, beer coozies, etc. The Gentle Winds property could not be a better place to have a fun / relaxing family vacation. The facilities are great, the pool was right by the beach and there was also a fantastic patio bar / restaurant that served delicious food and pool drinks every afternoon.
Wonderful vacation on the beach! Fun in the sun, swimming and snorkeling. Very friendly atmosphere on a great property. Also very nice tennis and pickleball courts. Played pickleball every morning. Great way to start the day. Close proximity to great beaches. Fabulous week on the beach!!
