Beautiful Views
Incredible views of the ocean, seconds to the beach (walking), literally EVERYTHING you need to include beach toys, professional quality snorkel equipment, towels, etc. Kitchen is very well appointed with plenty of cookware, spices, plates, and drink equipment. Tonnes of room for a family of six as well. Highly recommend! Helene was wonderful and meet us with fresh mangos to boot.

Wonderful vacation
We were greeted by Helene and her husband and they gave us a tour of the property. The property is beautiful and the neighborhood is quiet. The house is located about 20 minutes from plaza east (market) and 35 minutes from some of St. Croix most beautiful beaches. I think this is the perfect location for a family that wants privacy yet not to far from the excitement.

Perfect Location
Perfect vacation! We loved our stay, everything was clean and working. Helene was incredible and made sure we had everything we could possibly need. She came almost every day to do things for us. The local beach had seaweed but we wanted to get out and explore all the other beautiful beaches anyway. It was the best trip!

Amazing Location and Views
The house was very average for the amount of time we actually spent in the house (we slept and had breakfast, otherwise we were off exploring the island). It gave us a place to sleep and shower comfortably, however there was a lack of charm. If you have Verizon- you’ll get zero cell reception, and the WiFi wasn’t great. Minimal working appliances (dishwasher not great, blenders didn’t work). The pool and outdoor space were incredible.

Great Vacation
Property manager provides privacy, professional, and was sympathetic, we had a good time. The property is spacious. The beach on the south side wasn’t accessible due to sea weeds issues, but the north side beaches were enjoyable. It’s cheaper buying food from the local people and farmers then the supermarkets. Overall I would recommend this place to others.

Beautiful view/quiet
Positives: Helene was extremely helpful, met us at the airport and had our taxi follow her to the villa. She resolved a WiFi issue quickly. The view overlooking the sea was spectacular! Pool was about 16’ x 40’, we used it every day. Nice large kitchen and bedrooms. Negatives: A bit far from the airport, a $90 cab ride for 3 adults one way. Also a $60 cab ride, one way, to Chrisiansted to the boardwalk, restaurants/bars, shops. Consider renting a car if you stay at this property. All in all we had a nice, relaxing stay at a beautiful location.

Great Vacation Villa
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this villa. It was very easy to communicate with the owners and they were so helpful. The home was more spacious than we expected and was well equipped for preparing meals. We used the beautiful pool area every day. The pool is large and though not heated, it was quite refreshing! The entire pool deck is huge with plenty of seating and places that offered shade. The views of the sea are amazing and so were the sounds of the waves. We would definitely rent this villa again.

Stop......look no more. This Villa has everything and more. The view, the pool,the kitchen is well equipped, beautiful decor and close to great restaurants. The owners Martin and Helene were such gracious hosts. They were so helpful with everything even when our flight cancelled let us stay an extra night. I can't say enough about them. They treated us like family in every way. I would highly recommend this Villa. We have stay in many villas on all the islands and this one is great.

Birthday Celebration
Our family of 5 called this location home for six (6) days to celebrate my birthday. Then owner met us, gave us a tour, was very thorough with details and even brought us sweet mangos. Then house provided more than enough space for our needs and was well stocked with many items. The kids loved the pool just as much as I did and also the view. There are a few visitors on the property (iguanas and deer) and we were able to get pictures and videos of them as well. My only small complaint is the area does not have the best cell phone service signal. Our family of 5 use 4 different cell phone service providers and most of us had issues with either making/receiving calls, making/receiving text, and access to webpages.

Wonderful home with movie screen views
Helen and her husband were very kind and welcoming. They met us at the property and showed us around. They even dropped off a few coconuts for us to sample after we arrived. The home is spacious, inviting, and the views are to die for. Fans and ac units in every room, plenty of towels and huge kitchen make your stay inviting. Wifi, cell service , and TV were spotty at best but me and my family enjoyed the time to deconnect and enjoy the beautiful island. We spent the majority of our time visiting the different beaches around the island, but when we were home the pool and deck is where we stayed. The pool is clean and the water was nice. The deck is huge with the most amazing views. We ate all our meals outside enjoying the breeze and the sound of the waves. The local beach had a ton of seaweed during our stay but a quick trip in any direction had plenty of different options. The east side of the island is great, very relaxing with very few people on any of the beaches we visited. Also great food options minutes away. I would highly recommend this place for anyone visiting st croix!

Paradise
We loved our visit to St. Croix, and our stay at the Aqua Blue Villa. It was absolutely beautiful. The view is breathtaking! The only reason for the 4 stars versus 5 stars is that there are a few repairs that need to be done for minor things. There was an issue when we first arrived, but Martin and Helene were quick to make sure that it was taken care of. We would definitely love to return for another visit! The pool was so much fun, and the house had everything we needed. We really enjoyed all the extras from pool toys, to soaps, shampoos, and a very well stocked kitchen. We were given a fruit basket and bottle of rum by Helene & Martin, that we used to make wonderful rum punch drinks! Visiting Buck Island for snorkeling, Udall Point, the Rum distillery tour, and the beer drinking pigs in the rain forest, are all some of the things you should put on your to-do list. Angry Nates, The Buccaneer, and The Palms resort are very good places to eat. The Casino is very close by as well as a good pizza place. You definitely need a car to get around as the villa is located in a more remote area. But, it is well worth the extra drive. It is definitely paradise!!

Another Fabulous Stay At The Aqua Blue Villa
This was our second trip to the Island and stay at the Aqua Blue Villa. It was like being away for a year and going home again. I wondered if the second time around at the Aqua Blue Villa would be as great as the first time. I have to say, that the second time was even better on so many levels. The fact that we knew how to get to the villa on our own and where to shop for groceries made our trip even more relaxing. The addition of a A/C in the Main living area made all the difference in the world. The property was as expected, Clean, well stocked, and very comfortable. Arriving at the Aqua Blue Villa this year, we thought we would get out more...but again we spent the first three day at the villa, relaxing and enjoying the property, taking our morning walks, enjoying the views of the area. After visiting more of the island this time, we have concluded that the South Slob Area, where the Aqua Blue Villa is located, is the most beautiful part of the island.. We were treated to a spectacular event this year of seeing hundreds of thousands of yellow butterflies flying across the property everyday from about 9am to 3pm....You can' t help but think, that the Aqua Blue Villa is just a magical place in a great location. Again most of our time was spent outside in the pool area. Helene was great as ever...seeing her again was like visiting an old friend. The welcome basket of fruit and rum was excellent. When I return again, I will stay at the Aqua Blue Villa...for me, there is no other place to stay...Aqua Blue Villa is truly my Home away from Home. Thanks again Helene...I will be returning

Beautiful home with terrific views and everything you need!
We stayed at Aqua Blue for 10 nights earlier this month on our first (but not last!) trip to St. Croix. Helene and (Martin) Massicott were helpful and easy to deal with when planning our trip. They met us at the airport to lead us to the villa which in hindsight was extremely helpful, since they drive on the left down there it was much easier to have someone to follow, not to mention it took us a few days to get our bearings. The house located just past the Divi Carina Bay resort and the Casino on the east end of the island. We enjoyed being outside of town, but a car is definitely required. One thing we found very useful is that there are signs all over the island pointing to the casino, so getting home after adventuring was always pretty easy. The views from the villa and on the drive to/from are breathtaking! Pretty much every time we rounded the corner at Turner Hole we were awestruck by the scenery. The villa itself had everything we needed - plenty of towels/linens, fully stocked kitchen, some essentials in the pantry from previous guests, plenty of seating inside and out, pool toys/floats, washer & dryer, etc.. There were lots of left behind bottles of sunscreen and bugspray in the half-bath which came in handy since we didn't go shopping the first night we arrived. We happened to be there during the Geminids meteor shower and getting to lay in the pool while looking up at the night sky with shooting stars streaming by every few minutes was spectacular! The views during the day were impressive as well and you can hear the ocean from the villa which was great! We enjoyed walking around the grounds and seeing all the wildlife (small lizards, geckos, iguanas, deer, butterflies, hummingbirds, etc..) while we stayed there. Helene and Massicott were both very friendly and we felt they were just the sort of folks you want to rent from, available if needed, but not imposing. They left a big fruit basket and bottle of rum to welcome us to the villa and even dropped off a couple coconuts for us to enjoy (read: make rum drinks with). Thank you for a wonderful experience, we look forward to visiting again!

`What a Fabulous Place to Stay
From the moment you step foot inside the front door and look through the back end of the house double doors and see the pool and ocean, you know that you made the right decision with this house. The views are amazing and the feel of comfort is also amazing. This house has everything you could ever dream of for Caribbean living. Helene and Martin were wonderful people...Our luggage did not arrive with us and was going to come in on a later flight 4 hours later...Helene offered to wait with us at the airport until it arrived...but we decided it would be better to go on to the house and come back later for our luggage...Helene and Martin made us feel at home and took us from running 100 mph to a more relaxing Caribbean state of mind. We took early morning walks daily...enjoying the views and soaking in Island living. The location is perfect, It's private, away from it all but yet close enough to do all that you want. We searched every property on the Island when deciding were to stay and could not find anything close to what this property offers. To give you an Ideal of how wonderful this Villa is...we did not leave the Villa for three and a half days...we had everything we needed there. We would ask each other often...do you want to get out and do something...and we would give each other a look that said...NO...I'm doing just fine right here. When we finally got out and toured the island and other things...the best part was getting back to the Villa. Little did we know when we booked this Villa, that we would spend 85 percent of our time outside on the deck and pool area...soaking up the morning and evening sun with the views of the ocean...what a wonderful place that was well thought out and planned. The welcome fruit basket and bottle of rum was very thoughtful and nice... I could go on and on about this Villa...I'm already dreaming about staying there again...and of course like many other guest have mentioned before, the hardest thing is leaving...wow...I'm counting the days before I return. A Fabulous place, in a Fabulous location.

We Enjoyed the pool day and night temperature was perfect. But Pool is in great need of repair stairs are terrible. Everything in the house is functional but needs updating. Helene was absolutely wonderful to us even brought us coconuts to make cocktails with! There is a fabulous breeze so we just opened up the house and enjoyed the fresh air! We loved walking the beach every day also enjoyed the casino a couple times. We love St Croix!

Peacefull & Relaxing
My family recently spent the holidays in St Croix. We have 3 teenage girls and wanted a property that gave everyone some space and a pool to use when we had some downtime. This was a great property for that. When we were at the property, we spent most of our time on the pool deck. Great views of the sunrise and sea. You can listen to the waves lapping on the beach below. Just a really great, peaceful location. The house had everything we needed and more. Martin and Helen were great hosts and had everything prepared for our arrival. We had a great time and really enjoyed the property.

READ THIS REVIEW BEFORE RENTING!
We just returned from a week vacation on St. Croix and unfortunately this villa ruined our vacation ! This villa is an absolute dump. It is nothing like the pics on the listing, because the pics were taken 18 years ago when the villa was built. The owner admitted that. The owners have obviously done very little to maintain this villa. The furniture you see now was there from the beginning. Anything metal is rusted and corroding from the salt air. The windows and doors don’t open and close properly. Many of the lamps and lights either don’t work or need new bulbs. There are no functioning fire alarms. The pool lights are out and the furniture is cheap and the cushions are ripped and torn. There was not one bar of soap. We had to go to the store the next morning to buy some. The linens are a joke. I have better in my garage. They had hotel samples of shampoo and conditioner bottles that were either partially used or empty. Disgusting! The worst problem, however, was the villa is infested by ants and cockroaches, and when I called the owners to complain, she blamed them on us! She did nothing about it. We had to move out of the separate bedroom because of the them. I took my family, in particular my aged mom, for what we thought was going to be a fantastic Caribbean vacation in a 4-5 star villa. Instead, our vacation and probably my moms last vacation was ruined by this place. Some locals told us this villa is known as the party villa. The owners have not properly maintained this villa. All they care about is making as much money as they can. And their listing is very deceiving. The pictures are from 18 years ago. . I have so much more I can say about just how bad this villa is and I have many pics and videos to prove what I am saying. With taxes and VRBO’s fee this villa cost me alot! The most I have ever paid in my life. I did so because I wanted this vacation to be extra special for my mom. Instead this villa and vacation was a nightmare. PLEASE LISTEN TO ME AND DON’T RENT THIS VILLA! I don’t want this to happen to anyone else!
