You have internet surfed to one of the most fabulous and affordable oceanfront villas in the Caribbean. Rainbow Cove is pure Caribbean 'barefoot' luxury, which the owner opens to visitors when not in residence.

Just steps away from the main house is a uniquely whimsical and charming guest cottage with a one bedroom loft. This cottage is included when over 4 guests are staying, or by request. (if under 4 guests, the property will still only be rented to one group at a time, so you will still have the place to yourselves!) Both the main house and the guest house feature their own refreshing pools and an outdoor shower by the cottage plunge pool. . All the bedrooms have air conditioning as well as the “Great Room” in the main quarters. Virtually no amenity has been over looked. There are restaurants, hotel, casino, sandy beaches, and great snorkeling close by. This is an adult rental and we do not rent to children aged toddler to 7 years old.

This was my first time visiting St Croix. This property is absolutely gorgeous and looks even better in person. The sunsets were picturesque and the two private pools were fantastic for cooling off. Communication with the property managers was very easy. The property itself is located on the East end of the Island, about a 20min drive to Christiansted and 30min drive to the airport. I’d highly recommend this property and would stay here again.

Loved our time at Rainbow Cove! A unique property that offers stunning views and great amenities. Very private. We split our time between snorkeling out front and snorkeling on the west end, but we were always happy to come back to such a comfortable place to stay. Countless sea turtles and iguanas entertained us each day. Communication with property managers was fantastic. Highly recommend for a unique island getaway!

Rainbow Cove is a luxurious place to stay in St. Croix. While the pictures provided are amazing...the place is even more magical in person. The details in this home are spectacular!
I took my two young adult children...ages 20 and 18. My daughter and I stayed in the main house, and my son stayed in the cottage. We each enjoyed our own private spaces, and when together, we hung out at the pools, in the kitchen, on deck over looking the water, or watching a movie together.
While the home is bit of a drive to most things on island, I found island easy to navigate. It was always nice to come back to spend time relaxing in comfort.
The owners were very communicative when I had a question, as was the property manager. He checked in multiple times during our stay plus stopped by to check on pools. I was appreciative of both as it was obvious they want their guests to feel at home while on vacation.
I highly recommend Rainbow Cove! One of the best homes we have stayed anywhere in the world!

Rainbow Cove was a gorgeous villa with a gorgeous view. Up on a cliff but could still hear the ocean. We spent a ton of time watching the turtles below come up for air. At least 5 turtles all the time. Pelicans were also constant visitors. We had a minor issue the first day of our stay and the owners were super responsive. Excellent hosts! Would stay here again for sure!!!

Wow! The pictures do not do this home justice. Words cannot articulate the beauty and the peace that wrap around you when you step thru the gorgeous wood doors. I could go on and on - but really just encourage a stay to experience yourself.
The owner went out once for an hour which we took full advantage of by the pool where we all fell asleep with the sound of crashing waves and cool breezes.
More than the home - St Croix is beautiful and home to extremely nice locals. In all my travels , I’ve never fallen in love with the people like I did here.

Nice quiet location. Perfect for 2-4 people who like relax by the pool and explore the island with rental car.

Our first visit to Sr Croix and definitely not our last. The place was true to description and even better. Comfortable and beautiful accommodations. Clean and nicely decorated with all amenities. Plush bath towels, soft linens. The view of the ocean cannot be topped, and the constant sound of the waves was so nice to wake up to and sleep to at night. I loved watching the sea turtles from the pool patio and watching the stars at night. .Our communication with the host was super easy and they were quick to reply with any questions we may have had throughout our stay. I would highly recommend this place if you are looking for a real escape to Paradise.

Perfect Villa. Views for miles with abundant sea life, quiet location, immaculately clean, comfortable beds and large amount of kitchen amenities. We have stayed in many beautiful villas on St. Croix and this is one of the best.

This house was better than the pictures showed. The two bedrooms are on separate end of the house which is nice and each has their own bathroom attached. The kitchen was fully stocked and Internet speed was better than in the US. Breathtaking views from every balcony, the living room, kitchen, and dining room. Loved watching the turtle loved watching the turtles, iguanas, and the pelicans every morning and every morning with our cup of coffee. The waves were very soothing at night. And stargazing was amazing.

Our family stayed the week at Rainbow Cove and we will DEFINITELY come back! The home is beautiful, the view is beautiful, and we just relaxed for a week. The pelicans provide good morning entertainment and the iguanas will come for a visit at the pool just about daily. You will want to take the beds home with you, they are so comfortable!! We completely enjoyed our stay and would HIGHLY recommend Rainbow Cove.

We have stayed in many VRBO through the years and this one ranks right at the top! It's absolutely an amazing property with wonderful views and easy private access. I cannot say enough good things about the house itself, it's appointed very well and I love it's classy beach vibe. There are two pools on the property, tucked into the landscaping and surrounding home, really just amazing. Do not hesitate to book and if you do, count yourself lucky as this vacation home is the best!

Property was just as listed. Drinking coffee in the morning while watching turtles swim was very relaxing. If you stay here you need to find Smugglers Beach, very short drive from the home. Its a fantastic spot to enjoy the sun, waves and a cold tasty beverage. Also make sure you book a snorkel trip to Buck Island. Thank you for sharing your home.

We've stayed in many upscale homes over the years. Several on STJ. This was our first visit to STX. This home was the best equipped and maintained upper end home We've ever experienced. Many times images of these homes over sell or are from another time in years past. Not this home. Very accurately described in listing. Impressive appointments include:
A/C in Living Area.
Functional safe steps down the other seashore.
Viking and Sub Zero appliances.
Plush, spotless linens and provided main brand soaps and shampoos, etc.
Full assortment of clean, modern secondary kitchen appliances.
Move in ready consumables so that you're comfortable from your first night. (Coffee, cooking oil, spices, etc.)
The home fully locks and has security gate and alarm system.
The in-island manager Cole is quick and intelligent to respond to any questions.
The home rest only 30 feet above the shoreline w unrestricted views. The sound of the waves are beautifully constant. The pool has full ocean view, yet is completely private and out of view to anyone else. At least four separate outdoor seating areas w open sea views. Typically only took us 16-18 minutes to drive to Christiansted along the beautiful northern route (much prettier than the southern route)
We wish this is the way all owners presented their properties. Well done you all. We are grateful to have discovered you and hope to return soon.

Beautiful property. Not close to anything, really, but the views made it worth the slight inconvenience. Nicely decorated.
Property manager/owner should update info (short an apple tv remote, no volume control in bedroom tv, no clock radio with chargers in bedrooms, not a 3 bed/3 bath rental unless you have more than 4 guests, no working security system—although instructions said to set when gone, etc.), but didn’t really impact our stay.
Clean and comfortable. Would stay again!

We really enjoyed our stay at this fabulous property. The house was outstanding, pool areas were great and the views are spectacular. Will definitely be returning to this house. Many thanks, The Eades

Rainbow Cove is absolutely amazing. Absolutely amazing!! The property is right above the ocean break which gave us continual waves and sea animals to enjoy. Leatherback turtle’s frolicked daily, dolphin sightings, and pelicans diving for food. The kitchen is packed with everything you can imagine. We wanted for very little. Beds are extremely comfortable and house immaculate. Kelsey and Cole were there for our every question, very helpful and caring. The guest house was so cute and cozy. Jammed packed with essentials.
Remember that we are three older ladies when I say that we did have to be careful to navigate the steps throughout the property but this did not hamper our awe of this estate. Would come back here a million times over..

We have had many prior VBRO stays and this was the best. It is a stunning location on tbe Ocean near Grape Tree Bay and the most beatiful unspoiled beaches in the Carribean. The owner has paid close attention to both large and small details that enhanced our stay. I only hope this review doesnt result in our not being able to rent this property in the future.

This property exceeded all expectations for our St. Croix vacation and deserved 5 stars on everything. The views were incredible at all times of the day and the villa was well set up for three couples. The amenities were perfect and we appreciated how responsive the property manager was. I cannot recommend this property high enough.
5.0
As the titles suggests, this property is a “Waterfront Villa Paradise”! The home is beautiful and has been furnished luxuriously — there was nothing we needed that wasn’t there already. But the best thing of all — the view! High atop a hill with stairs leading down to the ocean, the Caribbean blue sea and the sound of the waves, kept us in paradise for the entire stay.
You’ll definitely need a car. Other than a nearby resort/casino, restaurants, groceries and sights are located 5 - 15 minutes away on the north side of the island.
This home deserves the 5-star rating. See for yourself and enjoy living in paradise.

Spent Christmas holiday at this beautiful house overlooking the bluff on the bay, tastefully decorated for the holidays ! No beach here but you can walk down to the water and snorkel or swim with the turtles ! Gorgeous view! Great sunsets! Completely stocked with everything we needed including beach towels! Swam in the bay, watched the iguanas who visited us often, enjoyed the pool daily! Ate out and cooked in, daily breakfast and cooked several dinners. We had 6 adults and used the cottage as well as the main house. Just a lovely Caribbean well appointed home . Internet and phone service perfect. Watched Christmas movies! Cable available. We toured Buck Island, went deep sea fishing, hiked Tidal Pools, Lyric Sunset Sails, visited Sonya’s for the signature jewelry…… and did so much more! You MUST have a Jeep or SUV to get anywhere as it’s about a 15 minute drive to Christiansted. We drove somewhere every day. Only one negative , and that is the checkout time isn’t 11 as stated on the website AND the contract. Cleaners texted at 9:30 day of departure and wanted us out at 10! Didn’t see the text. They showed up , and we weren’t ready. Tried to show him the contract said 11 but he insisted there was a BIG GROUP ( says limit is 6 people which was our party ‘s size) coming in , and they needed to start early. Actually began cleaning the pool while we finished packing. ! We were able to get out by 10:30, but flight didn’t leave until 4:18 , and we had nowhere to go with all our luggage ( and they tell you not to leave valuables in the car and to leave it unlocked)! Except for that one hiccup, we LOVED this home. Would not hesitate to go back here! Beautiful place.!

This beautiful home is just as described. Our family of 5 (including our "children" ages 17, 19 and 21) had a truly wonderful vacation here to ring in the New Year! The view is stunning. The amenities were perfect. Our on island contact was very responsive to and helpful with all of our questions. We hope to return in the future!

We had a wonderful week at Rainbow Cove. Our party consisted of my wife and I and our two children 26 and 23. The house, guest house and grounds are even better than the pictures. The pools are wonderful. The landscaping is lush. The view is outstanding. Everything about the house is high end. Driveway is a bit of a challenge but my son drove and he has a CDL so no issues. The house is not close to a grocery or restaurants, (20-25 minutes) so stocking up is important. This is really no problem because once you are in the gates you will not want to leave. We ate one meal out and basically spent the week at the house enjoying the pools and the views. Very relaxing. Looking forward to a return trip in the future. Recommend highly. We travel a lot as a family and this is one of our very favorite accommodations we have rented.

Our family of four (daughters age 11 & 8) stayed a week in late July. Vacation was relaxing and low key. The house was perfect for us (we did not need/use the guest cottage). We’d spend morning and early afternoons exploring the beaches/beach bars/snorkeling around the island and would end the day at the house pool overlooking the ocean. Enjoyed all of the benefits of being on the beach but without the sand! House was well stocked. COVID seems to have taken a toll on some of the island’s restaurant staffing (several were closed as well). A short drive to Ziggy’s market and Castaways for lunch or dinner. Ziggy’s Sunday brunch was a must try! Rental Car was also necessary! Would definitely book again!

My family and I just returned from a 10 day stay at this beautiful home.
We enjoyed everything about our time here beginning with the friendly and extremely helpful folks who care for the home and its guests. They walked us through upon arrival and offered abundant insider advice about St. Croix. Wendy and Cole were easy to contact and quick to respond.
The home is clean and in excellent repair. It looks exactly like the photos in real life and provided comfort as well as luxury in its appointments and provisions.
We truly appreciated the privilege of traveling to a beautiful location like St. Croix. The opportunity to stay at the Waterfront Villa Paradise was one my family and I will treasure always. Thank you!

We had such a nice time in St. Croix. The property manager was great to work with, answered all of our questions and was VERY accommodating. We absolutely loved the villa and we will be booking another trip to St. Croix this winter and will stay at Rainbow Cove again, if it is available.
