Excellent views, condition and overall set up/layout. I would describe this property as "Extra" as the host has been incredibly thoughtful about what a family on vacation needs and wants. We spent several days at the house (pool days) and several days exploring the island. The host has everything you need for a day around the pool or to go to the beach (coolers, tumblers, towels, chairs, snorkel gear, umbrellas). Kitchen is professional grade stocked with everything you need/want. This is one of the best properties we have stayed at hands down! ##### Jon F.

From the moment of inquiry about the property until our departure, Laura went above and beyond in her hospitality. She was fantastic at answering questions, making suggestions and just offered a very elevated experience. The property was immaculate, had stunning views and gorgeous finishings.

Stayed 6 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### MARTY B. 2 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Incredible View and Home Vista del Mar is truly an exceptional vacation home. The house is tastefully decorated, outfitted with anything you could want or need, elegant yet comfortable, and the views are spectacular. One clear day we saw St. Thomas, St. John's and some BVIs. The outside pool, patio, fire pit and outdoor kitchen areas made it easy to relax and find privacy, even with a big family group. The location on St. Croix is above it all and still close to many beaches, restaurants, shopping and charter boats. Laura is a fantastic host, unobtrusive and yet available to help out as needed, from house info to restaurant and excursion intel. If you're going to St. Croix, this is a great choice for accommodation. ##### MARTY B.

The host was so helpful, thoughtful, and generous and made us feel attended to during this trip. Like it was a dreeeam. If you are considering this place, stop looking and BOOK IT!

It’s a beautiful, well-appointed home with spectacular views of the Caribbean and Buck Island. The property has everything you need - beautiful pool, a gas fire pit and grill, and plenty of outdoor seating, as well as beach chairs, beach towels, coolers, etc. The host, Laura, is always available if you need anything, and the property is very well maintained.

Laura welcomed us with open arms from the time we arrived at the airport and escorted us to the property. The pictures on the website are exactly what the property looks like on the inside. It was extremely clean, comfortable and very relaxing. Laura Parks you exceeded our expectations and we will be back sooner than later.

Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Derrick W. 16 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Best Experience Ever First of all Laura was a dream host. She was very attentive and found out it was my birthday and even baked me a chocolate cake which was delicious. The home description and pics online really doesn't do this home justice. I travel back to St. Croix pretty much every year and I must say that this home was perfect. From the curb appeal to to the outdoor kitchen to the little amenities and touches. It was perfect. And not to mention the best views we have had on the island. Our little visitor Lily (Laura's teacup poodle) was an adorable surprise to our stay. Laura did a great job designing and decorating. Will be returning for sure. ##### Derrick W. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer W. 24 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Breath taking amazing From the moment we walked in, the views and amenities were amazing! We were so impressed by the online pictures but nothing compared to the actual vista from all the rooms and outdoor spaces. Laura is the best host and so accommodating. She has thought of everything. The furniture is so clean and comfortable. The kitchen and pantry so well appointed that Gordon Ramsey couldn’t get upset. Beds were comfortable and left us well rested for the next day’s adventure. We could see the sunrise peaking over the hill and sunsets were spectacular. Outdoor dining and kitchen a perfect extension to the wow of the indoors. We can’t wait to book again!!! ##### Jennifer W. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristina G. 28 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The best vacation of our lives The house is immaculate and exactly as depicted. The views are stunning and Laura was a truly incredible host. We stayed the entire week of Thanksgiving and had cooking obligations for dinner. The house lacked absolutely nothing- fully stocked with every utensil possible which made cooking several dishes a breeze. Laura is so hands on and attentive is an understatement. She thought of everything, high end furniture, bug spray, blue tooth speakers, Margaritaville drink mixer! The 270° views were bar none. We won’t stay anywhere else on St. Croix. 10/10 stars! ##### Kristina G. Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristin B. 21 May 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Little slice of heaven in St. Croix We found our week long stay at Laura’s residence to be unforgettable! From the beautiful views, well groomed and colorful landscaping, the pool, fire pit and well stocked home, our stay was a perfect kid-free getaway for 3 couples! Laura was always eager to help us plan dinners out if needing suggestions or to answer any questions we may have had! We enjoyed a beach day with snorkeling in Fredrickested (Louie’s Nachos Bar), sunset dinner at AMA, Mother’s Day brunch at Caroline’s, a ferry ride to Hotel on the Cay for some beach bbq, a charted snorkel tour to Buck Island, and ended our week with another sunset dinner at Duggan’s Reef for Lobster! We came away from this vacation rested, happy and eager to plan our return. This property is a must stay when visiting St. Croix! You won’t be disappointed! ##### Kristin B. Stayed 6 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gail F., Roscoe IL 8 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### St. Croix Paradise Property was spotless and the decor was beautiful. Laura was easy to work with and answered all my questions. She met us upon arrival to make sure we could find the home the first time. Everything you could possibly need was provided, including pool and beach towels and beach chairs. We spent more time lounging at the home than we thought we would because it was so comfortable with the ocean breezes and views. There’s also a built in ice machine in the kitchen that we all loved and want now at home! We can’t wait to come back! It was a great week with friends and having this home to come back to was the icing on the cake! ##### Gail F. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Trish W. 3 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Another lovely stay at our own private resort This was our second stay at Vista Del Mar, and it was just as lovely as the first. The house is beautiful, bright, well maintained and with spectacular views and amenities (pool, firepit, decks, outdoor dining spot and grill). Lots of beach chairs, snorkel gear, etc. to help explore the island. One of us was sick with probable flu while there and Laura provided a little basket of helpful things like pain reliever, mouthwash, essential oils (for sinus congestion), and the like that helped us through the very inconveniently timed illness. Though I guess I'd rather let the sun and sea air help with recuperation than the dismal snow/rain/grey skies of home! Laura is very easy to get hold of and helpful in answering any questions, but not intrusive in the slightest. A perfectly charming host! ##### Trish W. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cecil H. 24 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing property! We were in St Croix with our older children (15-25) before Christmas and absolutely fell in love with this house and Laura. We’ve stayed in multiple rental homes on the island and this was far and away the nicest and most well equipped. I felt like Laura had thought of everything we might need during our trip and had it available for us. The house is beautiful, immaculately clean and the view is breathtaking. The kitchen is fully stocked and there is an outdoor kitchen and grill as well. We made breakfasts and dinners at the house and found absolutely everything we needed. The bedrooms and bathrooms are newly renovated, so comfortable and again, well equipped. I really cannot say enough good things about this property. We are hoping to come back again next year and stay longer! ##### Cecil H.

That was my initial reaction when I walked onto the property. It was even better than the pictures online. Everything about this place was top notch. No details were skipped in making this an amazing getaway... everything you would ever want from a home away from home was provided. The attention to detail was impressive. The beds were so comfortable! The views were amazing no matter where I stood on the property. Our family enjoyed the beautiful pool and loved being able to cook out and enjoy the outside dining area. The owner was as gracious and kind of a host as anyone could ever want. This is easily one of the most beautiful places I ever stayed with my family. I highly recommend the Vista del Mar! Five Stars all the way! ##### Laramie L. Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heather w. 14 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### STUNNING Laura was a phenomenal host. Her home was well stocked with everything you could possibly need (and more!). She left us a sweet welcome gift, guided us through the house when we arrived, and was always available with suggestions for things to do and see on the island. (Note: She lives on the property but unless we reached out to her she was unnoticeable.) You can NOT beat the views and comfort her home provides. 10/10 would stay again. You will not be disappointed. (Final thought- the drive to her home is a bit rocky and kind of steep, so I recommend renting a jeep or something similar that can handle the road. BUT TOTALLY WORTH IT!!!) ##### Heather w. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Emily V. 18 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Absolutely the best VRBO ever!! Laura’s place is nothing short of amazing. She thinks through all of the extra special details like the welcome drink and the robes and slippers and down to the logistics like shampoo/conditioner/body wash, soap, paper towels, tissues, dishwasher tabs, etc. You will want for nothing! Check in was great, as Laura met us near the home and led us up the hill to the place. She gave us amazing food recommendations and we enjoyed everything: The pool and outdoor areas are amazing - tons of place to sit and tools for an outdoor BBQ around the fire pit. And the views - literally amazing! You cannot beat this place. If for some reason you’re on the fence, you should absolutely book this without any hesitation. When we return to STX we won’t stay anywhere else! The pictures truly don’t do the place justice! Thank you, Laura! Can’t wait to come back soon! ##### Emily V.
