What a wonderful place to stay on Water Island. We actually spent our first night in St. Thomas in the Presidential Suite at the Marriott and all agreed we preferred Windswept. The couple that manages the property for the owners was fantastic to deal with, met us at the ferry dock on time, helped us with our luggage and anything we needed during the week. The owners of the condo were incredible to deal with right from the first contact to the handwritten thank you note we had waiting for us when we arrived back home.

It was my wife and I and our 8 and 10 year old daughters on this trip and the condo was perfectly appointed for us. The beds are comfortable. The house has A/C only in the bedrooms but even in the middle of Summer you didn't need it elsewhere in the house. The breezes are magnificent and keep you cool and keep the bugs away. The pool was great and the kids spent most of the time we were at the condo in it. The condo has wonderful sweeping views of the Atlantic and the Caribbean from each side and St. Thomas in the background. There is not an amazing view from any angle. The house is appointed with great furnishings and actually had spices and some cooking staples, which was really nice as there are no restaurants not the island. We got all of our food from the small store at the Crown Bay Marina. It was half as fresh and 3 times as expensive as normal but you can't beat the convenience.

We took the golf cart down to Honeymoon beach most days by late morning and usually stayed until Sunset. All of our new friends at Heidi's set us up with an account for the week so that we didn't even need to remember to bring money to the beach with us and we ate their great food and tasty drinks all week while the kids played in the sand and swam in the warm and very calm water of Honeymoon beach. Other than the times the tour groups were docked at the beach, there were often only a handful of other people there. Sunsets were amazing.

We also took the owners recommendation to have Captain Joe take us out on his boat for a half day of snorkeling at Buck's island. He picked us up right at the Ferry dock on Water island. This was a great alternative to the crowded party boats that you have to go to St. Thomas for. Captain Joe was filled with great info and gave us a great tour which allowed us to see a shipwreck, tons of sea turtles and other great wildlife.

We won't hesitate to come back to Water Island and Windswept.

We spent 7 days of bliss on Water Island at the Windswept 2 property. The property manager, Mark, was very helpful. hospitable and friendly. The accommodations at Windswept 2 are superb. Everything needed was there ... tourist information, quality linens, air condiitioning in the bedrooms, snorkel gear, spices for cooking, outdoor grill, a golf cart for island exploring, laundry in the condo .... etc., etc. No expense was spared when this property was built and decorated. The outdoor space was unbelievable and the views spectacular. We took a dip in the beautiful pool on the property a couple of times each day and spent several afternoons on Honeymoon beach just a few minutes away. All the "islanders" we met were very nice and we felt comfortable and safe at all times. Needless to say, we fell in love with Water Island on our first vist and have many fond memories staying at Windswept 2. We look forward to returning to this wonderful island and property. We feel we could not have picked a better place to honeymoon.

What a wonderful experience. We arrived to Water island for a romantic honeymoon and could not have asked for anything better. Mark met us at the dock and made us feel right at home. The condo is absolutely beautiful and immaculate. The views are spectacular from the front to the bay and the back to the caribbean. The first day we made our way to St. Thomas to stock up on provisions and once again a quick call to Mark and he was more than helpful with tips and suggestions for stocking up. The pool is absolutely perfect. We would spend the day exploring St. Thomas and return to cool off and relax in the pool. The golf cart was great for getting around the island or for just exploring the beautiful island views as we did one day. The masterbed is 5 star! Absolutely the most comfortable and what a view watching the sun come up in the morning! Thank you for allowing us to enjoy this experience and be sure to give Mark and Vicki our thanks for all their help and friendship.

Windswept was absolutely amazing. The property is well maintained, and stocked with all of the comforts of home, including very comfortable beds. It is exceptionally clean, with fresh linens. The views were absolutely stunning, with both back and front views of the ocean and the bay to see all of the cruise ships arriving and leaving. The verandahs are huge, and allow outside access on both levels to enjoy the incredible vistas. There was always a lovely breeze to keep us cool at night - little need for the air-conditioning. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool - it was kept at a refreshing temperature and very clean. The couple who take care of Windswept were very friendly and helpful. They met us at the dock and helped transport luggage, and intermittently 'checked in' with us to make sure everything was ok. They offered all kinds of tips about where to explore and the upcoming 'events' on the island. We were concerned that our two kids (aged 8 and 10) might be bored - however the island offered lots to do and see. We have been on 11 Caribbean-based cruises over the past, and Honeymoon Beach is one of our favourites. The water is warm and calm, and teaming with tropical fish. The snorkelling there was a lot of fun, and there was a great variety of sea turtles and birds to check out also. The grocery stores in St. Thomas were well-stocked. The bbq grill on the property really helps with easy dinners. Heidi's on the beach also offers freshly grilled burgers and hotdogs that are excellent - it's like a 'cheeseburger in paradise' experience!! The owners of Windswept were very accommodating and helpful - an absolute pleasure to work with. I highly recommend this property - we couldn't think of anything that disappointed us. We can't wait to return.

This place was perfect! We went on a girls trip to relax and get some sun and Windswept was everything we had hoped for and more. If you are looking for a place where you can walk out the door a few steps to a great pool and a short jaunt to honeymoon beach this is it. The furnishings are amazing and comfortable, The beds are first class as well as the bedding. The beach was great for relaxing and swimming. The kitchen is stocked with good equipment, and basic spices. If you are looking for a quiet place to relax by a great pool, have coffee while watching the sunrise and hang out on an uncrowded beach-- this is it! I can't wait to come back with my family!

My family had a wonderful stay at this property. We were met at the dock by the property managers who helped us settle into our home away from home. The house itself is beautifully appointed -- even prettier than in the photos -- and we found every convenience there we could have asked for. The pool was a delight, and I can't even count the number of hours spent on Honeymoon Beach. We traveled to St. Thomas's and St. John's beaches, and always wanted to come back to Water Island's own Honeymoon Beach. Quiet, calm, and picturesque, this was by far the best beach in all that we saw. And Heidi's grill skills are really fantastic. The ferry to St. Thomas is a 5 minute trip by golf cart, and the grocery store is on the arrival dock. Tickles restaurant, also on the arrival dock, has a wonderful breakfast before you set off into St. Thomas. All in all, our vacation was comfortable, relaxing, and thoroughly enjoyable, in large part due to the property and its amenities. I whole-heartedly recommend this for a wonderful vacation home.

This place was the most well maintained, well equiped place i have been in the carribean. I can't say enough about the efforts put into making this place nicer than 5 star hotels!!! I will not think twice about where i am staying next year when i return to the island.

... To call this place a paradise retreat can not really justify the perfection of this vacation home.
We enjoyed the beauty of the island from our first sighting & then we slipped comfortably into the home
that welcomed us with every amenity! The house was welcoming and comfortable, the pool spectacular, the views breath-taking. We look forward to our next vacation in this home & on this delightful island!
