If you like to enjoy a cocktail or frozen drink while on island time, there are two bars, one in the kitchen and another in the living room. All three showers are recently updated tile and the remodeled kitchen is modern and sleek. Featuring stainless steel gas range/oven, microwave, dishwasher and French door refrigerator.

Just a half hour to Frederiksted or Christiansted means you can take in some local history, enjoy Rainbow Beach, the Frederiksted Pier or stroll the Christiansted boardwalk checking out shops and restaurants.

We loved our stay! The house is in a fantastic location with fantastic views of the ocean/sunsets. The owners and Chuck the property manager were fantastic as well. Highly recommend.
Our stay here was wonderful. The pool was clean, the location was great, and the property manager was extremely helpful and personable. My kids had a great time! Everything we needed to have our tropical holiday was there! We will definitely consider this property on our future visits.
We had a wonderful stay in this home. Up in the mountains with a really good view, and more importantly a sea breeze.
We loved the amenities, including the pool which we were able to use daily, which helped as it was really warm.
The property was beautiful and allowed for a quiet, private and relaxing stay. We enjoyed our time. Our only suggestion would be doors for the bathrooms.
We had great times at Sunshine and Happiness 2 bdroom home! Close to the Cane bay beach and to restaurants. Home is secluded and has great ocean views. Would recommend it!
A very nice place. Clean, quiet, great view of the ocean. The host was very quick to answer any questions and to address any concerns that we had. Property manager was pleasant and was quick to address any issues. As others have stated, the sliding glass doors are a little quirky, but that is only a minor issue. A great location.
The house was exactly as described -- big airy rooms with spectacular views. It was furnished to make you feel welcome and comfortable, which we were. We were 20-30 minutes from everything we wanted to see and do. Fantastic rental!
We loved staying here. Friendly and easy going owner and property manager. The house is beautiful and the view is breathtaking. Pool is very nice with gorgeous landscaping. Amenities are great. We had a perfect stay. Thank you so much for your hospitality!
House was really set up to entertain, and if no friends very comfortable for my husband and I. It had everything we needed and more. Property manager, Chuck, very responsive, friendly, but professional as well. If you’d like to cook, this house is friendly to your menus
This property is amazing for your next stay in St. Croix. There is plenty of space, multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, a fully stocked kitchen, great views from every room, and of course the wonderful pool. Jeff was a very responsive host and the property manager, Chuck, was extremely helpful when we had a water issue the first night. Both went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction and we are very thankful. The house itself could use some updates but overall we were very satisfied with our stay. You are 20-30 minutes from either main "town" and 5-10 minutes from Cane Bay beaches and restaurants. We would not hesitate to stay here again.
The house was perfect for 2 couples with separate master suites and two spare bathrooms. The house is up on the hill so gets wonderful breezes (or winds depending on the time of year) and has great ocean views, both directly north and down to Cane Bay. We spent a lot of time in the pool hanging out with the hermit crabs and the one iguana that came to visit. Chuck, the property manager (and his dog Wilson) is fun and knowledgeable. The ocean and a few small beaches are within walking distance although having a Jeep is a must. Cane Bay is about a 5 minute drive away and Frederiksted and Christiansted are both about half an hour's drive away. I'm hoping we can come back to visit soon.
Cannot say enough positive things about the owner and manager of this house as well as the place itself. By far one of our best vacations. The Manager was professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and address any needs. The owner also handled the entire time we were there with a positive, adaptable, and professional manner. We have already recommended to friends and family and if we go back to St Croix, this will be the first place we look.
As far as the island goes - best snorkeling there is and friendly people everywhere. Definitely would recommend a jeep or tough SUV as the roads get rough outside of Christenstead.
This house is very spacious set on a hillside with a great view of the water. There is a neighbor on one side but is shielded by trees. The panoramic view from the balcony is of lush green hills and the sea and the sunset. No houses to disrupt the beauty. Our three weeks here were peaceful and restful. The owner responded promptly to the few maintenance issues we had.
The house is a five-minute drive from Cane Bay Beach--great for scuba and snorkeling. There are also 4 restaurants on the same beach so very convenient.
One word of caution; the roads on the island are in disrepair. We rented a Jeep SUV but a four-wheel drive would be more appropriate and worth the extra money.
An all-around great vacation.
We had a wonderful time at Sunshine and Happiness! Everything was clean, the kitchen was really nice! So if you like to cook while you are in The islands, the kitchen here is top-notch. Chuck, the property manager was extremely knowledgeable, super friendly, and was a great host. I would highly recommend this location if you like privacy but still be close to both Christiansted and Fredricksted. Cane Bay is five minutes from the property so if you’re into scuba diving, you couldn’t stay better. Both the property manager and owners were quick to respond to questions and the property manager made several recommendations for activities and restaurants that were appreciated. One of my favorite things about this location is that it sits in the rainforest on St. Croix. The flowers were all in bloom when we were there and the landscaping around the pool in the house are quite nice. I would recommend that you have your own car if you’re staying at this location. There were two of us, so there was plenty of room, but the house could easily accommodate six still not feel crowded. There are a lot of nice places to stay on St. Croix, we have been coming to the island for several years and this is now one of our favorite places to stay.
This is a great property! The views are wonderful and the sound of the waves is so soothing. My husband and I enjoyed our 21st anniversary here and didn’t want to leave. I recommend opening all the windows and sliding doors, especially the ones facing the sea, to maximize airflow. It does get warm sometimes but it never got too hot for us. The mini split ACs in the bedrooms keep everything nice and chilled in there. I recommend opening the sleeper sofa and relaxing with the balcony view!
The island is amazing!
I recommend Rowdy Joe’s down the road and La Reine Chicken Shack in Frederiksted for good food. If you’re looking for something a bit fancier, Duggan’s Reef in Christiansted was very nice and the Lobster was perfect! El Leon had mouthwatering papas bravas and birria tacos, as well. Don’t forget to visit Point Udall and try to see the Moko Jumbies and fire dancers at The Deep End- you will not be disappointed! Overall, our stay was perfect for us and just what we needed to getaway from it all. I definitely recommend Sunshine & Happiness to anyone looking for a nice place to stay- we’ve already begun discussing when we can come back!
This property is amazing! Your first decision of the day is what view do you want to enjoy your coffee from. Host is attentive and the property manager Chuck took great care of us.
The hosts and managers were very accommodating!! Jeff, Sarah, and Chuck do a great job of making sure that we had a great experience. The house was perfect for us two couples with plenty of room to roam. Views are spectacular and the stars shine brilliantly as seen from the terrace. Would stay again!!
What a great home base for our adventures. Beautiful pool area welcomes you with great sunset views and a balcony all the way around so you can watch the sunrise as well. Jeff and Sarah communicated well to ensure everything was taken care of and their man on the ground Chuck went above and beyond to make sure even or smallest inconveniences were take care. Can't wait to get back soon.
We went to St Croix to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary and were looking for a place to just get a way. This house and location was perfect for us! The host was very responsive, the house had everything we needed and the location was perfect to be able to get almost anywhere on the island in about 30 minutes or less. Highly recommend this property!
