Private pool with a spectacular ocean view!

Villa Luxury! Have you ever imagined of waking up in paradise, if so, this villa is for you! Beautifully landscaped and immaculately maintained grounds surround, while gorgeous views and amazing weather abound. Look out over your own private pool situated very close to the beautiful Caribbean Sea. You will never get tired of the view or the fantastic weather. Our villa is in the Villa Madeleine Resort located on St. Croix's desirable East End and is a free-standing home with its own private pool overlooking clear blue water and a white sandy beach. The villa has beautiful French doors opening out to a walled courtyard with a sun deck, grill and private pool. We feature full kitchen amenities, a beautiful indoor as well as outdoor poolside dining and lounge area. The home includes 2 master suites, one featuring a queen-sized bed and the other a king and both opening up to the pool and view of the ocean. Expansive enough for a luxurious location for one or two couples. WiFi, cable TV and in unit laundry are included as well as phone service. We are in a gated community w/ tennis courts and close to some restaurants & beaches. Our villa is well maintained, and we have an on island individual property manager who is very willing to provide personalized support should you want or need any assistance.

Disappointed, Dirty & Cockroach Infestation

We've stayed there before for 1 week and this time for 4 weeks Feb 2025. The condo was dirty, dusty, and water in the pool was stagnant. All kitchen drawers and cabinets had live cockroaches. cockroaches.

Average condo in a great community.

We stayed in this particular home three times in 2023 and this was our first time back since then. The condo community is very nice with each home having a private pool and similar layout. Neighbors were Very helpful during a power outage (which is not unusual On the island). There have been some nice improvements with new ceiling fan and A/C unit in the living room plus a new roof since 2023. However, the home and pool deck were not as clean as on previous occasions. Pool toys, deck furniture cushions and other items are taking over the detached second bedroom which I use as a yoga space and to do laundry. I was not as comfortable here as on previous visits due to things feeling not-so-clean, tired and worn. The local property manager was unavailable but relayed my concerns to the property owners who were very responsive. The property owners listened to my concerns and I expect they will follow up so that future guests have better experiences like I had had in 2023.

Take the Dare….it is a Dream!

Dare to Dream is spectacular….everything as advertised! Lynda and Jeffrey are great hosts and Vee was there for any questions or advice on the area. The spacious Villa had everything we needed and the view was fabulous. Nothing better than rolling out of bed and taking a dip in the pool 😁 the only regret my wife and I have is that our trip wasn’t longer but we will be back next year!!!

Villa Madeleine Bungalow

Charming but the two bedrooms are not equivalent. The 2nd bedroom requires a key to get to through the patio, its shower has a problem with water temp consistency (perhaps a regulator is needed for the water heater), has lower water pressure than the master, and has a window unit for a.c. that does not cool down the room very well. The master has 2 a.c. units--a window unit and a newer unit on the wall above. Both bedrooms have ceiling fans. The living room does not have its own a.c., only a ceiling fan. Instructions given mention a notebook with instructions but this was never found, and house manager says there isn't one. If power goes out and water is run during outage, this causes water to stop running. We did not turn the water on but lost water anyway because of a leaky toilet. The manager's husband was very nice to come and reboot the system to get the water back on but it could have been prevented. We also later found out that the power outage was planned due to work in the area, and it would have been nice to know about it so as to plan our day around it. Cell phones do not work in the bungalow. There is a landline phone but you cannot make non local calls from it.

Slice of Paradise

We spent 6 wonderful days at the Villa, everything we could need or want was there. The view is a million dollar view of the ocean and mountain. The best after full days of exploring St Croix was jumping in the pool & enjoying the serenity of this villa. I will definitely come back and stay here again.

Perfect East end accommodations!

Wonderful experience staying at this property on the beautiful East end of the island with my mom and two of my kids, ages 7 and 15, for one week over Spring Break. The Villa was clean, comfortable, beautiful had everything we needed. The pool area was awesome! The kids spent a lot of the time there. I hope we can come back at some point. We would definitely stay here again. I love the gated community, never once felt unsafe at the Villa or anywhere on the island. We drove over to the west end two of the days and it is only a 40-45 min drive to the other end. Perfect location for getting up early for sunrise and Point Udall. Dare to Dream is the definition of paradise! Thank you for sharing your wonderful rental with us! Renae

Our Saint Croix Holiday

My wife Denise and I really enjoy our many trips to a few different islands in the Caribbean. Saint Croix weather and scenery and food and beaches and friendly people make it rank right up there in the top ten. This property is safe, quiet, clean but you do need a car to make the most of it. It took us about 15 to 20 minutes to drive to Christiansted. Working with the property manager was very easy and reliable. We both would highly recommend it to anyone.

Best place to stay on St. Croix

Villa Madeleine is a special place. What a wonderful time and perfect for two adult couples. The house and Pam (property manager) were terrific. Far enough away to relax, but a short drive to Christiansted and/or quick walk down the hill for breakfast lunch @ TLC or dinner @ Duggan's. St. Croix is now my favorite island retreat.

relaxing week in St. Croix

Lovely spot to relax, read a book, take a dip. Really lovely. Comfy living room. Lovely grounds, well maintained. Nice layout for two couples, or mix of adults. The 2nd bedroom is accessed through patio door (does not connect to the main living area), which provides additional privacy. (the door handle broke, and it took two days to fix - so we had to be very careful - I'm sure we could have gotten it fixed more quickly if we followed up more directly with the crew on site.). The walk to the beach is long and not straightforward unless you go when the gate is unlocked ( a few days / week, uncertain re. schedule). The location is about 20 mins from town, 30 mins to airport, 45 mins to the other major town. Grocery stores 15-20 mins. 1 cook kitchen that is incredibly well stocked. Steep hill exiting complex - recommend non compact car. Love that all the beaches are public. Crystal clear water. Very informal island. Make sure to call if you will be late picking up rental car - ours was no longer available, and a car was a must! Pam and her husband were very generous to drive us back to the airport to pick up a car.

Relaxing oasis for our family vacation

We greatly enjoyed our stay at Dare to Dream. The accommodations were set up perfectly for our family (two couples). We spent a lot of time relaxing on the private pool deck and enjoying the view and Caribbean breezes. A highlight included booking Llewelyn’s Charters for a snorkeling trip to Buck Island, which departs conveniently from the St. Croix Yacht Club, a 5 minute drive from Villa Madeleine. We definitely recommend staying here!

Beautiful Villa

We so enjoyed our stay. After many island condo rentals I can say that this was the best at details. Small things like soap, dish soap and t. p. plentiful enough that we didn’t have to immediately shop for basics. Cute decor that makes you feel like you are someplace special and comfortable. We basically pulled a bathing suit out of our bags and went straight into the pool. This was a great home base to explore the island from. I would have loved screens for doors so less bugs came in with the breeze but that was nothing that impacted the experience overall. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

Don’t hesitate. Book this Villa

Great Villa for two couples or a couple small families. The pool is fantastic. Kitchen well stocked and plenty of towels and linen. Our first time on the Island, and after driving all over in my Opinion Villa Madeline is in the perfect spot. Quiet, but only a short 15min drive to Christensted. My plan is to retire in one of these Villas!!!

About the host

Hosted by Lynda K Graham or Jeffrey A. Graham

Host profile image
Welcome to our retreat. As newly retired teachers we are excited to share our dream with all who want to enjoy time in paradise. I taught special education, autism and severe behavior disordered students for 30 years in Michigan and Georgia and loved every minute with my very important young people. My husband, also a teacher taught high school biology and totally enjoys the outdoor life that St. Croix provides. We will provide everyone who chooses our Villa with an amazing and relaxing vacation experience.

Why they chose this property

We chose Villa Madeleine mostly because of the privacy of having our own pool and no shared walls with neighbors. The view is also breathtaking and having 2 masters is a dream for 2 couples. Our grandchildren will be joining us on occasion and the pool was a BIG draw for them.

What makes this property unique

This property was formerly known as Awaken Your Dreams! The villa came to us with a 4.8 VRBO rating so we knew it was the perfect place for us and our guests. The villa is beautifully furnished with newer furnishings and décor in the living room. The kitchen is stocked with every pot or pan you could want or need. Laundry facilities are provided in the unit. Golf clubs, tennis racquets, pool toys and snorkeling equipment is included. It's ready when you .... Dare to Dream!
