About this property

Moonwalk - mid century modern home on North Shore St. Croix

Moonwalk is right on the coast on the east end of Cane Bay. The open air house was built by a shipbuilder and feels like a magnificent mid-century modern boat. The breeze from the sea blows through the house throughout the day and the sound of the waves lulls you to sleep at night. The view from the upstairs balcony is postcard-worthy. Amenities include pool, wireless internet/TV, full kitchen, washer/dryer, and of course, the ocean just beyond the back gate.

Our Caribbean Life episode "Southern Charm in St. Croix" from season 6 still occasionally airs if you want to see more of the house and probably more than you want to of us.

Please note in the photos that the wall separating the air-conditioned bedrooms does not extend all the way to the vaulted ceiling, and because of the open nature of the stair/loft railings the house may not be the best fit for unsupervised young children.

2nd time around
This property is gorgeous, the pictures only scratch the surface. The waves, the salt spray, the pool, all create a very relaxing vibe while the amenities inside make for a great stay. Thank you!

Perfect home and location
My family and I stayed in Moonwalk for a week and absolutely loved it. The location cannot be beat, the views are stunning, and the home is truly one of a kind. The decor is very unique with lots of beautiful furnishings. We spent quite a bit of time exploring the tide pools in the back, walking along the water, or just relaxing on one of the decks or the pool. There is a great beach nearby with restaurants and calm swimming close enough to walk to. Bob was in regular communication and provided easy instructions to find and access the property and was easy to work with. Overall, a fantastic experience!

Great Location for Awesome Vacation
This was a great house in the perfect middle location to explore the entire island. It is the beach, so anyone who's had experience with that should know what minor inconveniences to expect. Sure, there's wear, tear, sea spray, etc.; but it is a HOME, not a luxury hotel. We loved it because of that and would stay again. The art and treasures everywhere, from the large driftwood octopus to the small bottle cap, were intriguing discoveries that probably had great stories behind them. The open windows (no need for air conditioner) with the ocean right out the back door were wonderful for putting us to sleep. The only drawback was the neighbor's lights on all night, so bring a sleep mask if you're sensitive to that. We loved sitting in the front tropical garden area with the lizards and birds to enjoy our morning tea out of the sun, and the sunrise and sunset ocean views from the back were awesome. The owners communicated extremely well, provided everything we needed, and even let us stay longer on check-out day as no one was coming in after us. We definitely recommend staying here. We also recommend doing the bioluminescent kayak tour with the awesome guides of Bush Tribe Eco Adventures, Cane Bay and Fredericksted Pier for snorkeling (saddened by dead corals at Buck Island), The Landing and Brew STX for restaurants, Many Hands Gallery off boardwalk for original art, Annaly Bay hike, Isaacs Bay... wow, just too much. And MoonWalk is the best home base for it all.

Gorgeous unique property worth the stay
The pictures online do not do this property justice. Listening to the soothing sounds of the surf and lounging by the pool in the afternoon made this a very relaxing vacation. Great communication and support from the owner. Clean and comfortable. Because of the steady ocean breeze we never turned on the air conditioning. That wonderful ocean breeze does come with a bit of salt spray which makes for some corrosion here and there but hey #islandlife, it's all good...

About the host

Hosted by Bob

Host profile image
Bob and Dru reside in Charlotte, NC, with our two kids, and have traveled extensively throughout the Caribbean over the last 20 years, always looking for the island we would retire to along the way. When we finally hit St. Croix, we knew this was it - the perfect balance of unspoiled beauty and local culture. Being less heavily traveled than many of the islands, the reefs are pristine and the people that live here warm and friendly.

Why they chose this property

I (Dru) am an artist and a gardener. When I first set foot in Moonwalk, I was ready to go back to the realtor's office and write a contract without even touring the house. The design of the house is so well done, with a clean mid century modern feel that perfectly marries the outdoors in St. Croix with a very comfortable and aesthetic living space.

What makes this property unique

Moonwalk has it all for us. It is on the ocean and yet has gardens around the house. We fall asleep at night with the breeze blowing through the windows, the sound of the waves below us, and tree frogs and crickets singing along. The view out the master bedroom and off the balcony is a postcard; we've spend many hours there watching the sun rise with coffee or watching the stars come out with a cocktail of local Cruzan rum. The north shore has little light pollution so a usual night sky is one with a diamond dust of millions of stars.
Moonwalk was built by a ship builder and the inside of the house certainly reflects this -there are recycled salt-soaked timbers through the house and it has a real mid century modern eco feel. In the front courtyard are stone salvaged from a sugar plantation as well as a large copper kettle that was used a couple hundred years ago processing sugar, and is now a water garden, home to koi and guppies.
Off the back deck and pool, the gate leads you down to the ironstone beach where there are tide polls and small sandy beaches, perfect for hunting sea glass , sea urchin shells, puka shells and driftwood. The beach is usually deserted and you can walk well down the coast.
