Welcome To Coakley Bay !!

Welcome to the Website and Resource Directory for the 100 condominiums at Coakley Bay. . .on the famous East End of St. Croix, outside of Christiansted.  Naturally we’re biased, but we think this is just about the best place to live or visit on St. Croix -- and maybe in the whole Virgin Islands! 

Unlike most other communities, we have a full-time office and a dozen staff members who look after not only the buildings, but also the spectacular plantings throughout the property, the huge swimming pool overlooking the Caribbean toward Buck Island, and the self-contained water supply and treatment systems.  In addition to all maintenance and day-to-day owner services, the Office handles such things as key control, rental of storage areas under the buildings, laundry facilities and our monthly newsletter.  (Mailboxes are just outside of the Administrative Office as well -- right next to the Salon.)

Another thing that makes Coakley Bay a great place (besides the absolute best views on St. Croix) are the two beaches.  One is right below the condos, and another (truly great one) about a 7 minute walk away.  It is a favorite location for kite surfers and visiting sailboats. Then there is the Cultured Pelican -- a superb restaurant that overlooks the pool and the Caribbean.  The Sunday brunches are without a doubt the best on the island and the evening dining offers both a first class restaurant and a more informal bar area with a lighter fare.

Coakley Bay Condominiums have been around for quite a while -- sturdy concrete buildings which withstood the full force of Hurricane Hugo.  (The roofs didn’t fare as well back in 1989, but have been replaced with a low-profile, high wind-resistance design.  After that, retractable metal shutters were added over all exposed windows and balcony doors.)  In 2009 we added 100%, full-power emergency power backup and a 24/7/365 response system for, non-911 emergencies. (By the way, St. Croix now has a new, modern 'all services' 911 system that is accesible from cell phones as well as landlines!)

New 100%, Full-time Backup Power

Along with the huge balconies in the front of each condo which overlook the Caribbean (called ‘galleries’ here) residents also enjoy full maintenance of all outside areas, doors, front shutters and structures -- as well as structural insurance coverage and supplied water.  And, naturally, we have Rules to assure privacy, quiet enjoyment and a safe, fun experience.

Some people stay year-round...others come just for a few months in the Winter...and some pop down when they have the time.  With the advent of things like digital cable, high speed internet and larger shopping centers mid-Island, St. Croix’s small-town, hidden charm has added a new dimension of convenience--creating a unique environment.  And at Coakley Bay, we’re just 15 minutes out of town -- far enough away to enjoy the serene beauty, but still just a stone’s throw from two golf courses, two marinas, numerous beaches, and a lot of really good restaurants.  We feel we have the best of both worlds. 

Whether you’re visiting, renting, looking for a special vacation home or moving to paradise, we’d love to have you join us at Coakley Bay!
