Property Description
Cane Bay Sanctuary: Self-Sufficient Oceanfront Oasis
Perched on one of St. Croix’s most breathtaking coastal sites, Cane Bay Sanctuary spans 0.4 acres of pristine oceanfront, capturing sweeping 180-degree views of the Caribbean Sea from Hams Bluff to the distant sister islands on clear days. Passing through the gated entrance, tranquility takes over, welcoming you into a haven of beauty, balance, and sustainable luxury living.
This exceptional estate includes two 2-bedroom, 2-bath homes thoughtfully oriented around a sparkling central pool and multiple seaside decks that overlook the vibrant reef right below. Enjoy daily encounters with sea life, from dolphins gliding past the shoreline to whales breaching offshore during the winter months, all from the comfort of your private sanctuary.
Solar-Powered Resilience with Grid Security
Cane Bay Sanctuary is engineered for energy independence. A robust 48-panel solar array combined with four Tesla Powerwalls provides reliable, clean power day and night, while a backup generator offers additional assurance. The property remains fully grid-connected, ensuring maximum resilience and uninterrupted comfort in any conditions.
Abundant Fresh Water with Whole-Home Purification
Each home is supported by its own large rainwater cistern, supplying plentiful fresh water for everyday use. Whole-house UV purification systems deliver safe, clean, and chemical-free water throughout, reinforcing the property’s eco-conscious design.
Elevated Natural Living
Mature tropical landscaping, including coconut palms, moringa, oregano, and fragrant frangipanis, creates an atmosphere of restorative health and privacy. Expansive ocean views from nearly every room evoke the feeling of being aboard a luxurious vessel, yet anchored in a grounded island paradise.
A newly constructed cement storage room and an additional basement under the west house offer excellent utility and storage space. Numerous thoughtful upgrades enhance efficiency, comfort, and style throughout the estate.
Premier Cane Bay Location
A brief six-minute stroll leads to Cane Bay Beach, a beloved destination for world-class scuba diving, vibrant snorkeling, and refreshing swimming. Several restaurants, beach bars, and a dive shop are all within easy walking distance, delivering an effortless island lifestyle of recreation and relaxation.
Privacy, Security, and Pet-Friendly Comfort
The entire property is enclosed by a solid cement wall that enhances seclusion, security, and peace of mind. It also creates an ideal outdoor environment for dogs, providing safe space to roam and enjoy the tropical surroundings.
Whether envisioned as a high-performing vacation rental property, a multi-generational compound, or a residence with supplemental rental income, Cane Bay Sanctuary offers rare versatility, privacy, and a sustainable path to coastal luxury.
Cane Bay Sanctuary is more than an oceanfront home. It is a self-sustaining Caribbean retreat where modern comfort and natural harmony coexist beautifully.
