Very nice unit
Excellent property - excellent communication with Host - excellent dealing with property management - unit was in a great location - beach chairs were great. The only thing we would rate less than excellent would be the ac unit - it was extremely hot/humid out and unit would only cool to 77 degrees inside. We are low maintenance so we never contacted anyone and overall we were very happy.

Perfect Location
This is our second time staying in a studio owned by Anna May in Grande Bay Resort. She is more than accommodating and always very responsive. The studio is the perfect size for a couple. Even though there is not a full kitchen, there is a grill on the balcony and a skillet and burner in the kitchen. Grande Bay is a beautiful resort and the perfect location to walk to everything in Cruz Bay.

This studio has everything you need for a fantastic stay. Love little touches like rain ponchos (it rained almost every day). All beach supplies provided no need to bring extra also loved washer and dryer in unit. Best part was sitting on balcony waterfront view absolutely perfect !! My only recommendation would be to get a new bed very lumpy.

Overall this property was excellent, great location, clean, included beach chairs and beach cooler which was great. The only thing that needs to be updated is the bed, the bed almost felt like sleeping in a hammock it sunk so far, the bed needs to be replaced ASAP for the unit I stayed in.

Perfect accommodations in paradise
Grande Bay Surfside studio was perfect for my husband and me. The view was spectacular! We had everything that we needed to make for a great week. The kitchen had a nice size refrigerator, sink, blender, coffee maker and all the necessities we needed. No stove or oven but I wasn’t interested in cooking and it is also stated in the listing. We were met at the ferry by Darrin. He pointed out great restaurants, took us on a quick tour of the property and let us inside the condo. I text him a couple of times for recommendations and he was quick to answer. The management company and the owners were were very friendly and accommodating. Communication was excellent! We will definitely return! Planning our next trip now.

Perfect for the two of us
The condo was perfect for my husband and me. I loved having the washer and dryer. The kitchen as great for 2 people for a week. We used the electric plate and toaster for breakfast every morning. If we were staying longer, we would prefer a full kitchen, but this was fine. It was especially helpful to have beach chairs and towels instead of packing them or going without. The location was perfect for walking everywhere in Cruz Bay - so convenient! We rented a dinghy and only had to walk two minutes to launch it. We loved sitting on the balcony at night after dinner. The view was awesome. We would definitely stay there again!

The condo is extremely nice. We had a studio so not huge. Location location location we were closed to cruise bay but we have never been. Views were great. We were amazed how we didn’t have to buy the little things we normally have to buy had a condo ie salt/pepper, cooking spray, paper towels etc. If you needed it and miss placed it mad at you did not need it. Overall experience was a 10+. The people who owner easy to deal with and the management company who checked us and we’re outstanding. We would definitely stay again.

This was a very large suite with a beautiful view of Cruz Bay. Property was immaculate and stocked with everything you need. It is only a couple minutes easy walk to Cruz Bay. The manager was able to obtain a parking permit for us so we saved a lot on parking fees. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect Vacation
This property is the perfect spot to enjoy paradise! Anna May is very helpful and responds quickly to questions. The studio itself is fabulous! It comes with everything you need during your stay - chairs, coolers (even laundry detergent!). It is perfectly located, a short walk to all the restaurants, bars and shopping. The balcony overlooking Cruz Bay is the perfect way to start your day with your morning coffee. If you do rent a jeep, the garage will certainly test your parking skills! Otherwise, we couldn't have asked for better accommodations. The staff at Grande Bay was also very friendly and helpful. Finally, Darren from Crandall Property Management was the best, helping us out in a tight spot; he was always available and answered questions immediately. This was our second time staying at Grande Bay with Anna May and we will be back!

Beautiful location/perfect vacation
Our stay at Surfside Studio was amazing! Over many years, we have stayed outside of town either at the Westin or in a private villa! It was SOOO nice to be near the taxis to get to the beaches and to be near all of the restaurants and bars for meals and drinks and then walk home (our home for 2 weeks) and fall into bed! Our host was most helpful with any questions we had and Darren was so kind to help us with our luggage upon arrival and departure! The studio was beautifully decorated and the view- Oh my gosh- the view was beautiful! We loved waking up and having our coffee in paradise each morning!
