The cottages are right on one of the best beaches on the island. They have a nice laid back you’re not at a fancy resort feel. Staff are very friendly and helpful.

10/10 Excellent

Our stay at Cottages By The Sea was absolutely amazing! This quaint little complex is a crown jewel of St. Croix. The staff was very friendly and it is a very calm and relaxing environment with pristine beach access. We stayed in the Crow's nest in which our second level porch overlooking the sea was breathtaking. We will absolutely be coming back!

Ruth, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The property is perfect for a relaxing vacation right next to the water. But the best part was the staff Sande, the manager, is the most welcoming, kind, affectionate, warm and inviting person we have ever met. Because of her I will always stay at this property when I come back to STX. I will be telling everyone I know to stay here.
Taisha, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This property is amazing. You can snorkel right off the property, room was clean, house keeping was super friendly and gave us fresh towels when needed. I can’t say enough about this property! Also they have the sweetest cat that lives there. Will be booking again.
Carrie, 6-night trip

Serene! Lovely little rustic cottages on the beach. Not all cottages are ocean view, but the entire property is on the beach. And the beach is beautiful!
Julia, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Awesome
James, 6-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great location. It's the best beach on the island. Easily saw turtles and stingrays and lots of fish. Love jumping into the water right after waking up~
Haihai, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I had an amazing stay. Literally steps from the calmest beach I’ve ever been to. The room was exceptionally clean, just a little outdated— but I did book their last room available so it makes sense. I was told that the property is so popular you need to book the room at least 11 months in advance. Overall I would most definitely recommend this stay if you’re going for a chill, romantic, or family oriented stay. 10/10.
Heaven, 4-night trip
