About this cottage rental
This 1B/1B oceanfront cottage with a full kitchen sits in a gated community on St. Croix's north shore. Sit and watch the surfers, windsurfers, kite surfers, turtles, whales, kayakers, and pelicans cruise through the water from the cottage deck or walk the 25 yards down to the beach for an even closer look. You may even run into a 500 pound turtle making a nest. Walk/run/bike the 9 miles of private roads within the safe gated community. Great central location for exploring all that St. Croix has to offer. 4 miles to downtown Christiansted.
The property was shown on an episode of HGTV's House Hunter's International (Caribbean Quandary). Check it out at the end of the show.
St. Croix is the largest of the US Virgin Islands, but it remains a well-kept secret in comparison to St. Thomas and St. John. St. Croix is much quieter and more laid-back. The island offers water sports in abundance, such as scuba diving, snorkeling, fishing, sailing, kayaking, surfing, and kite-surfing, with numerous beaches to explore. St. Croix has two small towns (Christiansted and Frederiksted) that have duty-free shopping and historic architecture. St. Croix offers something for everyone. Come relax on this wonderful island. No passports needed for US citizens.
St. Croix isn't just the largest of the U.S. Virgin Islands, but it also boasts the Caribbean's largest living reef. And it is the only spot in the region where you can dive a wall that drops more than 13,000 feet.
Two guests maximum and no children. No smoking.

This lovely cottage was a perfect setting for a spur of the moment visit to St. Croix. The cottage was clean, well equipped, and set in a quiet shoreside location. The hosts were helpful and attentive. We'd definitely rent this cottage on a future visit.

Had a wonderful time visiting Chad and Emily’s cottage. It was stocked with everything we needed, clean, and safe location. Emily even had freshly baked cookies waiting for us upon arrival! The hosts were super nice and accommodating, and we appreciate that. Thanks for having us and looking forward to visiting St. Croix again in the future!

My stay in the cottage with my BFF was perfect for our impromptu trip to St. Croix. We didn't do much research or planning for this trip; however, the cottage had absolutely everything we needed plus some. It is equipped for any kind of vacation you are looking for and in the best location to explore the island.
The hosts were lovely, as well, welcoming, great communicators, flexible, and resourceful.
My favorite parts of the cottage were my morning walks around the picturesque neighborhood ending on the beach, listening to the ocean and the night sky. My friend enjoyed her morning coffees and yoga on the porch.
We have no complaints. Thank you!!

I really loved this place! I was greeted personally by the hosts. They were super cool and also had some homemade cookies for me, which were so delish and great timing after a full day of travel. I was super impressed also by the fact that they genuinely thought of everything. I mean, from condiments to quality shampoo and hygienes (mine was confiscated at the airport), to bug spray, sun screen, aloe Vera, yoga mats, beach chairs and everything you would need at the beach, etc. It wasn’t like your standard Vrbo that’s usually completely empty with just the bare necessities. There was a sheet inside with all of the places to eat and see along with personal recommendations. Communication was great and I could text for anything I needed. All in all, phenomenal experience. I will be back!!!! 🌍👌

You couldn’t get closer to the ocean if you tried! You look out the front porch and it’s right there with two great chairs to just sit in and listen and watch the waves! Chad and Emily were so kind and hospitable and greeted us and took time to chat and answer island questions that we had. The place was in a nice safe and gated neighborhood. It was well equipped and comfortable and clean! Would definitely recommend it for a base point to drive around and tour the island - it’s a great location in the center where you can get anywhere conveniently! Can’t recommend it enough!

Wonderful week there, my wife and I enjoyed our stay and would go back. Definitely recommend if you want a nice place in a safe neighborhood too. Every thing is is driving distance too. We had a very nice time there.

Chad and Emily ensure the entire stay is as seamless as possible! Their communications are great, from driving directions to the house, guest passes waiting at the gate right to our last morning check-out! We had a fantastic stay in their Beautiful ocean-front cottage! Would absolutely recommend a stay at the honeymoon cottage! Thank You Chad and Emily!

We had a great stay in St. Croix. The guest house was perfect for relaxing. Everything needed was available. Snorkeling gear, board games, beach gear.the kitchen was also well equipped. Everything was clean. The house is in a peaceful private neighborhood and close to everything. The owners were out of town, but were very easy to communicate with.

The Honeymoon Cottage was THE perfect place to explore St. Croix for our 30th Wedding Anniversary! Emily and Chad were very quick to respond to any questions we had. Emily made us these exquisitely decorated cookies for our anniversary that were delicious. The cottage itself is well equipped with everything you might need. I really appreciated the beach towels, chairs, cooler, and snorkel gear that was available for use. We would pack the cooler for the day and head out to discover the island. There are so many things to explore on St. Croix! You also don't have to go anywhere and just enjoy the beautiful beach at the cottage as well. 10/10 visit St. Croix and stay at the Honeymoon Cottage!

My husband and I celebrated our 25th at this beautiful cottage. It has everything you could possibly need, and Chad and Emily are so accommodating. (Emily the cookies were such a special touch and outstanding!) The cottage is centrally located on the island, so we took the opportunity to access both east and west side activities. My husband took three dive trips and he said it is some of the best diving he has done in the world. The dining was phenomenal too- not a bad meal all week. Wonderful memories in a sunny paradise!

This cottage packs a lot in a small space: King-size bed, A/C, Washer/Dryer, Dishwasher, Internet and more. We had everything we wanted for our week-long stay.
Judith’s Fancy is a very quiet, safe, gated community. Great location for exploring the whole island!

We had the best time at Ocean Vista Cottage. There is so much to do on this island and we had fun doing as much as we could. The hosts were fantastic all the way around. We highly recommend this beautiful Oceanside escape.

The perfect little piece of paradise! Chad and Emily were so welcoming and kind. Emily's homemade cookies were phenomenal and much needed
after a long day of traveling. The cottage is perfectly located for anything you want to do on the island. It was so clean and had all the accommodations we could’ve needed. Although the cottage is next to the main house, it felt very secluded and private. We can’t wait to come back! We couldn't have had a better stay!

Private, relaxing stay
This is a lovely cottage and a friendly neighborhood. It is one of the most well-appointed properties we've ever stayed in, having everything we needed and more! While the proximity to the main house is very close, we still had all the privacy we wanted. The path to the beach was difficult to navigate, and there was a HUGE amount of seaweed which made our actual beach not viable for much other than looking at the water a bit, but you are so close to other beaches it is really not an issue. We loved sitting on the porch in the morning watching/listening to the waves. We had been waiting 18 months to make it to the property due to covid and repeated airline cancellations and it did not dissapoint! It was a wonderful way to celebrate our 20th anniversary!

Perfect location for a couple wanting a quiet retreat. You need a rental car to access the island's activities. . Very private setting, hosts quickly responded to questions or needs. Great furnishings with comfy easy chair, full size sofa , and proper mattress on the bed. Good AC, full size stove and fridge. The immediate beach is easily accessed via a short path from the front door, it is rocky there so you need to explore further afield for swimming, however the location in the center of the island gives you many options east and west.

Beach Front and Care Free
We had a great time at Judiths fancy. Chad and Emily were gracious hosts. We spent most of our time exploring Saint Croix diving and hiking. The time we spent at the property was enjoyable with the sound of the ocean and beautiful sunrises. The amenities were great for our needs. It was nice having a washer and dryer. We cooked breakfast just about daily before we went out exploring. Plenty of restaurants and bars to eat at in Christiansted and Frederiksted. We would stay here again if we come back to Saint Croix.

Great amenities to make it feel more like home. Location is north central part of island which makes travel to points of interest doable (even with island’s sketchy roads). Hosts are very personable and helpful. Being located in gated community gives some sense of security. Overall great place to stay.

Honeymoon Retreat
We had an amazing time on our honeymoon. Judith’s Fancy is a lovely and safe place with gorgeous views. It was amazing to start each day with a cup of coffee and the waves on our back doorstep. The Vrbo is very clean and has everything you need to have fun in St. Croix. Chad and Emily were very helpful and their hospitality was spot on. Emily’s cookies were superb. I highly recommend!

Beautiful and peaceful!
Chad and his wife were great hosts! This is a really nice, safe area and it's gorgeous and peaceful. We had everything we needed and the hosts were incredibly responsive. Only downside is it's far from things, so recommend renting a car! We'd stay here again.
