If you are looking for a tranquil place on a beautiful beach, the Cottages by the Sea is the perfect place. Sandy and John are so warm and welcoming. We felt at home immediately. This place is special, and situated on a gorgeous, calm, and uncrowded beach. We will be back again.

Loved the cottage setting, no high rise, no crowds, and our own beach with lounge chairs. A shared BBQ grill was very nice, allowed us to stay on the property to eat. A full kitchen was also a plus. Staff was very helpful and was quick to address any concerns we had. I would definately stay there again.

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!
