We are St. Croix residents who chose to stay at Cottages for a weekend getaway with friends. It is a charming small property right on a beautiful sandy beach with crystal clear water. The owners went out of their way to make sure our stay was enjoyable. This is a unique property which gives one the opportunity to experience true... More

We have stayed at Cottages several times over the past couple of years. We just came back from end of April stay and it was as great as always. Being right on the beach is awesome. The cottages are always clean and comfortable. We've stayed in three different units and liked them all. The staff is very friendly and helpful.... More

Spent 3 nights after spending week on St Thomas and wished we had done it the other way around. Stayed in the Caribe unit. Facing the beach and just 3 or 4 steps from beach. Caribe unit was really nice with king bed and a seperate living room/kitchen. No wall between them but kind of a half divider. Staff and... More

We just returned from a 9 day family vacation in St. Croix and stayed at Cottages for the second time. We were there in March 2011 for a wedding. Paul Benedict and staff were extremely accommodating as usual. We stayed for 4 nights in Commodore and 5 in Chart House. We like the roominess of Commodore, since my husband and... More

The staff was very welcoming, warm and friendly. The room lovely with full kitchen, million dollar views and very comfortable bedding. The gorgeous waters right outside your door, great snorkeling and swimming right outside your door. Lovely landscaping throughout the property. Would come back over and over again. Heavenly!

I have been all over St. Croix and there's no better place to stay. The ocean front is wonderflu-snorkeling is awesome-we saw a sting ray and two sea turtles, so far!!!!!!!!! the staff is attentive but not overbearing. The room we like is 'Cocktail' and it has a full kitchen so we grocery shop and eat in a lot. We... More

There's not much to add - the previous reviewers have done a nice job of capturing the essence of Cottages. We love this place! We stayed a few nights in 2010 before checking into a villa in the east. This time we came back and spent the entire time at Cottages. "The West is the best!" It's great to get... More

We stayed at Cottages by the Sea for ten nights in December as we did one year ago. Another excellent stay. We realize we won't go anywhere else in St. Croix since staying at the Cottages 100% assures a great Caribbean getaway. It works so well to be right there on the water, in a very clean cottage with anything... More

We recently returned to the mainland from our latest stay at Cottages by the Sea. Obviously we are happy there and truly consider it a second home. During our month-long stay we spent time with other folks who are repeat visitors and met several who were enjoying their first stay. It was great to be withThe Benedict family, Carmen, Rose,...
