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,...

The cottages have access to and are on one of the nicest snorkeling beaches I have seen. the cotages are well equipped and you only need to bring the usual things for a vacation rental (good knives, specific kitchen tools, etc). There... More

We will be going back this spring for our third year in a row the the loveliest spot in the world. We can't wait to see our family away from family. Paul, Ruth, and Donovan always welcome us with open arms, and Carmen, Lynda, and the lovely Rose take wonderful care of us while we escape to this perfect cottage... More

We stayed 4 nights in the biggest one bedroom apartment. It was pretty and airy room with everything we needed. We cooked a few meals. The beach in front of the hotel is nice for swimming and has great lounge chairs. We took a walk to the Sandy Point to the south. It was gorgeous. Loved being close to Frederiksted.... More

We returned to St. Croix again this year after falling in love with it last year. We stayed again at Cottages by the Sea since last year's vacation was so perfect. We had the most adorable room with everything that you needed included in it. Our internet connection was perfect as was our AC! I cannot recommend Cottages by the... More

My boyfriend and I went for our first vacation here. After stumbling around for a good place to stay, this place was highly recommended by Tripadvisor, and I can see why! Upon our arrival, we found out that Cowry was out of commission due to a broken AC unit, Paul and Gale upgraded us for free to the lovely Calabash.... More

My wife & I spent a long weekend at Cottages by the Sea having found it on the internet.. Arrived late on Friday night w/o reservations. The young lady gave us a room that was quite, clean, comfortable and just steps away from the beach. The next morning, we met the owner who was very helpful. Gave us the name... More

The staff was pleasant and helpful, the cottages were clean and functional with refrigerators, air conditioning units, and stoves, the water was close and beautiful, the beach was... More

My wife and I spent our belated honeymoon at Cottages by the Sea in late June. We absolutely loved everything about it. Stayed in the Crow's Nest. Absolutely PERFECT view of the beach and water from our porch. Although AC is in the room, we didn't need it at all because of the constant breeze that flows through the rooms.... More
