Luxurious Oceanfront Honeymoon Cottage - as seen on HGTV - Gated Subdivision
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.

Loved our stay - sitting on the porch watching the waves roll in! Clean well maintained property with everything we needed for a relaxing week. Location was close to Christiansted for dining but would definitely recommend a rental car to get around the island.
My wife and I stayed here for an anniversary trip and had an amazing time! The house was absolutely perfect! Great location and right on the beach. House was clean and hosts were very proactive and responsive. I would highly recommend!
This stay was amazing! The he house had everything we needed. We loved the community and the hosts were the best that we have experienced. We will definitely be back!
This is the best neighborhood and cottage to stay at on the whole island. When anyone on the island asked where we were staying and I said Judith’s Fancy they all knew that it was the nicest area on the island. It's just 10 minutes to Christiansted and around 20 minutes to Fredricstad. The hosts Chad and Emily couldn't be more friendly and inviting. They helped us find the best places to see. It was just an all around great place to stay
The cottage was wonderful. The secluded beach was so beautiful. Emily the host went way beyond the extra mile when our car rental fell through. She took us to the grocery store on our arrival since we were stranded and then to pick up our rental car when available. We also found home made cupcakes in the fridge to celebrate my wife’s birthday!
Such a great stay! Chad and Emily were fabulous. Anytime we had questions, they were quick to answer. Cottage was quaint. We love to cook when we are on vacation and found everything we needed in the cottage. Sunrises on the beach were amazing. It was my birthday and Emily surprised me with cupcakes on arrival. Such a great personal touch.
Super clean and incredibly well stocked cottage. Perfect location on your own private beach. The hosts were absolutely amazing, so personable and attentive, greeted us upon arrival with homemade cookies! The hermit crab sanctuary was a great bonus. We could not have asked for a better location for our St. Croix vacation. Highly recommend! 12 out of 10 stars!!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! The cottage was perfect - very comfortable, and a nice quiet location. Chad was great, quick to respond to all of my questions, etc. We'd book the cottage again, as it was perfect for us. Clean, well stocked, great location. This was our first visit to St. Croix, and I'm sure it won't be our last!
The cottage was great. Very clean, well stocked, very homey. The directions to the cottage from airport were perfect. Chad and Emily were nice and welcoming. They left info, on were to Eat ,shop, beaches .This was extremely helpful. I would highly recommend staying. We had a lovely time
The property was just as advertised. We felt safe in the neighborhood and the property was super cozy! Love love the hermit crab sanctuary. They can control the sea grass just wish there was less of. Great communication with Chad.
great location and so very well appointed!! everything we needed to cook a bit, beach chairs and coolers for when we headed out. very friendly and helpful hosts!
Very beautiful setting in a very safe area. Chad and Emily were very friendly and helpful in suggesting areas to see. It was a short stay but would definitely go back again. Location was central to everything. Bed was comfortable and cottage was extremely clean.
We completely enjoyed our two week stay at this property. All was as advertised and it was centrally located to all activities. Lovely safe neighborhood and was able to connect with friendly hosts throughout our stay. Perfect porch for morning coffee and sunrises. A
This is a beautiful location right on the ocean and very central to activities on the island. Chad and Emily were there to greet us, offered us great suggestions as to how to enjoy the island, and even made us delicious cookies upon our arrival.The cottage is well-appointed and very clean. The space is very private and separate from the main house. We enjoyed golfing, snorkeling and hiking on the island, and we would certainly recommend this cottage to couples who just want to get away! Enjoy the ocean breeze and the beach!
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.
We loved everything about our stay at the Cottage. Our hosts Chad and Emily truly thought of everything when they put together this vacation home! The location is perfect and the house is well stocked with everything you could need. We cannot wait for our next trip!

About the host
Hosted by Chad Walter
Chad and Emily moved to St. Croix in 2008. They proceeded to build their dream home on the beach in 2011, finishing in 2012. They decided to build a separate cottage to rent out to couples looking for something different, something more private than what is offered at hotels.
Why they chose this property
The location of this property is on the beach in the gated community of Judith's Fancy. The neighborhood has 9 miles of roads to walk and run all while looking out at the turquoise water. The property is situated mid-island, so you are a short drive to anything you want to explore in St. Croix. We are located approximately 4 miles west of Christiansted.
What makes this property unique
Beachfront. Gated subdivision with 24-hour security. 15-foot ceilings. Great neighborhood for walking and running and it backs up to national park land.
