About this property

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.

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!

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.

Beautiful place, wonderful hosts

Our stay at the cottage in Judith’s Fancy was nothing short of amazing! The property is tucked away in a tranquil, gated community, providing a perfect blend of privacy and security. The cottage itself was beautifully designed, clean, and well-equipped with all the amenities we could ask for.We especially loved the outdoor patio, where we could sip our morning coffee. The views were breathtaking—just a short walk to the ocean, with gentle breezes and the sound of waves to complete the experience.The location was ideal: close enough to explore the island’s highlights, yet far enough to feel like a true getaway. Whether it was visiting nearby beaches, sampling local restaurants, or taking in the vibrant culture of St. Croix, everything was conveniently accessible.The hosts were responsive and went out of their way to ensure we had a comfortable stay. We can’t recommend this cottage enough for anyone looking for a peaceful escape in St. Croix.

The Perfect Island Getaway Location

Chad and Emily are perfect hosts, and we couldn't have asked for better accommodations for our island getaway. The cottage is comfortable and has everything you need - even if you didn't know you needed it, like a welcome bottle of rum from the hosts and a closet stocked with beach equipment. This was our second stay at the cottage - we hope to return soon!

Perfect spot for a relaxing get away!

This was our third time staying on St. Croix and by far our favorite place we've stayed! The owners have truly thought of everything from a fully stocked kitchen to everything you need for the beach (cooler, chairs, beach towels, floaties, etc)! The location is perfect - very close to downtown Christiansted and Mermaid Beach and not a far drive to other beaches like Rainbow and Cane Bay. We'll definitely be back and this will be our first choice for booking!

About the host

Hosted by Chad Walter

Host profile image
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.
