Private St. Croix home with sunset views overlooking beautiful Cane Bay

Please note that the rates reflected in the Rates & Availability calendar are the daily rates for stays of less than 7 days. For stays of 7 days or more, you will automatically receive a discount of 10% per night.

Enjoy your own Caribbean retreat on St. Croix! Cane Bay Cottage is a beautifully updated three-bedroom home featuring stunning views, from forested mountains and shoreline bluffs to sweeping ocean vistas reaching the neighboring islands of St. Thomas and St. John. The recently refinished swimming pool and wrap-around covered patio provide wonderful outdoor perches for relaxing and enjoying those views, including amazing sunsets and the sounds of the surf hitting the shore below.

Guests regularly return to Cane Bay Cottage due to the great experience, location, and amenities. The landscaped property is surrounded by trees and is accessible only through secured electric gates, providing natural surroundings and privacy for you and your guests. Conveniently located close to Cane Bay Beach along the north shore of St. Croix, both Christiansted and Frederiksted are within easy reach. This home is thoughtfully equipped with everything you need to enjoy your stay, and is perfectly suited for a couple’s retreat, a family vacation, or a trip with friends.

A concierge service is included in your rental – this is particularly helpful for first-time visitors to St. Croix. A staff concierge will contact you before your trip to introduce themselves and answer any questions you may have. Upon your arrival, they will meet you at the airport and guide you to Cane Bay Cottage, then show you around the property and ensure you have everything you need for a great vacation. The concierges have great suggestions for activities and can even help you make reservations.

You will be staying about a quarter-mile from Cane Bay, with one of the most notable beaches on the island due to its shady and sandy shoreline, calm waters and walk-out dive access to the famous Cane Bay Wall. Featuring three casual waterfront restaurants, a romantic beachside bistro, and the regular parking spot for an island-favorite breakfast food truck, you never have to go far for good eats and drinks! Diving and snorkeling enthusiasts can visit Sweet Bottom Dive Center to rent gear, arrange a dive tour, walk across the beach, and within minutes start exploring the shallows or the Cane Bay Wall. Or, when you would rather just relax, take the house’s beach chairs down the hill, grab a cold drink from a nearby restaurant, and see if you can spot sea turtles swimming just offshore!

After a day of beach fun or other island exploration, return to the house and its magnificent vistas. Enjoy the spectacular views of Cane Bay while taking a cooling dip in the pool, from a sunny chaise lounge, or in a shady spot on the 1000 square feet of tiled patio space. Finish your day with an unbelievable sunset. For an added touch, connect via Bluetooth to the stereo system and listen poolside to your favorite music through the house-wide speaker system.

In the master bedroom, you will wake up to the stunning views after a restful night on a king-size bed complete with a new, top-of-line memory foam mattress. The master also includes a flat screen HDTV and its own updated private bathroom. Each of the other two bedrooms have queen beds; they share a second updated bathroom featuring a stone tile shower and a granite countertop vanity. All the bedrooms have their own ultra-quiet split A/C units for a cool, comfortable night’s sleep, while the living room has an A/C unit of its own. Ceiling fans feature in every room of the house as well as the patio to keep the cooling breezes flowing, and Travertine tile flooring features throughout.

The fully equipped kitchen features a gas range, stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops. If you prefer to cook outside, there is a gas grill in the pool area. There are both an indoor and a covered outdoor dining area, each with seating for six. The comfortable living room includes a flat screen HDTV while the outdoor covered gallery includes a sitting area with a sofa and two swivel rockers. A washer and dryer are also available for your use. Cable TV and Wi-Fi high-speed internet service are all included – though any plans to work may be at risk of distraction from the views!

This home is respectful of the nature around it. The lush tropical landscaping merges with the surrounding tropical forest, with flowers and native fruit trees that attract hummingbirds, the occasional gecko, and more. To complement this fantastic setting, the house itself is environmentally friendly. Rainwater is collected into cisterns and then passed through a four-step purification system to provide high-quality, great-tasting water. Solar panels and Tesla battery walls satisfy the home’s electricity needs. Everything about the house fits in with the paradise surrounding it.

Cane Bay Cottage is truly a special place, and we look forward to sharing it with you. Your Crucian tropical retreat awaits!

My wife's 40th Birthday Bash.
Cane Bay cottage was awesome! What a treat is was to stay there and experience St. Croix. Annabel, the concierge was most helpful and met us right at the airport and showed us the grocery store, local area and the way to the house. Normally, I wouldn't think this service would be needed but it definitely helped and was very useful. We lucked out with the weather as it was the end of hurricane season. I would definitely recommend a 4 wheel drive car rental. The road up to the cottage can be a bit challenging the first few days. Our group really enjoyed a day boat trip out to Buck island. The coral was incredible and there were quite a few turtles and plenty of gorgeous fish. The cottage was kept up very nicely. The air-conditioning worked well and all the showers, etc. Having stayed at quite a few island properties, this is not always the case... We loved the pool and the views of the bay. After spending a few days going all around the island, we realized that the best beach for hanging out and snorkeling was right in front of us the whole time! Make sure and spend some time right there in the bay. I would 100% recommend a stay here and hope to return soon.

Our family of 4 had an amazing stay at Cane Bay Cottage. The listing photos and description are completely accurate. The furniture, beach chairs, kitchen items were all great. There was nothing we needed that was not provided. Annabel the host was great from start to finish. She was very responsive and made us fantastic rum punches upon arrival at the home. I highly recommend this rental!

Paradise
This was our 5th extended vacation in St. Croix but our first time at Cane Bay Cottage. We loved everything about this property. It was clean and well equipped. The views were breathtaking and the panoramic vistas were always changing and simply mesmerizing. It was very private and we loved that. We were nestled in the beautiful cottage high on the hillside with nothing but nature. Waking up to that view from the master bedroom was a highlight of the trip. The owners were wonderful to deal with and extremely responsive. Annabelle was wonderful and gracious on island. The road, with its 3 hairpin turns was one of our favorite parts. We have not one negative to say. Cane Bay Cottage is truly a gem and we nicknamed it Paradise. We are hoping to repeat the same 18 days next year. Jeff and Cassandra, thank you for opening your beautiful home for others to enjoy!

Amazing vacation spot!
This was a magical place to spend a week. The location is perfect (if you’re looking for tranquility while still being close to Cane Bay, restaurants, etc) and the views are pretty much unbelievable (the gorgeous photos on the listing don’t even convey the beauty!). I would highly recommend a 4 wheel drive vehicle (we rented a jeep) since the roads are steep and rough. Though the house is way up the hill, you can still hear the waves from Cane Bay perfectly! Highly recommend!!!

Peaceful paradise
If you are looking for a peaceful retreat with absolutely stunning surroundings, this is the spot. While there are restaurants and an awesome beach within minutes, you can escape back up the cottage to take it all in and relax on the wrap around porch or in the pool. It is very quiet and welcoming. The pictures can’t capture the real awesomeness! We rarely spent any time indoors because the yard and porch were just the perfect spot! The breakfast food truck down the hill on Tuesday, Thursday, saturday and Sunday is an awesome choice before the other restaurants open around 11. Anabel was very helpful meeting us at airport and being the contact person on the island during our stay. We definitely want to come back!

Great villa!
My husband and I just returned from a wonderful week at the villa. It exceeded our expectations in every area! The view was breathtaking and the outdoor area to enjoy that view was very spacious with covered and non-covered areas. The pool is perfectly placed as well. The villa was very clean, kitchen was well stocked, and the master bedroom had an amazing view, comfortable bed and option for air conditioning. We didn’t use the air in the rest of the house because the windows and breeze were enough but can be an option for those who prefer that. Shera contacted us before our visit, met us at the airport and answered our many questions during our stay-she was very helpful and friendly! As other reviews have said, the roads are a bit challenging with a lot of potholes too so a 4WD is very helpful. We really enjoyed Sandy Beach, Leatherback Brewery, The Landing, Sea Thru Kayaks, Christiansted Boardwalk and Cane Bay Beach (right down the hill). We highly recommended this villa!

Beautiful location
This home is in a perfect location with an amazing view of the ocean. I was surprised on arrival that I could hear the waves!! The house was comfortable, you can't beat the porch and pool area. Large space with deck furniture for lounging, table for eating, all in the shade. Then sunny pool area with lounge chairs. Sunset view every night!! Owners, concierge, property manager, everyone was very communicative and want to answer your questions and help. A big shout out and thanks to Shera who met us at airport, showed us to the house and answered our many questions about where to get groceries and find a doctor. Fyi Pro Health Urgent care was professional and got our needs met so we could then resume vacation. :) Also, down the street from house is a beach and several restaurants that are great!

All I can say is Awesome! This was our second time visiting St. Croix. This home has everything you need. We loved the privacy, especially the pool area. We spent most of our time out by the pool and on the deck. The views are incredible. The owners were very responsive as well as the host and property manager. Yes, the road is a little scary at first but you get used to it and well worth it. We also had a wonderful dinner at AMA Cane Bay on the water (highly recommend). Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home. We will be back!

Piece of paradise
This was my second trip to Saint Croix. This time, to celebrate my sister’s 50th birthday. I selected Jeff and Cassandra’s house because of the stunning views and great location, and thought it would be the perfect place to introduce my family to the beauty the island has to offer. The convenience of being close to a beach, and one of the best dining experiences at Ama’s (literally next to the waves) within minutes of drive, made it even better than I expected. Waking up to the view of the ocean and lush mountain greenery every morning, was peaceful and breathtaking..The communication with the host was easy and quick. Prior to our trip I reached to Jeff with any questions/concerns and he put me in touch with one of his concierges. Annabelle was a delight and texted with me so we could arrange to have certain grocery items purchased ahead of time. She met us at the airport and we followed her to the house. I was concerned because the road leading up is indeed windy if you’re not used to that sort of thing. But we felt safe in the gated property and felt comfortable with the drive in no time! The house had every amenity and felt like home. We’d definitely return!

Things you should know….
The villa and pool are amazing. The island and amenities leave a lot to be desired. The local restaurants are OK but after a week they get old. We lost power a number of times one for 12 hours. You have no cell service you have no water, the gates will not open without electricity unless you can figure out how to open the gate. I had to reset the pool pump the pressure tank for the cistern. I was asked to hook up a generator. That I thought was a little unexpected. This place should have its own generator and air conditioning throughout the building not just in the bedrooms. We made the best of the vacation. The beaches are small and remote. We went to the casino. Make sure you come back before dark. It’s a scary ride. We left one of the local restaurants at dark and a bunch of drunks, threw beer cans at our car coming out of the landing restaurant the police didnt care about anything like that the Island never recovered from the hurricanes in 2017. Do a lot of research before you select this location

A slice of Paradise!
Cane Bay Cottage is truly a magical place! We spent one week with our adult son and daughter (21 and 25) and one week alone as a couple. This was our second stay at The Cottage and it was even better than the first. Every aspect of this home is designed for beauty, comfort and relaxation. It was hard to tear ourselves away from the Cottage to explore the island and activities! There are so many awesome things to do on St. Croix, but we all agreed that the best part of visiting the island was staying at the Cottage. Everything is comfortable and easy to use. The beds were great, breakfast on the deck looking out over Cane Bay was a perfect way to start the day and grilling by the pool with music on the speakers, watching the sun sink down and turn into amazing sunsets was so fun and relaxing. There is no way to really describe how beautiful the view is from the Cottage. The arrival and check-in process was totally easy. Our host on site, Shera, was so gracious and friendly in welcoming us and making us feel comfortable and her help really contributed to making our trip a success. Thank you so much, Shera! Jeff and Cassandra are such great owners with prompt, efficient and friendly communication. We are grateful to them for opening up their beautiful home and sharing this amazing place where we made so many happy, family memories. Don't hesitate to make this your next family trip!!

Slice of Paradise!
We had a perfect stay at the cottage. The photos matched, the location was spectacular and the support we got from the property manager Shera was exceptional. The view from the house overlooking Cane Bay is unbelievable. We spent most of our time (when at the house) on the porch looking out over the water and mountains from the crazy comfortable deck furniture (specifically the two armchair rockers)! The location is a little out of the way if you are looking to be within walking distance of shops, but if you are ok with a short drive for that, we would recommend Cane Bay over other neighborhoods. It had the best off-beach snorkeling and has several restaurants and a food truck that made grabbing lunch and dinner so easy! We will be back - thanks to the Cottage crew for making our stay so special!

Fabulous Cane Bay Cottage
This was our first trip to St. Croix, and we had a great time. Annabell met us at the airport, and she was great. We got a brand new Jeep from Centerline Car Rentals, and then she led us to the house. The house has one of the best views on all of St. Croix. The house was clean, it was stocked with everything you need, and the pool was fantastic. Right below the house are the restaurants called The Landing and Ama, and next door to Ama is Waves Sunset Bar. We went to Christiansted and Frederiksted and went shopping, visited the Mutiny Vodka Distellery, and the Botanical Gardens. I would definitely recommend Cane Bay Cottage, and can't wait to visit St. Croix again. King Lamons Nashville, TN

We are a family of four, including two teenagers. The entire experience was fantastic! Annabell was the best. Rental cars were slim during our stay and she went above and beyond to ensure we found a reputable business to work with. She met us at the airport on our arrival and gave us fantastic tips to ensure we had a great stay. The view is underrepresented in the pictures. The beauty of the view can not be fully captured by pictures! The house is well represented by the listing and provided us with wonderful memories! Several great and easy places to eat at near by. Cane Bay beach is so close and was probably the best of the beaches we visited for snorkeling. Definitely preferred the west, rainforest side, over the east, desert like side. Would book this cottage again without hesitation.
