Cotton House is the place to be for a breezy, beachfront vacation. This three-bedroom villa sits on the eastern end of St. Croix near Teague Bay.

The wide lawn’s stone walkway stretches down to a secluded beach with excellent snorkeling and calm waters. Wear water shoes on the way down, because the beach’s rugged beauty is framed by rocky outcroppings. The oceanfront pool offers equally gorgeous views, and is perfectly sized for swimming laps and diving. A large sundeck with a barbecue grill and loungers surrounds the pool, while a canopied dining table sits off to the side. Cotton House’s elegant covered balcony overlooks the pool and sundeck from an elevated perch. The balcony is well-furnished for enjoying cups of coffee, a good book, card games, and conversations with loved ones.

The open-concept kitchen and living area enjoy panoramic views of Buck Island and the sea through floor-to-ceiling glass doors. Classic West Indian decor pairs with hand-carved teak and aged mahogany furnishings in the living and dining room. The kitchen is fully equipped with built-in appliances, a coffee maker, and a breakfast bar. Satellite TV, a washing machine, and a dryer are available as well. High-speed WiFi, central air-conditioning, and ceiling fans run throughout the villa. Cotton House’s three bedrooms each have access to an ensuite bathroom and the large covered balcony. Two suites have king beds, and one has two twins.

Cotton House is located on the quieter side of the island near several trailheads and scenic points. Restaurants, water sports, and beaches are within a short drive.
