The newly renovated Cliff Breeze Cottage is a stand-alone cottage located on the south-eastern cliff shore of beautiful Water Island, the little-known 4th U.S. Virgin Island. The Cottage is cooled year-round by the famous Trade Winds, which blow across the Atlantic from Africa and act as nature’s air conditioning in the Caribbean — hence the name, Cliff Breeze Cottage. Of course, air conditioning is awesome after a little too much sun, and the Cottage is equipped with an a/c unit to take the heat off you in the evenings.

The back porch is kept isolated and private by natural foliage barriers, such that when you are on the back porch, not a soul on the planet can see you. You, however, will have a magnificent view of Sprat Bay, Hassel Island, the southern coast of St. Thomas, Green Cay, Buck Island, and French Cap. You’ll be able to see the national parks on St. John cresting over St. Thomas, and on a clear day, you’ll spot St. Croix rising out of the sea nearly 40 miles to the south. From the porch, you’ll hear the Caribbean waves crashing against the cliff below, and you can take a short stroll to the edge until your close enough to feel the salt spray kiss your face.

If you manage to tire of the view and the breeze, the world-famous Honeymoon Beach in Druif Bay is a short walk away. This beach is one of the most beautiful beaches on Earth. On Honeymoon Beach, we usually have a few beach bars and restaurants (notably Heidi’s Honeymoon Bar & Grill and Dingy’s Beach Bar) where you can order some tasty local food, have a cocktail or ten, or rent a kayak, paddleboard or jet ski. Of course, you can also just lime-out on the beach, swim, or snorkel with some of the sea turtles and marine life that hangout just offshore.

If you want a more secluded beach, you can explore and adventure your way to Tree of Lost Soles and the much-less visited Limestone Beach.

There are also golf carts available for rent, either per day or per week, for exploring or cruising around Water Island.

The Cottage itself is laid-out similar to a studio and has 1 bedroom with 1 queen sized bed and a bathroom and shower. The kitchen and living room are separated from the bedroom, but only slightly by a curtain and not with a door. The living room contains a sleeper sofa with a queen size hide-a-bed.

Maximum guest capacity is 4 people, but please understand that anyone sleeping on the sofa will have to access the bathroom in the bedroom. In other words, 4 very good friends or family will be sharing a cozy space.

The Cottage has a Smart-TV, and we are blasting the best Wi-Fi available in the United States Virgin Islands. If you need some time out of the sea and sun, you can stream any of your favorite shows from Netflix, Hulu, HBO, or Amazon, or you can watch some of the many shows we have available on the Apple TV.

If you want to explore St. Thomas or St. John beaches, bars and restaurants, the Water Island ferry runs from Crown Bay Marina to Water Island and it takes about 15 minutes, usually running on the hour from approximately 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. You’ll need to check ferry schedules with the ferry operator to be certain.

If you want to rent a boat for fishing, snorkeling or island hopping to the British Virgin Islands or Puerto Rico, we know plenty of safe friendly captains with cool boats and fair rates. Just ask.

Finally, if you want to avoid the hassle of your initial grocery shopping trip and would like us to provision the Cottage for you with food, wine and booze, we have a local provisioning company that can source the best and freshest food and drink in the USVI. Again, just ask and we can provide you the details and some estimated prices.
