Meredith Zimmerman: St Croix Honeymoon and Wedding Photographer
“It’s not about taking the perfect photo in the perfect pose at the most perfect location. It’s all about capturing two people in their element – capturing how they felt at the time and telling the truth through the image. Yes, it can be fun and beautiful, or maybe a little messy and out of focus – but those are the moments that mean the most. It’s pretty freakin’ cool to be able to freeze that split second in time when everything felt good or happy or crazy or sad. Whatever it is, I aim for my photos to just tell the truth.”

Which is better for a honeymoon, St. Croix or St. Thomas in 2024?
This is a popular question many newlyweds ask, and we found a good summary discussing the pros and cons of each island: Is St Thomas or St Croix best for a honeymoon?
In general, if you’re looking for more up-scale shopping, a larger selection of restaurants and more all-inclusive honeymoon resorts, St. Thomas is perhaps the choice. Alternatively, if you prefer less crowds, more nature and scenic places to explore, and better diving, then St. Croix is definitely the better choice.
What’s the best time for a Honeymoon in St. Croix?
January-May is the best time to Honeymoon in St. Croix.
You won’t hit the holiday crowds in December, and you won’t run into the rainy season, which officially starts June 1. In April/May, make sure you stay away from Easter and Spring Break when the island might be more crowded.
However, even during busier seasons, St Croix is large enough that you’ll still be able to find hidden oases off the beaten path.

Reviews of The Honeymoon Cottage St Croix on Airbnb
Caitlin
- March 2023
Loved this spot for our honeymoon! Will definitely be back.
Todd
- January 2023
What an absolute gem. Pure heaven and Reginald was a wonderful and responsible host. We cannot recommend highly enough! Your own island respite on St Croix. Thank you, Reginald!
Micaela

The location is beautiful! Hard to find because the address provided didn’t take you to the house it takes your somewhere else. The house is run off a generator so we tried to be conscious of what was running.
Shane
- October 2022
Incredible location with views and privacy as described – 10/10 would return and recommend! The location is isolated from food/groceries so having a car is probably ideal, especially for stays more than a few days.

I have never seen a host more deserving of 500 stars, not just 5. Reginald went above and beyond to make our stay perfect, even met us at the restaurant to say hello and gave us some local fishing tips. He answered all our questions about the island and took care of a lot of the details for us. We can’t wait to return and stay with friends at another one of his properties. Seriously would never want to stay in a property he isn’t hosting! Thank you again sir! As for the honeymoon cottage I was sure the pictures were just great pictures and didn’t expect it to be this secluded or beautiful. You really are on this cliff all alone. We came for our honeymoon that we didn’t take 20 years ago and it was romantic and beautiful. We now plan to retire at St Croix.

We can’t say enough nice things about this AirBnB! The cottage is incredible. Fully stocked kitchen equipment, super clean and the location is truly a sanctuary.
We spent our Honeymoon here. The water hitting against the cliff sides, the lovely pool and the star-gazing was unlike anything we’ve ever seen.
The “cherry on top” was the host. Reginald went above and beyond to ensure our stay was great. We stayed during Tropical Storm Fiona and the cottage was SUPER sturdy. We felt safe the entire time and Reggie was very communicative with our questions!
Side note: The stay includes a $100 restaurant voucher to 1 of 3 local restaurants (read the print at the bottom of the booking!) Also, recommend renting a Jeep for the Island, getting around the bumpy roads was much more navigable!

Might be the best airbnb I have stayed at and could not ask for a better host. Reginald was very accommodating. The place was beautiful!

The Honeymoon Cottage is the perfect getaway. You feel like you’re on an island all on your own. The views from the cottage were amazing from stargazing at night to watching turtles swim by. There are many great secluded beaches nearby to relax on. Whenever we had any questions Reginald was quick to answer. We had a great stay celebrating our 25th anniversary!
Kevin

We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Already miss the sound of waves crashing while star gazing
Villa was extremely clean, dipping pool was enjoyable. The breeze is strong and the house was generally cool due to the breezes allowing one to open up Vs using AC . Bed was comfortable. the couches were nice and set up nicely to enjoy the view from the sliding doors Glasses, plates, pots and pans were provided. If your planning on cooking a lot you will have to pick up essentials as Salt/Pepper/etc wernt provided
there’s a nice beach walking right outside the door to the east, with a good spot to throw a blanket down and have a cup of coffee or beverage of your choice (its about a 1/4 mi walk – look for the palm trees)
We didnt get any odor from the Sargassum (there was a lot less here than at the Divi or on the East ead over by Duggans)
If you’re looking for seclusion, yet not being too far from town this is a great optionShow more

The Honeymoon Cottage is a great place to stay at in St. Croix! We loved the location! It was so nice being able to sit outside and enjoy listening to the waves crashing against the rocks. So relaxing! We also enjoyed the privacy and space it gave us.
We couldn’t have asked for a better host. Reginald did a great job of communicating with us during our trip. He was always available if we needed anything, and he always made sure to check on us to see how it was going.
We enjoyed our stay at The Honeymoon Cottage, and we would love to come back again some day!

VI Premier Vacation Rentals was great to work with from booking to meeting us at the house and was responsive to one minor maintenance question. I highly recommend them.
The house has a truly amazing one of a kind view and came with many small details such as fresh pastries, a bottle of rum, nice bath towels, beach towels, quality bathrobes, laundry and dish soap and a well equipped kitchen. The bed was comfy and the house was clean. However, the home is probably overdue for a bit of TLC – broken furniture, missing pictures on the walls and a few minor things not working. Overall, we had no real complaints about the house. The lower than expected rating is mostly due to the extreme remote location of the home and the wind which made the beautiful rear patio simply unusable. Due to the wind, the pool was too cold to use even though it was 83 degrees and sunny every day. The outside chase lounge chairs were broken leaving nothing to sit on outside. Anything not tied down would blow away. Unfortunately, we ended up spending most of our vacation elsewhere on the island
