Map & Owner's Profile
Luxury Villa St. Croix
Year Purchased: 2004
Why the Owner Chose Cotton Valley Shores
We sailed throughout the Carribean over the years, but only discovered St Croix in recent years. We wondered how we missed this beautiful island, but immediately fell in love with its natural wonders, rich culture and wonderful people. So purchasing Cotton House was an easy decision.
The Unique Benefits at this Villa
Cotton House provides us with the privacy to enjoy pool-side reading and quiet dinners with friends. The island provides wonderful days on the beach, sailing to Buck Island, or fine dining with friends. We return to our Maryland home refreshed, but longing to return to paradise.

Dr. Edward Delaney is a retired university professor and administrator. His wife, Dr. Betty Anderson is a prominent scientist who manages an international risk assessment practice. In summer, we enjoy sailing our Little Harbor, Blue Star, on the Chesapeake Bay and East Coast, but winters take us to St Croix and the Carribean.

My wife and daughter found Cotton House on-line...A very sceptical hubby is happy she did. A lovely home, well cared for, well located, well appointed. Everything worked, the pool was wonderful, neighbors and strangers were helpful. We could not have had a better time - great trip!

The kitchen was so well equipped. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us. It was very comfortable and easy to feel at home in.

Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful home with our family - the great kitchen, beautiful grounds and spectacular view! We enjoyed every moment of "Life in the Left Lane" - snorkeling at Buck Island, fishing, exploring the rainforest, shopping in Christiansted, scuba diving, and most of all relaxing on your lovely veranda. We will be back!
