Lance and I stayed here on our last visit and the owners, David and Denise, are an absolute delight. Best for couples, as the rooms are not that large, the hotel is walking distance from the ferry dock and most other attractions in Cruz Bay. If you do choose the Cruz Bay Boutique Hotel, please mention that you are part of the Simprini/O'Brien wedding when booking.

VRBO and Airbnb also offer many options for accomodations. PLEASE NOTE: Many rentals are located on the far side of the island far away from our wedding activities and often times remote places where taxi's will not take you. The best area to stay in is Cruz Bay as it offers easy access to the ferry station, most bars and restaurants and popular beaches. If you think you've found your perfect match on one of these websites, please send the link to our wedding planner, Mary Bartolucci (mary@islandstyleweddings.com), so she can confirm the location makes sense for your stay.
