St. Croix marketing
that fills rooms and tables.
One team for your whole business. Hotels, villas, restaurants, and tours. More direct bookings, more repeat guests, fewer empty seats when high season ends. St. Croix marketing run by people who actually live in the Virgin Islands.
The booking sites take a cut of every stay. Low season takes the rest.
St. Croix runs on stay-over guests, not cruise day-trippers, which means every booking counts. Most St. Croix owners we meet are losing 15 to 25 percent of each one to Airbnb and Booking.com, have no way to reach the guests who already stayed, and go quiet the moment high season ends. Hotel, restaurant, or charter, the problem is the same.
“Every booking comes through Booking.com. They keep 20 percent.”
Boutique hotel · Christiansted
“I have no email list. I can’t reach my past guests.”
Villa owner · East End
“Locals don’t know we’re here, and the slow season hurts.”
Restaurant · Frederiksted
One team for everything on St. Croix.
Whatever kind of business you run, we market it the same honest way: send you customers who book direct and come back. Pick your lane.
Hotel & villa marketing
A fast website with a real booking button, top spot on Google, and a guest list you own. You keep the whole payment instead of feeding Booking.com.
Restaurant marketing
Get found by locals and stay-over guests, fill tables through the slow months, and turn one visit into ten with email and loyalty that actually gets used.
Tour & charter marketing
More direct bookings for your day sails, dives, and excursions, so you stop handing 20 to 30 percent to Viator and own the customer relationship.
Wedding & event marketing
Show up when couples search for a St. Croix venue, capture the inquiry, and follow up so the booking does not slip to the next island.
We live here. That is the difference.
We are based in the US Virgin Islands and work across St. Thomas, St. John, and St. Croix. We know what a slow September on St. Croix feels like, how locals find a Christiansted restaurant, and when to spend on ads for an East End villa. A mainland agency is guessing. We are not.
“Tourists fill high season. Locals fill the rest. We build for both.”
One team runs everything, so you are not chasing five vendors. We build your website with a real direct booking website, then we run it. We do not hand you a login and disappear. Curious what the booking sites cost you? Try our free OTA Commission Calculator.
St. Croix marketing, answered.
Do you only work with hotels?
No. We run St. Croix marketing for hotels and villas, restaurants and bars, tour and charter operators, and event venues. The playbook is the same: more direct bookings, less commission, and guests who come back.
Do you work with small St. Croix properties?
Yes. Most of the owners we work with run boutique hotels of 5 to 50 rooms, a few villas, or a restaurant. Boutique is the whole point.
How much are the booking sites really costing me?
Most owners lose 15 to 25 percent of every booking. On a villa doing 200,000 dollars a year through Airbnb and Booking.com, that is 30,000 to 50,000 dollars gone. Try our OTA Commission Calculator to see your number.
