Relaxing home away from home

This condo is in the best area of the island. On a protected bay for snorkeling, has a sand beach, has a pool within feet of the front door, has a beautiful property with mature plantings. There is a security gate with officer. It is a third and fourth floor walk up. Faces the pool, restaurant and Christiansted out the back. And from the fourth floor, faces the northwest waterline. The breeze across the rear deck is fantastic. The longer you stay, the deeper the discount. Stay and enjoy our wonderful island and all that it has to offer!

The Apt was great and well appointed. Location perfect & communication was excellent. The HOA needs to set up their maintenance and over all up grade a few things. We liked it was a gated community, had a pool and walking beach to sea with good snorkeling. Saw lots of fish turtle and hammer head.

Like home, but plus sun, sand, and the beach! 🌴
The host, Marti, was so great about communicating throughout our trip. She provided detailed instructions, lots of St. Croix suggestions and was available during the entire week. The location is drivable to anywhere on the island but was far enough to be relaxing and didn’t feel touristy. Walking access to lots of beautiful beaches, nice pool, and the sunrises were incredible. Plus, the second balcony gave us some nice sunsets too! Great stay!

Great price, good location
For the price, size, and location, this is a great property. But with the lower price point come some issues. The beds are comfortable, but the sheets are pilled and should be replaced. The comforters were dusty and need washing. The kitchen always feels a little dirty. Cupboards are packed with stuff and nothing feels clean. But it has all of the basics and tons of extras: beach chairs (some broken), beach towels, floaties, snorkel gear (worked great), and cooler (broken but functional). Not sure how this is legal, but to unlock the door from the inside you must use a key - so if there is a fire you could be trapped. The lock sticks, it was quite a pain to get in and out. But landlord was very responsive when we had a plumbing problem, and the location is close to everything. So if sheets, comforters, lock, and kitchen cabinets are replaced this would be a 5 star rental.

Would love to stay again
There were a couple issues beyond the owners control but she was very responsive in assisting with getting things done. We enjoyed our stay for 2 weeks. The on-site restaurant has awesome food and drinks. The pool was so refreshing at night for nightly swims. Will definitely look at staying again. Thank you Marti!!!

Sea breeze
There are always things that can be improved in a property, but I feel like it was what I expected. The location was great, proximity to Christiansted was good, the sea breeze was amazing, no need for AC. Kids liked the privacy of the loft, and having their own balcony.

Great place for the price! Located close to grocery and other shopping downtown. Beds were clean and comfortable. Views were spectacular. The kitchen had everything we needed plus lots of extras in the spices which was a big plus. Would definitely stay here again. Love St Croix!

Nice Gem
Marti was excellent with all communication. She went above and beyond in assisting me with multiple questions and always responded quickly. The interior of the property has been updated, and the complex is currently making other upgrades. The complex is gated with security and we always felt safe and secure. The neighborhood is an older area but is a great location mid- island. It is no more than 30 minutes to both sides of the island. Only about 10 minutes into Christiansted with lots a restaurants and activities.

Relaxing Home Away From Home was the perfect condo for our stay. The views were beautiful & everything we needed was easily accessible within the condo. Marti was a great hostess & responded quickly to any questions we had. Definitely would stay here again & highly recommend to others.

A little bit of everything
Overall we enjoyed our week stay. Nothing fancy with a great location. Beach, restaurant, views, excellent snorkeling, and clean. Marty was a good communicator and gave us a nice list of suggestions for things to do and places to go. Some cosmetic improvements needed, along with water pressure in the showers (we found the hall shower was best)., the wifi/cable was very slow. We would definitely go back!

Great location and spot - hope for no sargassum
Would give 3.5/5 if possible but rounded up. The condo is very nice and in a great location. Pool is clean. Unfortunately the property was inundated with sargassum during our entire stay, and this put a serious damper on our enjoyment of the property. We could not use the beach at all for snorkeling or swimming as it was filled with multiple feet of sargassum and property management only began to clean it up as we were leaving. The entire property smelled very bad due to the sargassum, including the pool area. Returning for the day, as you pulled to the gate you could definitely "smell that you were home." I understand this is out of the owner's control, but had we known it was a possibility we might have reconsidered staying here, as not all the beaches we visited had the sargassum issue. If it wasn't for this issue, the place would have been perfect! I think we just came at the wrong time.
