About this property

Moko Jumbie House - "Guesthouse" - Cozy 1-Bedroom

Immerse yourself in the rich history of St. Croix by staying in a beautiful unit located just one block away from the vibrant downtown/boardwalk area. This private, cozy 1-bedroom/1-bathroom unit is nestled in the up-and-coming Hospital Street area, surrounded by the charm of the early 19th century. The Moko Jumbie House, formerly the Danish Armory, offers a unique glimpse into the island's past. As you step outside, you'll be greeted by "The Guardians," a captivating bronze artwork by sculptor Ward Tomlinson Elicker, which adds a touch of artistry to your doorstep.

This historic property is over 200 years old and has been restored with much love and care as a 4-unit building. The added interest is in the placement on the stepped site and the double curved grand stairway leading to a masonry bay centered against the front gallery. The original yellow Danish bricks throughout the exterior have been preserved and allocated with great attention to detail, providing a truly unique experience. The floors are original old pine, restored thanks to many months of work preserving their impressive longevity.

Upon walking in, you are greeted by high ceilings, updated furniture, and a place to put your things. The bathroom, with its floor-to-ceiling tile, is completely renovated, ensuring a comfortable and modern stay. This unit also includes a split A/C unit in the main room to ensure your comfort during your vacation.

All space inside your unit is private. The outside grounds are open to the public from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on weekdays. The shared laundry room downstairs is open to guests from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on weekdays; additional times may be available upon request.

Please note that although we have made every effort to make the building user-friendly, due to its status as a preserved historic building, it does not have wheelchair access.

Please note that we currently do not have backup power available. However, we are actively working on installing it.

We want to remind you that our team is dedicated to assisting in every way possible. Please contact us via the messaging platform with any questions or concerns.

We aim to ensure that your experience with us is exceptional, and we are committed to making that happen.

As our establishment is on an island, we kindly ask our guests to be mindful of their water and electricity usage. By using these resources responsibly, you will assist us in effectively managing our utility costs and contributing to sustainable practices. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

What to pack:

We've got you covered with our selection of hygiene essentials, including shampoo, conditioner, and body wash!

Don't forget to pack your sunblock to protect your skin from the sun's rays, sunglasses to shield your eyes, beach towels for lounging, portable speakers for some music, and mosquito repellent to keep those pesky bugs at bay.

All of the space is guest space. There are no shared or restricted areas aside from the laundry room.

Let's strive to create a peaceful environment by refraining from hosting parties, events, or gatherings in the condo. Let's show consideration for our neighbors. ⚘

Our go-to rental!

This is our second stay at this guesthouse, and it’s officially our go-to rental! It had everything we needed and was cozy and comfortable. The location is perfect—just a short walk to The Boardwalk filled with restaurants, coffee shops, bars, shoppes, and the beach. Highly recommend!

The Moko Jumbie Guesthouse was the perfect place for my husband and I to stay! The suite is updated and beautifully appointed with everything you will need. We took advantage of the short walk to downtown every day of our stay.

Nice place and walking distance to everything

It is just as shown in the pics. There is easy parking right next to the building. The bed was perfectly comfortable and the bathroom is new, modern and clean. It is all we needed for a short stay in Christensted. We walked to shopping and for coffee and breakfast just a couple blocks up. Also, it is very near the historic fort.
