About this property

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!

Great Space

We stayed with six adults in this space. The apartment is in a good location within a few minutes drive of Christenstead. This was our first visit to St. Croix and we had fun exploring the beaches and restaurants. The property suited our party well and we enjoyed staying here. If we came back we would stay again if we needed a lot of space. We especially enjoyed the balcony in the morning and evenings with the whole crew. Lovely to have drinks and plan your day or chat about dinner plans. .

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.

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!

About the host

Hosted by Marti

Host profile image
We came to St. Croix on vacation and bought immediately.

Why they chose this property

After looking at all of the many condo properties, Mill Harbour had it all. The proximity to the sand beach, the pool, the bar/restaurant. We love it. But we also needed to pay for the opportunity to be here once or twice a year. Thus the vacation rental was born.

What makes this property unique

We have tried to update and upgrade over the years. It is to our tastes with the assumption that it is neutral enough for everyone.
