Some of our favorite restaurants are just around the corner, including Too Chez, Savant and Hamilton’s. The property sits on a corner, leaving plenty of free street parking for our guests that choose to rent a car. For those guest that do not have their own form of transportation, it's just a 3-minute walk down to the taxi stand, at the corner of King St and Church St. OR we always recommend riding with Rolly's Transportation Services OR VI Ubah! Guests are provided with ample towels and bedding for their stay. To keep cleaning costs low, we encourage guests to wash the items provided if they would like fresh ones throughout their reservation. There is currently some construction around the property on Queen Street, making the roads somewhat bumpy, and causing confusion with parking. We conduct monthly pest control treatments to help ensure pests aren't present in our units. These treatments are tentatively scheduled for the first Friday of each month between 4 and 5pm. A representative of ours accompanies the technician, so guests do not have to be present during a scheduled treatment. We send a reminder ahead of each treatment to guests booked. \- Not suitable for events or parties \- Quiet hours: 10pm-8am \- Please help us conserve energy: No open windows or doors while AC is on \- Pets welcome for $50/pet \- Please be respectful of other guests/tenants :) \- No smoking inside unit ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the apartment: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Hiking/biking trails nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,012 square feet ## Similar properties ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/104000000/103640000/103635000/103634914/6e43fa5d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Perfect Beach Front Condo with Pool Christiansted Historic District - Pool - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 9.0 Wonderful 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-13&endDate=2025-10-14&selected=103634914&PinnedHotelID=103634914&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/101000000/100900000/100896500/100896443/fdf821a7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Danish Nydam - A Sailor’s Mooring Christiansted Historic District - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 6.0 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-13&endDate=2025-10-14&selected=100896443&PinnedHotelID=100896443&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/24000000/23600000/23591700/23591628/w1919h1280x0y0-4fcccbd7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Gorgeous Condo With Heavenly Harbor And Ocean Views, And Close To Everything!

May 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Within walking distance to the boardwalk The location was wonderful and close to the boardwalk but you would need a car to go see some of the tourist’s attractions. The coffee pot that was provided in the room was missing the actual pot itself (which I never said anything to staff) it wasn’t a huge deal to us, we just walked to near by coffee shops each morning. The property was clean and I would recommend to others. ##### Lenzy L. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### De G. Jan 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, listing accuracy #### Unbearable Noise I will start by saying that the unit is exactly as described in the listing pics. It was very cozy. HOWEVER, the unit next to ours had a dog that barked all morning and evening (we werent in the until all day - but I will assume it barked at those times as well). I spoke with the onsite property manager (who confirmed they were aware of the issue but could not reach the tenant) and eventually spoke with the management company to inform them I could no longer deal with the constant barking. Additionally, as far as noise, be prepared for seversl wake up calls from the local roosters. I will not patronize the location or management company in the future. ##### De G.
