Great Spot in Cruz Bay

This property is clean and convenient. It was perfect for my wife and I to explore Cruz Bay and explore the area. It is easily walkable from the ferry dock, shops, and restaurants.

Great location and comfy stay

This location did not disappoint. Absolutely clean, matches the photos, and is so close to so many things in walking distance. Great little view of the water that’s only a few blocks away. Great communication with the host and easy transition to check in and check out. Would highly recommend and definitely will be coming back and staying at this location.

Check-In Policy

Everything was great but the directions for Check-In should be provided to us at least 24 hours before arrival. It would avoid a lot of confusion on site. Thank you

Very stylish and clean!

Very nice stylish place to stay. Loved the interior decorators taste. Convenient location. Would have been even nicer with a pool. I have two real complaints. The bath towels smelled sour and we had to wash them before use.Also the glass balcony is somewhat scary.

Thank you so much for the review and i am so sorry about the towels. So thankful for the washer and dryers inside every unit though! We will double check with the team to make sure they are completely dry before folding them. I hear you on the pool too! When we finish our contruction we will have on on the roof of our addition. But i have to warn you... it will probably have a glass railing too! Haha!! Dont worry the railings are installed by a licensed contractor and meet our building codes here in the USVI. We will replace the stairs with a glass elevator as we move forward as well! You will have to return!!

Awesome

Great location! Absolutely loved sitting on the balcony watching the cars in the morning. So nice to be able to wash your clothes as needed. It’s a work in progress there will eventually be an elevator and more condos as of now there is stairs up to the condos for us middle aged it wasn’t bad but for older or kids it might be a lot. I will definitely stay here again. There is also a store right next to it which was great. Very close to the fairy , taxis and shops / restaurants. There is two ways to walk back one is a large hill if you go around and walk passed the tap and still bar and grill it’s much easier.

Potential but units need to be managed properly

We stayed on island for almost a week. Unit had potential but is very small. Too large of a bed platform that is unnecessary in a small room caused guests to run into bed and stub their toe. A bed frame would be better. No ceiling fans, only 4 drinking glasses for guests to use. Streaming TV does not allow for any US channels, only Middle Eastern/Indian channels. Biggest issue we had was owner was unresponsive. We had plumbing issues for our entire stay. Water was not coming out of bathroom sink in a normal flow, and the shower had no cold water, only scalding hot. Owner stated plumber was coming for four days straight and on follow up, no one ever came. Then stated something else in a text so basically lied to us. Someone finally came the night before we left and only was able to adjust the shower valve, bathroom sink was still broken. Friends who live on island state this gentleman has a very bad reputation in the business community. Couch and bed were comfortable but would not stay here again due to late check in, early check out and no response to owner on that, and especially lack of management to make sure unit is in working condition

Thank you for leaving a review. This unit has an avarage score of 4.7 out of 5 even with your 1 star review. Your review is not 100% accurate. We did reach out to a plumber to come by and check the water. You were probably out visiting your friends when we stopped by. We were unable to repair the bathroom sink and had to go to St. Thomas to get a faucet that would fit the sink. The kitchen sink is located about 10 feet from the bathroom so use of the kitchen sink for cold water for drinking and brushing your teeth would have to work until we could get the faucet replaced. The scalding hot water was due to user error and you only needed to move the temperature handle to the left to add more cold water. We had several text messages and several phone calls during your stay so to say I was not responsive is not accurate. I am the property manager and you never spoke to the owner of the property and for you to write something negative about him that is coming from hearsay for "someone that lives here" says a lot about your character. We refunded you $349 for the incovenience caused by the sink only having hot water in the bathroom. The tv's are samsung smart tvs and are used only with your streaming apps like amazon and netflix. Again this was discussed in a phone call while you were here. I'm sorry you stubbed your toe on the bed but when traveling to a strange place we have to expect some things to be different than they are at home and watch where we are walking and make adjustments. Again I am sorry your stay was not what you expected but we did try and address every issue for you and hope to see you again soon.
