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.

Good location, easy access to close swimming pool and Ocean a few steps away. Restaurant close for meals.

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 location near Christiansted-8 minutes from restaurants. Great grilling patio, view of ocean, pool, and restaurant/bar all within gated community.

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.

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!!!

Loved it.

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!

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. Thank you for allowing us to stay & most of all, just relax in your home!!

Enjoyed view. Parking was cumbersome due to construction. We would book again

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!

Four of us stayed two weeks here. Plenty of room, everything was just as described. We had the pleasure of meeting the owners while we were there and they were very nice and helpful with suggestions on places to eat and where to snorkel. Nice restaurant on site. Easy check-in. We'll be back!!

I rent condos in this complex regularly and they never let us down. There's a security gate and the restaurant/bar and swimming pool are open again.

Didn't enjoy the nasty smell of the seaweed building up
4.7
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.

Spent a week exploring the island and diving with my 2 college age daughters. Condo was perfect for us. We enjoyed snorkeling on the beach in front of the condo. Saw a large ray and lots of fish. Ate at the restaurant on site one evening. Condo kitchen was well furnished to make meals.

Lovely complex; great amenities! The bar/restaurant is open!
We had a wonderful stay and Marti's home is great. We absolutely loved the pool and the adjoining bar/restaurant, which makes it really more like you are at a resort than a condo complex. Downtown Christianstead (and the bustling boardwalk) is only a few minutes away. Things are hopping again and everyone very conscientiously wears masks/distances across the island. Highly recommend Mill Harbour!

Great spot for a family getaway!
My family (daughters, age 4 and newborn, husband, and our mothers) and I had a wonderful stay! The condo had plenty of space for us, we were very comfortable. My husband connected to wifi and worked remotely in the mornings, while we enjoyed the pool. The location is perfect and close to town, beaches, etc. There were even beach items for us to use: cooler, chairs, sand toys. We had a great time and would definitely stay here again!

Christmas in June
This was our family's Christmas present and I must say everyone had a wonderful time! The condo was beautiful and spacious and a quick jump in the car to any location. The six of us adults did have enough room!!! Beautiful view from the balcony as well. Thanks, Marti. Definately will recommend your property.

Presence instead of Presents
With our children now being young adults, we decided that our Christmas gift to them would be to take them on a family vacation on our favorite island and enjoy some quality time.
The condo was very accommodating for the 7 of us. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own apace. The 3 full bathrooms were very helpful! After a long, full day at the beach, the cold air from the AC in the evenings was very refreshing! The beach that was just a few short steps away was so relaxing and beautiful...and the snorkeling was fabulous!
Each person we met on the property was most helpful. Ms. Carroll in the office was very kind. She took great care of us and gave us great recommendations on the little questions we had.
9 days went by all too quickly! Thank you for sharing your little piece of paradise with us! We can’t wait until we can come back and stay longer.

Condo in Mill Harbor on Condo row.
Enjoyed our stay very much! The view exceeded our expectations. The unit was comfortable and equipped. Office staff was very friendly and helpful. Enjoyed the restaurant on the premises, and loved the staff there. The surges during the time of our visit made the snorkeling on the beach by the property, less than optimum, but we had great time off the Frederiksted pier. Really a nice visit in a comfortable property.

Lovely condo
There was a little snafu with our check it, but it was my fault. Remember to read and save the emails with check-in instructions. The condo was spacious and I love that there are three full bathrooms and two beds each in two of the rooms. Easy access to down town Christiansted. I was home for my 40th class reunion. You can't beat the price given the condo sleeps 8, which is hard to find. Marti was hospitable even when I called her 1:30 am to let her know the security gate panel was broken and my friends and I (4 women) were stuck outside the gate. We had to park at the condo next door and walk around in the dark by the beach to get inside (scary). The facility was accommodating by posting a 24 hr guard until the panel could be fixed.
I would recommend this condo. It was clean and had a lot of space. It did smell a bit when we walked in, but I guess it was from being closed up with no air circulating.
I suggest if you are flying in, BRING YOUR OWN FOOD!!! Stack up on bacon, burgers, salad items, snacks, or whatever you eat. Food is EXPENSIVE in the grocery stores.
Thanks Marti
