About this apartment rental

Welcome to the Moko Jumbie Historic Suite—a cozy slice of St. Croix’s history just one block from the bustling boardwalk! Nestled on the lower floor of this beautifully restored 200-year-old gem, this 1-bedroom, 1-bath unit is perfect for a relaxing escape. But if you're a light sleeper, you might prefer one of the quieter upstairs units, as there is another unit above this suite.

Stepping into the Moko Jumbie house, formerly the Danish Armory, you'll be surrounded by the charm of early 19th-century Christiansted. From the grand double-curved stairway to the meticulously preserved original yellow Danish bricks and pine floors, every detail reflects the love and care poured into its restoration. And right outside your door, 'The Guardians,' a stunning bronze sculpture by Ward Tomlinson Elicker, adds a touch of artistic magic to your stay.

Inside, the Moko Jumbie House - Historic Suite, it welcomes you with a charming kitchenette showcasing historic Danish brickwork from countertop to ceiling, framing the beautiful large windows. The bathroom is a retreat in itself, featuring floor-to-ceiling Carrara marble, a sleek glass shower, and a serene view of private greenery—perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. With a split A/C unit to keep you cool and all your essentials covered, this suite blends historic charm with modern comforts. Come immerse yourself in a unique piece of St. Croix's past!

We want to share that due to the historic preservation design of our building, wheelchair access is not currently available. We truly value accessibility for all our guests and are actively working on improvements to better serve everyone. Additionally, please note that our units do not have backup power at the moment, but we are diligently exploring solutions to provide uninterrupted power supply in the future.

We sincerely appreciate your understanding as we strive to enhance our facilities for all our guests. Thank you for choosing to stay with us, and please let us know if there’s anything else we can assist you with!

Welcome to our tropical paradise! We're thrilled to have you here and hope you soak up every sun-soaked moment. Just a heads-up: island life means sharing our gorgeous surroundings with some local wildlife—including the occasional bug that likes to drop by uninvited.

Despite our best efforts to keep these sneaky critters out, they sometimes sneak in. To keep their visits to a minimum, we recommend keeping doors and windows closed as much as possible. Trust us, they won’t RSVP!

For your convenience, you can find parking outside the Main Gate, right next to the property. Please keep in mind that we’re not liable for any theft, damage, or loss of items left in your vehicle. So, lock up, relax, and enjoy the island vibes with peace of mind!

Enjoy your stay, and if you need anything, we're just a message away!

Beautiful renovation, clean, safe and great location. If you choose to stay in the historic room please note this is down stairs and has a tendency to be loud sometimes from upstairs.

The address on the listing is incorrect and the only way we were able to locate the property was with the help of a US Postal driver. An email was sent with the correct address but I had trouble with connectivity with my phone/accessing emails and only had the address from the listing. I called VRBO to try and contact Marianne for directions but had no luck. There was a thin coverlet on the bed but no blankets available. If you’re new to Christiansted you should know that chickens and roosters roam the town freely. We were awakened bright and early the next morning by a rooster. After a long day of travel the previous day I was really looking forward to getting some sleep. Fortunately we were only there for one night.

What an amazing stay! My wife definitely gets weary when we stay new places and This was our first time to St Croix. we booked this stay with as much research we could find which was little to none, so needless to say, it was booked on a prayer! The price was great and the photos looked very nice! We were pleasantly surprised with the place when we arrived! It is a beautiful property with great history! Our little unit was very updated and quaint! We loved the gated property and felt very safe! Super easy walking distance to great Coffee Shops, Restaurants, Shopping, Historic Sites and the Boardwalk! The area around this place is a bit dilapidated and dirty, but we never once felt unsafe and made the walks daily! Tons of age and history in this area, so we didn’t mind and just soaked it in! I highly recommend and will definitely book here again! Great location and great place to stay!

My wife and I stayed here, and it is just as good as advertised. The property is beautiful, and is within walking distance of some great restaurants, and the boardwalk in Christiansted. Marianne is so nice and easy to reach (via VRBO, email, etc.) and helped provide easy instructions for checking in and finding the location. Clean, cozy, and the A/C works great!

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at one of the beautifully renovated spaces in the Moko Jumbie House. The bright and airy unit features all the amenities I needed to feel right at home, and it is conveniently located within walking distance to downtown restaurants and attractions. There's plenty of on site parking right by the gated entrance, and the host Marianne is wonderful. I will definitely stay here again.
