About this property

Caribbean Gem Hilltop Condo with Harbor and Island Views, Walk to Town

Harborview is a 2 bedroom/2bathroom condo at battery hill, an intimate nine unit condominium complex nestled at the top of the hill overlooking Cruz Bay in town. This is a Caribbean gem, with an open living plan, fully equipped kitchen, and furnished in lovely, bright island decor, with a queen sized master bedroom and a queen size bed in the expensive loft bedroom.

Harbor View is located on the top floor of the two unit building, with its own separate entrance. The mahogany doors open to the fabulous 24 foot high tongue and groove, beamed ceilings. The jalousie windows and six Hunter fans circulate the tropical breezes and Trade Winds (air conditioning is available for the rare nights it is needed). The inviting great room is tastefully appointed with a comfortable couch, chairs and a flat screen television with cable TV. Off of the great room is a quaint covered balcony to take in the majestic views while basking in the cooling trade wind breezes.

There is a community gas BBQ grill available which is located near the pool deck. The community pool is located just steps from the front door. It features numerous lounge chairs available for sunbathing and other lounge chairs are located under a covered and shaded area, ideal for reading or lounging. Several tables and chairs complement the outer pool deck area. Beach chairs, cooler and beach towels are available to take on your visits to our many world class beaches.

Another great stay at Harbor View!

This was our second time staying in this condo and it was just as good as the first. Both Eileen and Tammy are a delight to work with, so hospitable and accommodating! Location is spectacular, walk to all! Always had a parking spot for our jeep rental. Lots of beach gear provided, chairs, cooler, bags, umbrellas, rain coat and more. We needed and used all! Makes it so convenient to not have to pack or rent those things. Unit is clean and well stocked with anything you would need for cooking! Will stay again and again! Can't wait for our next visit!

Piece of paradise!

We had the best time here! Four adults (2 couples), and it was the perfect size and location. We had a vehicle, but could have done without, as it’s within walking distance to town. The house was well stocked with everything we needed for the perfect week in St John. The balcony was great for morning coffee or an afternoon nap. The pool and lounge area were just the right size for relaxing after a day at the beach. I honestly can’t say enough wonderful things about this property! Thank you to the owners for sharing it with us!!! I would come back and stay in this exact place.

Great property, convenient location

Location of property is super convenient for activities and meals, property was very nice, kitchen well appointed. Clarifying observation, washer and dryer available and no charge but we’re not in the unit. Not a huge deal, though. Spiral stairs to loft were indeed a little challenging

Perfect condo and location

We had a great week at Harbor View! This is one of the best-provisioned rentals we’ve ever had, especially the kitchen. It was super helpful to have chairs and even a backpack yeti available. The room setup worked well for us, with the teenaged daughters up the spiral stairs. We particularly loved the location and had never stayed right in Cruz Bay before- definitely a very steep climb on the return trip, but worked for us every night and appreciated not having to take taxis to dinner.

Harbor View - Great Visit!

We've stayed at Harbor View at Battery Hill multiple times and never been disappointed. Our visits are up to 3 weeks now and the host has always been great! The site manager keeps you informed and responds quickly also. The place has everything you need for comfort inside and for trips to the beaches, including coolers, chairs, and towels. Harbor View is out go to place on St John as we love the view of Cruz Bay and have easy access to town, shopping, and groceries. We will definitely stay here again! Mark & Kim J
