About this property

Hilltop Haven- great views, great location!

> Gorgeous views of historic Christiansted, the ocean, and lush tropical forest
> Spacious rooms with comfortable beds and couches
> Perfect mid-island location for easy access to all your St. Croix adventures

At 1700 square feet, this breezy two-bedroom two-and-a-half-bath condo is in the ideal spot for guests who want to experience all of what the wonderful island of St. Croix has to offer!

Over a morning cup of coffee, you can gaze over Christiansted's historic 18th-century architecture, nestled between the ocean and the hillside. Whether you choose to sway in the hammock on the master bedroom's patio or step out onto the main-floor balcony, you will love getting to watch the seaplanes as they take off and land, listen as the falcons cry overhead, and feel the first rays of sunlight as they sweep down into the valley below!

> Main Bedroom - King Bed, TV, Private Bath, Patio, AC
> Secondary Bedroom- Queen Bed, Projector, Private Bath, AC
> Living Room- Modular Lovesac Couch, Pull-Out Couch

While the kitchen is stocked with all the cooking essentials you might ever need, (and grocery stores like Plaza Extra East and Cost-U-Less are super close), it's difficult to pass up the opportunity to grab food in town. A short six-minute drive takes you directly to downtown Christiansted, where dozens of restaurants, bars, and souvenir shops line a charming boardwalk overlooking the glittering Atlantic Ocean.

(Tip: Be sure not to miss Fort Christiansvaern- this free, historic fortress-turned museum has real cannons and other fascinating artifacts!)

Back at Hilltop Haven, you can grab a towel and a floatie and dive into the pool for a bit of sun, shade, and swimming! Only steps from the front door, it's the perfect spot for a mid-day moment of relaxation.

If you're looking for a beachier afternoon, a seven-minute drive south takes you to one of the best beaches on the island- Hay Penny Beach. Slightly off the radar and out of the way from resorts, hotels, and cruise ships, this romantic beach is never crowded and offers soft sand, calm waters, and absolutely breathtaking views of the Caribbean Sea. It's St. Croix's best-kept secret!

(In addition to floaties and beach towels, we also have four brand-new beach chairs you can take with you!)

To the west, you can easily hop over to Leatherback Brewing Company, where you can sip some excellent island-made beers while kids play cornhole in the sunshine. And just north of Leatherback, you can fly over the rainforest at Carambola Zip Line!

With a smart TV, old-school-cool Nintendo consoles, and board games galore, an early night back at Hilltop Haven won't ever be a disappointment. You have to see the sparkling lights of Christiansted harbor as the stars come out- it's incredible!

But if you're craving more adventure, the most eastern point of the United States, Point Udall, is totally doable in time for dinner, (or in time for a fabulously fun night at the Divi Carina Bay Casino).

Other Hiltop Haven highlights:

> Safe, gated community
> Private two-story atrium with indoor garden
> Yoga mats and free weights
> Designated parking spot

NOTE: Our property manager will meet you at your convenience (either at the airport or at the unit) to welcome you and help you get settled in!

St. Croix is the largest of the Virgin Islands, with plenty to see, eat, and do! Because Hilltop Haven is almost exactly mid-island, a schedule full of sightseeing and excursions is no problem at all, and you don't have to sacrifice great views in return!

We hope you enjoy your stay, and as always, keep left!

Stayed here for 5 days and it was a great place. The property was well Maintained saw maintenance men regularly, sweeping and cleaning throughout my stay. The location was untouchable close to everything and safety was never a concern. The unit is well spaced out and the view was amazing.

Love!Love!Love!
Loved this condo, the complex and the people! From before arriving where we were contacted by the property manager, Rob (who loves the island and truly wants everyone to have a great experience). Upon arriving we were greeted by Rob, who escorted us back to the complex, so the transition from airport to condo was effortless! Condo was great! Plenty of room to spread out. Everything you would need to stay one day or one month! Included were spices and some main condiments, soaps and shampoos, towels for the beach and Beach Chairs! The view from this condo was wonderful upstairs and downstairs. Speaking of the view, the property is nice just to stroll around in the mornings before heading out. This unit has a gas range in the kitchen, which I loved and and a gas grill on the deck, which I loved! Perfect if you want to stay in and cook. The bed was comfortable in the master. Slept comfortably every night. This condo is centrally located and with a short 5-10 minute drive you can be at the beach or in downtown Christiansted. We met several of the friendly neighbors at the well maintained complex, and the complex itself is very manicured and safe. The only thing that I would mention as something that could be improved is the shower head in the master bedroom. Since this is a two bath unit I tried the shower in the second bathroom and preferred it. Just me. Wonderful, clean, bright, homey place to stay! We will be back!

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
After graduating from the University of Texas at Austin in 2017, Carson and I lived and worked in Dallas until we decided to move to the beautiful island of St. Croix in March of 2021.

And it's been the best decision we've ever made.

Carson works from home as a software engineer, and I am a dance teacher, trivia host, and writer. While the pandemic put a pause on our wedding and forced us to reconsider our career plans, it also brought us the opportunity of a lifetime- to do something crazy and move to an island.

We are so, so excited to share our home with you!

Why they chose this property

Carson's parents have owned a condo on St. Croix for almost ten years, and while we were between jobs and leases, they gave us the awesome opportunity to stay at their place for a few months during 2020.

We very quickly fell head-over-heels in love with the island, its friendly people, and its fascinating history. (Be careful- it might happen to you, too!)

After deciding over dinner to "just do it", we ended up looking at a number of gorgeous properties on the island- stunning beachfront condos, cozy houses in the rainforest, and charming 18th-century gems. But when we toured Questa Verde, we were floored.

We hadn't seen a view like that yet. In one sweeping gaze, we could see the turquoise sandbars out at sea, the very streets of Christiansted that Alexander Hamilton walked as a boy, and the diverse greens of the tropical hillside. With a unique indoor atrium, gigantic master bedroom, and romantic balcony arches, we were sold. For the first time, we actually felt like this place could be our home.

While our parents make fun of us and say we're doing everything out of order (a vacation home before the wedding?), we couldn't be happier with our choices.

We hope you have the best time visiting St. Croix, and we can't wait to hear about all your adventures!
