"Ocean was visible from room but through some palm trees...we were not exactly "ocean front". The housekeeping staff came daily which we did not initially realize - were very attentive once we tipped daily. The restaurant and bar staff were generally unfriendly and not very efficient, with the exception of Lydia, the pool waitperson...on her days off, no one served that area. The breakfast buffet is very expensive and food was just OK. There is only 1 restaurant and 1 bar - you need reservations at restaurant or they mostly will not seat you. If you don't have a car, you will need to take taxis to other restaurants as there is nothing within walking distance. And if you do rent a car, the roads are not in good shape and driving is on the left which is confusing for some Americans. There are a very limited number of chairs and umbrellas at the pool and on the beach with "first come, first serve". The rooms and entire facility desperately need renovating; two taxi drivers told us the entire resort is scheduled for tear down and rebuilding but other sources say only renovation is planned. We would not recommend visiting until after the renovations."

"Great place and nice staff. Food was excellent!!!"

"Everything was decent, kind of what I expected for the budget price. They are undergoing a transformation so maybe things will be a bit nicer soon but for the price it was fine. "

"Great views, right on the water. Room was not once cleaned during my 4 day stay and it wasn’t clean when I checked in. Sliding door to balcony didn’t work."

"Very steep hill from oceanfront room (Mermaid beach) to big house where terrace restaurant is. I could not walk up there due to back issues, but staff would pick me up in shuttle van. Beautiful property. More choices for dining would have been good- only one restaurant open for dinner each night."

"Great access to downtown Christiansted!"

"No"

"A million dollar view from the room balcony."

"The room was spacious. The view was great - you could see the sea from the bed. I really liked the location - very walkable and convenient to everything. I also liked the sun deck. But apparently, do NOT pick room 205, or ask to change if you are assigned room 205. When I mentioned the crazy loud bass and music until 2:15 a.m. Sunday morning, the front desk clerk chastised me, saying, "Most guests ask to be away from the bar." Huh?! How would I ever guess that this was a thing. SO - note to future guests of the King Christian - ask NOT to get room 205 if you want to actually sleep and not leave your room in your pjs at 2:20 a.m. to ask them to turn it down"
