It’s another reason our resort is amazing as we have so much right on site!

Beautiful spot!

The spot was beautiful and David was fantastic. The marina location was perfect and after a day in the sun, sitting on the deck in the shade with a great breeze was just what we needed. If you think you forgot something, you didn't. I can almost guarantee David has what you need waiting for you there!

Perfect Birthday Getaway!

Great location with a beautiful view! Property had everything we needed. Coffee shop had great breakfast sandwiches, beach bar to enjoy drinks and burger while swimming, Sudi's restaurant right up the hill for dinner, beach was perfect for snorkeling, and the pool was awesome to relax in the evenings. Also loved that the marina was right there to take us on excursions. The balcony was private with a beautiful view, bed was super comfy, and I can't say enough about David! He was super responsive and provided so many tips and recommendations for dinner, etc. Loved how close we were to Red Hook and all of the great restaurants in that area. Overall it was a great trip and we would certainly stay here again!

We had food and drink options for any type… from a beachside bar that served high quality pub food to an excellent pizza place to upscale dining overlooking the beach. We basically didn’t need to leave the property! This condo had every possible utensil or small electronic or beach item we could have ever needed! Communication was perfect as well. We felt over-prepared… every question we could have thought of was pre-answered. If we are fortunate enough to make it down again, this would easily be our first and only choice.

Best property and Host on the island!

The condo was totally tastefully remodeled situated on a quiet corner unit of the lovely Sapphire Resort and Marina. The host David went above and beyond with quick responses on where to eat or ideas of where to go. I have never had a host take such great care to detail of the property and it’s guests like David. The condo came equipped with everything you needed from beach towels, to coolers, to great snorkel gear. No seagrass on the beach great drinks and a quick breakfast sandwich made with love right on the property. Red Hook was 5 minutes away perfect for a nice dinner our fav was XO blackened shrimp parmesan. 5 star Host and Condo! Thanks again David!

Perfect!

We rented a car and drove all over St Thomas and we didn't find a single place we would've rather stayed. The condo is beautiful and has a fantastic view, just steps from the gorgeous beach, shops, and restaurants. Really convenient location to get to everywhere we needed to go! There was snorkeling gear, beach towels, a cooler, and everything we needed to have a great time on the beach right in the condo. The door lock was a code that was personal to us... so it made it easy to remember (genius.. wish everyone did that). The host, David, was quick to respond to any questions and gave us great tips on what we needed to know. We didn't want to leave!

The location at Sapphire Beach was perfect

I booked this unit very late once an earlier trip was cancelled. I didn't know much about the area. Once I found out it was in Building F, I was concerned. It turned out, we thought this location was hands down the best! Pretty view of the marina and more secluded. The unit itself was good, but we were disappointed in the upkeep of the resort property itself. Lots of trash and the total lack of caring was sad. One more thing we were not prepared for was the surge of cruise clients taking up the beach. Tues-Thursday was terribly crowded. I would suggest, if you stay, plan your excursions away during the middle of the week.

5 Stars – Beautiful Condo, Excellent Host, Great Location!We had a wonderful stay at David’s condo in St. Thomas in August 2025. From the moment we booked, David was incredibly responsive and helpful. He provided detailed information ahead of time and checked in during our stay to make sure everything was going well. The printed, laminated information sheet in the condo was also super helpful for navigating the area and amenities.The condo itself was exactly as pictured—beautiful, clean, and well-stocked. We really appreciated the thoughtful extras like towels, toiletries, beach chairs, floats, and a cooler. It made beach days so easy and enjoyable!The view of the marina from the condo is stunning, especially in the morning and at sunset. Unfortunately, during our stay (which fell in the peak season for sargassum), the seaweed was heavy at times, and the smell made it difficult to enjoy the deck. This wasn’t something within David’s control, but worth noting for future guests considering a summer visit.The condo is part of the Sapphire Beach Resort, and the resort amenities are just a short 3-5 minute walk away. We enjoyed the on-site bar and food options and found the staff—especially the friendly folks at the guard shack—warm and welcoming.We would absolutely stay here again, but next time we’d plan for the winter months when the sargassum isn't an issue. All in all, a fantastic property with a great host in a beautiful location!

This property and the host (David) are truly exceptional. Its beautifully appointed, it has everything you need, and its organized and thoughtfully equipped. We really appreciated the little things that were of high quality, like YETI cups for beach/pool, a good size cooler, excellent cookware, top of the line wine glasses, Apple TV on 2 different flat screens the list goes on. The unit is exactly as the pictures show. Well appointed, tastefully modern, and the furniture is comfortable. The patio is really wonderful overlooking the harbor, and the comfortable outdoor cushions make for a great reading spot. The bathroom with dual sinks and tiled shower are great! Did I mention it is SPOTLESS! Seriously cleaned and organized. Very impressed with the cleanliness.The location is just a short 2-3 min stroll to the beach & pool, and the beach bar is just another 2 min walk. Sapphire beach is really beautiful and Lindquist is just down the street. The ride to Red Hook is only 3 min down the hill.However, the best feature is easily the communication and preparedness of the host David. He took personal interest and time to make sure our vacation was a success. His response time was fast and professional. He has lots of great recommendations for the area and vendors you can trust. We utilized several of his suggestions and it made our trip that much better and seamless. 5 Stars all around on this one. We will be happy to rent this property again!

First, David is one of the best hosts I’ve dealt with. He is passionate about his properties and gives detailed information about the area, so no need to research. The condo was neat and clean. Looks just like the photos. Beautiful location. A true paradise experience. The bed was comfy and the sheets were fresh smelling. We stayed for a weekend, because of a destination wedding. It was nice that we were in all within walking distance to each other. David also has a larger condo, and from the photos, it’s just as nicely updated.

Lovely island, treacherous mountain roads

The resort and our owner’s apartment was a genuine pleasure spot. The views are fabulous and we thoroughly enjoyed our vacation. The customer service at the resort restaurants was lacking so we chose to dine elsewhere. Perhaps because the cost of living is so high, I imagine many workers aren’t happy with their wages We felt the restaurant staffs were overwhelmed, over worked and probably underpaid. Nonetheless, the accommodations were a very good value outside of the cost of food at both grocery stores and restaurants. We had a wonderful time.

The condo unit itself was very nicely decorated, clean, and well equipped. However, the resort itself was very disappointing. Everything seemed to be in a state of disrepair, with poor maintenance and upkeep. Much of the property is in dire need of attention and repairs. The landscaping was not manicured like it should be in a resort. There were unsightly building materials everywhere. The pool is perfectly situated beside the ocean but is not well kept. The stone around it looks dirty, landscaping is in poor shape, and the pool bar was never open and appeared to have been vandalized. Also, the odor from the seaweed(sargassum) was at times unbearable but best case was tolerable. The parking lot is not even paved - it’s all gravel with big potholes everywhere. This stay was not worth half of what we paid for it.

AMAZING! We just returned from our stay in St Thomas and had the best time and loved this unit. First - the unit itself is beautiful and well decorated. It was also VERY clean which is super important to me. We loved being in this building and the corner unit and watching all the activity in the marina. Also, just a very quick walk to the amazing beach which we went to every day. We spent a majority of our time on the balcony when we were not on the beach.Secondly, David was a great host and supplied as much information as anyone could ask for. Every single time I asked any question, his response was quick and helpful. I have had many great VRBO experiences, but this was the best.Highly recommend a stay here!

About the host

Hosted by David Bonds

Host profile image
We currently live in Florida, having just returned from Minnesota after 3 years in the cold!!!

We've traveled to over 65 countries in North America, South America, Central America, the Caribbean, Europe, Asia, Scandinavia, Russia and more! We've spent time in some of the most beautiful places on earth, which includes traveling many times to St Thomas! In 2020 we decided it was time to own a little piece of paradise here for ourselves, so we purchased and remodeled our new space that we now call "Sapphire Dream!" It was our escape from the cold Minnesota winters, but now we have moved back home to the Florida warmth. So now we are sharing our beach home with wonderful guests from around the world so they can experience all that St. Thomas and the USVI's have to offer.

Why they chose this property

Our resort condo is in the best location for EVERYTHING on St. Thomas! We are on the famous Sapphire Beach and we are a short drive to several other amazing beaches. (You can actually see our condo community on the HGTV Series "Caribbean Life."

The ferry to St. John is less than a half mile away and you can take your car over on teh car ferry or use the walk on ferry and head over to St. John to spend the day beach hoping to some amazing spots! Our favorite is of course, Trunk Bay Beach! But the options are many and each has it's own unique feel! Check them all out and find your personal beach bliss!

Here at Sapphire Beach Resort and Marina we have the Beach Bar and Restaurant with awesome burgers, sandwiches, fries , onion rings and all the drinks you need, without having to drive anywhere! We also have an awesome coffee shop, Beach Buzz, that serves great breakfast sandwiches, smoothies AND our favorite.... Ice Cream!
