About this property
Sapphire Beach, Top-Floor, 2-Story, Beachfront. Million-dollar View of St John
Our Villla is located at Sapphire Beach Resort and Marina, which is on the East end of St. Thomas, and the Resort has one of the best beaches on St. Thomas. Our Villa is an upgraded Villa on the top two floors of the building, is two-stories, has two-lanais, has a million dollar view 30 feet from the water front looking at St. Johns, British Tortola, Jost Van Dyke, and Grass Cay. Your stay in our Caribbean Villa will truly capture the island spirit, trade winds, and the beauty of the Caribbean. Our Villa has been personally decorated in a casual Caribbean-décor, and a list of the many features of our Villa and its location are noted below.
- In 2026, generators have been installed for each building at Sapphire Beach Resort and Marina. These generators provide full power to each condo during any power outage from the WAPA power company. Each generator turns on after several seconds following sensing a power outage from WAPA. -Upgraded Two-Story Top-Floor Villa with two lanais. -One of the two premier beaches on St. Thomas. -Premier building on Sapphire Beach. -Premier view of St. Johns, British Tortola, Jost Van Dyke, Grass Cay, sailboats, charter boats, ferries, jet skis, parasailing, cruise ships, and more. Literally, a $million dollar view. -30 feet from the Caribbean water. -Close to our gorgeous private pool with unparalleled view of St. Johns and British Virgin Islands. -Upgraded décor in Caribbean ambience with multiple Caribbean decorations, pictures including art work from local well-known artist, Jonna White. -Cathedral wood ceiling on second floor. Excellent privacy yet open air to bring in the Caribbean trade winds, which you will greatly appreciate (However, AC with separate controls on both levels.) -With the trade winds, typically one can sleep with the AC turned off, sliding glass doors open with fans on, windows in second floor bath open. -In the month of January, we have slept many nights in a row with no AC on, doors open, no bugs, wonderful Caribbean trade winds, and the sound of the waves, of course, we cannot guarantee all of this, but we are optimistic that if you choose to have your doors open, you should be able to enjoy the trade winds, no bugs, and the sound of waves for many nights. -Close (less than 1 mile) to Red Hook for ferries to St. John, numerous restaurants, shopping, chartering, and boating. -A Million dollar view from the main floor lanai and the second floor bedroom lanai that even the Ritz Carlton cannot compete with. -Best privacy because beach-walkers and sight-see-ers cannot look into you Villa. -All new sliding glass doors on both levels. (That is important, and be gentle).

Perfect location! The view is incredible, you can hear and see the waves right from the master bedroom. You have the needed kitchen tools to cook and plenty of comfortable space for the 2 of us. It is close proximity to red hook to take the ferry. Taxi service is easily accessible. Sapphire beach is clean, water feels amazing, and you have the option of doing various water activities if you’d like. Overall, it was an amazing stay!
Really enjoyed our stay. Nice to have a kitchen to cook our own meals. Loved sitting outside and just enjoying the million dollar view, and it truly is breathtaking. It was very clean and well taken care of. The only situation we had was the bathroom sink upstairs didn't drain well. But not really a big issue. The place was wonderful and the host was so informative. Very thorough with many helpful details. Highly recommend.
Our host was friendly and available. The condo is very well kept. Amazing water views from upstairs and downstairs balconies. Perfect location offering restaurant options and bars etc. located next to Red hook for ferry to St John . On site cabs.
We had a great stay at Sapphire Beach. The condo was close proximity to Red Hook and our favorite beach on the island, Lyndquist Beach. Dr. Van was an excellent host and supplied us a lot of information about the island before our stay. We had a slight hiccup at check-in with the cleaning staff, but Doug worked diligently to get it corrected. What makes an excellent host is how they communicate and help resolve any problems. The condo was spacious and provided an excellent view of the water and St. John. It was perfect for our family of four. Would love if there were beach chairs in the condo you could take when exploring other beaches. But they did supply some beach toys, a small cooler and pool noodles. Overall we have had a great time at Sapphire Beach and would love to return. Thank you!
Views really million dollar views! Had chairs placed out for us every day, super easy process. Owners easy to get in contact with and respond quickly. Would definitely stay here again.
Couldn't be happier with the accommodations; the views from the lanais are spectacular and the villa exactly as described. Also, restaurants and bars are minutes away. If I vacation again in STT, I'll definitely stay here again.
Property was exactly as described. Good communication from host who provided an informative booklet which covered everything pertaining to the rental. Very safe resort with good restaurants, nice pool and an outstanding setting with a great view.
A wonderful place to stay overall. Great information provided from Van the host. The kids loved the beach and so did the adults. The property has undergone extensive upgrades since we were last there with lots of restaurant choices .and overall look of being cared for. We’ll definitely stay there again next time we visit st Thinas
The view was amazing! The location was perfect and conveniently located to everything we needed during our stay. The ease of accessing the property, being steps away from the beach, ease of getting beach towels and chairs, and pool access made the trip very relaxing. Would highly recommend!
My family loved our stay here. The villa was clean, had everything we needed, perfect location and amazing views. Communication with the owner was great, he provided a wonderful travel packet that was so informational. We will definitely be back.
This was our first time to St. Thomas and we had the best time. The condo was lovely and the location wonderful. The view was spectacular. The owner was very helpful and had a ton of great recommendations.
We flew in for a wedding and had a great time! Beautiful views and walkable to the Beach Bar and Sudi’s restaurant.
Check in and check out was so simple and we had great communication with the owner. Any questions we had he responded right away to make our stay even better.
Villa was great for our family of 5. Short walk to the beach. Right next to the marina for our boat excursion. Short distance to either restaurant and both were great. We had a great time and would certainly visit again.
This property was absolutely amazing. It was very clean, comfortable, had everything we needed, and had the most beautiful view. The host was easy to reach and provided very helpful information, which made traveling very smooth. We hope to be back soon!

I have been a physician for 47 years, and I am presently the Director, Nuclear Medicine Research at the MedStar Research Institute and MedStar Washington Hospital Center, and Professor of Medicine at Georgetown University Hospital Center. I have been active in patient care, education, and research of thyroid cancer publishing over several hundred abstracts, articles, and chapters and have authored, edited, and published 10 books. I presently live on the Magothy River of the Chesapeake Bay in Pasadena, Maryland and vacation in Sapphire Beach, St. Thomas.
Why they chose this property
How did we chose our vacation Villa in this location? My wife and I have traveled throughout the Caribbean to many of the islands for 30+ yrs, and while traveling, we have been looking for the perfect location for our vacation villa. This was the island. This was the resort. This was the beach,. This was the Villa, and this was the view. St Thomas is one of the easiest islands to travel to, is a United States territory with US laws, justice, and currency.. It is indeed one of the most beautiful islands with all the beauty of the Caribbean while also having one of the best duty free shopping as well as all the benefits and amenities of home such as K-Mart and Home Depot. It also has medical care in Red Hook and the Roy Schneider Hospital in Charlotte Amalie. It is also one of the friendliest islands, and absolutely the best 'stepping-off' point for visiting many other islands including St. Johns, St. Croix, Tortola, Jost Van Dyke, and many more.. Finally, St. Thomas has wonderful weather and warm water throughout the year, which is far superior to Florida, the latter frequently having colder days in winter and very sultry hot days in summer. I know; I was raised in Florida. Sapphire Beach is indeed THE best beach on the island where you can lodge and be only 20 feet away from the Caribbean Sea with great swimming, snorkeling, and views of St. Johns, Tortola, and Jost Van Dyke. In regard to our Villa, we selected E Building because of the most magnificent views, the wonderful trade winds, and the privacy. It cannot be beaten any where--including the Ritz. And if you compare rates thaey are not just a little lower than the Ritz, Marriott, & others, it is typically a lot lower. Finally, Sapphire is also a very friendly resort. We now have many friends here, and there are not just owners but also guests who come back year after year at the same time. It is wonderful. This has truly been an unexpected benefit.
What makes this property unique
Some of the unique benefits we enjoy at Sapphire Beach include: - Being just 30ft from the water. We don't have to walk far to the sandy beach and water - We have some of the best snorkeling in St. Thomas and St. Johns right at Sapphire (with the best snorkeling in front of our building.) - The Marina is just a few steps away from our villa if we want to go on snorkeling/diving excursions to the BVI's or St Johns - The waterfront pool is just steps away where we can swim and relax on the deck sunning and enjoying the tropical breezes. It has been the cover on many magazines. - The Condominium Associates supplies complimentary lounge chairs to our guests without charge. One of our staff will put out and take in each day for you. -Parking is complimentary -WIFI is complimentary -Dive shop on property at Beach Bar (but this can change from year to year) - The property is secured by our contracted condominium Security Staff members 24-7.
