Photos and Description of the East End vacation condo rental
1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, 2 people

At Sapphire Beach Resort and Marina the view is absolutely breathtaking, offering a post card view of St John and the British Virgin Islands. Our condo is located about fifteen feet from the waters edge on the second floor. The view makes it look as though you are floating on the Caribbean Sea. You may spend your evenings sitting on the chairs on the balcony and taking in the view, the lights on the other islands twinkling in the distance and the pleasure boats entering and departing the marina. The resort offers two fine beaches; one for swimming and the other in front of our building which is better suited for snorkeling. The fresh water pool is only 150 feet away.

Sapphire Beach Resort and Marina is located at the East End of the Island, we are approximately 12 miles from Cyril E. King Airport (45 minute ride), we are known as the shopping capital of the Caribbean offering Duty Free shopping in Charlotte Amalie 30 minutes away. In the section of the island known as Red Hook, five minutes away from the condo, you can catch the Ferry to St. John, Tortorla, Virgin Gorda and Jost Van Dyke. Attractions offered by the island include Atlantis Submarine, BOB Underwater Adventure three and a half hour aboard 60 foot yacht, diving and snorkeling, Coral World, Divi Carina Bay Casino, Casino in St. Croix, Pistarckle Theater, Theater in Tillett Gardens, Air conditioned theater with more than 100 seats, Skyride to Paradise Point, and V.I. National Park on St. John. For the golfers in the group Mahogany Run, 18 hole golf course.

About The Owner

My husband and I have been married for 39 years now, we have two daughters and 8 grandsons and 3 granddaughters. My husband is retired from the Bridgeport, Ct fire department but owns a construction company which pours concrete for house foundations and additions. I work for eleven different small building companies doing bookkeeping. We have owned at Sapphire Beach for 22 years now and still continue to love it.

The Owner purchased this condo in 1989
Why The Owner chose East End

Went there on a vacation with our children 23 years ago now, they were still in the process of building the condo's. We fell in love with the peacefullness and beauty of the area. When you sit in the condo it looks like your on a cruise ship and your just floating on the water, that's how close you are to the beach. Now our grandchildren love going, in fact they think we can't go without them.

What makes this condo unique

Quiet, peaceful, beauty, most of the year a wonderful breeze. The friendliness of the local people. The activities available jet skiing,fishing, snorkeling and diving. I can still stay in contact with the world with the high speed internet service, so I'm able to continue working.

We loved Marsha's condo! It is very comfortable, clean, cheerful and tastefully decorated. The kitchen is well equiped and we enjoyed cooking some of our meals. The bathroom is spacious and we especially liked the double sink and the large step-in shower with new tiles. The king size bed was very comfortable. We had our morning coffee and an evening drink every day in the high back chairs on the balcony and admired the ocean and beautiful islands. The beach is very quiet but the ocean was still chilly in March on the east side of the island so we swam in the pool.
We did not think that we would feel comfortable driving on the left so we did not rent a car. Sam was very helpful: he picked us up at the airport and took us to the supermarket to buy groceries on the way to our condo.We were within walking distance from the restaurant and bars in Red Hook but the roads are narrow with no shoulder so we hopped on the little open air bus that runs right by Sapphire Beach Resort.
It was a wonderful, peaceful vacation and we would rent Marsha's condo again.

Look no further this is the condo you want to rent! It is, without question, the closest condo you can get to the water anywhere on St thomas!! The condo is all marble tile with first class linens on a super comfortable king size bed. Theres pocket type doors that can be closed to seperate the bedroom from the living room. It was great to keep the sun out in the early morning. The balcony offers an incredible view of St John. Man, I loved sitting on that balcony with an ice cold beer watching the sun dance off the crystal clear water 25 feet away! WOW! The pictures are very accurate- everything is exactly as iit appears in the photos. The snorkeling directly in front of this condo was as good as anywhere else we've snorkeled. Tons of fish just a few feet off shore. This condo is also located next to the marina. It was great to watch the boats come in and out of the marina and imagine what it would be like on one of the yachts that were bigger than my home. Another plus of being by the marina is that is secluded and out of sight of where the cruise people get dropped off. We never saw the cruise ship people unless we walked towards the dive shop. My wife and I estimated that we had the beach in front of the condo totally to ourselves 95% of the time. Perfectl! If you want more action- beach volleyball, yoga,food and drinks served to you on your chair ect you simply walk 150 yards towards the dive shop. But in all honesty its not very crowded even when cruise ships are there. There is a little bar/restaurant on the other side of the marina- great pizza and good burgers. The jalepeno poppers may be the best in the worlld. There is also nightly entertainment there -usually an acoustic guitarist. The town of red hook is less than 1/4 mile away. Contrary to other reviews it is VERY walkable. The first 100 yards or so is rough but then there are pathways that act as side walks. Many people have said that renting a car is a must while on St Thomas we never felt the need for one due to the proximity to Red hook. $4 cab ride is much cheaper than renting a car. In all honesty, I wouldnt have been comfortable driving on the left. Too confusing for me. I was there to relax - not stress about driving. We had absolutely no issues with the condo. Everything was perfect. Cant wait to go back in November!

Owner's Response: Thanks for the great review, we really appreciate it when our guest love our place as much as we do. Even though Red Hook is within walking distance it's not advisable to walk down there in the evening hours. It's best to take a taxi.

We really enjoyed staying at this condo. The view was spectacular and the condo was very clean and had everything we needed for our trip. Marsha was very helpful while we were coordinating our trip and learning about St. Thomas. The Sapphire Beach Marina was steps from the condo which allowed us to go on a chartered tour to the BVI's and a dinner cruise. Highly recommend taking a trip to the BVI's. The condo is also a very short distance from Red Hook, where you can take a ferry or car ferry to St. John's. We also really enjoyed taking a day trip to St. John's, very beautiful beaches and nature trails to explore. I would definitely recommend this property to a friend or relative, we were very glad we chose to stay in a condo rather than a hotel.

We stayed at the condo for 4 nights and thorougly enjoyed our visit. The view is outstanding and the condo itself was extremely clean and well kept. All appliances were in good working order and having the wireless internet access was great. The area was quiet and both visitors and staff at the property were very nice.
