My wife and I recently stayed at the condo listed above. Working with the owner was easy, trustworthy and smooth...no problem.
We have been to Sapphire Beach several times in the past but the first time to stay at the property condo's.
It is was great...and this part of the island is great. The restaurant's are very close and the food was great.
Condo was great, everything we needed and of course the "view" speaks for itself.
We will absolutely be back!

This condo rental is absolutely beautiful. The location is great, we especially liked being in ‘C’ Bldg. Since this is a villa, the views from the 3rd and 4th floors are spectacular! It is so nice to relax on one of your balconies in the morning with your tea and the evening with a cocktail and enjoy the best view on St. Thomas. The pictures of the inside of the condo on the website are exactly as pictured, we felt it was even better once we arrived. The owners have done a beautiful job decorating and they keep it well maintained. It was well equipped with everything you need, especially the kitchen items. The electric grill on the porch was a plus and a cooler is there for your use if you want to spend the day at another beach. The resort is very close (5 mins.) to Red Hook for groceries, dining and shopping which makes it very convenient. The beach at Sapphire is beautiful. It is quiet and not crowed by the condo area. The snorkeling is great. The property staff are all very friendly and are willing to assist you any way they can. I highly recommend renting from Lise, the owner of this condo. She is very pleasant and helpful and gets back to you quickly with answers to any questions you may have. We stayed here in January 2013 and have already made a reservation to come back in 2014!
You will not be disappointed if you rent this lovely condo.
Owner's Response: I am so glad you had such a wonderful vacation...Sapphire is hard not to fall in love with!!! Looking forward to you returning in 2014... already have you in my calendar!!! Thank you for the nice comments.

My family and I have stayed at Sapphire Beach before, but this was the first time at Lise's. It was super nice, very well equipped, and clean. The layout is great for a couple, or a small family--my husband and I have two teenage daughters who slept on the fold-out sofa in the living room, and we stayed in the master bedroom upstairs. Really nice that both areas have balconies and beautiful views of Sapphire Beach! The location is perfect, this is a very quiet area but you are not far at all from Red Hook if you want a little more excitement in the evenings. The pool is great, when my girls were younger they preferred that to the ocean but now they love to snorkel. You can see lots of marine life right off the shore, this is really one of the best snorkeling beaches on the island. Lise, thank you so much--we look forward to coming back!
Owner's Response: I am so happy you and your family had a wonderful time. It was a pleasure having you has guests. I would love to have you as guests again in the future...looking forward to having you back!!!!!

Best Vacation

My stay was amazing. The villa was even better than I could have ever expected. The view was indescribable and the beach was perfect. I couldn’t have asked for a better vacation. The pictures on this website don't do this paradise justice. Every morning I woke up and had my coffee on the balcony looking out to the ocean.

Lise was very helpful with booking our stay and was able to answer all of our questions.

I have already recommended this villa to all of my friends and family and I’m planning to rent from Lise again as soon as possible.
Owner's Response: Thank you for all the nice comments. It is wonderful waking up to that view every morning! Hope to see you back to Sapphire soon.

The condo was in a perfect location for hanging out at the beach and beautiful coral reefs for some fantastic snorkeling.
It was a 2 min. drive into Red Hook for some good eating and the ferry to visit St. John, and the other islands. It was far enough away from Charolette so it wasn't crazy crowded everyday because of cruise ships. But only a 15 min. drive when we wanted to do some shopping there.
We plan on coming back soon. The owner Lise made us feel very welcome and was very helpful in answering any questions we had.
Wonderful vacation..

A week in Paradise

Traveled from Boston to STT and had a glorious week at Saphire. Extremely comfortable condo right on the beach with spectaular views of the US and British Virgin Islands. Looked forward to coffee on the balcony every morning with a sustained wind to keep things cool. Dinners at several local eateries in Red Hook and a day trip to St John for views, beaches and lunch at Skinny Legs. Met some very nice local folks and enjoyed many of the local "hot spots" with out the feeling of being a visitor. For golfers, recommend a round at Mahagony Run. Beautiful course and some very challenging holes on the "back nine". Wonderful relaxing time and will be going back for more next year. Enjoy!

A beautiful Wedding in Paradise!!!

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Jun 11, 2012
  • Stayed: Jun 2012
We just got back from a long weekend at Sapphire Beach Resort and loved the condo Lise rented us! We couldn't have asked for a more spectacular view. The condo was clean, well equipped and comfortable (except for all the beds....we were anxious to get a good night sleep) We could have used more kitchen towels and never did get our bath towels replaced. The staff on site was very friendly (loved Thor!!) and we had everything we wanted in a vacation. We grilled lunch and dinner two nights in the condo. Again, we had everything we needed. We ate fresh fish sandwiches and nice cold beers at Fishtails and the 'rehearsal dinner' at Coca Blue, both close by in Red Hook. Perfect!!! Great sangria!!! Our daughter's wedding was like out of a fairytale storybook! Truly magical and private and beautiful on Cinnamon Bay. We took the ferry over to St. John early without any trouble. We had the reception lunch at the OceanGrill, which was gorgeous and delicious!!! The happy couple stayed on St. John for their honeymoon for another week, hiking, snorkeling and dining on each other's love. What a place to begin your new life!! We were really sad to leave and would love to visit again! Thank you Lise for your condo. Hope to be calling on you again in the future.

Owner's Response: I am glad you had wonderful stay at our condo and that your daughter's wedding was beautiful. It was a pleasure renting to you. I am a little confused on the bedding comment. The master bedroom has a king size pillow top mattress that is relatively new. And I have never had a complaint about the comfort of the sleeping accommodations, quite the contrary as you can see in the reviews below. The beds were very comfortable when we were there in March, but I will check it out when we are there this summer.

Our dreams came true!

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Jun 9, 2012
  • Stayed: May 2012
We stayed at Sapphire Beach Resort (C-304) in May and cannot wait to return.
The condo was everything the website promised and more. The pictures are a very accurate depiction of the villa but no photos could really do justice to the spectacular views from the 2 balconies. The owner Lise, made the rental process painless – with her prompt responses to emails and questions.
The unit has everything you would need for cooking and has two full bathrooms, one on each level. There is a cooler and thermal jug available to take your snacks and drinks to the beach for the day. Each morning we enjoyed our coffee and the beautiful view of the beach, palm trees and ocean from the balcony. There are two flat screen TV’s in the condo although we actually never used them during the entire two weeks as we preferred the beautiful sound of the ocean and chose to keep the patio doors open with the screen and the AC turned off to listen to the surf.
We had a mid-stay cleaning and this worked wonderful for our needs but if you require daily housekeeping you can arrange to pay extra for this service.
There is plenty of closet space and drawers in the master bedroom and the whole condo unit is quite modern and very tastefully decorated throughout.
Beach chairs and daily exchange of your beach towels are included with the rental.
We hired private roundtrip transport from a guy called Smitty who charges $120 round trip and gives you a private tour of some of the Island when you arrive and stops at a grocery store.
Smitty took us to Food Center on the day we arrived and we picked up the bulk of our groceries that day and then re stocked mid stay on the day we rented the car.
We loved the Beach and terrific snorkeling and enjoyed going out to see the sea turtles (in front of the dive shop towards the red roofed house area) and exploring the active coral reef every day. In addition to turtles, we saw a spotted eagle ray, several sting rays and reef rays, barracuda, conch, and several species of fish including very large sized parrot fish on the reef. We did not use the pool much, as we prefer the ocean, but it does provide a spectacular view of St. John and BVI and we saw someone cleaning it daily.
We would highly recommend renting from Lise if you are looking for a well appointed condo with amazing views and if you enjoy a laid back vacation with quiet beach and peaceful surroundings!
