We will return to the beautiful and fully stocked condo. My husband and I did not want to leave - the views were stunning, the condo was very clean, the furnishings were top of the line and comfortable. The bed almost came home with me. Maureen was so helpful during the booking process and with all her suggestions - she was right on. She suggested many restaurants for us - our favorites were Molly Malones, Agave Terrace, and Off the Hook. I have recommended this vacation spot to at least 5 friends already and more to come for sure! While visiting St. Thomas - you have to go to Magen's Bay and to Trunk Bay on St. John - those are 'must do's'. Thank you Maureen for the beautiful place to stay - we will be back!

The Bella Blue Breeze condo is the ideal location for a stay in St. Thomas. Everywhere you turn, the condo is beautifully decorated in the highest quality to make vacationers feel at home. The view from the deck is nothing short of breathtaking. We spent most of our time on the deck gazing out at the island views and enjoying the luxurious furniture and lighting that Maureen provided. Not to mention, the gorgeous beach and pool at Sapphire are just a short walk away. We snorkeled right outside our door and the experience was amazing! A big thanks to Maureen who had great restaurant suggestions and of course, the Breakaway Charters' British Virgin Islands boat excursion! This day trip shows travelers the best of the BVIs and is adventurous, but relaxing! We will definitely return to Bella Blue Breeze, and I recommend it to everyone! Awesome trip!

We celebrated our 25th anniversary at Bella Blue Breeze and we couldn't have had a more perfect week! This condo is exceptional! It is everything the pictures depict and more - one of the nicest properties at Sapphire, if not THE nicest. We loved the location on a more private stretch of beach and we also loved the close proximity to Red Hook for restaurants and the ferry to St. John. HIGHLY recommend this beautiful condo!

My husband and I just returned for a wonderful stay at E208! The pictures do not do the condo or it's surrounding accommodations credit! We desperately needed a relaxing vacation and this was just the place to do it. We read books, ate at local Red Hook spots, and enjoyed a few day trips while we were there. Our favorite trip was to Jost Van Dyke (pronounced Yost Van Dyke). Foxy's Bar and the Soggy Dollar Bar were truly unique. We have only been home a few days and we already miss it like it was years ago. The owner provides detailed 'things to do and see' and her property manager made the trip easy and stress-free! We highly recommend this location to anyone looking for a quite get-away with options for fun and adventure.

Maureen, Thank you so much for your hospitality and for providing such a beautiful place for our stay! The pictures online are amazing, but we were ecstatic to actually walk into the condo and see that everything had been taken care of. The decorations are gorgeous and the touches that you have added to the condo were awesome - the frozen glasses in the freezer, the CD player with iPod hookup, the big beach towels and beach bag, the comfy bed...everything made us feel right at home. The beach and pool were outstanding. The thing that topped everything off was of course, the balcony. What a view! We'd end nearly every night sitting out there - breeze in our hair, listening to the waves and sipping a cool drink out of those frozen glasses! Such a great experience, and a very relaxing, fun vacation. We also can't say enough about Sam. He picked us up at the airport with his big friendly smile and we just adored him! He made sure we felt right at home, and of course gave us the scoop on where to go and what to do on the island. He was just amazing, and we are so happy to have met him, and we miss him already! We took your advice and Sam's as well on eateries...went to Molly Molones a few times (their BBC's are great!), The Cellar, Oceana (we LOVED it!!), went to Caribbean Saloon to watch some football, to mention a few. The day trip we took to St. John was outstanding. We rented a Jeep and just puttered around the island. Ate at Island Blues - this is a must - what great views of Coral Bay! We loved Hawksnest Bay, too - and you were right...no tourists, just a couple locals and us....we loved it! We saw it on the way in, and after we'd explored the island we came back to Hawksnest, swam and snorkeled a bit and then fell asleep in the sand until we had to head back to the ferry. To sum it up, we could not have asked for a better vacation. The condo was great, Sam was great, the pool/views/beaches were just lovely. I think we've told everyone we know about E208 at Sapphire so expect some new reservation referrals from the Whites! Thanks so much! Beau and Jennifer White

This was our first trip to St.Thomas and we could have not found a better place to stay for our vacation.Starting with a complimentary pick-up from the airport to walking into a wonderfully decorated condo set the stage for a great vacation. The snorkeling was great right of the beach in front of the condo with more tropical fish and coral reef then all the other places we visited on the island.There were never more then two or three people on the sandy beach in front of the condo which felt like that we had our own private beach. Our daughter, son in law and granddaughter rented the corner condo next to us which combined balconies and provided a breathtaking view of the Marina next door to the right,St. John in the middle and the BV islands to the left.We would certainly stay there again the next time we visit St.Thomas.

Can I just say WOW? We spent our honeymoon in this condo and can not even imagine a better location. The place is beautiful, and the property managers Sam & Mona were amazing. We were a little concerned about the property because of reviews we had read online, and we admit, the property itself is so-so... but the E-208 is a four star place to to stay. We can't say enough about how beautifully decorated and comfortable this place was.. and the location close to Red Hook could not be beat (especially since we liked to island hop.. Can't wait to come back!!

This condo, resort, and beach were FANTASTIC! My wife and I celebrated our anniversary there and it was even BETTER than advertised! Beautiful, clean, modern condo, phenomenal view, beautiful beach with many accommodations, and the location was perfect for catching the ferry to St. John (a MUST) or eating at Red Hook. Condo owner is great and a wealth of information, and Sam the property manager was so kind and helpful. We would definitely rent this unit again!

FABULOUS!! Just back from a weeks stay and it was truly one of the best & most relaxing vacations we've had.The condo is without a doubt the nicest at Sapphire-just as depicted in the photo's with top of the line furnishings and the VIEWS! It really does take your breath away.Every morning was spent sipping coffee on the private 2nd floor lanai overlooking the ocean and in the evening you could enjoy a glass of wine looking out over the water & lights of St. John. Sapphire resort does not have much in the way of amenities but the beach is one of the best in St. Thomas.We snorkeled almost every day and the clarity and variety of fish was excellent.Lounge chairs are provided as is 2hrs of snorkel gear per day. Loved the East End location just minutes from the Red Hook Ferry to St. John and the amazing north shore beaches. Many wonderful restaurants in the area.Maureen the owner was very responsive and has thought of everything.Stereo with ipod connection,wonderful towels & bedding,frozen glasses,indoor & outdoor furniture as comfortable as it is beautiful,etc.etc. Don't hesitate to book this condo-you won't be disappointed!!

I highly recommend this condo for your vacation! The minute you open the door to the condo you are overwhelmed by the beauty inside the condo and the bright blue water views. It takes a minute or two to take it all in. After you spend a day or two at the condo, you then notice and appreciate all the attention to the details; the professional decor, the beach towels, the comfortable mattress, the frozen glasses in the freezer, high-quality linens, the radio with great CDs to play, etc, etc. The water activities are conveniently located outside your front door; snorkeling, swimming at the pool, parasailing, day sail to spend the day at the different islands or just relaxing with a beach chair on the beach in front of the condo. This condo sets a very high standard for a vacation rental. You work hard all year waiting to take those precious days of vacation. You deserve to give yourself the best! This condo does not disappoint.
