About Patrick Brown
We love the water, boats, fishing, diving and of course hitting the beach. We have invested in this property and truly love it and the surrounding area and take pride in our ownership. We know you will enjoy our home and all that is available for you to do while on vacation. We visit quite often and update our unit just about each and every visit with new art work, furniture or other items we feel add style and substance with an island vibe.
Patrick Brown purchased this Studio in 2015
Why Patrick Brown chose Estate Smith Bay
My wife and I chose to buy here because we simply love the USVI/BVI and love to travel throughout the islands. We do have a local presence as well as our caretaker lives nearby and is available in case you need something taken care of while staying in our home. Yes, the views are wonderful and we find ourselves sitting on the balcony quite a bit just staring at the gorgeous water and incredible islands in the distance! We are proud owners and really enjoy the atmosphere poolside at Sapphire Village as well as visiting Sapphire Beach where there is some very good snorkeling. Just up the road is Lindquist and Coki Beach which has some wonderful beach diving as well as snorkeling. It really is great owning a piece of paradise! This area offers plenty for those who love the water and all that is associated with it. Nearby town of Red Hook is great and the Ferry Terminal is such an advantage to have close by for those who want to visit the other islands.
What makes this Studio unique
Yes, it is the view, no doubt about it. As soon as you walk in you just fall in love all over again! We truly enjoy sitting on the balcony with a cup of coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the early evening taking in the turquoise hues and colors, the waters are really that vibrant. Usually it is a very clear view and it really is great to watch the boats come and go as well as para-sailing right nearby. Also its wonderful to be just a few steps away from a lovely pool and restaurant and gorgeous Sapphire Beach.

Beautiful views with even greater places to discover
Beautiful and relaxing
Great choice of words for your review--I believe the views are truly incredible as well and always look forward to our visit to our home. I am glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to hearing from you in the future. Thanks again!
clean property with all the amenities necessary to enjoy your stay.
Owner was very accommodating and responded promptly to my questions. The condo is clean and well outfitted with everything you'd need. I didn't use the snorkel gear, but there are two sets available. The views are outstanding from the deck and Sapphire beach is just down the hill. I'll be looking to stay here again on my next vacation to St. Thomas.
One note, you'll want to bring breakfast items with you, the restaurant doesn't open until noon and coffee is hard to come by unless you make your own (coffee maker is in room).
I am very glad you enjoyed your stay and happy to help out in advance by answering any questions you had. I honestly feel the east end of St. Thomas has the best of everything-great beaches and restaurants which are all very close to our condo and it is very easy to get in and out of this area to visit the rest of the island. As of this writing, Slice VI restaurant at Sapphire Village is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Please consider my unit for your next visit and thanks again for choosing my home for your vacation!
Wonderful
Beautiful views
Maria, I think your one word review sums it up quite nicely! Thanks for choosing my home for your vacation and we look forward to your return.
This is a perfect Studio condo.
This is a perfect clean studio condo, it was supplied with everything that you could think of such as; bath and hand towels, beach towels, beach chairs, snorkeling gear and other beach gear, all of the kitchen utensils you need. The patio scenery was awesome. This condo was in a perfect location, it is near Red Hook where you can catch the ferry to go to St John's, and plenty of places to eat drink, listen to live and sports bars. The grocery store is a little expensive but alcohol was about the same price.
We did not rent a car but there were always taxis and Safaris available for transportation to go to the beaches and to go shopping. You also can catch the Safari down the hill to go to other Islands such as water Island and other shops.
The sapphire grounds where the condo is located is safe, quiet, clean, and has a great Beach and friendly people.
By far this was the best vacation ever.
Hello Mary! I am so glad you enjoyed your stay at my condo. I know first hand how wonderful it is to simply enjoy the lovely views on the balcony as you watch the world go by sipping a glass of wine! We look forward to having you as our guest for your next visit, thanks once again for choosing my home for your vacation.
Wonderful!
We had power which we weren't expecting. Our condo was perfect. I loved being in the Red Hook area. Our owner, Patrick, kept us well informed.
Hello Elyse. We were so glad the power returned early December for us and all was working for your visit. Thanks for choosing my condo and am so glad you enjoyed your stay.
Property was excellent and very well kept. Condo was well maintained with all needed amenities
Overall property and condo was excellent! Plenty of room in studio and layout was comfortable. Great view from the deck of the beautiful ocean, boats and great for sunrise and sunset. Breakfast overlooking the water was really enjoyable! All needed amenities in condo and local grocery stores made shopping easily. Owners also did an excellent job in providing detailed information of local attractions, restaurants, beaches and things to do. Can't wait to spend more time for another visit.
So glad you enjoyed your stay and we hope to have you return once again!

You can charter boats for snorkeling/dive/sightseeing trips as well as sunset cruises and deep sea fishing. Sapphire Beach is a lovely beach with great snorkeling and a local dive shop (Dive In) where you can rent snorkeling equipment and beach chairs. The beach now has a great place for drinks and snacks, the Sapphire Beach Bar and Grill. Right next to the lower pool and just a few steps away from the condo is the lovely Slice VI restaurant open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
