About this property

Salt Life at Sapphire Beach

Salt Life at Sapphire Beach, on St Thomas is a beautiful studio condo at the gated Sapphire Village, sitting on the second floor of the building and looking over the turquoise waters of Sapphire Marina and Sapphire Beach. The views looking out over the Caribbean Sea while you enjoy your morning coffee or your evening drinks are spectacular. We love watching the sail boats take off for their evening cruises. Salt Life is located on the East End of St. Thomas, where all of the action is! When you first pull into the driveway of the resort on top of the hill, your breathe will be taken away at the view of the turquoise waters, and islands in the distance. Both the night life of Red Hook ($2.00 Safari Cab ride away), or the Sapphire Beach Marina and all it's island tours and water sports, are steps away. There are two pools on the property to cool off, one of which has Slice,VI restaurant and bar located nearby. If you want a fine dining experience, or listen to an evening band hop over to Red Hook, a 2 minute drive.Salt Life is perfectly suited for a couple or single traveler. We have set it up with everything you would need for your stay. A 50" smart TV with a Salt Life Netflix profile, Hulu, and other apps via Roku streaming device and your own private WIFI, and a fully stocked kitchen for some quick meals. We also provide 2 beach chairs, beach towels, 2 snorkel 🤿 masks, and a cooler for your trip to the beach 🏝.

Our host, John, had exceptional communication throughout the booking and stay. He provided great overviews of Red Hook and suggestions for the best cab service and restaurants. He anticipated everything we would need to know. This small but cute property had a balcony overlooking the Marina. It made it easy to book the Breakaway sunset and St. John snorkel tours, saving time and cab fares. There are two relatively small pools on the property, the larger one by Sudi's beach bar and restaurant. Keep in mind you are staying at the condos, not the resort.
We loved the beach interior design.

Honeymoon

The property was just as described. A little further from the beach than we thought, but we had a rental and there are so many great beaches to visit in STT. John was very helpful & informative. Laundry was close by & resturant on site was good. The beach chairs & coolers were so handy! We had a great time.

Pros and Cons…Pros: Our condo was awesome, the owner was responsive and great to deal with, plus we were 4 minutes from Red Hook, 8 minutes from Secret Harbor. There ARE decent to upscale restaurants and coffee shops on property, but at some point you WILL want to leave for variety and other shopping, without driving the rollercoaster roads all the way back to Charlotte Amalie. Cons: The only “con” we had was one occasion that we wanted to do some laundry, which had little to do the VRBO. In fact it wasn’t pressing and we blew it off because On property laundry is a joke. Does not take money or a card, only tokens, which are only available through the main office during normal office hours. No detergents for sale either, have to travel to get those. Gain laundry detergent was 19 for a mini jug about 1/3 the size back in the states. Pool was…ok.

This condo is adorable!

The condo was adorable! The condo owner was very easy to communicate with and quickly answered any questions we had. The condo's beach chairs came in handy at all of the beaches we traveled to. Our one and only issue was the items stored right outside the condo balcony. This was in no way the owner's fault, but the property manager's fault. The broken down construction equipment shouldn't be stored where tenants have to view it. Otherwise, the view of the marina was delightful and we enjoyed watching the fishing boats setting out in the mornings and returning in the evenings. The property had a tent set up in the back where the items could have been stored out of sight, but the tent was mostly empty. We'll definitely be back, though, and hopefully those items will be gone.

Great location in a beautiful area!

My husband and I had a great time exploring beaches in this area. The condo was great! Very clean, and beautifully decorated. It had everything we needed, including beach chairs, snorkeling equipment, and beach towels. Our only suggestion would be, unless you like a very soft mattress, please replace the mattress.

About the host

Hosted by John Degen

Host profile image

We have been travelling to most of the Caribbean islands for the past 19 years of our marriage. We found the island of St Thomas to be the most centrally located to take boat tours to many of the other British Virgin Islands and enjoy the day. Plus you don't need a US Passport! We also feel St Thomas has the best beaches in the Caribbean. Both Lindquist and Magens Bay are two of the most spectacular white sand beaches we have ever found. A day trip to St. Johns will get you to Trunk Bay, and THE best beach you will ever see. We finally decided to buy a piece of this paradise for our family to enjoy, and we hope others will as well.

Why they chose this property

We found the East End of the island, and specifically the Sapphire Beach area to be the best location on the island. It is only a 10-20 minute drive to Lindquist and Magens Bay. About a 5 minute drive to Coral World on the north side. Red Hook is only 5 minutes away, has many shops and restaurants, and the ferry to St Johns in there also. . Location, location, location!
