Great Visit to St Thomas
The condo is steps away from a beautiful beach, great snorkeling, great sand, and lots of sun. It is an upstairs unit in the event you are traveling with someone with mobility issues. The condo itself was spacious and very clean. It is a little dated and used, but you forget about that after the first hours there. The cleanliness was top notch. Please know there is not much near the condo, activity and shopping wise. There are 3 “bars” and 3 “restaurants”. Bar food, pizza, and expensive restaurant. No need to dress up anywhere here. You will find that you will be going to Red Hook a lot after your day in the sun, unless you purchase food and beverages from there early on. The condo has everything you will need to feel at home. We cooked a couple nights and had breakfast and lunch several days there. Prices are high, but if you look around, you will find reasonable drinks and meals; even a little better than home. Happy Hour in Red Hook is between 3-6 and 4-7. Don’t buy alcohol at the airport, cheaper in Res Hook. We would stay here again. Ed was very responsive and gave great suggestions. Take a ferry ride to St John’s, you will be very happy you did. We went to Carnival in Charlotte Amarie. Easy to get a taxi down there, not so easy getting back. Had to hail a Gypsy cab after companies advised they had no one available. Taxi ride for 2 to Red Hook from the condo was $15 one way with tip. The ferry terminal is in Red Hook and you can always get a cab there. Go and Enjoy!

Beautiful location in a nice condo
Sapphire beach was a beautiful place to stay. One of the cleaner, quieter beaches not overrun with cruise passengers. Great beach bar/restaurant and pizza place right there. Our family had a wonderful week. The condo was clean and had everything we needed, including enough beds for our family of 5. Owners and property managers were very responsive to all of our questions and had great tips and advice on what to do and where to go. Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Ed McKernan

Host profile image
The McKernan family currently live in Colorado and while we love the Rocky Mountains, warm weather and the Caribbean Sea constantly call us back! Over the years, we have been traveling to various warm weather places in search of the right place, with the right vibe. We found it here in the Virgin Islands!
Like many people, Ed has experienced a couple of "down-sizings" or "restructures" in the corporate world. Each time he was impacted, he called them sabbaticals (even though he was technically, just unemployed, ha!). Either way, he embraced his short term freedom. Therefore, It only made sense to call our dream condo, "Sea"bbatical! We hope you enjoy your stay!

Why they chose this property

We wanted a place that checked all the boxes: A view, walking distance to the beach, amenities such as a pool, and a vacation feel that included a place for beach front dining and cocktails. Crystal Cove at Sapphire Beach has it all!
The other advantage is the proximity to Red Hook. The town is only 1 mile away and has numerous shops, restaurants, and nightlife! The ferry to St. John and the neighboring islands also leaves from here, making day trips stress free!
