Oceanfront Ground Floor Condo. 37 Steps to the Water
You truly can’t get any closer to the water than this oceanfront, ground-floor condo at Sapphire Beach Resort & Marina — just 37 steps from the crystal-clear Caribbean Sea.
Step off your patio and onto one of the most breathtaking beaches in the world. With no stairs or elevators to navigate, you can move effortlessly between your condo and the shoreline all day long — perfect for morning coffee by the water, midday swims, and sunset strolls.
Beachfront Living at Its Best
Spend your days swimming, snorkeling, or simply floating in the warm, turquoise waters of Sapphire Beach. The reef just offshore makes this a favorite spot for easy, vibrant snorkeling right from the beach. We provide beach chairs and some snorkel gear so you can start enjoying the water the moment you arrive.
Prefer to simply unwind? Relax on the sand and take in sweeping views of St. John and the surrounding islands. Island time comes naturally here — and yes, someone may stroll by offering a refreshing drink or a snack while you lounge.
Adventure Right Next Door
On the other side of the building, the marina offers endless ways to elevate your stay. Rent jet skis, go parasailing, book a snorkeling or scuba excursion, or charter a romantic sunset cruise directly from the property. Whether you’re seeking laid-back relaxation or unforgettable adventure, everything is right at your fingertips.
Resort Amenities
In addition to the beach just steps away, guests enjoy:
A beautiful resort pool
Beachfront dining and frozen cocktails at the Beach Bar.
On-site marina with water-sports and excursion bookings
The island’s famous (and friendly) iguana visitors
Need to check email, post your beach photos, research restaurants in nearby Red Hook, or confirm flight details? The condo includes free wireless internet, so you can stay connected while still feeling worlds away.
If you’re searching for a BEACHFRONT · OCEANFRONT · GROUND FLOOR condo in St. Thomas where the sand and sea are practically at your doorstep, this is it. Sapphire Beach truly has everything you need to enjoy your stay in paradise — and this location puts you closer to it all than almost anywhere else on the island.

About the host
Hosted by Gregg and Aimee Dodd
Aimee and I live in Pittsburgh, PA and try to get to St. Thomas as often as possible. With a kid and two dogs, it's not always that easy.
Why they chose this property
After spending our honeymoon at Sapphire Beach Resort in 2000, we knew we had found one of the most beautiful beaches we’d ever experienced. Over the years, we’ve traveled to Aruba, Mexico, the Bahamas, Punta Cana, and many other popular destinations—but we always find ourselves returning to Sapphire Beach.
There’s something special about being able to truly relax and feel safe, and the fact that it’s in the U.S. makes it even more comforting. The people are warm and welcoming, and there’s always something to see or do. For us, Sapphire Beach isn’t just a vacation spot—it feels like coming home.

What makes this property unique
This condo truly offers one of the best locations at Sapphire Beach Resort & Marina. It’s perfectly positioned just far enough from the main beach activity and pool area to enjoy peace and relaxation whenever you want it — yet close enough that in 40–50 easy steps you’re poolside. A short stroll beyond that brings you to the marina, where water adventures await. You’re centrally located with effortless access to everything the resort has to offer.
When we arrive, we like to stock up on groceries and enjoy breakfast and lunch in the condo, taking full advantage of the beachfront setting. We’re beach people at heart, so our days are spent soaking up the sun and swimming in the beautiful waters of Sapphire Beach.
In the evenings, we head into nearby Red Hook for dinner and a little nightlife. One of our favorite stops is Duffy's Love Shack — a must-visit for fun island energy (just don’t arrive too early… the party needs time to get going!).
It’s the perfect balance of tranquility, convenience, and island fun — all right at your doorstep.
