Fall rates! Corner unit! B301

From a long-time renter's perspective:

I've been visiting Sapphire Beach for nearly 20 years, making it my go-to destination for guaranteed good weather and fun. I've mostly stayed in one of the Parkes' condos, either beachfront or overlooking the harbor—a short, pleasant walk from the beach. The condos are beautifully furnished with tasteful island décor, thanks to Barbara, the co-hostess. The kitchen, baths, and master suite are exceptional, and there's ample space with two separate sleep sofas if needed.

The beach itself boasts clean, white sand and offers an expansive view of the bay, ships passing by, and St. John just a short ferry ride away—perfect for shopping, snorkeling, and dining adventures. Sapphire Beach is also ideal for snorkeling, with a convenient sport hut providing gear and fish food. You can relax under the shade trees or on chaises by the water at Banana Cabana, or enjoy a refreshing dip in the pool nestled between the beach and harbor.

One of the highlights for me has been the day sail and fishing adventures departing from the local harbor. Whether on a small boat or a larger vessel, the experiences have always been enjoyable, complete with onboard meals and drinks. Some trips even venture to the British Virgin Islands to visit places like the Baths on Virgin Gorda or the famous Soggy Dollar bar.
