Another great stay
We have stayed here twice now and had a great time. The location is perfect. The recent upgrades to the exterior and windows adds a nice touch. Also the windows appear to be more sound proof (roosters) than before and made for a quieter stay. Ed is extremely quick to reply to any questions leading up to the trip and Savannah who is on island is quick to help with any issues that arise during your stay.

My family loved this property! The location is incredible, just steps to the beach and great snorkeling. The condo was super clean, well-stocked, and communication with Ed and his local property manager (Savannah) were great. My family already can’t wait to stay here again!

Great stay!
Location was perfect, only a few steps to a beautiful beach, very short drive to Red Hook for ferry, dining, and a market for groceries. Condo had plenty of room for a family of 5 to sleep and had everything we needed. Plenty of towels, blankets, and pillows, AC worked great. Both Savannah and Ed were very responsive. Would stay again!

Click Book
Clicking book was the best decision! Sapphire Beach is where you want to be. It is clean, quiet, and not flooded with cruise passengers. Great beach bar/coffee shop/restaurant all just within steps from the condo. Beach chairs are readily available and the condo owner/property manager were very responsive and extremely helpful. The marina is walking distance, a taxi stand is close, and Red Hook is nearby. There is also a reliable Jeep rental place, at your convenience. All in all, highly recommended!

Very rough beginning
When we arrived at the condo, the code the manager sent did not work. We tried calling both the manager and the owner and did not receive a response for several hours. This was very frustrating after a long day of travel. When we did get into the condo later that night, there was no hot water. Again I contacted the owner and they said they would let the property know. It wasn’t until after 3pm the next afternoon that we finally had hot water. Next problem was the kitchen sink and the bathtub shower would not drain. Again - had to contact the owner and they did the repair the next day. I have been to St Thomas many times and was very disappointed not only with the issues we had in the beginning, but also with the response of the owner. I would stay somewhere else for the amount they charge.

Beautiful Condo at Sapphire
The condo was clean and exactly as pictured. Ed was kind and very responsive to us. When we arrived there was even a complimentary bottle of champagne in the fridge. I grew up in St. Thomas and when my husband and I go back we always stay at Sapphire or Crystal Cove. You cannot beat the location. You walk right out to a beautiful beach with snorkeling, a bar, pizza place, coffee shop and upscale restaurant. It truly has everything you need. We had a great time. Thank you Ed!

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!

Great Stay
This is about our 7th trip staying at Crystal Cove and the unit we normally rent was not available so we gave this property a shot. This unit had a few more aerinites than we normally have such as washer / dryer, dishwasher and the best of all a dehumidifier. The property is as advertised in the photos and we enjoyed our stay. Ed was a great host and answered all our questions leading up to our stay. We would definitely stay here again.
