About this property

Newly Renovated Sapphire Beach Studio w/Balcony & Spectacular Ocean View

Thank you for looking at our newly constructed Studio Condo in St. Kitts Building. After Hurricanes Irma and Maria in September of 2017, the entire building was completely gutted and rebuilt. Each unit was then finished by the individual owners. We put a lot of thought and effort into this unit, taking into account our many years of management and concierge service at major resorts in the Caribbean.

This unit is fitted with an ultra quiet AC system that will keep you cool and comfortable through out your stay. The custom kitchen features granite counters and stainless appliances. The all new bathroom has beautiful walk-in shower with glass and stainless accents. The queen size bed has a 14 inch premium memory foam mattress. There is a brand new smooth sliding glass door leading out to a cozy outside balcony where you can enjoy morning coffee or shaded afternoon cocktails while looking out over Sapphire Resort and the beautiful islands nearby. This unit has cable TV and WiFi.

The unit is fully stocked with linens and towels for both bath and beach. There are beach chairs and snorkel gear for you to enjoy. The kitchen is complete with refrigerator, a glass cook-top stove, microwave oven, toaster, coffee maker and most everything you need for making light meals should you choose to eat in.

Just outside the building, only 100 ft. away is one of two swimming pools on the property. There is a restaurant and bar just a 3 minute walk from the unit. Sapphire beach is just down the hill (7 minute walk). Red Hook with it's many bars and restaurants, grocery store and ferry to St. John is just 3 minutes away by car or taxi.

St. Thomas is a hilly (volcanic island) island and Sapphire Village is built on the side of a hill overlooking Sapphire Beach and the waters beyond. While this offers amazing views, it does mean that walking home from the beach is up hill. Please keep that in mind as a short walk down to the beach means a slightly more exercising walk back at the end of the day.

As owners of several units, Heidi and Robert are often nearby and can always be reached by phone or email. We have lived in the Caribbean most of our lives, and enjoy sharing our knowledge of local history, culture, places to visit and favorite eateries and watering holes. We are very happy to help arrange tours, excursions, boat rentals, massages, car or jeep rentals and more. Please don't hesitate to ask.

We hope that you will choose to stay with us and have an amazing vacation here on St. Thomas!

Sapphire Beach
Great location - Sapphire Beach is a great beach and location. The beach is beautiful with a nice reef for snorkeling. Sudi's is a good bar with decent food and drink options.The room could use a few upgrades but was comfortable. One power outage (about 3 hours) which I hear is common. I was a little startled when I found people in our room spraying for pest control but otherwise peaceful.

It was nice. worked for us. have had rooms with better view. People who text us, regarding the room, were very nice. Yes, housekeeping had the room clean for us when we got there. We've stayed at Saphire village before and do like it. The beach is beautiful!

St. Kitts Condo-
Stunning views, condo had everything we needed, including beach towels, ice chest and beach chair! Short walk to swimming pools and Sudi's Restaurant/Bar. This would be a perfect condo except the road below is the incoming gate to Sapphire Village which resulted in some noise at times. The owner was very prompt in getting back to me. Overall, I'd stay there again!

Very nice unit, well equipped in the highest building on the property. We rented a car so it is easy to go to the beach down below carrying all your beach gear ( cooler, chairs, beach bags ) if you were walking figure a 15 minute walk to the swimming beach area. We are 68 so it can be a hike going back up if you are lugging stuff back up the hill. Unit is all updated and nice view from balcony.

Our stay in Paradise
This was a great choice for a stay in St. Thomas! It was in a great location, near the beach and near the town of red hook. The hosts were very informative about St. Thomas and easy to reach when we had any questions. The condo itself was very clean, had beach chairs and towels for the beach, and any kitchen supplies we needed for cooking. Overall 10/10 stay would highly recommend this place and these hosts to anyone looking to stay in St.Thomas!

As described and very convenient
I must say I am very impressed with the property. The room was clean (minus one hair on the spread). The kitchen was very clean and had most of the things you needed to cook daily small meals and store things. The bed was a little soft (personal preference) but comfortable. COMMUNICATION: the owners were so helpful and communicated OFTEN! Gave excellent recommendations and overall assistance in getting around. I can't say enough home much we appreciated the help and assistance. Pictures/Amenities: The balcony gave such a beautiful view. Very clean and had all the things you needed for the beach. I saw that a couple of reviewers mentioned about the power going out. It is not the fault of the owner. It rained a couple of days during our stay and the power went out. It came back on a few minutes later and nothing was an issue. I even was able to communicate with the owners and was reassured it would come back on and it did. St. Thomas is beautiful but a little pricey. Be sure to understand that you must walk to get to Sapphire Beach and those hills are serious but as stated in the listing it was explained accurately. I would definitely stay here again if in St. Thomas. If they had other properties elsewhere I would stay there too. Thanks for a pleasant stay and assistance with everything.

We were greeted with a floral arrangement on table and all the amenities of home but far away. We really enjoyed our stay. It was restful after a full day of activities. The snorkeling equipment and chairs were super nice touch! You really gave us a nice feel for the vacation spots of the island! Oh and all the tips you helped us with were spot on!

Nice vacation
Was easy to get to with a taxi service. Would recommend a car for longer stays. Everything from the listing was accurate. Sapphire Beach is really nice with a breakfast cafe and bar nearby. The view from the patio was a plus! The only downside is the pricey security deposit but worth it otherwise.

Glad we chose to stay here for our vacation
Wonderful view, very close to the beach. You chill on the balcony and enjoy the sunset. They have everything you need and more for a comfortable vacation. The bed pillows felt so good btw; better than a hotel. The upstairs neighbors were a little noisy at times but that’s out the hosts’ control. Choose this place if you can.

Excellent Vacation Getaway
My girlfriend & I rented this property for a 4 day vacation getaway & it was so worth it! Extremely clean, excellent view (as advertised), short walk to the beach & much more! With two pools nearby, Sapphire Beach, & Red Hook, there was so much to take advantage of! I would stay here again every time. The only tiny downside is the walk down & back up to the property from the beach, but it did not take away from any of the experience! 10/10 - Thank you so much

Beautiful unit, view and relaxing area of St. Thomas to stay.
We had a great stay! Great view sitting on the balcony having our morning coffee, and such an easy walk to the beach! Gorgeous pools, and delicious outdoor dining (great air circulation) at Sudi’s restaurant a 3 min. walk without leaving the community. Great chef and service! Also, check out Pangea for great dining (10min walk) Robert and Heidi are very responsive, and give clear, accurate instructions. Thanks! We’ll be back!

Enjoy all the perks of St Thomas at a Great Value
Great beach albeit was a hike down but the fantastic view you get from this location on the property makes up for it. Not much open at the resort due to COVID so if you want to provision or go out to eat it’s a 5 minute cab ride to Redhook. WARNING- if you fly into St Thomas for your stay here make sure you bring your negative COVID test as the military is checking tests at the airport before they let you into the airport terminal and may quartine you

Wonderful people to stay with
this was the perfect little launch pad as i move to this island. the owners were very accommodating with date changes due to covid/lockdowns/etc and they gave me priority in figuring it all out. it was nice and took a load of stress off. the apartment itself is close to the beach which has a fun little coffee shop, bar, etc. it's close to red hook for groceries and the ferry. the space itself had everything i needed: clean, no mold, good views, updated, great kitchenette, and it felt safe (since i'm traveling alone right now). i really enjoyed sapphire :) i would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Nice stay!
Robert and Heidi, Thanks for a great stay! We enjoyed our time in St. Thomas. The condo is located in close proximity to everywhere we needed to go during our stay - Sapphire Beach, Lindquist Beach, Red Hook area, etc. The bed was very comfortable and it was a bonus that we were able to use the snorkeling gear during our stay. Very fun! Great views from the balcony. I didn’t mind the steep walk up to the unit, but it did get tiring after five days. If you are elderly or have any issues with physical fitness, I would only recommend staying here if you have a rental car. We had rented a car and were able to drive down and park whenever needed (parking was free within the entire condo complex) - a nice bonus! My only “wish” for the stay would have to be the luxury of daily cleaning and new linens daily (not sure if that was an option or not). Overall, it was a nice vacation and felt safe. Amanda

The price is right!
This was a very clean and convenient little studio that acted as our home base in St. Thomas. I do recommend you either have a car, or expect to take a cab. The beach that was a stone's throw from this condo is absolutely beautiful, though it is a VERTICAL walk back up to the condo, as the studio is located in the highest building of the complex. We are fit and enjoy the challenge, but it is not for everyone. It is easy enough, however, to get a lift up. The view from the balcony of our condo is just as pictured - beautiful. The restaurant that is on the complex property and an easy walk - just a couple of minutes from the condo - is one of the best restaurants we visited. We enjoyed a lovely brunch, and dinner one night with great live music. Overall, a great stay, and the hosts were so responsive when I reached out via e mail with a question. Great deal, good time. Thank you.
