Sapphire Beach, St. Thomas has three main properties to choose from and each has their own unique attributes. They all share one thing in common though and that is they are individually owned and managed. None of these are like a typical resort where you can go to one place and book and view from a central site. We have created this website to showcase rentals from all three properties and try to offer direct booking where possible. Below, we will describe each and give a little more info to help inform your decision when booking.
Sapphire Beach Resort & Marina (1st and 2nd floor are studios, 3rd floor are 2 story one bedrooms). Some owners have renovated and joined multiple units to create full 2 bedroom, 2 bath units)
Sapphire Beach Resort & Marina is a fantastic (mostly) beachfront property with 6 buildings available to choose from as far as views go. A, B and C are located fairly close to all the restaurants, shopping, taxi stand and coffee shop which also has last minute items needed for vacation. Bldg. D is located right in front of the pool with fantastic ocean views and Bldg. E overlooks Red Bay which has some of the prettiest snorkeling at PrettyKlip Point. Bldg. F overlooks the marina and is a very short walk to the beach, a little quieter and easy access to all the awesome excursions that you can partake in during your trip. Sapphire Beach Resort tends to have studios, one bedrooms w/sleeper sofas and some renovated 2 bedrooms and these can comfortably sleep 2-6ppl on average. Sapphire Beach Resort has a beautiful pool and cabana area and guests have access to complimentary beach chairs to set up during the day. This property also tends to be a little more expensive than the other two because of the beachfront access.
Sapphire Village (Studios and One bedrooms)
Sapphire Village is another great property here with 7 bldgs and 2 pools. The above left photo shows the orientation of the blue roof buildings which are the Sapphire Village condos. Most of these are studios and one bedrooms. Sapphire Village overlooks the marina and St. John and has gorgeous views from the balconies of most units. There are two pools located on property with one being connected to Sudi's. Sudi's is a great on site restaurant which offers breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as Sunday Specials often. There are also laundry facilities on site and the property itself is a short walk down the hill to Sapphire Beach and all the restaurants and boutiques. This property is well kept and properly managed; however, it may not be the best choice for anyone with issues walking due to the hill.
Crystal Cove (one, two and three bedroom options)
Crystal Cove, St Thomas is a beautiful ground floor property with manicured paths to the beach as well as more options for space and bigger groups. Crystal Cove is close to the shops and restaurants at Sapphire Beach and is a quick walk over to the marina to check out the excursions offered there daily. Most owners here have renovated their units quite well to allow for more space. Most one bedrooms will have a pull out or sleeper sofa in the living room and there are some who own more than one unit and can offer 2 and 3 bedroom options. Crystal Cove and Sapphire Village tend to be less expensive due to them not being outright beachfront. Guests who stay here have access to the pool, tennis courts and some water sports equipment.
How to Book These Condos!
1.) You can search Sapphire Beach, St. Thomas on VRBO or AirBnB and sift through the options.
2.). You can search our website under the "Stay" tab and see if any work for you. We have listed Direct Booking Links where possible. www.sbrmbookings.com/lodging
3.). You can post your travel dates and preferred property in FB travel groups and most owners will reply with their property link and availability. We have created a FB Group to accompany our website and most guests find this to be a very helpful way to find what they are looking for.

A Word of Caution When Posting in FB Groups! Most owners will reply to your request with their proper info and a 3rd party link (VRBO/AirBnB) to their listing. Or some may respond with a direct link to their property. DO NOT respond to any person that simply says, "Yes, I've got something, send me a DM or I sent you a DM." We do not do DMs as initial contact on these groups and you should not respond to any of these comments. We and other administrators monitor and catch these scammers pretty well but you always want to be cautious.
