Favorite place to stay on St Thomas
We visit St. Thomas often and Sapphire Beach is our favorite place to stay. This condo is clean. It was easy to communicate with the owner and we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.

Location can not be beat!
Condo is as displayed in the pictures and the location can not be beat - short walk right out to the beach! Condo has a well stocked kitchen if you wanted to prepare any of your own food - and the AC worked great. We had a small issue with the door lock being a little difficult - I contacted Jim and he had the problem solved right away. Overall a great place to stay.

Great Location!
This property has great beach access and is a short drive to Red Hook. We did not have a car, so access was important. There are several places to eat and a seaside bar located next to the property. If you need a taxi there is a stand outside the bar area. The condo was clean and had a good bed and pull out couch. Plenty of towels. It had all the amenities we needed to enjoy a great beach vacation.

Christmas Vacation
The beach was steps away from the condo and there was a nice bar and restaurants on the beach. The condo was a short drive to Red Hook. We took an excursion and ate several times at Red Hook. The property overall had the essentials and was in a great location. We spent most of our time exploring the islands.

Great location!
Could not ask for a better location! The condo is super close to the amazing Sapphire beach, there are a few restaurants/bars on the property, parking for our rental car was easy, and Red Hook is about 3 minutes away. Condo was clean. Air conditioning and ceiling fans worked great. Kitchen had everything I needed to make meals. The bed was the best bed we ever slept on. Jim was fantastic and responsive! He sent me info ahead of my trip so I knew what to expect. He also responded quickly to messages I sent him. Do not hesitate to book this condo! -Brad & Jen

Short Walk to Paradise
What a wonderful place to stay. With just a short walk on this gated community you are right on Sapphire Beach. The view on the beach was gorgeous. There is a bar that is open all day but closes by early evening. The condo was clean and well maintained. Also, right outside the property you can catch the "local" bus to take you into Red Hooks . The owner of the property was very helpful when we emailed with any questions. There are supplies for snorkeling, sand castle making and noodles for floating. Finally, there is a marina in walking distance to buy fresh fish, just look for the Double Header charter boat who will filet your fish too.

Poor management of the condo
Owner tries to manage a property in the islands while living in the states. He does not have a property manager. Was supposed to be able to get into the unit at 3 and it had not even been cleaned. Was able to get in at 5:30. A broken stove sat in the family room for 24 hours. Requested to know when it was going to be picked up with no call or text message. I had 2 - 17 girls staying with us. When they replace the stove, they turned off the pilot to the hot water heater. After two days of taking cold showers, I saw that it had been turned off so I lit the pilot myself. I let the owner know, and he did not even thank me. A small offer of compensation would’ve gone along way of which I asked for and was ignored. Plenty of places to stay in Crystal Cove Sapphire Beach, and I would not stay at this one again. Almost all of them have onsite or personal management.

Perfectly ImPerFect!!
WoW, what a amazing view and location. Let me start with saying, this was my first time having booked with VRBO. I was a little nervous, but also very very excited. I realized once i had landed in St. Thomas, i had not heard from the property owner about logistics and the check-in process (panic #1). However, shortly after making contact...detailed information was sent and getting there was a twisting turning adventure (driving on the wrong side of the road and ALL:)! Once i arrived at the condo i was able to find the unit and when i walked in, it looked like someone was moving out- i was most concerned. (Panic #2) The bed was in pieces and the condo, while neat, was in mild disarray! Contacted property owner and shortly there after, a whole crew of folks showed up and led by the AmaZinG and WonDerFuL Norma! Norma swooped in and began explaining how the previous guest had damaged the bed and she wanted to make sure i had a nice, comfortable stay. They were in the process of making it better. She had a new bed there and was getting it put together. EVerYOnE was incredible. (SIDE NOTE: Owner Jim and his family can be confident that all is well AND Norma works very HARD for the property owners to make sure the guest and needs are taken care of.) (Mild-Panic #3) TV would not work because previous guest had changed settings. Norma called in 2 neighbors, her brother and sister-in-law and then lastly a friend. I insisted it was not a big deal, but there she went again, above and beyond, and it was fixed as well. The previous season with all of the hurricane and distruction has left an island still in survivial mode. BUT, you see what you want to see. AND, the islanders need us to visit and continue to support them through our tourist dollar. Just DON'T go there and be those "impatient" Americans. Understand they are still trying to recover themselves. That being said, I settled in to a week of relaxation, exploration (Rehook ferry to St. John and dining, etc. is a short distance from the condo), and pure joy! Waking up to such an incredible view and what feels like a private beach was worth the trip. Great snorkling there too-sting rays, fish, coral reef). Jim, you and your family have a gem! Was A wonderful time-looking at returning in October. I may have found my home away from home:)

We stayed for seven days and we’re happy with the condo unit. The host was very responsive. We had to check in a little late because the cleaning crew was not ready until an hour and a half after check-in time, but we just hung out on the beach. Overall good experience.

Beautiful beach
Didn’t have to rent a vehicle. Taxi stand next door at the sapphire resort or the safari bus picks you up the Crystal Cove driveway entrance. It was such a pleasure being so close to the beach. Condo paper supplies were enough to get started. The bed was very comfortable, basic kitchenware. We enjoyed the condo and surrounding beaches very much. Thank you Jim.

The condo was exactly as shown in the pictures. My 2 year old and 5 year old had plenty of room to play and sleep. There were many water toys available for them. There were also puzzles and games. Our condo was wonderful and had everything we needed. It really exceeded our expectations. I’ve been to the island many times and plan to book this property again for next year. I have also recommended it to other friends and family members. The owner was extremely easy to work with and responsive. I highly recommend staying here.

Paradise for a family
We just came back from a magical vacation at Barefoot Retreat. It was perfect for our family of four. Just a very short walk to the beach even my 3 year old could walk on her own. The place was clean and perfect size for our family, the pull out couch was great. We could not figure out TV only got local channels but that was okay, we were there for the ocean. Some tips would bring some things like sandwich bags etc those random things you may need at the house, the prices are expensive at grocery store. There is a cute little bar that sells breakfast sandwiches and ice cream. We could get everywhere within 20 mins from our location. My kids loved the salt water pool. The owners were so responsive to any little question we had, everyone was so friendly. We always say we wouldn’t go to the same place twice, but this place would be the exception. It was so wonderful highly recommend.

Sapphire Beach Relaxation
This property was great as it was a very short walk (less than a minute) to the beach. There is a great bar/grill right on the beach and serves fantastic fish tacos! Be prepared that there are not many other options right near the property but Red Hook does offer a plethora of options (within a mile of property). We were very pleased with Jim's quick responses to our questions and the overall property, highly recommend if you're looking for easy access to the beach and a clean property.
