The view from the two balconies is spectacular. I spent many hours just watching the light play on the water, transforming it into unbelievable shades of blue and turquoise. The islands serving as backdrop with misty layers of hills upon hills, in shades of grays and greens, depending on the time of day. The frothy waves breaking on the jetty was just memorizing. The boats coming to and from the marina. So nice and quiet at this end of the beach. At the other end, near the bar, soft sugar sand, music, people and great swimming. Fun! We spent 10 days at this home away from home and felt so comfortable. The bed, the furniture, is conducive to relaxation. I loved having access to floaties, snorkel gear, yoga mats, and a kitchen that was easy to cook in. The host was quick to respond to our text message question. It's quite a magical place. I highly recommend.

Property is fantastic and the hosts make the preparation for our trip and stay just amazing! Only critique of the location is the cruise passengers that dominate the beach on busy cruise arrival days. Check cruse arrival schedules and it really help you plan you day!

This property is in the perfect location - building E is off to the edge of the property, making it quiet and secluded, without being a long walk to the main Sapphire beach. It was decorated beautifully, but maybe a bit cluttered for my liking. The view is unbeatable! The bed is comfortable, as were the rest of the furniture. You do lose power during storms, but it wasn’t out for long. Perhaps the power outages lead to it being a bit hotter inside than I would have preferred. The AC did work, just not great, but you’re in the Caribbean, so who can complain?!

Absolutely wonderful!!! Peter & Beverly provided us with so much information, from how to check in, drivers to use, what to pack and where to go! They were so responsive and genuinely curious of we were having a good stay. It has been a very long time since we have stayed somewhere with so many amenities, where the owners really seem to care about your experience. Their condo is gorgeous, with immediate beach access in an overall excellent location. Sapphire beach is stunning. We will definitely be back!

The condo is incredible, it has two floors 2nd being master bedroom with sitting area, balcony and bath. First floor is main living room with sofa bed, balcony, kitchen and 2nd bath. They have everything you need for your stay from kitchen items to snorkel gear and beach towels. Owners are easy to work with, they send a detailed email for everything in condo, restaurants in area with real opinions not just hyping up places. They give info about St John and things to do. Anytime we needed any help ( which was not often) they responded very quickly. The condo is near marina side which is quiet side, take a short walk on beach to get to main beach and resort bars and pizza place. Chairs are included big plus. Stunning morning sunrise. We enjoyed our entire stay we would stay in same unit if we ever come back.

This is an ideal location on Sapphire Beach. While the invasive seaweed prevented us from using the beach immediately outside our room, the views, access to pool, and privacy cant be beat. Peter was a responsive host. The condo felt like home as my husband and i spent 10 days celebrating our 12th anniversary. We didnt want to leave and will certainlybe back. We struggled with renting a car from.Elliott who never responded to multiple callls and texts. We went with Joel at Country Car Rental. The service was fantastic and they even stopped off and picked up right at the condo! One restaurant recommendation would be Surf and Turf Bistro in Charlotte Amaile. It doesnt look appealing from the outside, but was so good! Also grab the chicken tacos at the Sapphire Beach bar!
