Exceeded our expectations!

I would give this place ten stars if I could! One of the best units we have ever visited! This property is well maintained and is equipped with everything you could possibly need! Just a short walk to the beach, a boutique & 5 restaurants. This was perfect for our family as we enjoy spending the majority of our time at the beach. If you want night life or lots of shopping.... this neighborhood isn't for you. Thank you Rachel & John for a wonderful visit!

Mixed reviews...

Great location. Beautiful beach. Unfortunately, there was no hot water and the phone number for the property owner went unanswered. The office was not able to help or reach the owner. Reaching out through VRBO did elicit an immediate response and the owner explained that the phone number listed several times on the VRBO page was no longer the correct number. The property owner stated the hot water issue was an easy fix, but did not offer to have anyone come over and stated he would be next "guest" at the property. The TVs did not work and turning on the shower head in en suite bathroom was not intuitive.

Third visit to the island

We decided to rent the condo this trip and it was amazing. The condo is 5 minites from Red Hook and the ferry parking garage. We cooked dinner and breakfast several times and just watched the waves from the dining area. Would stay here again on next trip to island.

Wonderful VRBO!!

We had a fantastic time in St Thomas, and The Purple Lotus was the perfect place for us! There were three in our group, (me, my husband and our teenager). The condo has been renovated beautifully, and the description and photos online are completely accurate. The kitchen was completely stocked with everything you could possibly need. There are coolers, all the beach supplies, plenty of towels, everything you need! The location is the best part! Sapphire Beach is gorgeous. Just a short, maybe three minute walk, to the beach, a pizza shop, coffee/breakfast cafe, burger bar, and rooftop fine dining. There’s live music at the bar on Sunday evenings, and at least one other night during the week. A few minutes from that, and you’re at the marina, with access to charter boats and sail boats, plus another restaurant/bar nearby. Red Hook is a five minute drive away, with plenty of more restaurants, grocery, pharmacy, another marina, and the ferry to St. John. Also, communication with travel and John was very good. We communicated through the app, and they were quick to respond every time, within a few minutes. We had a few glitches, as is very coming with any Caribbean trip, and Rachel or John were able to help very quickly. This was our third trip to STT, and we love staying at Sapphire Beach! We would definitely book again!

About the host

Hosted by Rachel Brasile

Hi, My husband and I recently purchased this property and just finished remodeling the entire property at the end of April. It is now fully stocked and ready to rent out to those smart and lucky renters who choose our location and enjoy the luxury of the newest condo in the complex. We are excited to be back in the rental program and to be able to share our newly renovated and comfortable location with those looking for a tropical retreat filled with fun and relaxation. John and I have lived in Connecticut all our lives. We own and operate an asphalt paving company and home construction for the past 40 years. We spent January, February, and March in our unit. So for anyone who wants to rent outside those dates we welcome you to contact us.

Why they chose this property

John and I have spent the last 10 years renting in St. Thomas all the while looking for the perfect location to buy. We finally came across a unit at Crystal Cove west steps from the beach which is very hard to find in St. Thomas. While there are many beautiful beaches in St. Thomas most of them require you to drive, park and walk to. There is nothing like the luxury of walking out your door with a towel and sunscreen and stepping onto the beach where you are greeted with free beach chair service and the delightful breeze coming off the crystal clear water.

What makes this property unique

The great benefits this property has to offer is that it is just steps to the beach in a small, private, and secure in a gated location. It is 3 minutes to the center of popular Red Hook that has many shops, great restaurants, and a grocery store. Its also very close (3 minutes) to the ferry docks if your interested in venturing out to some other islands. No car, no problem as Crystal Cove is also on the bus line. You can book many tours and activities right from our location. Come and have some fun! You can play tennis, swim, snorkel, scuba dive, take a tour, island hop, charter a boat, or just relax...the options are limitless. Namaste!
