Beautiful beach and great location

The unit was clean and functional. Very short walk to a wonderful beach experience. Beach attendant provided beach chairs and the unit owner provided snorkel and other beach gear. Short walk to the adjacent beach bar, pizza restaurant, and coffee shop. Drinks and food were wonderful.Taxi into Red Hook convenient and 6 each way per person. Ferry to St John in Red Hook also convenient and was just under 40 for 2 adults.Attire is very casual, we overpacked and probably used half of what we brought. We booked Marley’s taxi in advance to/from airport and included a stop at Mos market for 120 2 adults.We thought the beach vacation was a terrific blue and are planning a return trip. The owner Jim was responsive throughout.

Excellent location but lacking in amenities

First, the location of the condo to the beach is 10/10. There are food, drink and shop options steps away and that is wonderful. The condo space is also great but it did not live up to the description online in terms of amenities-- we had zero washcloths and had to share one hand towel. There was no toilet paper when we arrived (and as others mentioned we had to wait almost an hour for housekeeping to finish before we could access). In addition, there were general maintenance issues (broken door handle, sliding door off the track, both TP holders are broken, etc). Communication was just ok with owner--he is not located on the island so there was quite a bit of lag time in response and I didn't want to spend my entire stay addressing issues so we just worked with what we had available. Would definitely rent again in the neighborhood but not this unit.

Our family of three stayed here in January 2025 and we had an amazing time. The location is ideal for young and old! Steps from the beach! Jim was extremely responsive and informative! Condo was very clean upon arrival. Would definitely like to book again in the future! Thank you Jim for sharing your piece of paradise!!

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

This HAD to be the BEST place to stay in St. Thomas! Clean, comfortable, easily accessible and a very short walk to the beach, a bar in the beach, and all kinds of amenities. Hosts were easy to get in touch with and the locals were super helpful with easy access to cabs and hot spots.

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.

Wonderful Vacation

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.
