| We just returned from a wonderful 10 day stay in this beautiful condo! There truly isn't a better condo at this resort ~ the furniture/decor within is lovely & the location/patio is the best! We stayed in another condo at this resort last year which was poorly maintained. The Daniels' take such great care to make you feel welcome and at home. We are already planning our stay for 2010. |

Thanks so much for your email and the return of the deposit. We really had a great time staying at your place. We knew your ad mentioned that it was close to the beach, and you weren't kidding! The hammock was also great touch. I wish we could have stayed longer, but if my wife and I ever head back to St Thomas, we will definitely check to see if your place is available. Thanks so much for providing a comfortable and very clean place for us to stay!
Warm regards,
Andy & Natasha Sexton

| Without a doubt this is the best unit on the best beach in St Thomas. The condo is beautifully furnished, very comfortable and has every amenity. It's location on the resort is terrific because it sits in the center of the property with walk-out access to the two beaches and the pool (great for keeping the cocktail refreshed). The one beach has a beautiful reef for snorkeling right off-shore. There's lots of shade under the seagrape trees. The other beach has wonderful views of St John and other islands as well as great sunrise views for early risers. We also loved having the marina so close. We took several excursions from the marina (snorkeling in St John, a four-island cruise, a fishing trip and parasailing). It was nice to be able to walk there and not to have to take the car. Easy access to Red Hook and its shops and restaurants was also a plus. We very much appreciated Rosanne and Darrell's readiness to answer all our questions and inquiries. They were very helpful. Our two weeks in paradise came to an end much too quickly, but when we return it will be to this lovely spot. |

My son and I just returned from St. Thomas and I am happy to say we had the best vacation ever! My expectations were exceeded above and beyond anything I had imagined, which is a five star compliment in my book! Your condo's location on Sapphire Beach is perfect! We were the envy of many of the guests there who would stop and ask how we managed to get the best condo on the beach! It truly is in the best location on the resort. The pool and beach are just steps away, and the views are amazing from every possible angle. The pictures on the website of your condo and Sapphire Beach were lovely, but in no way do justice to how beautiful it really is there. Aside from the panoramic views, we were so pleased with the condo itself. It was perfect!! Everything was so clean, fresh and up-to-date. We were so comfortable there, and it really felt "homey"...i t is decorated beautifully, well-designed and had everything we needed. There was enough space to store all of our things, so it was easy to keep it uncluttered and clean..
Staying at your condo on Sapphire Beach was THE perfect vacation! We spent our days enjoying the beautiful beach, snorkling, and meeting new friends, and the breezy evenings in the warm pool or just beachcombing, and then going back to the condo for a homecooked meal and a movie or a game(great movie and board game selection, too!!).
We ventured out only a few times and even rented a car one day to exploer the island, but is wasn't long before we both wanted to go "home" to our perfect spot..the pool..the beach. For us, there was no need to be anywhere else. Everything we came for was right there!
I want to thank you again, Rosanne, for your hospitality and for being so accomodating! I hope this will be first of many stays at your island paradise home. Peggy and Matthew Weimar |

| All we can say is AMAZING! Rosanne & Darrell were extremely helpful and friendly throughout the entire process. We felt very prepared for our trip to St. Thomas. The condo was very clean, beautifully decorated (loved the spa-like shower), well stocked with needed and bonus items, and in a prime location on the resort. The hammock was a wonderful bonus that made others jealous! The views from the unit were unbelievable...almost a full 180 degree view of paradise! Wonderful snorkeling was steps away from the condo. A highlight was swimming with the sea turtles! Another bonus was the location on the island...we liked being away from the craziness of Charlotte Amalie and close to the ferries in Red Hook. We had such a great time exploring St. Thomas and the surrounding islands. We would highly recommend this unit and the owners! Thanks again!! |

My husband and I were in St. Thomas for a wedding. Everyone else stayed at the Wyndham. We heard many complaints about the Wyndham (rooms weren't that nice). We think this condo was nicer than the Wyndham, and at a better rate! Plus, the condo is clean, nicely decorated, has all amenities and is the PERFECT location. This unit is the best one at Sapphire Beach since you have a view of both beaches, and a view of St. John. Being right in front of the pool made it easy to relax at the pool, but run into the condo if we needed something. We loved the wrap around patio where we had our morning coffee and afternoon cocktails. The hammock was put to use in the afternoon. We preferred a unit on the ground level so we could open the sliding glass doors and step directly onto the beach. The location of Sapphire Beach is perfect since Red Hook is nearby and the ferry to St. John is in Red Hook. Overall, we were extremely pleased with the condo, its location, and the value for our money. Also, the owners were very helpful with restaurant tips etc. before we left! We would definitely recommend this condo!

| This was truly a vacation for us. The condo was absolutely lovely, and the azure water and sky surrounding us were beyond description! You don't even have to leave Sapphire Beach to enjoy swimming, snorkeling, or just relaxing in the sun. We saw sea turtles, rays, and all sorts of tropical fish while snorkeling, and gorgeous flora, birds and lizards while walking. There is no problem getting transportation to towns. The owners are also wonderful, having taken the time to ensure that everything is set up for you to enjoy a slice of paradise. Just writing these comments makes me long to return! Best wishes, Jeanine |

We thought your condo had the best location! We really liked the fact that it was an end unit because of the extra light from the slider and windows. The outside lounges and hammock were well used!
The Dive shop was very helpful and courteous in setting up the chairs and providing the snorkeling equipment. The snorkeling was super! Great coral reefs with a wide variety of fish - and close to shore so their didn't need to be a strong swimmer.
We did lose electricity and water for a short while - no big deal or inconvenience.
We were disappointed that we were not able to "walk" to Red Hook. Since it was a short distance, we had planned to walk into town for dinners, but the road was too dangerous.
Overall, we had a fantastic few days in paradise to break up the CT winter! |

I had the most wonderful time staying at your condo, wish I could have stayed longer, and will most definately return.
I visited friends during the 8 days I was on the island, and had opportunity to compare Sapphire Beach with other locations (from hilltop retreat to expensive resort). Your condo at Sapphire Beach was my favorite.
One of my fondest memories is waking up early one morning to a light rain and a cool breeze. I brewed some coffee, sat on the patio and just relaxed. Oh, how peaceful.
Of course, the sunny days spent discovering the beach, and snorkeling, were wonderful, too.
Thanks again!

| All we can say is.....wow! We are so glad we chose to rent this condo from Rosanne and Darrell. The place is even better than advertised....so comfortable and well maintained. The location and the views are spectacular, and the beach was amazing! We will be returning to Sapphire Beach and renting this condo again! |
