Tranquil Shores - Resort, Sapphire Beach 10' from 1st Floor Patio Oceanside Pool

Step right off the patio onto white sand beaches from this building D, ground floor condo, situated just steps from Sapphire Beach Resort's oceanside pool, on a point extending into the Caribbean Sea. Enjoy the feel of a small, local resort, all necessities beachside within the community, and the pleasantly surprising convenience to the many restaurants, shops and adventures of St. Thomas' East End.

We were delighted to find sea turtles just off the beach and an easy ferry to the countless trails and beaches of St. John, but maybe you'll love the night life of Red Hook or Charlotte Amalie. The adventure is yours to choose! Welcome to Tranquil Shores!

THE SPACE
This condo's design is reminiscent of a morning stroll along the beach, discovering low tide treasures. Within Sapphire Beach Resort & Marina, its location is the perfect base for a couple eager to step into the ocean or snag prime lounge chairs, or for a family that loves easy access and line of sight to the pool.

The open design of this studio Suite provides an unobstructed view toward the turquoise Caribbean Sea kissing the white sands of Sapphire Beach whether you’re waking up in the king-sized bed, pouring coffee in the kitchen, lounging on the couch, or sitting out on the patio, listening to the waves lap the shore! Consider an easy visit to St. John, and several British Virgin Islands that enhance the horizon.

Slide open the balcony doors to create your own indoor/outdoor living space and bask in the panoramic view of the ocean to your right or the sparkling ocenside pool to your left. Open the front door as well to take advantage of fresh easterly breezes passing through. Our bar-top table, looking out toward the beach, is a comfortable work or dining area, and premium cable channels are provided, as well as multiple streaming services available for personal login.

Sleep soundly on the king-sized mattress, cooled by ceiling fans in addition to central air. You’ll enjoy the fully tiled shower, double sinks, and tiled floor of the bath. The living room sofa bed sleeps two more upon request. Our kitchen boasts light wood cabinets, stone countertops, stainless sink, full size refrigerator and above range microwave, as well as a full-size electric cooktop. A single-pot coffee maker, blender, and toaster are also provided.

Our building generator gives peace of mind, because it kicks on in just ten seconds or less when the island’s (WAPA) power grid goes down and could support us for a couple of days if need be. We haven’t seen a WAPA outage last longer than several hours ourselves.

If you're traveling with a large party, we own three more condos in building B, Tropical Tide & Ocean Breeze studios on the 2nd floor and Coral Vista, a more spacious Villa condo on the 3rd floor! See links to those listings below for the option to stay close and work with a single host.

The Marina:
is also just steps down the beach, where you can rent boats or book charters for snorkeling and exploring the beaches of St. John or the BVIs. Rent jet-skis, go parasailing, and try other watersports! Local bonus: boats returning to the marina at dusk may sell their fresh catch to you.

The On-Site Coin Laundry Room:
is in the module to the left (north side) of the marina. Tokens for washer/dryer, and detergent, can be purchased 7:30am-3:00pm in the Dockmaster’s Office, next door in the same module.

In our experience, tokens cost $4 each; cost is one token to wash and wash betaken to dry. Washer takes 35 min, and dryer takes 45 min. All of this is subject to change at resort management’s discretion.

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
Remember, we also own three more condos in building B, two Studios on the 2nd floor, Tropical Tide & Ocean Breeze, and a more spacious villa, Coral Vista, just above on the 3rd-4th floor! If you're traveling with friends, rent all four condos to sleep up to 12, maintain privacy when you choose and simplify by working with a single host rather than several.
