The condo was great ... it met our needs to enjoy some time on the beach in St. Thomas and gave us easy access to Red Hook, where we were taking a few boat trips out of. The view from the deck was spectacular and we enjoyed coffee each morning sitting out there ... looking at the water, marina and the various islands. The condo itself was clean, it was a little dated and the finishing touches were not there ... as the kitchen was dated with a cabinet door missing. The refridgerator leaked each morning .. and was definitely dated. But none of that got in the way of a great vacation. We'd recommend ..and Sudi's, literally right outside was a great way to start and end each day .. great people, great food and the pool deck was perfect.

Beautiful view, which was the main reason we liked this place. Also the location is very convenient and the price was fair. The place could be so much better with a little tlc. Update the kitchen appliances and cabinets. Put in a bigger, more comfortable bed. Just update a bit and this would be a gem.

The view from the balcony was super. It overlooked the yachts in the sloops and we could see clearly all the way to St. John Island. It was about a 10-minute walk to the beach, but it kept us in better shape as we could walk off some of the delicious meals we ate at the beach restaurant, Sea Salt, and the ice cream at Beach Buzz. Our room was not a really steep walk, but there were some above us that would have been a real pain to walk up the steep hills to the room. The upper pool had a great view, but it would be almost impossible to walk to and especially from the beach.

The property is outdated and in need of some repairs. Our biggest concern was the lack of internet and TV. We did reach out to Terrance and finally had access to internet, but never got TV. The property's best feature is the great view!

Condo was a great location for our winter trip. Easy to get to Sapphire beach or hang out at the pool it was all we could have asked for. Condo has everything you could need or want, has plenty of stuff for a beach day as well. Would stay here again for sure.

Great stay. Pool and restaurant/bar extremely close, few feet away. View from balcony is great. Sapphire beach is amazing with best snorkeling on island. The beach is walkable but much better to drive(less than 1 minute drive up and down hill). Red hook for restaurants, groceries, and ferry to St Johns is 3 min drive. Great location

Great Condo Overlooking the Marina

The condo was very clean and very accurate as described on the VBRO website. The 1st night the power went out. I contacted Terrance and he responded right away. Apparently, St. Thomas has rolling power outages at various times each day. Power went out several times during our stay at several other locations, i.e., St. Johns, restaurants and shopping. That's Island Life! We truly enjoyed our stay.

The property met our needs! It is dated and in need of some TLC but was clean and well stocked. Bed was comfortable. Best part of this unit is its location, Steps from the restaurant and pool, close to the office, short walk to the beach. We had an amazing week diving, driving around the island, visiting St. John. We would stay here again.
