Starfish Studio on Sapphire Beach / Crystal Cove

WE ARE BACK!!!! Finally after over 2 years of repairs from those darling Cat 5 Hurricane gals Irma and Maria we are ready to take rentals again. The property still has some repairs going on but the beach and the grounds are healthy again. Please come back and stay in our little bit of paradise. Relax on the beach, jump in our salt water pool, play tennis, go snorkeling, chill at the beach bar, take a day charter... endless possibilities await you.

New comers, we are a Studio Condo ON Sapphire Beach / Crystal Cove on the East End of St Thomas. The view from the condo and our beach is Jost Van Dyke, Tortola and St John. No car? NO problem... We are excited to also say that the Sapphire Beach is in FULL swing. Our beach has a Dive Shop (non motorized water sport and snorkel gear rentals), a coffee shop, food grill and a bar that has great entertainment RIGHT ON OUR BEACH! Our Neighbor complex has also reopened up their restaurant by their pool, Sudi's, which is a short walking distance from the condo. Other restaurants will so be back open again for Prime Season. Sapphire Marina is also in walking distance to our condo. There you can grab a boat charter for fishing, diving, snorkel, sunset sails, St John or BVI Trips (Passports required for BVI Trip), parasailing and Jet Ski rentals.

Jump on the safari or drive one mile down the hill and you will find the town of Red Hook. Red Hook has shopping, food market, restaurants, bars, night life, beauty salon, gambling, pharmacy, banks, Medical facility AND the ferry to St John and the BVI's. There is a passenger and car Ferry to St John. Red Hook also has Marina to grab boat charters as well.

Pack your bags!!!! Come sit and relax under the sea grape trees or explore our Island and her neighboring Islands.

Amazing Location
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The condo had pretty much everything you could need. And just a few steps away from the beach and from the beach bar and pizza place. We were so glad we chose to stay at this property as soon as we arrived and saw the hike of a hill to the Sapphire Beach Villa Condos! Loved the view also. The owner was easy to get a hold of and we had no issues! Hope to be back sometime!

Very nice
The property was very clean and close to beaches and restaurants. Just a few minutes from Redhook. No more than a 5 minute taxi ride. Taxi pickup is on the property and can usual just walk to the taxi pickup and not have to wait. Would definitely stay there again

Great place
Had a wonderful time here. The place was just as advertised and the proximity of the beach and a couple restaurants couldn’t be beat. The host was very helpful and responsive. Only downside is how difficult/dangerous it is to walk anywhere. Red Hook is only a 10 minute walk, however it can’t be done at night and should not be done by the faint of heart. It’s a shame everyone relies on car/taxi transportation when a simple sidewalk or walking path would be eminently reasonable and affordable.

Amazing adventure in paradise
This is our second time at this beautiful place, and we feel like it is home. Cheri is outstanding for providing all the information and little necessities we may need. The kitchen has everything one could possibly need and we enjoyed every minute at the resort. We snorkeled and walked the beach. We are adventurous and did day jaunts all over the island and st John. Cheri made sure we had everything we needed. I love that there are little essentials available that we didn't consider but were available. It is immaculately clean and lovely furnishings. Love this place, this host and this island! thank you so much.

Very nice property with amazing host
If you're looking for place to stay at Sapphire Beach in US Virgin Islands, look no further. Perfect location, just short walk to the beach with all the equipment provided. Very quiet with few people around. It was a great pleasure to meet our host Chery who was fast to respond to any questions . Some advice that she gave us as what beach would be best to go to for snorkeling were very much appreciated. Being very friendly and helpful she was easy to approach and communicate. The property itself had absolutely everything you would wish for worry-free stay at the resort. Books, TV with great choice of channels, games, snorkeling and swimming gear, all the household items that you have at your own home. Thank you Cheri for all the nice and pleasant hours of stay. We'll be definitely back.

Perfect location
We loved this location and home. It's minutes from Sapphire Beach and the house comes with everything you need from beach chairs to puzzles to beach towels. We loved being able to have bfast at this cute little coffee shop 2 min from our door then sit down at the beach and simply enjoy the views. The property owners provided excellent service and provided some great information about the area. We highly recommend staying here, the price, location, and customer service was great.

Lovely stay at starfish studio
The property was clean and comfortable. The location is very convenient for access to St. John and many beaches and restaurants. The property itself has a delightful well kept beach and swimming available. The waters were a bit cloudy for the Caribbean and we had some unexpected showers but that is beyond control of the owner.

Absolutely Beautiful!
The whole experience from renting, staying and departing was excellent! Communication with owner was above and beyond, very knowledgeable about the area and the best snorkling spots, spots to see turtles and the surrounding beaches! The condo is amazing and comfortable from the chairs/couch to the bed, never slept on a Murphy bed before but was super comfortable in my opinion. The whole experience was excellent! Will definitely be back, already looking for a time in Oct to possoblu

Nice Clean Comfortable Condo
Overall my stay at Starfish Studio was very nice. I was on St Thomas for business and stayed for 11 nights. The unit was clean, the bed was comfortable, the chairs and couch were clean and comfortable. The kitchen was nicely appointed, modern, clean and had everything you could need. Most people are probably not here to work, but the condo had a nice work space, strong wifi, and an awesome flat screen HDTV with Netflix. The location is great and even the drive to downtown Charlotte Amalie of 20 minutes each day was totally worth it. The grounds are very nice and it is a short (1 min) walk to the beach. Plenty of free beach chairs. The salt water pool is really nice and there are 2 newly resurfaced tennis courts. I think I read an earlier review that complained about the grounds and tennis courts being in bad shape. As of April 2017, the grounds are in great shape and look beautiful. Cheri is a great host was very responsive to any requests that I made for help or suggestions. Note that I never put the bed in the up position, there was plenty of room to move around and it is a real mattress, not something like a pull out sfoa

Great condo on the beach!
We stayed for 10 nights in May 2016 at the Starfish Studio and loved every minute. The location is great and the studio itself is beautiful. The floors, decor, kitchen, bathroom, everything is very updated and clean. The owner is very responsive and was able to promptly resolve a few small "hiccups" that arose during our stay. We loved our stay at Starfish Studio and would definitely recommend to others! We plan to go back. Thanks for the wonderful hospitality!

Starfish Studio
We just returned from St. Thomas. Can't wait to go again. The Starfish Studio was just great. It was everything we needed and so clean and comfortable. It was like a touch of paradise to be at the beach with St. John's so close by. The snorkeling was fun and we saw many turtles and sting rays. We rented a jeep so we could travel whenever we wanted. It's a little bit crazy driving on the wrong side of the road, but my husband adjusted quickly!! Looking forward to booking the same place again on our next trip.

Fantastic place to stay in paradise
Starfish Studio is the perfect place to stay for us year after year. It is beautifully decorated with a fantastic view of Sapphire beach which is located just yards away. We think it's one of the most beautiful beaches on St. Thomas. It is very close to all the fantastic resturants and shops in Red Hook and the ferry to St. John. This property has a pool and tennis courts and complimentary beach chairs. We are staying at Starfish Studio when we visit again in August. The owners are so accommodating and the maid service is a plus.

Great getaway from the cold North East :>)
Outstanding...this place is even more breathtaking than the pictures depict and do no justice to how serene, peaceful and scenic it truly is. The condo is up to date and had everything we could possibly need and more. It's obvious a lot of care has been taken to provide a wonderful stay and that's what we experienced. I just want to thank the the owners (Cheri & Carol Ann) for being so warm, consistent and accommodating from start to end. The customer service was wonderful and Norma's maid service always takes such good care of us. If you are considering the Starfish at Sapphire Beach, don't hesitate, let me tell you... you won't be disappointed. This was our 4th time and we definitely will be visiting again! Thanks for making this trip one of our favorites!!

We were extremely pleased with our February stay at the Starfish Studio. The property is beautifully renovated with an emphasis on aesthetics and functionality. The complex is gorgeously landscaped with a salt pond, flowering trees and bushes and a wonderful beach for swimming and snorkeling. We loved the location, quiet and peaceful yet convenient to Red Hook for restaurants and the ferries to St. John. The owners were quick to respond and very generous with tips and information. Thank You Carol & Cheri. We would love to stay at the Starfish Studio again!
