About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Captain and the Mermaid - Adventures in Paradise are waiting!

Envision your feet in the white sand, watching the many shades of blue Sapphire Beach has to offer. How will you spend your day? Playing with the fish and turtles on the reef at Sapphire Beach? Parasailing or jet skiing? Taking a charter to the BVI? Catching the ferry from Red Hook to St. John? Its all convenient from from "The Captain and the Mermaid" condo at Sapphire Beach, St. Thomas.

We invite you to share our piece of Paradise. We fell in love with St. Thomas because of the beautiful water, breathtaking scenery, fun atmosphere, and great people. We found that St. Thomas was our favorite vacation destination and kept going back year after year. We even got engaged and married on island. Our hope is that you too will fall in love with St. Thomas like we did.

"The Captain and the Mermaid" is a studio condo located at award winning Sapphire Beach in the gated Sapphire Village Condominiums. Our condo is located up the hill on the parking lot level (no stairs needed). Sapphire Village has 2 pools onsite and a restaurant/bar. Sapphire has its own watersports/dive shop located at the beach, a marina with charters, and is conveniently located a mile away from Red Hook on the East End of St. Thomas. Red Hook hosts a variety of restaurants/bars, shopping, ice cream shop, a grocery store and the ferry dock to help you island hop.

We have a sister condo VRBO number 1562495 that also sleeps 2, it is two doors down from this condo. If you're traveling with more people and looking for something close please take a look.

We lived The Captain and the Mermaid. It was everything we needed for a short stay, but would also work for a longer visit. It’s close to many things (beaches, restaurants, stores, etc in Redhook) and well appointed. Michael is a great host and responds lightning fast to any questions you may have. A great experience and we will return next time in St Thomas.

Short and most peaceful stay

I had the opportunity of being connected with the Harper Family and their beautifully decorated octopus home not only was everything exactly as described, but. I promise you will NEVER regret having a few nights in Sapphire Beach. Many blessings, -Justina

We loved staying here at this property and the host was very nice! It was super clean and beautiful! It had everything we wanted and the view was an absolute dream!! I highly recommend you book with them. It will be worth it. Just an fyi, it does sit on a steep hill. Most of the area does, so if you don’t rent a car beware that your calf’s will be made of steel by the end of your trip.

Mini moon

We did a quick mini moon after getting married and in between moving! It was the perfect quiet location, but with lots to do. We rented a car because liked being able to see different parts of island! It is a great location where if you will just stay local you don’t need a car and a taxi will do the trick! We absolutely loved it and look forward to coming back soon
