About this apartment rental

A UNIQUE COMBINATION OF COMFORT, TRANQUILITY AND ACTIVITIES!

When you dream of a tropical paradise, do you dream of a place where a white sand beach stretches out in front of you? Or of a world where the water is a kaleidoscope of turquoise and aquamarine hues?

If that’s your ideal vacation, then come enjoy our home while vacationing in Paradise! This spectacular 3rd and 4th floor condominium is located in the B-building directly on Sapphire beach, with breathtaking 180° views from each floor of the ocean and the neighboring islands (St John and British Virgin Islands). To us, this is the “Good Life” or “Bonne Vie”!

Just imagine...sitting back on one of the two private balconies enjoying your morning coffee (or afternoon cocktails) in a lush tropical setting listening to the calming sounds of the ocean lapping at the sand! As you sit looking out, you contemplate a dip in the water or a leisurely stroll down to the pristine beach, feeling the sugary white sand between your toes and admiring the incredible blue Caribbean water. All of this is located right in front of our home…we must warn you, you’ll have to pinch yourself or you'll think you've gone to heaven!

Our Condo…
We are proud to share our private paradise – Villa Bonne Vie - with you! Capture the splendor of the ocean within arms reach, as your worries and cares fade away. Our newly remodeled condo is tastefully set up as our home-away-from-home and comes complete for anyone to walk in and be more than comfortable.

The condo boasts floor-to-ceiling sliding doors that open onto two private balconies with awesome views of Sapphire Beach and the Caribbean. The condo is fully air-conditioned (separate controls on each floor) and completely furnished with cookware, luxury bed and bath linens, beach towels, some snorkeling equipment, and a cooler for your trips to other beaches.

On the main floor there is a living room with a Queen sleeper-sofa, dining area, large flat screen TV, cable, stereo w/iPod dock, renovated full bathroom, and a beautiful kitchen that has everything to make life easy – solid granite counter with breakfast bar, new wood cabinets with plenty of storage, microwave, smooth cook-top, refrigerator with ice-maker, toaster oven, blender, coffee-maker, espresso/cappuccino machine, and Belgian waffle-maker.

The top floor is the master bedroom suite with a second renovated full bathroom and a gorgeous ocean view to enjoy right from our comfortable King-size bed! If more sleeping space is needed, there is a Queen sleeper-sofa in the master suite sitting area. There is another flat screen TV and cable upstairs.

To make sure you’re connected to the outside world (if you want;), we offer Broadband Wi-Fi throughout the condo (that can accommodate multiple devices at one time), a large flat screen TV with cable on each floor.

We can arrange for pre-ordered grocery delivery – just let us know what you need.

Amenities at Sapphire Beach Resort and Marina…
You'll have no shortage of options as you plan your day. Go for a swim, nap on the sand, snorkel right off the beach, volleyball, parasailing, rent a Wave Runner, book a snorkeling tour or a deep sea fishing charter from the Sapphire Marina just steps away...the day is yours to relax and enjoy as you wish in the warm Caribbean sun...and that’s just at Sapphire Beach!!!

As part of your package, you'll have full use of the owner's chaise lounges on the beach and we provide some outside games, floats and noodles, and snorkeling equipment.

If you feel like something other than the beach, Sapphire also offers a multi-level cascading freshwater pool on the edge of the Caribbean Sea.

Saint Thomas…
We are blessed with one of the most pleasant climates in the world, which is kept comfortable year round by gentle trade winds – the average daytime summer temperatures are around 85° and 80° during winter months. The great thing is that Americans don’t need a passport – all of this beauty is part of the United States.

There are numerous options of things to see and do on St. Thomas and the surrounding islands, including the many beaches (the real gems of the Caribbean), shopping in Charlotte Amalie (each visitor can take up to $1,600 worth of duty-free imports), the restaurants, and excursions out of Sapphire Marina and Red Hook. Once you book your stay, we will send you our “Villa Bonne Vie Guest Guidebook” that provides information on our condo and suggestions on the island.

Whether you want to sample all of the Islands or just relax with family and friends, our condo offers it all. Relax and enjoy the comfort and ambiance of Villa Bonne Vie that is guaranteed to provide a good life and make you wish you never had to leave!

My husband and I stayed here for 8 nights. We didn't realize it was on the third floor, so we certainly got our steps in! Although the property is a bit older, it was comfortable. Contrary to some prior reviews, we didn't notice any smoky smell in the unit. During our stay, repairs were being done, and we also had a worker on the balcony, but I don't hold this against Christina. It was just unfortunate that repairs were being made on the building. The bed was somewhat firm and dated as was the comforter. In addition, I would recommend replacing the bath mat in the upstairs bathroom, as it was very small and worn out. On the positive side, the kitchen was well-equipped although there is no oven in the unit, just a stovetop and microwave. (But, who really wants to cook while on vacation?) I appreciate nice amenities in the places that we rent, and this unit could use some upgrades to justify the price. Christina was very responsive when we needed a new remote control for the TV. She had her housecleaner bring a new one to us the next day. Access to taxis is within walking distance. Pangea was our favorite quaint little covered outdoor restaurant that was close by and had great vibes and awesome food! The beef fajitas were amazing! The unit is very close to the ferry boat to take you to St. John. I would recommend this unit for a nice getaway!

Great location, beautiful view. HOWEVER- bed and both pullouts were terribly uncomfortable. Whole place smelled smoky and musty. We sprayed air freshener and used the many candles that were there, to no avail. Only 1 bath towel per person for a week long stay. Towels were very old and thin. We went out and bought our own. Walls were very thin and we could hear activities and conversations of people next to us. Repairs on building while we were there. Starting at 8am every day except Sat and Sun, there were workers banging on roof and people on/above our balcony. Opened bedroom curtains twice and found someone standing on our balcony. Went out a couple of times and someone was above the balcony looking down at us. Could not enjoy using balconies or leaving curtains open because of that. Not the relaxing vacation we had hoped for. We travel a lot and this is the first time we have EVER looked forward to leaving from our vacation. Would not choose to stay here again.

Everything at Sapphire Beach Resort was perfect even though a couple of our days there, the power was out. We drank rum cocktails and had fun snorkeling and hanging out on our deck and the beach. We will definitely be back and want to book with Christina again!!

My wife and I stayed here for our fifth wedding anniversary and had an amazing time. Views off of both balconies are great and short walk out to the beach where you can lay out, swim, and snorkel the reef. Onsite beach bar and restaurant are a plus as well. Short drive into red hook for dinner and night activities and for the ferry into Saint John (highly recommended). We will definitely be back for future trips!

This condo is lovely - beautifully decorated and updated. The views from the balconies are wonderful! We ate most of our meals there. Easy access to the beach with swimming and snorkeling. We didn't rent a car. There is a taxi stand on the property where someone was always available to take us wherever we wanted to go. I would definitely return to this property.

The views you can’t beat, or location. However, although the manager said it was the previous tenants to blame for the cigarette smell it was clear it’s bedded in the up and downstairs walls. There’s scented candles everywhere, plug ins & jelly like scented items to try to mask it. We also chose this property to utilize the “amenities” offered ie snorkel gear, to avoid renting. All the equipment was damaged and when we notified them we were told wasn’t their responsibility instead of replacing for our stay saying they can’t promise the condition they are in. When we asked for toilet paper because the longer stay, there was pushback “you said you still had some” instead of sure no problem. The bed was very firm & older. Sheets & comforter very old but seemed clean. On that note though, the kitchen was well equipped. Showers provided soap & shampoo/conditioner. Although the value seems very off, the view & location are worth it if the price was lowered or some of these items adjusted. We did love the beach & bar downstairs. I hope this property makes the appropriate adjustments because it’s a great property.

The condo was exactly what was listed . Very nice and clean condo. So glad it was a 2 story condo. Christine was wonderful to work. She gave a complete detailed welcome packet to make our visit perfect from suggestions on places to visit, boats tours, ferry, beaches, restaurants, grocery stores etc. Definitely helped since it was our first time to St Thomas. We had such a nice relaxing week. We cannot wait to come back and would definitely stay here again!
