About this apartment rental
The Sea Worthy was fully updated in 2024 and is located on the 2nd floor facing the breezy side of Sapphire Beach in Building D. Wake up to sunrise views of St. John and listen to waves crashing as the sun goes down in the evening. The condo is just steps from the beach and pool. Sapphire Beach has good snorkeling, especially as you head toward & follow Pettyklip Point. There is a fair amount of shade for anyone that needs it and plenty of Caribbean sunshine for the rest of us.
We have options for breakfast, lunch and dinner at Sapphire Beach all next to the A Building. The Beach Buzz coffee shop serves breakfast sandwiches, bagels, muffins and smoothies. They have incidentals for purchase and they offer a free book exchange. Sapphire Beach Bar is open daily through early evening serving drinks, burgers, sandwiches, fish tacos and more. Paradise Pie serves pizza and salads until 8PM daily. Sea Salt is the upscale dinner option. It is a beautiful open air roof top restaurant with views of St John and Tortola located right on Sapphire Beach.
The Sapphire Marina has charter companies that offer fishing and boating trips. Ice is available for purchase at the Marina Office, as well as a token operated laundry facility (Cash, credit/debit cards accepted). The condo is located just one mile from Red Hook & offers a wide range of eating options, bars, shops, groceries and other services including the Ferry Terminal.
Although Red Hook is just a mile up the road, we recommend getting a car for part, if not all, of your stay so you can explore the island at your own pace. It is easy to navigate, "look right, drive left"! St. Thomas offers many dining options, outdoor activities, beautiful beaches & sightseeing opportunities for everyone. There is no additional fee for parking during your stay. Passports are also recommended if you plan to take a day trip to the British Virgin Islands.
The condo has a full kitchen with a range, microwave & refrigerator with ice & water plus everything you need to prepare and serve meals. The full bath has a large walk-in shower with pebble floor, dual under mount sinks, a full-size hair dryer, a mini flat iron and ample storage. Pack up the cooler & beach towels & head out for a fun day at any of the beaches, everything you need is available. The condo has an electronic safe, two ceiling fans, wi-fi, cable tv, iron, ironing board and CENTRAL AC.
We offer our guests an OPTIONAL additional linen service (bed linens, bath towels and beach towels) during your stay, additional fees apply.
If you need a shorter stay please inquire, we will try to accommodate you if possible.

My mom and
I wanted a vacation together and neither of us had ever visited St. Thomas. This was the perfect
Place to stay! Great
Location to beach and pool. We had a great time and plan to come back soon! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

We visited St. Thomas for our daughter’s wedding. The location was perfect and our condo was very nice. Kelli communicated with us regarding rolling power outages on the island which was very helpful. Thank you for a wonderful stay and we look forward to visiting the US Virgin Islands again.

The Host failed to mention the frequent power outages at the resort. The electricity was off and on for 2 days until we finally decided to leave the Condo and get a room at Margaritaville down the road so we could get some sleep with air conditioning. The host refused compensation even tho she admitted that the frequent power outages had been omitted from the listing. I will definitely book with a hotel from now on as they mostly have generators and are on a different power source.

This beautiful property was the perfect place for my husband and myself. The condo is clean and well stocked with everything you need to feel like home. The view of Sapphire Beach from the balcony is amazing and a great spot when you're ready to sit down for a minute. Red Hook is half a mile away so it's super convenient for grocery stores, restaurants and the ferry to St. John. The property is about 30 minutes from the airport. We would definitely stay here again.

This was a great spot for us to stay. The room was clean, had everything we needed, bed was comfy and a/c worked great. Lost power a couple times temporarily (not unusual for the island) but still you have things around you for eating and always the beach! We went to St. John all but one day of our stay and being close to the ferry was GREAT for us. Taxis readily available. We are planning our next trip with our kids! Thank you for such a wonderful stay!

We booked James and Kelli’s condo because we loved the location! Once we arrived, it exceeded our expectations. The space was clean, the kitchen was well stocked with all the utensils you would need, and the view was absolutely breath taking! It was nice to have restaurants, a coffee shop, and a boutique all on the grounds. I was recommending this to my friends and family before we even left! Thank you so much for sharing your space with us!

This property is all around amazing! Everything is new and updated and the view from the balcony is so beautiful and relaxing. The location is within walking distance to the beach and to the restaurants and cute coffee shop. The owner was very responsive and communicative throughout the entire stay. I will definitely look to stay here again if I return to St. Thomas :-)

We really enjoyed our stay. The property is kept very nice and our place was very nice everything’s new in the house appliances, king size bed, kitchen, and bathroom are new as well. Our host has been very kind and has had everything here we needed for our stay.
4.0 / 5.0
The process to access the unit was quite easy. The unit had everything we needed to have a comfortable stay with fully equipped kitchen, quality linens, additions like a safe, cooler, sand chairs, snorkel gear, all available. The photos actually don't do the listing justice, it was all renovated and very clean. (I am very picky about clean!). The location overlooked the pool, which had a better view out to St John than building A, B, C or E. Honestly, I think building D is the best option. The Sapphire Beach "Resort' had probably the most accessible and best snorkeling we experienced. The 'resort' is not exactly in the best shape since there have been 2 devastating hurricanes within 5 years, and since a significant drought. So it was not exactly a lush green property and sandy beach area along the water is not spacious, so go out there early. The restaurants are fairly good, the Sea Salt was expensive, but if you want great seafood, it is worth the cost vs cabbing to a different location. The pizza place had a great chicken pesto option. Bar is a good spot to people watch, and little coffee shop had good breakfast items and some sundries. Very convenient to book sailing excursion with the Sapphire marina next to building E. Great location, very nice stay. I just personally have been to islands that the island itself was nicer.

Sapphire Beach was great, but this unit was even better! It is perfectly set up with everything you would possibly need for your stay. Lots of ice trays, a beach chair, snorkeling gear, two ceiling fans, and an A/C Unit that works wonderfully! Kelli & James were super responsive as well which was fantastic! We were in heaven and if we have the chance, we are coming back with our kids! Thank you for being such amazing hosts!!! Rob & Andi

Everything was great and perfect for my husband and I to enjoy a nice relaxing vacation. We loved sitting outside on the balcony which had the most beautiful views and sunrises. Communication was great and we would definitely stay again in the future.

Super happy with our stay! Super clean and it looked just like the pictures. It had everything we needed and then some. The balcony faces the pool but it never got rowdy or loud at all. The pool was so nice and someone was out there every morning taking care of it. The view was perfect and red hook was a 5 minute drive. Highly recommend this location

The property is great! Has what you need, comfy bed and a great location! Everything you might want is just a few minutes away walking. Beach, snorkeling, beach bars and restaurants, coffe shop with awesome breakfast sandwiches and a couple little shops. Definitely plan on going again.

This property was amazing. The sapphire community has everything you need. On-site coffee/breakfast/lunch/dinner options, a nice pool and an amazing beach. The view from this unit is beautiful and we really enjoyed watching the sunrise in the mornings. It's on the quieter side of the resort which was really nice. We wanted to explore a lot and visited 12 different beaches during our stay. Sapphire Beach was one of our favorites and staying at this property made it so convenient to enjoy. The unit has everything you need to make most meals and is very comfy overall. We had no issues during our stay and would not hesitate to book again in the future.

Everything was even better than what was described and pictured. The condo was very clean and fresh. The kitchen had everything we needed to do some cooking instead of going out all the time. We were able to buy some fresh salmon with our groceries at the Cost U Less for a couple of nice dinners in the condo. This is the second time we have stayed at Sapphire Beach and it is our favorite place to be on the island. We had ample linens. The bathroom was very nice with two separate things on the vanity. Nice, updated fixtures all around. We appreciated that the condo was cleaned with unscented cleaners because of my chemical sensitivities. This unit is very accessible from the parking lot with just a few steps up to the room. Super convenient! We had such a lovely stay, and we wish we could come back every year. Thank you for a lovely time and allowing us to use your home away from home.

Thank you Kelli & James for opening up your condo to us! Wow was it an amazing trip, we’ve had some great and not-so-great VRBO properties in the past but this condo is everything from the posting and more! The view over the pool and ocean was magnificent - we had everything we needed right in the condo. The coffee shop on site was a great way to start the day and then the bar food/pizza spot was a great, quick lunch option! The snorkeling off the beach was beautiful. Red Hook ferry port and all the restaurants are just minutes away so it was the perfect location! We cannot wait to come back and stay here again hopefully!

This property is truly amazing. The unit was clean and well equipped with everything that we needed. It’s close to grocery stores and dining. We enjoyed going into Red hook which is only a 5 minute ride away. The beach in front of the restaurant and bar area is gorgeous. The food, drinks and staff there were great. The pool is also very nice. We are looking forward to our next trip staying here!

Wonderful Stay
My husband and I came for an anniversary stay. Room was beautiful and clean. The resort had great food in the coffee shop, bar area, and pizza place. Enjoyed sitting on the beach and floating in the water while my husband snorkeled. Only one mask in the snorkel gear out of 2 was able to be used due to a broken strap, but other than that the stay was perfect. First trip in a long time that I was not ready to go home. Already planning to bring our family of 5 back next year. Just have to find a bigger unit!

Celebrating 25 in the VIs
My husband and I spent five of our 10 nights in the Virgin Islands at Seaworthy. This condo is in a great location to catch ferries and boat trips from Red Hook, five minute drive, tops. We did love being that close to RedHook when we came across from Saint John, and took our boat taxi over to Lovango for dinner. However, personally we did not love the vibe of Red Hook. There were quite a few restaurants there and a grocery store which was definitely a perk. Sapphire Beach was fairly crowded while we were there from June 25-30, and a wedding on the beach almost everyday (which was fun to see). There was a lot of seaweed during our stay so we never actually got in the water at Sapphire. Please note this is not always the case, depends upon the time of year you are staying.
As it was stated in several other reviews, the pool area has a ton of potential, but currently has two structures in dire need of demolition or restoration. The landscaping around the entire resort could also use a little TLC. That being said, if you are looking for a well appointed Condo with a spacious bathroom, comfortable bed, and a balcony with a beautiful sunrise view, this condo is for you! A pool float, beach mat, cooler, and snorkel equipment is available for guests, but no Beach chairs or umbrella. Lounge chairs are available on the beach at Sapphire, but we spent our days checking out other beaches and it would have been perfect to have a couple of beach chairs to throw in the back of the jeep and take with us. Not a necessity, just a nice added touch.
If you are looking for a few things to put on your to do list, we would highly suggest the dinner or day at Lovango (open Jan-mid July), stop by St. John brewery taproom, have breakfast at Gladys, and shop for jewelry at Imperial Dynasty, all in Charlotte Amalie. The fish tacos at the beach bar and restaurant on property are amazing, and Italian dinner at Pesce in Red Hook was outstanding! Spending a day in Saint John is highly recommended, either by taking the people ferry, car ferry, or even a snorkel excursion that takes you to Mahoe to swim with the sea turtles.
One thing to note, we did go to Megan‘s bay, which was nice, but pay attention to the cruise ship schedule!! We were there on a Wednesday With about 1500 other people, mostly coming by open air taxis from their cruise ships. Might want to reserve this one for a Monday or Thursday.

Perfect Piece of Pardise!
No need to look any further! THIS stay provides it all! 100% recommend!
Great location, wonderful relaxing views and everything you need throughout the suite and more! Spotlessly clean and welcoming on arrival. Ideal location close to Red Hook for evenings out, or if preferred, options right on property for dining in. (Note: On-site resturants and bars do close at 6pm).
Only disappointment, but completely out of hosts control, swim up bar at the property pool (directly outside of suite) is not presently operating (does not seem to have for some time). Honestly, really does not deter though at all as you can easy pack your own choices of drinks/snacks in the provided cooler. Just fyi as was surprised to find out on arrival.
5 stars all around. Kelli and her team are great hosts!

Absolutely Amazing
With a comfortable drive from the airport to the condominium up the coastline only about 25 minutes the views were breathtaking. Once at the condominium you are on the second floor and, the balcony view overlooking the pool with an ocean and St. Thomas as a back drop is absolutely outstanding. The condominium was outstanding from the enjoyable bed, roomy bathroom and, shower. A unforgettable and enjoyable balcony view that never gets old. Outstanding job on the black folder that gives you a great description of what is available and what to expect at different hot spots. From the condominium it’s a short drive less than 10mins. to Red Hook where you can catch the ferry to St. John’s and enjoy amazing beaches. Or stay in Red Hook and enjoy restaurants, shops and, local bars. We had an amazing time at this place this condominium and definitely will be booking it again!

Sapphire Beach Seaworthy Stay
My wife and I had a great time during our stay at Seaworthy. Beautiful views of Thatch, Mingo, Grass, Lovango Cays as well as St John Island. The room was clean and generously stocked with about everything we needed. Loved that Snorkel gear was available because there are reefs within walking distance to explore. Will definitely stay here again.
