About this property

Corner Suite "Glass House on the Sea" Modern Luxury on Sapphire Beach

Glass House on the Sea is a spectacular beachfront, luxurious large corner unit condo with a clean, modern design. Glass House is the only unit in Sapphire Beach Resort without another building right next to and that gives you unrivaled privacy. The extra-large wrap around balcony with an additional set of slider doors and a window by the bed offers more space and light. Your front balcony is just 20 steps from the ocean, overlooking the Virgin Islands Archipelago while the side balcony overlooks our picturesque Marina. Glass House is perfect for couples, honeymooners and guests who appreciate privacy and higher end accommodations. Glass House has a constant breeze blowing from the ocean that gives you an option to cool the unit with just wind - just open the sliders! The second floor delivers better views and the privacy from anyone walking on the beach as well as the security to sleep with the sliding doors open to the breeze if you prefer that over the air conditioning. You can fall asleep hearing the waves crashing on the beach and wake up to the most beautiful sunrise you have ever seen with St. John and The British Virgin Islands framing your view. And in the morning, enjoying your coffee on your balcony will make you feel as you are floating on your own super yacht on the Caribbean Sea. You could not be any closer – you can smell the ocean air and hear the waves land on the beach. And, since the sun clocks around the building on the right side - it lets you indulge in the late afternoon light long after other units lose their sunlight. That means a longer day for sunbathing on the chaise lounge or enjoying your cocktail in a comfortable arm chair admiring the view and the beach.
The modern, yet cozy and inviting décor of the remodeled suite will provide you with the most comfort you would expect from any luxury accommodations. High-count linens and fluffy towels will only add to your indulgent stay. A fully equipped kitchen with new countertops, backsplash and full sized refrigerator/freezer, keurig K-Duo Single Serve & Carafe Coffee Maker (simply choose your favorite ground coffee or you favorite k cup pod), utensils and various glasses to suit your choice of libations will be at your disposal.
Stretch out and lounge on a comfortable, large, brand new sectional sofa while listening to the waves. Read a book or watch a movie on cable or stream free Netflix on a large flat screen TV - or enjoy free fiber Wi-Fi. Step outside and find yourself on the beach – great snorkeling is right in front of you or just use a lounge chairs provided by the resort and enjoy the seaside. The turquoise crystal-clear swimming pool, overlooking the sea, is a short stroll to your left. Stop at the Marina and see what fresh fish they caught that day and take some to the condo to grill and enjoy on your balcony with a glass of chilled wine. Go for a boat ride with any of the charter companies located at the Marina’s resort to your right. Or simply take a stroll after dinner around the marina and look at the pretty yachts.
Sapphire Beach Bar - a part of our Sapphire Beach Resort is located down the beach by A Building. They serve great drinks, sandwiches and fresh Mahi Mahi burgers. They have beach service, so you can order a drink without leaving your lounge chair! Beach Bar is a fun stop to enjoy great music, crowd watching and beach gazing. A coffee and ice cream shop, The BeachBuzz and a pizza and mojito bar, Paradise Pie, are all a few minutes walk right at Sapphire Beach. Where else would you want to grab a breakfast sandwich, a delicious smoothie or a specialty coffee but right at the beach! Lunch with a gourmet pizza and a specialty cocktail is also a must while visiting. Beautiful views at the all new upscale restaurant, SeaSalt, is a must with ocean-centric dining and a commitment to fresh, sea to table fare. A true example of water front dining! Within a short walking distance to the right of E building, inside the Sapphire Village Complex - there is a new restaurant - Sudi's Caribbean Bar & Grille - with great food and awesome reviews on Trip Advisor!
Red Hook, a charming Nautical little town on the Harbor that offers grocery shopping and restaurants is only 4 minutes away and a $6 taxi ride (available at the taxi stand at our resort). Red Hook also has Ferries to St. John and the BVIs.
Upon booking I will be sending you a complimentary Welcome to Glass House guide with a local insight to St. Thomas, St. John and British Virgin Islands to help you plan your trip. Please look at more reviews and photos of the Glass House on our home page at GlassHouseOnTheSea.
Our Property Manager - Kathleen Browne is locally available to address any additional needs you might have during your stay at the Glass House on the Sea.

Just what we needed

It's been almost 10 years since my wife and I have taken a "real" vacation. This is exactly what we needed. We had every intention to tour around St. Thomas and the surrounding islands but we being here gave us no reason to leave.we will definitely be returning.

Awesome stay at Glass House on the Sea!

My wife and I sadly just returned home from a week at Glass House on the Sea. We absolutely loved it! The condo is well kept and very clean with all the amenities you could possibly need. The location was perfect in my opinion. It's not right at the main beach, but it's a short walk. The view is excellent. You are right next to the marina. It's fun watching the boats going in and out. Also, watching the pelicans land on them hoping to get a little of their catch of the day. You are on the corner. I highly recommend Billie's suggestion of opening the glass doors and letting the trade winds blow through the condo. There are few things more relaxing than that.Billie gives you so much great information, I really didn't have many questions. When I did, Billie always quickly responded. I would not hesitate to stay here again. Our vacation was perfect!

Best place ever at Sapphire Beach!

We enjoyed every minute of our vacation. First of all, Billie was an amazing host. The condo was clean and the balcony was heavenly. I would definitely recommend sailing for the day over to St. John, we chose Vi Sailing that leaves right out of Sapphire Marina. If you want a good meal, we loved Sea Salt, although pricey, the food was delicious. Thank you Billie for a great stay at St. Thomas!

Beautiful views!

We have stayed in Sapphire Beach three times now and this condo is definitely my favorite. The sliding glass walls make it feel so much bigger than the other units we have stayed in. It is also decorated perfect for the beach - simple but beautiful. Thank you for letting us enjoy your home for the week!

From the time we stepped in the front door we were in awe. The view is spectacular. The place had everything we could want and need. Next to the actual beaches, it was the next best thing. We will definitely be back and hopefully this place will be available.

A Breath of Fresh Ocean Air

The Glass House at Sapphire Beach is the perfect place to go if you need relaxation and rejuvenation! Views are breath-taking and you can hear the sound of the Waves as you fall asleep and as you wake up in the morning. it doesn't get any better than that!

Spring Break Trip.

The host were very helpful from the mi ute we booked amd answered many of our questions helping us plan our stay accordingly. We have stayed at Sapphire Beach many times, this is by far the most beautiful unit we have stayed in. Beautiful down island views as well as beautiful views of the marina. We enjoyed sitting on the deck late afternoon with a cocktail and watching the boats come in. It was also great being able to watch the fisherman come in and be forst in line for any extra fresh fish they may have! Everything was in perfect condition and very well appointed. Any help we needed while there, the host reaponded immediatly to help. This was our favorite stay, favorite location and great host. We will likely never stay in any other unit again when we visit!

Glass House was more than we expected. View from balcony is amazing! Condo has everything you need. Comes with snorkeling gear,beach towels, fridge, and coffee maker was nice. The pool and view from there incredible. The snorkeling there was awesome. Paradise Pie on beach there was really good. If you like pizza it's a must. If your looking for place in St. Thomas you can't go wrong with Glass House. We will be back.

Great views with ocean waves just steps away.

We had a great time at 'The Glass House on the Sea' Billie was available and close at hand to problem-solve and fix an issue we had. Maintenance was called and was on the scene in short order to remedy the problem. Thanks again, for your outstanding interior decorating of the condo taken together with the views of St.John make the unit hard to beat or duplicate. Ken & Louise

Beautiful Caribbean Oasis

This condo was absolutely wonderful. The condo was perfectly appointed with top notch appliances and finishes. The corner location was perfect in that it has an oversized balcony that faces the beautiful Sapphire Beach on one side and the marina on the other side. We sat on the balcony most of the time that we were at the condo, although the interior was also beautiful and spacious. The condo had everything we needed, including blender, coffee maker, fridge, freezer and air conditioning. We would absolutely go back.

Pure Perfection!

I can’t say enough about our stay - it was nothing short of perfect! The only problem was 6 nights was not long enough (I had finally gotten accustomed to driving on the left side of the road)!! The unit was 110% as described & shown in pictures and extremely well maintained and pristine! The owner a great communicator and provided helpful information about the area or suggestions for groceries, shopping, dining, etc. We loved the location of the unit on property as it was quiet and had more of a secluded feel. The balcony was perfect for our morning coffee, all the extras provided such as beach towels, chairs, floats, snorkeling gear, etc was all appreciated and put to use. The kitchen was well stocked! Outside of our stay at Glass House By The Sea, everything thing else was perfect too - weather, polite people, good food, strong drinks and beauty all around. Thank you, Billie, for allowing us to stay at your place and for making our first trip to St Thomas exceptional and memorable. We will definitely return!

Glass House on the Sea

The Glass House on the Sea is a picture-perfect condo. Located on the 2nd floor, corner, it provides a view of both the water and the marina. We loved having an extended patio and a 2nd set of sliding doors facing the marina. With the location on the 2nd floor, we felt very secure and left the sliding glass doors open at night to enjoy the sounds of the waves and the fresh air. The condo was clean and decorated very nicely. Building E is the quietist building since it is farthest from the beach. My husband and I have stayed at other condos at Sapphire Beach over the years and this location is definitely our favorite. We want to stay here again the next time we visit St. Thomas!

Best view on Sapphire Beach!

Beautiful condo, exactly as described! Fresh, new and up-to-date decor and furnishings. The view was phenomenal and the location was ideal. Just far enough away to be private and peaceful but only a 5-minute walk to all the wonderful Sapphire Beach amenities. The kitchen was equipped as well as my own home and we enjoyed many homemade meals. The owner provided everything we could possibly need from snorkeling equipment and beach chairs to extra towels and toiletries. The bed was as comfortable and big as our own at home and the balcony furniture was sturdy, comfy and the perfect height for maximizing the gorgeous views. We greatly enjoyed the incredible view of the sunrise while sipping our morning coffee. We would love to stay here again someday!

The Glass House was picture perfect

If you want a place that has it all then stay at the Glass House on the Sea in Sapphire Beach Resort and Marina. Billie is everything you could ask for in being the perfect hostess. She was very quick to respond to my 786 questions…lol!!! Gave great reviews on where to eat, trip suggestions, grocery shopping etc. Her condo was beautifully decorated and had every appliance and kitchenware you could ask for. She also had spices, cooking oil, coffee and filters. She even had toothpicks…now who has ever had toothpicks at a VRBO??? She also put a fabulous book together describing the area and all that included maps. Her condo is located righ next to a small marina where you have access to snorkeling, fishing and hang gliding trips. Plus, it’s only a few minute drive to Red Hook. As for the view from the Glass House who wouldn’t want to wake-up to the sun rising up over St. John right outside your sliding glass door and then walk out to your quiet balcony enjoying the sound of the waves and birds flying overhead. This is the kind of place that you cry at the end of your vacation because you have to leave but smile when you reminisce about how wonderful a time you had.

Why they chose this property

What makes GlassHouse on The Sea so unique is the location. Best area of Sapphire Beach - the quiet end, away from the main beach which is so close to walk to, yet so far not to see or hear crowds when you are relaxing on your balcony with a book or a cocktail. Unrivalved!

What makes this property unique

GlassHouse on The Sea - unit 209 E is the end corner suite of the E building, adjacent to the most beautiful marina in St. Thomas. You will not have another building right next to you, so you will have your day/night privacy. No need to cover the beautiful walls of glass! Building E is also the closest to the water edge, with no obstruction of your view!
