About this property

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.

This property was perfect for our quick stay. Sapphire offers restaurants, pools, and the beach for those who do not want to rent a vehicle. Plus it is only a quick and inexpensive taxi to Red Hook for groceries or dining out. Michael was wonderful in responding quickly to any questions we had and assuring we had a pleasant stay.

Our stay at The Captain and the Mermaid was great. Communication with Michael was the best I’ve ever had. He was prompt and very helpful each time. The condo had beautiful views from the windows. It was clean and equipped with everything we needed. So nice to have beach towels and beach chairs. A pool right near us. If you don’t have a car you need to not mind hiking up and down to get to beach. Restaurants near condo were all great.

The condo was the perfect size for my spouse & I. When we arrived it was easy to get in, clean and well maintained. The drunk octopus’s made me laugh. Sapphire Beach is beautiful and very walkable from the condo, but we are older, so the hills to get to the beach were too challenging for us to walk. Good thing we rented a car. The host was very welcoming & communication was excellent.

Clean and spacious place. Easy check-in with quick communication. We appreciated being close to the beach. It is a steep hill to/from the apartment to get to the beach and restaurants for those that may have mobility issues. Would recommend for those wanting to have beach access and be close to the Cruz Bay ferry.

Came to stay for 2 nights with my adult son who lives in Tortola. This condo had everything we needed to enjoy our time together on the beach without the hassle. Restaurants were close by and easy taxi service to the airports and ferry. The condo was clean and spacious. Will definitely be returning.

About the host

Hosted by Michael Harper

Host profile image
Fun loving family that has found our second home in St. Thomas. We enjoy too many hobbies that range from playing with the our own and the neighborhood kids, to scuba diving, snorkeling, to biking on and off road, Rock climbing kayaking and lots of other adventures that we seem to stumble into as we enjoy our days.

Why they chose this property

We enjoy traveling to lots of places in the Caribbean and seem to find ourselves returning time and again to St Thomas. We fell in love with the beautiful Virgin Islands. Sapphire beach offers the best snorkeling and beach combo in our opinion. The location being so close to Red Hook make it ideal. When we found this property we were pleased and felt we couldn't pass it up and would like to make it available to others to enjoy as much as we plan to.

What makes this property unique

Excellent views, amazing snorkeling, close to the beach while able to enjoy the sea breezes since the building is located up on the hill. The amenities are enough to keep you happy while still making you want to venture out and see what else the island has to offer.
