Great view

This place has a great view, with a nice casual restaurant and pool a very short walk. Sapphire beach was a bit of a walk with beach gear, but not too bad.

Quick stay

We arrived late afternoon and departed early the next morning for Red Hook Ferry. Great location and well kept unit. Enjoyed the beach (about a 10min trek up/down the hill) and Sudi's for dinner.

Amazing getaway

Had an amazing time here. The condo was nice and clean. The location is great if you’re comfortable with walking down and up steep inclines. The unit is close to Sudi’s restaurant just a quick 2 min walk. About a 5 min walk down to Sapphire beach. The host was very responsive and kind.

Wonderful stay

The location was great. Close to Red Hook, grocery store and many fabulous beaches. View was picturesque! Kitchen was nicely stocked. Loved that it had keurig, coffee pods, cream and sugar. Pool was steps away from our room. Host was quick to respond to any messages. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks for an amazing week!

Lovely place...would recommend

I was impressed with all of the amenities and the view. Very quiet, with comfortable beds and seating. My only suggestion would be to add some travel sized toothpaste and mouthwash:) Should have brought my own, but I forgot lol... Very nicely stocked kitchen! Great stay, will come back!

Beautiful and comfortable

We have stayed in this complex several times but Michael’s place was the best of all. So well equipped and set up we were working on a job while staying there and had good work space as well as a comfortable space to come “home” to at the end of a long day. We will book this lovely place again.

Perfect location - close to everything you need

This property was absolutely perfect for my stay on St. Thomas! The condo itself was clean, modern and cute. Beautiful view to wake up to every morning, and a great patio with a screen to keep out the bugs. Michael was great about communicating and helping me extend my stay. The property has been updated with a very nice bathroom. Location is amazing - multiple pools and a great restaurant (Sudi’s) on site. You can also use the Sapphire Resort just down the hill for the beach, restaurants and bars. Otherwise Red Hook is only a few minutes away for groceries, restaurants and the ferry. Several other beaches are very close as well. I would stay here again in a heartbeat, you’ll be lucky if this spot is available!

Perfect Spot - Wonderful Hosts!

We absolutely loved staying at The Mermaid’s Pearl. It turned out to be a pretty popular area, the local bar/pool had great food and drinks, and a handful of good options just in walking distance. The unit management team at the office were welcoming and helpful since we accidentally arrived WAY too early and needed to store our bags. The hosts were very kind and quick to respond, and the check in process was as smooth as one could be. Can’t beat the view on this place, either! Very comfortable space, would stay again!

Would not recommend

Place had not been cleaned from previous guest upon check-in. Had to contact owner and wait for cleaning lady to clean unit. Owner did respond quickly and issued a cleaning credit for the mistake. Last two days and nights the unit experienced power outages with power being off most of the time. At times the unit was hot & miserable, especially at night. Owner said this is out of his control & told us to use extension cord to generator which only allowed us to power three items with AC not being an option. We chose refrigerator, swapping our cell phones to charge, & a very small fan for our third choice. Things like blow dryer & microwave would blow the generator circuit breaker. The flashlights available provided little light. We paid for AC, TV, hot showers, light and all the other amenities requiring electricity mentioned in the description which we didn't get the last two days and nights except for short windows of time, sometimes only a few minutes, sometimes up to two hours, none of which was on a reliable schedule. The owner didn't give us any other information or help or answers. We checked with the main office for the apartment complex which was also little help stating this is common and couldn't provide an accurate schedule of when power would come back on. I would recommend staying at a resort like Margaritaville which has their own power supply and doesn't rely on one electrical grid run by the Virgin Island Water and Power Authority like this apartment complex.

Fabulous, quiet spot above a beautiful beach area

The condo is modern, clean, and well equipped, with a gorgeous view out over the Sapphire Beach area. It was nice to have the beach about a 5-minute walk away so that I could enjoy the music and activities down at the beach but also easily return to the quiet and calm of the condo. There is a nice little pool just outside the condo unit, a good restaurant and bar two minutes down the hill. Sapphire Beach itself lacks a grocery store, but Redhook is only six minutes away by taxi. Overall, this was an excellent place to stay, and the host was responsive and helpful all the way through. A+!

Short but sweet

We only stayed for one night but it was a very nice stay. The condo was very clean and had an amazing view. There is a nice balcony with a bar-height table and chairs. We enjoyed a couple of drinks there. A pool is right outside the door as is Sudi's Caribbean Bar & Grille.

About the host

Hosted by Michael Harper

Host profile image
We are a adventurous family that fell in love with St. Thomas. My wife and I got engaged and married on island! We don't currently live on island, but come to visit as much as possible.

Why they chose this property

After travelling to St. Thomas multiple times, we decided to buy a condo and help others enjoy the island! We were particular about where we wanted to buy on island. After looking at multiple spots we decided that Sapphire was the place to be! We love the snorkeling, great beach area, amenities and the people!

What makes this property unique

This balcony condo has been completely rebuilt after the hurricanes (not so affectionately referred to as IRMARIA). My wife and I thoughtfully designed the space for comfort and luxury for you to enjoy.
