Our super cute condo boasts all the amenities you would expect from a luxury beachside hotel including attentive staff, beach chair service, and free internet and cable.
At the same time, you can live like a local by taking advantage of the fully equipped kitchen and dining area, as well as, the privacy of our private association tucked away in beautiful Sapphire Beach.
Purple Lotus brings peace and balance to your being , in a quaint serene 1000 sq. ft. condo that comes fully furnished with one bedroom offering a private bathroom, king size bed with plenty of bureau space and closets alongside luxury bed linens and towels.

Some of these include Thomas's variety of shops and restaurants in Red Hook, fishing and boat charters, a ferry to St. John, dive centers and fun filled Eco Tours. Drive 10 minutes further to stop at all the popular beaches, Coki Beach and Coral World, Lindquist, and Magens Bay (Don't forget to stop at a Utter's homemade ice cream for an amazing milkshake after a day at Magens Bay.) Prefer to stay put? Easy enough, take a stroll through our beautiful court yard that brings you directly to sun kissed sapphire beach offering great local food and drink.
Don't miss this opportunity to reserve Rurple Lotus retreat at a very affordable competitive price per night. Long and Short inquires are welcomed.

Perfect Location

It is not often that the photos match the location. In this rental they exceeded the photo. The condo was clean and well stocked . The location was perfect for our two week stay as we had easy access to the beach, taxis and food options. We enjoyed the island and made various day and over night trips and it was awesome to have our very comfortable home spot. The owners are lovely and want to ensure your stay is comfortable and that you have everything you need . We hope to be return renters. Thank you so much for allowing us to share your beautiful home

Beautiful Unit and View

The unit was exactly as described and so much room. Tastefully decorated and the view was amazing. Really like the 2 full baths for getting ready. Kitchen was well stocked.The king size bed was very comfy. Tons of bath towels and beach towels. Nice portable beach chairs that we used when we went to Lindquist Beach. The chair service at Sapphire Beach was great and free (we did tip). Location is close to Red Hook. We liked the keypad style lock so we never had to worry about carrying a key. The host was super to work with and if we ever return to St. Thomas, we would stay here again.

Third visit to the island

We decided to rent the condo this trip and it was amazing. The condo is 5 minites from Red Hook and the ferry parking garage. We cooked dinner and breakfast several times and just watched the waves from the dining area. Would stay here again on next trip to island.

Perfection

This is our second year staying in Crystal Cove. The location is perfect. Everything we needed was just a short drive away. We swam with sea turtles every day and woke up to amazing sunrises. The grounds are beautiful kept and the housekeeper was very friendly. We appreciated the beach wagon, beach chairs and beach towels provided. We rented two condos and had a party of 8. Everyone had a wonderful time and we will be returning.

This condo was perfect for our girls trip. Both beds were comfortable. Loved having 2 bathrooms. The condo had everything you need for a beach vacation. Tons of beach towels, chairs, toys & rafts. Location was fantastic. So close to Sapphire Beach. Loved the beach bar. Must try the fish tacos and pina coladas or BBC’s. Hope to visit again.

Awesome condo! Would definitely stay again...

The condo was wonderful, very private and steps from the beach. We felt very safe with the gated entrance and we were able to hop on the $1 van to reach all of the shopping and restaurants. The lights went out for a short time which apparently happens every now and then on the island. The host communicated with us immediately whenever we had questions and we could not have picked a better condo. Beautifully decorated, peaceful and ideal for beach lovers!

Exceeded our expectations!

I would give this place ten stars if I could! One of the best units we have ever visited! This property is well maintained and is equipped with everything you could possibly need! Just a short walk to the beach, a boutique & 5 restaurants. This was perfect for our family as we enjoy spending the majority of our time at the beach. If you want night life or lots of shopping.... this neighborhood isn't for you. Thank you Rachel & John for a wonderful visit!

I would recommend. Very nice beach and place to stay at. Great location. Few problems with tv/local internet company that finally got corrected and good communications with owners to get it handled promptly. Water heater seems to come and go when it wants. Other than that everything was ideal and no reason not to come back as great people atmosphere and would strongly recommend again. We will be back,

I cannot say enough good things about this property. The condo is spacious, clean & the kitchen is well stocked and set up for cooking for a family! We’re 5 minutes from Red Hook & a 2 minute walk to the beach (7 with kids who like to follow the chickens around), & a 5 minute drive to the amazing Coki Beach. I had a few questions for Rachel and she responded almost instantly. Sapphire beach is absolutely gorgeous!

About the host

Hosted by John Brasile

Host profile image
Hi, My husband and I recently purchased this property and just finished remodeling the entire property at the end of April. It is now fully stocked and ready to rent out to those smart and lucky renters who choose our location and enjoy the luxury of the newest condo in the complex. We are excited to be back in the rental program and to be able to share our newly renovated and comfortable location with those looking for a tropical retreat filled with fun and relaxation. John and I have lived in Connecticut all our lives. We own and operate an asphalt paving company and home construction for the past 40 years. We spent January, February, and March in our unit. So for anyone who wants to rent outside those dates we welcome you to contact us.

Why they chose this property

John and I have spent the last 10 years renting in St. Thomas all the while looking for the perfect location to buy. We finally came across a unit at Crystal Cove west steps from the beach which is very hard to find in St. Thomas. While there are many beautiful beaches in St. Thomas most of them require you to drive, park and walk to. There is nothing like the luxury of walking out your door with a towel and sunscreen and stepping onto the beach where you are greeted with free beach chair service and the delightful breeze coming off the crystal clear water.

What makes this property unique

The great benefits this property has to offer is that it is just steps to the beach in a small, private, and secure in a gated location. It is 3 minutes to the center of popular Red Hook that has many shops, great restaurants, and a grocery store. Its also very close (3 minutes) to the ferry docks if your interested in venturing out to some other islands. No car, no problem as Crystal Cove is also on the bus line. You can book many tours and activities right from our location. Come and have some fun! You can play tennis, swim, snorkel, scuba dive, take a tour, island hop, charter a boat, or just relax...the options are limitless. Namaste!
