For couples · Honeymoons & anniversaries
A honeymoon condo where the loudest thing is the water
A king bed facing the beach, a hammock on a private patio, sunrise over St. John and a bar on the sand — without a resort lobby between you and any of it.
📍 6720 Estate Smith Bay, Unit D101, St. Thomas, VI 00802, U.S. Virgin Islands
Unit D101 is a one-bedroom beachfront condo at Sapphire Beach Resort & Marina on St. Thomas that works well for honeymoons, anniversaries and romantic getaways. Vrbo flags it as loved by couples, with multiple 10/10 ratings from couples among its 259 reviews.
The bedroom has a king bed positioned so the beach is visible from it. The covered patio has a hammock, a teak table for two and a grill. Sunrise comes up over St. John and Tortola; in the evening you can eat at the beach bar on the sand, walk five minutes to the restaurant above the marina, or cook in and eat on the patio. With a queen sleeper sofa in the living area the condo also works for two couples travelling together.

What a week here looks like
Slow mornings, short walks, no lobby
Wake up to the beach through the glass doors. Coffee on the patio while the sun comes up behind St. John. Down to the water before anyone else is on it — the reef is right there, and there are three sets of snorkel gear in the unit. Back for breakfast in your own kitchen, because the beachfront restaurant costs three times as much and you are not in a hurry.
The resort runs beach yoga twice a week and keeps a volleyball net on the sand. Spa2Go VI will come to the beach or to the condo for a massage. The marina is a few steps away if you want to take a boat out, day-sail to St. John and Trunk Bay, or catch a catamaran to Jost Van Dyke.
Evenings are the easy part: the beach bar does tropical drinks and a mahi-mahi sandwich, with live music on Sundays. There is another restaurant and bar a five-minute walk above the marina. Or you stay in, use the grill, and eat at the teak table with the doors open.

Frequently asked
Questions about this condo
Is this a good honeymoon rental?
It is set up for two: a king bed with a beach view, a private covered patio with a hammock, a beach bar on site and no hotel lobby to pass through. Vrbo marks the property as loved by couples based on multiple 10/10 ratings from couples.
Can two couples share it?
Yes. The bedroom has a king bed and the living area has a queen Bassett sleeper sofa, so it sleeps four — though there is one bathroom, which is worth knowing before you book.
Is it quiet?
It is a private corner unit and guests describe it as having enough going on for entertainment and plenty of quiet. The beach bar has live music on Sundays; Red Hook, under a mile away, is where the late nights happen.
Can we arrange a massage?
Yes. Spa2Go VI will come to the beach or to your room — arrange it once you have your dates.
Is there anything romantic within walking distance?
The beach bar and grill is on the sand at the resort, and there is another restaurant and bar a short five-minute walk above the marina. Red Hook, under a mile away, adds a lot more.
What is there to do nearby for a special day?
Day-sail to St. John and Trunk Bay, catamaran to Jost Van Dyke and the Soggy Dollar Bar, speedboat to Virgin Gorda and The Baths, or a sunset cruise. All of it leaves from the marina or from Red Hook.
