209C Smith Bay EE Sapphire Beach Resort & Marina, St. Thomas 00802

Property Description

The sand starts where your balcony ends. Positioned in one of the most desirable beachfront settings at Sapphire Beach Resort & Marina, this second-floor corner studio delivers the kind of direct, unobstructed access to the shoreline that defines true Caribbean living. Not across the road. Not down a path. Directly on the sand, with panoramic turquoise water just beyond your doors. Elevated on the second level, this residence strikes the ideal balance, offering enhanced privacy and security while maintaining an immediate connection to the beach below. Floor-to-ceiling sliders invite in constant trade winds and the natural rhythm of the shoreline, allowing for seamless indoor-outdoor living. The wraparound balcony is a standout feature, providing dual exposures and uninterrupted views across one of St. Thomas's most celebrated beaches. From sunrise coffee to sunset cocktails, this is a space designed for daily use and effortless enjoyment, where the beach becomes an extension of your living area. Inside, the studio has been thoughtfully updated with a refreshed kitchen, modern flooring, and curated furnishings that complement the coastal setting. Offered fully furnished, the unit is genuinely turnkey, equally suited for immediate personal use or continued short-term rental income. Sapphire Beach itself is known for its calm, crystal-clear waters and protected reef, ideal for snorkeling, paddleboarding, and swimming just steps from your door. Onsite amenities include Beach Buzz Coffee Shop, Sapphire Beach Bar, Paradise Pie, SeaSalt, and Naia Boutique, along with an oceanfront pool and a full-service marina offering boat charters, dinghy rentals, and Jet Skis. Located on the East End, you're minutes from Red Hook's ferry access, dining, and conveniences, making this one of the few true beachfront communities where a rental car is optional. Whether positioned as a high-performing vacation rental or a private island retreat, this property delivers a rare combination of location, lifestyle, and immediate usability.
