We booked our stay through VRBO,and through there, met the most amazing owners Steve and Honey! The condo was spacious, very clean ,bright and airy with a wonderful beach feel to it. The owners made sure that we were well equipped with everything we could possibly need for our stay including a bottle of wine sitting on the table awaiting... more

We stayed on the west side in the condominiums. The buildings look like they were built in the 60s, but were in kept up very well with nice landscaping. Best of all, our rental was very close to the beach. Our studio unit had a large, fully equipped kitchen, a living room, cable TV, clean bathroom, and screened porch overlooking... more

Just a lovely recommendation for those who enjoy the Virgin Islands. If you like a place that is quiet, very friendly and a place to relax and sit in the sun right on the beach, swim snorkel, and even play tennise, then this is the place. Crystal Cove is right on Sapphire Beach and there are various units to choose... more

We stayed in Unit A-6 which we rented through David Paresky through the bestbeach website. Overall, I think it was a nice place. The condo was spacious and extremely well equiped. They provided us with everything we could possibly need including tons of towels, every kitchen utensil we needed, laundry detergent, tennis rackets, balls, beach toys, charcoal and lighter fluid,... more

The unit in which we stayed over several visits (C-28) provides plenty of room and closet space (you can put your suitcases out of sight). It is newly renovated: the kitchen boasts a large refrigerator, a new stove, a microwave and a separate toaster oven. A black granite island, part of the open-plan kitchen/living room, is big enough to serve... more

We have just spent time at Crystal Cove this past President Day week. It was high season, but we had reasonable rate. We book the trip through American Express and our unit rented was B-3. Place was one bedroom with plenty room. This unit was on the first floor and didn't have view, but beach is right there and didn’t... more

I have been visiting these late-1960s-built condo apartments for over 30 years. My parents owned one of these units (C-19) for three decades until they sold it last year. They just rented a different unit for six weeks (B-11) and I stayed there for a week. There are several facts about these units you should know before deciding whether or... more

It was my 50th so I arranged 5 days at Crystal Cove based on TA's reviews with beachdestinations.com. I asked for a recently renovated Suite and we got something out of the 70's with another layer of new paint (C28). Trying to sleep with A/C working overtime was difficult and the elephants upstairs didn't help. The place was basic, like... more

Crystal Cove consists of several two-story buildings arranged in a semicircle around a lagoon, with Sapphire Beach a short distance away. Sapphire Beach, with its views of St. John, was by far the most beautiful beach we encountered while in St. Thomas. In terms of design, Crystal Cove is very 80s, and some buildings are showing their age. We stayed... more
