St. Thomas studio on the water

View of Caribbean Sea from private balcony

St. Thomas beachfront property with unobstructed view of the sea

Glass House on the Sea is a spectacular beachfront, luxurious large corner unit studio with a clean, modern design.

Glass House is the only unit in Sapphire Beach Resort without another building right next to and that gives you unrivaled privacy. The extra-large wrap around balcony with an additional set of slider doors and a window by the bed offers more space and light.

Privacy and ocean breezes overlooking the Virgin Island Archipelago

Your front balcony is just 20 steps from the ocean, overlooking the Virgin Islands Archipelago while the side balcony overlooks our picturesque Marina.

Glass House is perfect for couples, honeymooners and guests who appreciate privacy and higher end accommodations.

Glass House has a constant breeze blowing from the ocean that gives you an option to cool the unit with just wind - just open the sliders!

Our second floor unit delivers better views and the privacy from anyone walking on the beach as well as the security to sleep with the sliding doors open to the breeze if you prefer that over the air conditioning. You can fall asleep hearing the waves crashing on the beach and wake up to the most beautiful sunrise you have ever seen with St. John and The British Virgin Islands framing your view.

Ocean breezes and the sound of waves

in the morning, enjoying your coffee on your balcony will make you feel as you are floating on your own super yacht on the Caribbean Sea. You could not be any closer – you can smell the ocean air and hear the waves land on the beach.

Since the sun clocks around the building on the right side, you can indulge in the late afternoon light long after other units lose their sunlight. That means a longer day for sunbathing on the chaise lounge or enjoying your cocktail in a comfortable arm chair admiring the view and the beach.
