Located on the preferred East End of St Thomas on beautiful Sapphire Beach, you may never want to leave. If you must, Red Hook is only a 2 minute drive away with the restaurants, bars, grocery store, and shopping. Best possible spot for first time visitors, and our numerous return visitors that have found their slice of heaven in paradise on our white sand beach! We highly recommend a rental car for your stay.

After a busy week of excursions, snorkeling, and scuba diving on St. John and the British Virgin Islands, our stay at Villa Nautilus on St. Thomas was a welcome relaxing retreat. The beautifully remodeled condo was very comfortable and the people we met at the complex were genuinely friendly. Highly recommended for a couple looking to "get away".
I think we may have found our new home in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands! Our family travels to the USVI at least once a year. We have stayed at the Ritz, we have stayed at Frenchman's Bay Marriot, and we have rented Estates in Peterborg with groups of friends. Villa Nautilus easily ranks right up there as one of our favorite experiences. First off, the Villa is beautifully appointed (think high end), there is direct access and views of the nicest beach in STT, Sapphire Bay. The room, kitchen and living area is large. This quiet enclave of condos is not pretentious and so wonderful. It really feels like a secret gem that only locals and people who have been visiting for years know about. You will fall in love with Norma, who does a great job maintaining the property (and sharing good advice). We traveled with our two children ages 8 and 6 and it was a perfect. Literally we rolled out of bed and onto the beach. Another bonus is how close it is to the St. John Ferry, Mo's Market (which is like Whole Foods), and a lot of other great restaurants. If you are looking for an authentic local vibe and great home base, this is it! I am sure we will return. Thank you Villa Nautilus and Paul for the hospitality.
