Several places at Sapphire Beach Resort and Marina have two bedrooms upstairs and sleep 6. If you need to sleep 6, but all means, rent one of these units instead of mine! However, all units at Sapphire Beach and Marina are the same size in terms of square feet. A two-bedroom upstairs might be nice if you want two bedrooms. But we have a large master suite in the same space as other folks squeezed two bedrooms. Make sure you getting what you need in terms of sleeping adults. If you are two adults, or two adults plus kids, you'll appreciate our full, luxurious master suite!
Overview of Sapphire Beach Resort and Marina
Seaside Paradise Villa is located in building F at the Sapphire Beach and Marina Resort, just steps away from the beach. It has a beautiful breeze that comes off from the marina and you can watch the boats come and go. The vibe around this part of the resort is peaceful and calm where you can enjoy a true Caribbean getaway. As you walk from your villa towards the Sapphire Beach Bar, things start to transition from "peaceful" to "happening!" One of the nest things about this location is you can easily walk to "happening," but when you're ready to go back to your villa for some peace and quiet, you can leave the "happening" behind. With that said, Sapphire Beach Bar is quite the place, with regular live music and a monthly "full moon" party that is a must-have experience if you are staying during that part of the month. But all week, Sapphire is the place to be!
There are many options for activities and entertainment right on the premises. In addition to the beach, there is a pool that is for exclusive use by guests of the resort and overlooks the water. The water sport hut, directly on the beach, offers rentals for snorkel gear, kayaks and paddleboards.
Start off your day at The Beach Buzz Coffee Bar for your daily caffeine fix and many breakfast options.
In the afternoon, check out the Sapphire Beach Resort Bar and Grill, serving up burgers, tacos, salads and of course cocktails like the Virgin Island special the Painkiller. Just around the corner from the beach bar, there's a 2nd bar and a pizza place. A short walk up the hill is Sudi’s Caribbean Grill, which also offers additional lunch and dinner options and a bar. One beach, many options!
The new Sapphire Beach bar is full of exciting afternoon and evening entertainment options with cabanas, cocktails and live music in the evenings! It sits right on the beach and overlooks the water.
