➡️ Please note that, in addition to rental units, Sapphire is a residential property. Many of the units are occupied by owners that live here full time. Upon booking, you will receive a list of the Sapphire's rules and regulations. Guests are asked to respect and obey the Sapphire's rules so that everyone can enjoy their time at the resort. This brief note is to emphasize the fact that the Sapphire vigorously enforces these rules. Failure to abide by them may result in fines and eviction.

⚠️ Important Payment Notice – Klarna / Affirm
Please note that reservations paid using Klarna, Affirm, or similar “buy now, pay later” virtual cards may decline during processing. There are two separate transactions for each reservation (one for VRBO service fees and one for the rental payment through SPI Rentals). Many virtual one-time card providers only authorize a single transaction, which causes the payment to fail. For this reason, we recommend that guests do not book using Klarna, Affirm, or similar services. If a reservation is attempted using one of these payment methods and the payment declines, the guest will be required to provide an alternative form of payment or cancel the reservation.

Super comfortable home unbeatable views!
Our family absolutely enjoyed our stay at The Sapphire. Even thru a tropical storm! The condo home was comfortable to work on puzzles, watch tv, cook and relax!!!!! We will definitely stay here again when we come back to SPI!!!
We had an amazing time at this condo. We were traveling with 3 kids (8, 5, 1). There was plenty of space for the baby to walk around and several movies and games for the big kids to enjoy. We loved watching sunset and sunrise every day. The sapphire property is amazing, best on the island. We would love to come back and stay at this beautiful condo.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
The Sapphire is a beautiful property with a luxurious pool and other amenities. The condo was beautifully decorated and comfortable. The SPI staff was gracious and attentive to any issues that we had throughout our stay. A couple of things that would make our stay even better would have been patio furniture so you could enjoy the patio and new pots and pans. Otherwise, the accommodations were awesome. Easy access to the beach too. The resort next door allows you to rent an umbrella and with cash you get an umbrella with chairs for a good price after 12pm. I would stay here again if that possibility happens in the future.

Super spacious with views from almost every room
All the pros: It has two balconies, and beautiful views from the kitchen, living room, and master bedroom (amazing to wake up to). Both full bathrooms have oversize tubs and the master bath has a tv facing the tub, which we used. One of the balconies has an electric grill. My husband cooked some steaks on it and they were delicious. The kid's room is very cute and my son loved exploring it. The master's bed was super soft and I was worried because we like firm mattresses, but it was surprisingly comfortable. The living room had very comfortable seating, with two reclinable chairs, and a comfortable sofa with 2 ottomans. This was important to us because we like to relax comfortably watching TV, after a long day at the beach/pool. There's an easy-up canopy available to take to the beach, and a couple of sand toys. The access to the beach is perfect. We've stayed at other properties in SP, and this one had the best access to haul a bunch of stuff. Thank goodness we had access to the Margaritaville pool, because theirs is heated and the Sapphire pool is not heated. This apartment is conveniently located on the side of Margaritaville also, so it was a short walk to their pool and restaurant. And now the nitpicking cons: There was a water leak coming from the kitchen floor tile. We didn't call maintenance about it until after we checked out because it didn't look like an easy fix and we just wanted to enjoy our stay. Hopefully it's something they take care of before the next guest arrives. We put towels on the kitchen floor and it wasn't a big deal for us. The fitted sheet on the king bed in the master kept coming off during the night. They didn't cheap out on the mattress but they did cheap out on a fitted sheet that was too small. This is an easy fix with a deep pocket fitted sheet. Final thoughts: We would definitely stay here again. We loved it and the space was more than comfortable for us (couple, grandma, and child).
This place is amazing they have all you need for your vacation, they have even more stuff that you can imagine for you to enjoy your stay. Thank you
