Not all condo's at the Sapphire are created equal, supplied, managed, or priced the same, so I encourage you to read the reviews from past guests. You get what you pay for. We make every effort to maintain an open communication with our guests to help ensure they are ready for their time at the beach, and to ensure they have an amazing experience. As the owners and fellow travel enthusiasts, we understand your vacation is an investment for you and your family, so we do our best to provide a fair price for what our condo provides, and to help provide you information and an amazing place to stay, to receive the best return on that investment. The memories, friendships, and cherished experiences at the beach will come from you. \* IMPORTANT: SPRING BREAK OR EASTER WEEKS: As a Sapphire Homeowners Association Regulation (beyond our control), any bookings during Spring Break, or Easter Week/Santa Semana, The primary renter must be 30 yrs or older and if a family with children, all people staying in the condo must be immediate family members living under the same household.

Definitely the highlight of this condo, besides the view, is the close proximity to the beach. Once down the elevator and outside the back door, its a 100 yard walk through the best pool resort in South Padre Island, passing through the security gate and down a newly-built wooden walkway to the best beach on the island. Upon return, there are hoses and showers to rinse off all the sand before coming back in. If you are looking for the best beach and best resort to stay on the Island, this is your place. ABOUT OUR CONDO: Beachfront Sapphire Luxury Condo rental with magnificent direct views of the Gulf of Mexico from inside the condo as well as the Gulf balcony, and great views of the Bay and SpaceX facilities from the separate, private bay balcony. Our condo can accommodate up to 8 guests (can not have more than 8 due to codes and regulations), and is your perfect luxury vacation getaway. Our condo unit is NO SMOKING OR VAPING, NO PETS, privately-owned and immaculately maintained. Located on the 17th floor, the condo is located low enough to hear the ocean waves but high enough above the neighboring buildings to have miles of unobstructed views of the beautiful island beach both north and south. Plus in the summer months, it provides great views of the fireworks shows and sunsets from a separate private bay-view balcony (excusive to our condo and accessed by key across the hallway) on the back side of the building. From this bay-side balcony, you can also see in the distance the new SpaceX Boca Chica launch pad and maybe even catch a glimpse of a rocket launch, or test landing. (Amazing experience with clients from December 9, 2020 test launch of SN8) This condo is fully furnished to provide you with everything you need for a comfortable stay.

A washer/dryer combo is available in the condo in a separate utility closet, to help with any laundry loads you may need to do during your stay. We provide you with beach/sand toys, boogie boards, beach towels, beach chairs, and even a beach bag along with a wagon to transport things to the beach. A beach umbrella & tent are also available.
