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. Family is considered (mother, father, daughter, son and or grandparents). For more information, please feel free to message me. 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.

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.

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.

This property is a great location for adults and families. The Sapphire is one of the nicest properties in the island, and the views from this unit are spectacular. The pool is awesome, and it’s just a short walk to the beach. We will be back! ##### Kathy S.

The pool was huge, which was great for the kids. Staff at Sapphire were wonderful. We visited the on-site spa and got massages. The condo was spacious and clean. The furniture and beds were comfortable. The condo was stocked with all the dishes, pots/pans, etc. - basically all kitchen supplies needed. I would stay in this specific condo again. ##### Kelly S.

Warm inviting beautifully decorated and complete I will say this felt like truly being home away from home. Terrific hosts, beautiful views, very spacious and comfortable condo with everything you need to enjoy the time at south Padre.

The kitchen has everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable. The view from the balcony was beautiful and we also enjoyed the Bay Balcony. Sapphire didn’t have too many beach chairs to rent, so we went to Sonny’s Beach Service, next door at Margaritaville everyday to rent chairs and umbrellas. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back! ##### Karen B.

Covered parking. Check-in was so easy. Condo was so clean and beautiful! Great views of the beach and pool. The bay view was a great extra perk. Plus so many more extra things that were included in the Condo. We enjoyed our stay so much that we ended up contacting the owners and adding another day. The owners were so friendly and we were grateful for one more day! So many great family memories made! Thank you!! 😊 Definitely would recommend and would love to come back again! ##### Lydia n.

This is our second time staying at the Sapphire in December. This time was even better as the new Margaritaville(sister property) is open right on the property with a heated pool and bar and grill. No more construction. Our unit was perfect and had all that you need for a fun family beach visit. Tom and Shelley are very helpful and available for any questions or issues. Hope to return same time next year! ##### Marie P.

We have stayed here in years past and it does not disappoint. Beautiful, large rooms; incredible views; well furnished spaces and I especially love their well stocked kitchen for after a long travel day and you just can't hit the grocery store. Love having the ziplocks! Oh! And we discovered their "Closet of Wonders" stuffed with boogie boards, footballs, sand toys and even a wagon to bring all the gear to the beach. We will definitely be staying there again. ##### Amy P. Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tanya D. 16 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Exactly what we needed it to be! I picked this property due to the excellent location and the three bedrooms to accommodate our family. When we arrived, we realized it was the perfect set up for our beach stay. The location is wonderful, you can walk right out to the best part of the beach. The condo is comfortable, clean, well stocked, and attractive. The owners have provided all the bulky beach gear so we didn’t have to figure out how to haul it in our car along with all the luggage! The property is full of fun things including a great pool, hot tub, and fun teen room! The owners were responsive and great to work with. A wonderful experience! ##### Tanya D.

We were excited to stay at the Sapphire building, having stayed at Margaritaville on our last trip to SP. This condo was great! The kitchen was stocked with all essentials, and a few bottles of cold water in the fridge was nice to have after hauling all our kids stuff up to the room. Most of the things we brought - chairs, wagon. boogie boards...we could have left at home, the condo had everything! The rooms were nice and clean. The view of the ocean is partially blocked by the roof of Margaritaville but you still have enough of a beautiful view to enjoy! Overall, this was a great place to stay. The owners were very friendly and very prompt in getting back to us. ##### Christina E.
