Great condo with everything you need!
We did a lot of searching before deciding to book this condo. We found that everything was exactly as it was described. We actually thought it looked even better in person! From beach towels, to all the things needed at the beach/pool, fully stocked kitchen to cook meals, and plenty of room for 6-8 people...this place did not disappoint. It was clean, in a great location near restaurants, shopping, and excursions. We did bay fishing within just blocks of the condo too. The only thing we weren't a fan of was the staff who was patrolling the grounds. They get a little too overly upset about the smallest things. Moving chairs by the pool to get better sun (even if we would put them back after use), and since we were the only ones at the pool...we kept a small speaker at a very low volume, but that apparently is a big no even if nobody else is around. It didn't ruin anything for us and we understand they need rules, but could be better about enforcing the spirit of the rules instead of being so strict. Overall - couldn't be more satisfied with the response we got from the owners from the moment we booked and giving all the directions up front that there were no questions needed to be answered during our stay. Would highly recommend!

This condo was excellent. It was perfect for my family and had everything you need. It’s beautiful, and the hotel is awesome because there is no public traffic. Pool and hot tub were incredible. This place was easy. The best part was the bed I stayed in. It was one of the queens and it was the best I’ve slept in a long time. We decided we need new bedding and pillows at home because these were so much better than our own :)

Outstanding experience at Sapphire Condo!
From beginning to end, our experience at this condo was amazing! We have 5 kids and all of them enjoyed the beautiful view, the amazing space, the game room and movie theater located in the first floor. My husband and I had one of the most amazing family vacation. The condo is beautiful and the view will stay with us forever.

Perfect location, great access to the beach! Everything was just as expected! The only disappointment was before booking, the advertisement promised access to Margaritavilles pools and particularly the swim up bar. But upon arrival we were told that option would not be possible because of pending law suit. Other than that it was a great stay.

Lovely Vacation Spot
We loved staying at Sapphire in this condo. We arrived with a seamless check in and had great communication from Sam before our stay. The condo provided a starter pack of dishwasher soap, laundry soap, some spices, and coffee essentials, as well as towels and beach toys. We utilized the pool and were greeted with fantastic staff while there. Easy walk to the beach. Would stay here again!

Everything was as expected. The pack n play and beach toys were nice to have there so we didn’t have to bring our own. An ice machine somewhere on property would have been helpful but that’s not a huge deal.

We stayed for 1 month and we had a great experience. The unit is exactly as described and pictured. The unit is well furnished with everything you need. The appliances, TV and internet connection are excellent. The resort amenities are outstanding. Our host, Sam, was extremely helpful and communicative. We would recommend it to anyone.

Saphire was probably the nicest place my wife and I have ever stayed on the beach. Excellent accommodations, location, and the staff was very professional and courteous. The owner's communications were quick and clear, and the condo unit was excellent. We were very pleased overall with our experience with everything.

Great place!
We checked out SPI for first time! Great property, wish we had brought friends with us! Roomy, quiet (this time of year), private, great on-site spa. Great starter pack of laundry and d/w pods. Jacuzzi bath jets didn't work, but after contacting Sam, he was quick to offer a maintenance check/help, which we ultimately declined only because we didn't see it a a necessity. We notified Sam because we wanted him to know that we did not do the damage and thought probably whole tub would need to be removed to fix it. Highly recommend staying here.

Absolutely Perfect!!
Our stay at the Sapphire was incredible in every way! I traveled to SPI with my daughter and a few of her friends for her 16th birthday. The space was perfect and had everything we needed, and then some. Pictures don’t do it justice- it is a stunning condo with so much room. It was stocked with beach towels, boogie boards, extra blankets and pillows, coffee maker, plenty of dishes, pots and pans, blender- literally everything you’d need is there! The pool area is stunning. It is a huge pool with plenty of lounge chairs. Very relaxed, quiet setting to enjoy lounging and reading a book. The Margaritaville pool next door is very nice too, and a little livelier for the young girls to use when they wanted a little more excitement. It was so nice to have both options available. The beach is right off the back of the pool area and is amazing as well. The staff at Sapphire is wonderful as well. I had never been to SPI so was unsure of what to expect. Thanks he stay here exceeded my expectation on every way. We will definitely be back. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Gulf Vacation!
The property was more spacious than we had originally thought, which was great for our family of 5. Could have easily accommodated a few more guests! The view was beautiful! Plenty to do and see or simply enjoy the patio and time on the beach. Sand toys for the kids and a few necessities to get us started (which we naturally left behind at home). Thank you for sharing your space with us! We will definitely return to South Padre!
