Our stay at Sapphire was perfect for our family. The condo was spacious, spotless, and beautifully set up with everything we needed. The views from the condo were incredible — we enjoyed sunrise over the Gulf and sunset over the bay every day.The Sapphire itself is amazing, especially the pool and easy beach access. We felt relaxed the entire trip and had plenty of space for everyone.This was one of our favorite South Padre stays, and we would absolutely book here again!

Love the Sapphire. All reservation actions were easy. Any issues we had with our room were handled swiftly. The texting option with property mgt is very useful. Special thanks to Robert and Aaron at the Sapphire. About 2 hours after checking out we realized we had lefts gaming system in our too. They retrieved the items and made arrangements to get it to SOS Services for postal return.

Great condo with excellent view towards the Beach and the SpaceX launch tower. Lots of good dining in the area and interesting bars. Had a minor issue with the heat not coming on during a cold snap, but that was quickly addressed. Highly recommend and would stay again.

Beautiful Space X

Beautiful condo with views front, back and side. Ocean view, bay view and large window facing Space X. We were fortunate to see a rocket launch from our balcony! Had a little glitch but maintenance arrived within an hour and fixed the problem. Highly recommend this unit.

We had a really good time and the space was amazing. The views can’t be beat. The blind in the living room looking to space x doesn’t rise so that was a bummer but not that big of a deal. The kitchen is well appointed.

Better than the pics show

This condo is so much more wonderful than the pics could show! It is so light and bright with amazing views! We had so much too For our 3 teenagers and could have brought 4 more people easily. The walk to the beach is super quick, and the pool was so nice and refreshing. The jets didn’t work in master tub, but it’s not like we spent much time in the tub!

Nice Condo

Our stay and the view was amazing. There was a couple of minor issues. 1 - the grill didn’t work. 2 - some of the curtains wouldn’t go up so that affected the view in some rooms. Overall, it was a nice place to stay but a little bit overpriced.

14th Floor Vistas

We always enjoy the Sapphire property! Great location for walks on the beach to the jetty & to Yummy’s for breakfast! Gorgeous sunrises over the Gulf from oceanfront balcony and sunsets over the Laguna from inside-access balcony. We appreciated having access to the Laguna balcony from this condo. Loved this condo located below the 21st floor & south-end tower corner unit! Bed configuration was great…no bunk beds for 4 adults…yay! Beautiful condo and appreciated that there was a table that could be used for meals/puzzles/playing mahjongg! Will definitely book this unit again!

Over delivered!!

The condo was absolutely gorgeous, spacious, clean, and well equipped. The location was terrific, too. Our family of 5 (3 adult ish kids and my husband & I) had plenty of room to get out of each other's way. Beds were super comfy — and that’s critical as I’ve had back issues. No need to bring games — they’ve got ‘em. Movies? Yep — and good ones. Need a beach read? They’re well stocked. Oh— they have both a drip and pod coffee makers. We didn’t realize until we got there — good to know. There are umbrellas and chairs available to rent directly behind the condos, but we brought our own and carried them a little further south where the crowds thinned out. Space is kind of a theme for us, I guess. I’d visit again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend. Thank you for a great visit!!!

Variety of issues with a nice condo

We've stayed at the Sapphire over a dozen times in the last 10+ years. This time there were a number of challenges that made our stay sub par. When we arrived we both the internet and cable didn't work. I called to let the property mgr know, but since it was later in the day they didn't have anyone who could help. I wound up rebooting the systems, applied updates, and then waited for them to install. This was able to get the cable working, but the high speed internet operated at a crawl during out stay. While I was able to sort these issues myself, it was time I wasn't planning on spending fixing issues in this premier unit. We then noticed that the shower in the guest bath didn't work. I again called the property management company who directed me to the Sapphire. When I called the Sapphire they sent me back to the property management company? After expressing my frustration they sent up the Sapphire's on-site repairman who realized the handle to the shower was broken and would need to be replaced. In the meantime all 5 of us showered in the master bathroom. Later he returned to do the repair, but we had to wait in the room that afternoon while this all transpired. I let the mgmt company know I was upset at this point and asked to have someone call me to address things. This never happened as they promised. Upon leaving we attempted to run the dishwasher as a courtesy for the few utensils used but it didn't work either. Definite misses that spoiled this Sapphire stay.

Love Sapphire, stay here all the time!!!

We have been coming to Sapphire for years. We were renting an end unit on the 8th floor but the owners sold it and the new owners don't rent. Therefore, we were forced to find a new unit. This is certainly our new go to unit. Kitchen is well stocked, lots of different bedding and as with end units, always really quiet. You might consider adding some convenience items like a rolling cart for going to the beach. Another thing I can say is the check in process required us to stop at another location first, which was really just protocol and seemingly a waste of time. All other times we've rented here, we have been able to come straight to the facility. Other than that, great time as usual.
