Wedding trip
The condo was beautiful and clean. The reason I did not score a 5 star is because some of the basic pantry items were not supplied. No seasoning, sugar, tissues, paper towels, napkins or a spatula. There is also a rule that you can not have more than 8 guest we had 5 adults staying there but since it was an out of town wedding we had grandchildren that wanted to visit. The grandchildren were adults and we were not going to use the facilities just wanted to be together and talk. This was not allowed once the first 3 grandchildren came and left no one else could come up. I must of missed that in the contract since I have used VRBO in the past and as long as the guest didn’t sleep over they can visit. Just be aware.

Great budget option for Sapphire
We’ve stayed at Sapphire many times, each time in a different unit. This unit had a great price point and great use of bedroom space to accommodate our family members comfortably. Unit has a very “property management company” feel as far as vacation rentals go: tacky decor, furniture that’s functional but not user friendly or appealing, lack of attention to detail and basic maintenance items needing attention.

Everything we needed!
What a great condo! This unit was very well appointed and perfect for our family of 6. The furnishings were just right so everyone had space where we could be together or have our own quiet time. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed, making it easy to get meals and snacks together at all times. We love South Padre and The Sapphire; this condo was what we perfectly what we needed for our vacation.

Great location & property
The location was just perfect, short walk to get to the beach. Condo was very clean and spacious. In the home, had basic necessities and included minimal extra supplies. If going with a larger group or for a longer time, would recommend bringing extra garbage bags, paper towels, and cleaning supplies/laundry soap. Upon arrival, there wasn't a broom or vacuum, so did have to purchase one to keep the floors clean. The property itself was very clean and onsite staff was very polite and helpful. The pool was clean and spacious. The hot tub was closed for a good portion of the time we were there, but it was so hot out it didn't matter for us. Game room was also nice. We did encounter an issue with the power being out for a few hours, but was resolved fairly quickly by the team. Our family loved the trip and would definitely recommend staying here.
