Amazing Property and Hosts
Unit was absolutely amazing. Fantastic ocean and bay views. Property was clean and well taken care of.
Hosts could not have been more accommodating. Smoke alarms went off temporarily and Sylvia was all over it getting maintenance to the unit almost immediately and showed great concern for our inconvenience. Would definitely recommend this property and will stay here again given the opportunity.
6 Stars!!!

Everything I have to say about this place is fantastic. Great communication, great Condo that looks exactly like the pictures. The view is breathtaking. Great amenities, specifically the pool. Easy beach access. The beach was amazing also - clear water and beautiful sand. We had a great time! The owner went above and beyond for us on a special request as well.

Nice place to stay
The Sapphire is a nice condo. That was our second time to stay there.They were having issues with AC and Internet in the building, but they had a lot of people working on fixing it until it was fixed. All the staff there were really nice. The kids loved the pool, and the beach was right past it. Lots of jellyfish this time of year. 3 out of 4 of us were stung. Luckily there is a water hose at the end of the boardwalk for the condo and we could spray it off right away. The hot tub helped it feel better, too. Overall, very good vacation.

Annual trip to The Sapphire.
Our family loves the beach, and we always stay at The Sapphire. Out of all of the condos we have stayed this condo was the best. It had a warm and inviting atmosphere and the wagon really helped us out so much. The views of the beach and bay was absolutely breathtaking. We had an amazing view of the fireworks while eating dinner on the balcony. The manager was very understanding when we were 30 minutes late with checkout. I would definitely recommend 2501!!!!
