Beautiful, spacious and well kept condo. The kitchen was very well stocked, like we would be in our own home. Communication with the owners was super easy. They messaged me with tips, reminders and general information. The ocean view was beautiful with the sunrise in the mornings, and we were given a key code for their private balcony facing the west so that we could watch the sunsets over the bay. We had such a wonderful experience and would highly recommend this condo to anyone!

We have stayed at the Sapphire for 5 years every summer and this was the best stocked as far as cooking utensils and the cleanest dishes etc. If I had to give one suggestion if you have littles is bring your own cleaning supplies. We couldn’t find window cleaner or Lysol and our 3 and 4 year old had finger prints throughout we were wiping off with a towel but wish could have cleaned better prior to leaving. Great location and the managers communicated wonderfully! Will be booking again

Everything your family needs for an amazing vacation

We are so happy we chose to stay here! We had a multigen family trip so the three bedrooms, 2 bath condo was the right size for us with enough bedrooms and common areas for everybody. The kitchen was super well stocked which was great as we had planned to spend as much time at the beach and property as possible. The decor and furnishings made us feel like we were staying at a high end resort. The hosts have a bunch of beach toys, wagon, beach chairs etc that you can use. You have direct access to the beach through the pool at the back of the property. The pool is great too. Honestly we couldn't have asked for more. All of us (7 yr old, teens, parents and grandparents) had an amazing time here.

Fantastic quick beach getaway

The condo was great, had plenty of space and was well equipped. Great place to stay!! The resort is nice, the work hard to keep the property in good shape and security is active in preventing unruly behavior and enforcing the property rules. This allows for a fantastic family vacation property without the heavy party atmosphere you find as soon as you step off the property.

Beautiful Comdo

Great location easy access to the beach. Balcony view is great besides a little of looking at the top of a roof. The condo has everything you need unless you plan on cooking. You will need all the food condiments and seasoning. We had a great time. I would definitely stay at this condo again. The host is available for you and answer questions quickly.
