➡️ Please note that, in addition to rental units, Sapphire is a residential property. Many of the units are occupied by owners that live here full time. Upon booking, you will receive a list of the Sapphire's rules and regulations. Guests are asked to respect and obey the Sapphire's rules so that everyone can enjoy their time at the resort.

⚠️ Important Payment Notice – Klarna / Affirm
Please note that reservations paid using Klarna, Affirm, or similar “buy now, pay later” virtual cards may decline during processing. There are two separate transactions for each reservation (one for VRBO service fees and one for the rental payment through SPI Rentals). Many virtual one-time card providers only authorize a single transaction, which causes the payment to fail. For this reason, we recommend that guests do not book using Klarna, Affirm, or similar services. If a reservation is attempted using one of these payment methods and the payment declines, the guest will be required to provide an alternative form of payment or cancel the reservation.

Perfect Beach Vacation
Our family loved our stay at Sapphire! The condo was very well equipped and had great views of the beach. The amenities are awesome. We enjoyed the gym and my wife and daughter loved the spa. Beach access was easy and the huge pool always had space available. The location was perfect for us. We wouldn't hesitate to visit again!

Great service
This was our 10th year with SPI Rentals and your customer service continues to be exceptional. We did have trouble with the trac lighting. There are only 4 fixtures that work anymore and that is not enough light at night for our activities. I do hope this can be fixed before next year.
Thank you, Kent and Sylvia Person

Great facilities, well kept and clean. Unit was very nice, balcony views were great. Only suggestion is to upgrade the beds. Master bed frame was not sitting level due to carpet under foot board and middle vertical supports had collapsed causing mattress to sink in middle. Vertical Supports appear to be too long for height of horizontal slats. Guest beds were just very firm. All in all, really enjoyed our stay and would recommend both the facility and the unit. Our first, but not last, Padre Island visit. Thanks!
First, the good: location, pool, beach access are wonderful!
Second, the not good: furniture is old, broken, and dirty. This is not a comfortable condo to hang out in. While the beds were comfortable, the bedding and bath linens were not great. We were given 2 towels per bathroom (worn and cheap) and the king size pillows had standard size pillow cases. We had to buy additional trash bags as well. The kitchen is not well-furnished so we ended up eating out every night.
We had a great stay, but would not reserve this room again.

Sapphire condo
The rental itself was excellent, well stocked kitchen, clean and quiet, except for the malfunctioning fire alarm one night. The check in process was cumbersome. Numerous emails requesting information with confidential information which was not needed as I refused to send all of it. There is never a need to send a picture of a Cc to a phone number. Besides that all the information was not sent by email which then required us to stop at your office. After filling out the requested form we tried to check in with at the Sapphire and were told they didn't have the form. After waiting, calling and repeatedly questioning the front desk we filled the form out there. With todays simple check-ins SPI rentals made the evening so cumbersome we will hesitate to use you again.
We had an amazing stay. The condo was just as described with wonderful views of the ocean and the bay. It had everything we needed to make ourselves at home. This was our first time staying at the Sapphire and it won't be our last. The Sapphire staff were always helpful and very friendly. Beautiful pool and easy access to the beach. We loved the gym, which was so much bigger than expected. The kids really enjoyed the game room, where the pool table was the hit. We did have a small maintance issue with one of the window shades when we first arrived and the rental company was able to take care of it the same day. We loved our stay at the Sapphire and it won't be our last.
The condo was better than described. I loved the Sapphire. The pool was amazing, the staff was great.The weather took a dive on our last day but because the condo was so great it did not really matter. I visited the super nice, spacious gym and enjoyed the side, back and front views available in the condo.

Easy Check-In and Responsive Service
This is our 3rd stay at the Sapphire and it was great once again! Check-in and check-out was super easy! We had a few minor maintenance issues during our stay and SPI Rentals sent someone quickly and took care of everything.
This property was very comfortable and perfectly located to the property amenities and beach. Highly recommend.
