This gulf-front, high-rise condo is a beach-goer's dream, offering lofty ceilings, large windows at every turn, and a pair of private balconies - one overlooking the bay and the other facing the beach.

Poor Property Management - Vacasa Managment Company
When we arrived at our rental we discovered that our AC was out and it took 24 hours to get it fixed. Because Vacasa (a management company) owned the unit we rented through VRBO, we had to find another Vacasa-owned unit to rent that night. That room's AC unit was also out. It took 24 hours before the condominium could send someone over to fix our unit and the temperature reached 80 degrees at one point. Not sure why the unit wasn't checked before we arrived, but that should have never been an issue to begin with.

95% great, 5% needed improvement
Overall it was a great experience. A few things would make it perfect or at least near perfect. Like a previous reviewer had stated, the sliding glass doors to the balconies were a little "tough" to open and close (and I'm a fairly strong guy). I could only imagine a little old lady trying to yank or pull that thing open. Another thing that could use improvement is the fact that the pool and gym have beginning and ending hours. Needs to be open 24 hours. Other than that, it was perfect.

Sapphire condos
Haven’t been to South Padre in years! We stayed at the Sapphire Condos and had everything we needed. The view, beach access, gym, pools and restaurants were all right there and having 7 teenagers it made everything easy to entertain. Highly recommend this property!

Beautiful condo with amazing view!
Two adults and 4 kiddos stayed in 2701, and had an amazing experience. The corner condo views of both the bay and ocean along with the strip were amazing. Plenty of room for 8 people.

Great stay!
Clean, great view with a lot of big windows (27th floor), plenty of room for family of four. Overall 5 stars. If I had one complaint it’s that the master bedroom had a queen. I’m 6’3” so a king is more comfortable for me. I’d stay here again, though!
