Sapphire is the tallest, nicest, and has the most amenities of any resort on the Island. When you cross the causeway bridge from the mainland, it is impossible to not see the lit up teal towers - and that is where you will be staying.
Then, you get to (literally) take it to the next level by staying on the exclusive 17th floor. Way. Way up!

If you can't find the network name SouthPadreTrips it's usually means we had a power outage and when the power comes back on It typically defaults the router to the factory network name and password, which is located on a sticker on top of the router.
Generally, if you reboot the router by unplugging it for a few minutes and plugging it back in it will pop up
