Don't forget your binoculars and camera - the sights from our private balconies are worth more than a thousand words. You'll be able to see the beach and Gulf of Mexico, the stunning tropical resort landscape and pool, the jetties, and the Gateway to Mars: Starbase and the SpaceX launch site. You won't want to miss the sunrise over the Gulf or the sunset over Laguna Madre Bay, either!
Our deliciously equipped kitchen includes full-size stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. Stop by the charming local grocery, Blue Marlin, then whip up a home-cooked meal for the whole family. Dine at the breakfast bar, which seats 4, or on the balcony we've furnished just for you.
Our primary Bedroom is a paradise all on its own with its king-size bed and gorgeous ocean views. The ensuite bathroom has a spacious double sink vanity, a walk-in shower, a swirling whirlpool tub, and a huge walk-in closet. Our 2nd Bedroom features 2 queen-size beds and can accommodate up to 4 guests. Your companions will love being across the hall from our 2nd full bathroom. The guest bathroom has a spacious vanity, walk-in shower, and detached soaking tub - perfect for the kids in your group! Speaking of kids - we've kept them in mind for our 3rd Bedroom. With its 2 twin beds and lovely view of the Laguna Madre Bay and Queen Isabella Causeway, our 3rd room is the ideal spot to keep the kids entertained when they're not making waves in the pool or on the beach.
Our vacation home has two private balconies. You can watch the sunrise from our beachfront balcony while the resort comes to life every morning. Our bay-side balcony has an electric grill, which you'll love using while enjoying the sunset over the bay.
We've included some bonus amenities for you and your companions to enjoy. When you're ready to head home, you can leave the sand behind - our in-unit washer & dryer are here for your convenience. We added a sofa sleeper, high-speed internet, cable and internet TV, a DVD player, and automated window coverings (if you dare to part with the views). We want nothing more than for you and yours to feel at home. Nothing will stand in the way of you and your perfect vacation.

Great condo with excellent view towards the Beach and the SpaceX launch tower. Lots of good dining in the area and interesting bars. Had a minor issue with the heat not coming on during a cold snap, but that was quickly addressed. Highly recommend and would stay again.
We enjoyed our stay at this property. The views of the beach and overall layout of the condo were great. Very comfortable and good times were had by all.

Love the Sapphire. All reservation actions were easy. Any issues we had with our room were handled swiftly. The texting option with property mgt is very useful. Special thanks to Robert and Aaron at the Sapphire. About 2 hours after checking out we realized we had lefts gaming system in our too. They retrieved the items and made arrangements to get it to SOS Services for postal return.

Beautiful condo with views front, back and side. Ocean view, bay view and large window facing Space X. We were fortunate to see a rocket launch from our balcony! Had a little glitch but maintenance arrived within an hour and fixed the problem. Highly recommend this unit.

We had a really good time and the space was amazing. The views can’t be beat. The blind in the living room looking to space x doesn’t rise so that was a bummer but not that big of a deal. The kitchen is well appointed.

The view is so impressive, a favorite feature of this condo for sure. Thank you for taking such great care of our property, we welcome you back anytime.
This is a beautiful condo with spectacular views to the east, south and west. The decor is lovely. The only problem was the lack of a book explaining how to use blinds, television, etc.
This condo is so much more wonderful than the pics could show! It is so light and bright with amazing views! We had so much too
For our 3 teenagers and could have brought 4 more people easily. The walk to the beach is super quick, and the pool was so nice and refreshing. The jets didn’t work in master tub, but it’s not like we spent much time in the tub!
