    ⚠️ 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.

    ➡️ 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. This brief note is to emphasize the fact that the Sapphire vigorously enforces these rules. Failure to abide by them may result in fines and eviction. Refunds will not be given to any guest that is evicted as the outcome of breaking any of the Sapphire's rules and regulations.

    As of April 2024 Sapphire guests are no longer allowed to use the pool or hot tub amenities at Margaritaville (formerly The Pearl).

Wonderful stay

The condo was great, no problems. The staff at SPI are very professional. We had one small maintenance issue and they were there in less than an hour and fixed the problem. This is the second time we have rented through SPI and have been very pleased with their service.

Nice property in a great location. Great pool. There was a hiccup with the air conditioner, took them two tries to fix it, but service was excellent and they got me taken care of. Nice to know the property manager will fix things when they need to.

Great layout

We had a great stay at this property. My only complaint would be communication with one of the reps at the property management company. She lacked greatly in customer service skills. The people who work the front desk at the resort were wonderful.

Our stay at the Sapphire was wonderful. The condo was spacious and beautiful. The huge pool and hot tub were so enjoyable. We had a small issue and called the rental company. They sent someone out immediately. We were very impressed with the customer service. I highly recommend SPI rentals and the Sapphire.

It Was Fine

Upon arrival it looked great. It was clean and nicely set up. The primary shower didn't drain properly. If someone cleaned the shower, it wouldn't be hard to notice that it didn't drain. There was only 3 intact coffee mugs. We were comfortable and enjoyed the view from the north end of the property.

Weekend getaway

I planed a last minute weekend get away for our family. I paid for this condo and I hadn’t heard anything about checkin or if we even had the condo it kept showing “pending”. I had to call the company because you can’t directly call the owners and see if we even had it on THE DAY we were supposed to leave. I then got sent all the ppw thank god I called! Communication was very poor. Condo was beautiful but maybe invest in some new cleaning ppl. Shower and toilet had hair on them. They didn’t have any other comforters/big blankets so if you’re a blanket person like me take some extra. Also they didn’t have any salt, or any spices or nothing. Most condos I’ve stay at have kept things like that. They have utensils but nothing more.Otherwise beautiful location, steps to the beach, pool was nice even but you can’t have your own speakers just headphones. Margaritaville was jamming next door and has a bar (which you can walk over and get drinks from) looked very nice, but if you want to swim there you have to pay a daily rate.

Amazing

The condo was amazing! It is absolutely worth it to stay at the sapphire. Not a single complaint. Spectacular views beautifully decorated. The best part of booking this vacation was the staff at SPI RENTALS. The team there is top notch. Friendly knowledgeable and patient with all our questions and concerns. We will only be booking with them from now on. Considerably cheaper than booking through big booking sites. Will absolutely booking this condo again. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

Needs some amenities.

Disappointed that no beach/ pool towels provided. There's also the issue that the 3rd bedroom has a 2 way mirror shared with dining area. At night, the lights from the hotel next door shines directly into bedroom, making sleeping there very uncomfortable. The master bathroom needs to be re-grouted, the grout is stained making it look unclean.

Perfect condo for our anniversary

We had a very good stay with SPI Rentals and the Sapphire for our anniversary. The condo 1501 was absolutely beautiful and was everything we had hoped it would be. It was extremely clean and well maintained. We loved being right there on the beach and the views of the ocean were beautiful. The staff at SPI Rentals listened to everything we wanted out of our rental and helped us pick the perfect place for our romantic getaway. We highly recommend this condo at the Sapphire and SPI Rentals. We will certainly be back for another visit.

Condo 1501 was not ready for rentals

Very sad to see such a beautifully decorated condo with a bad view… looking directly on the dirty roof top of the Pearl, A/C not working, dishwasher wouldn't turn on, master bedroom blind wouldn't shut so hot sun shinning straight to the bed at 6am on a weekend. Way to expensive to have non stop issues!
