About this property

NEW! Penthouse Jr * Unrivaled Luxury * Insane Views

  • Sapphire 2901 sits on the 29th floor of the tallest building on South Padre

    Island - a junior Penthouse with three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and

    three patios that take in both the Gulf and the bay at once.

    Floor-to-ceiling windows and 16 to 24-foot ceilings run throughout. The views,

    the space, and the address are not available at this level anywhere else on

    this island. Maximum eight guests — intentionally, by design.

    The kitchen is fully open-concept, flowing into two separate sitting areas and

    the living room — everything connected, nothing cut off. It is stocked with

    pots, pans, dishes, and utensils for full home cooking, with full-sized

    stainless appliances and a wine fridge.



    The oversized picture window above the kitchen counter frames an unobstructed

    view straight down the length of the island — a detail unique to this south

    tower position. Smart TVs are set up throughout the unit; we do not provide

    cable, so stream from your own apps. There is a full-sized washer and dryer.



    Five reasons to book over every other listing on the island:



    Sapphire’s amenity list has no equal: longest pool and heated jacuzzi on the

    island, 24/7 concierge desk, cutting-edge private fitness center, group movie

    theater, teen and adult game room



    The bayside balcony has a built-in gas grill for guest use — penthouse height

    with the ability to actually cook outside



    Two of three bedrooms have King beds — the sleeping arrangement works as well

    for two couples traveling together as it does for a family



    SpaceX launches on the southern horizon, fireworks over the bay, the causeway

    lit at night, and the entire island laid out below — what this view delivers

    on any given evening is why guests rebook



    South end next to Margaritaville Resort bar & restaurants, steps from Sea

    Ranch Fine Dining, Russo’s Italian, Kohnami Sushi, and Johnny Rockets — in a

    different class from everything around it



    The unit comes with a starter supply of coffee, creamer, sweetener, decaf, and

    tea, plus hand soaps, dish soap, trash bags, paper towels, toilet paper, non-

    stick cooking spray, and salt and pepper. Starter amounts only — not

    replenished but sufficient.

    Crisp, fresh towels and linens are provided on all beds. A queen airbed with

    pump and a full-sized couch are available for additional sleeping; please

    bring your own bedding if you plan to use either. Beach gear is not provided —

    chairs, umbrellas, and poolside cabanas can be reserved through the Sapphire

    concierge or front desk for an additional fee.



    SLEEPING (Up to 8 Guests)

    The master bedroom has a King bed and an en suite bath with both a jetted tub

    and a walk-in quartz shower. The walk-in closet is, in a word, enormous.

    The second bedroom also has a King bed with a half bath and its own private

    second entrance to the penthouse — ideal when two couples or family groups

    want to come and go completely independently.

    The third bedroom has two full beds and a full en suite bath finished in white

    quartz and tile. The 8-guest maximum includes infants and babies and cannot be

    exceeded.



    BUILDING AMENITIES

    Sapphire’s amenity footprint is unmatched on the island. The pool is the

    longest and largest private pool on South Padre Island, paired with a heated

    jacuzzi. The fitness center is private and the best-equipped on the island.

    The building also has a group movie theater, a teen and adult game room, and a

    concierge desk staffed 24/7. EV charging is available in the garage at an

    additional cost. Free covered parking for 2 vehicles is included Sapphire is

    located next to the Margaritaville resort — it is a more exclusive property by

    every measure than that hotel however



    PARKING

    Two vehicle permits are included - A golf cart is considered a vehicle and

    counts as one of the two permits. No additional permits are available for

    purchase. Parking here is included at no charge, unlike hotels on the island

    that bill for every car. Free parking along Gulf Blvd exists as overflow but

    is not guaranteed and is not nearby.



    RESORT FEE

    A $57 plus tax per day resort fee is charged by Sapphire and is already

    INCLUDED in your grand total — there is no surprise at check-in. For guests

    booking 30 consecutive days or more, this fee is reduced to a flat $250, which

    is charged manually after booking.



    WIFI

    Spectrum is the only internet provider on the island and service can be

    spotty. WiFi unavailability is not a basis for cancellation, refund, or

    reimbursement. Please arrive with a hotspot enabled on your phone if you have

    critical work to complete during your stay.



    PETS

    Animals of any kind are prohibited at this property under the building HOA —

    this includes service animals. Guests traveling with a service animal should

    contact us before booking so we can assist with alternative accommodations.



    CHECK-IN

    To comply with city requirements, all guests must e-sign a rental agreement

    and provide a photo ID after booking. In addition,

    Sapphire requires its own separate guest information documents via DocuSign —

    these are 100% required to receive access and refusal to complete them is not

    grounds for a refund. Access to the property is by electronic key card, which

    the primary guest receives at the front desk after presenting a valid ID.

    Complex quiet hours run from 9 PM to 9 AM. The pool and jacuzzi are open 9 AM

    to 9 PM. No smoking anywhere in the unit, on the patios, or in common areas.

    No parties, no events, no unregistered guests — including in the pool area. No

    BBQ on the property except the built-in electric grill on the bayside balcony.

    In March, the primary guest must be 30 years of age and you MAY NOT mix guests

    nor family. It is immediately faimly only.

    Check in documents for sapphire are required a minimum of 3 days in advance.

    You cannot be checked in if you do not submit them. Our office will remind

    you, however you must fill them out and it is not a reason for a cancel and

    refund if you do not

    Please note we have multiple units available at sapphire and can accommodate

    more than one group — just ask, we would love to help.



    DISCOUNTS — JUST ASK

    Reduced rates for off-season stays (September 15 – December 15), veterans and

    active military, and current Texas tackle football coaches — our sons play for

    Lake Travis in Austin. Send a message and ask.



    POLICIES

    Primary guest must be 25 or older. A primary guest under 25 never allowed. In

    March - 30. A signed digital rental agreement and valid photo ID are required

    before check-in. Strict cancellation policy applies. No unregistered guests,

    no extra vehicles. No smoking, no parties, no loud music at any time.

    company on South Padre Island, with 24/7 phone support. Office at 2600 Padre

    Blvd, open 7 days a week.
