Delightful in every way.
We stayed for 1 month and we had a great experience. The unit is exactly as described and pictured. The unit is well furnished with everything you need. The appliances, TV and internet connection are excellent. The resort amenities are outstanding. Our host, Sam, was extremely helpful and communicative. We would recommend it to anyone.

Excellent Accommodations
Saphire was probably the nicest place my wife and I have ever stayed on the beach. Excellent accommodations, location, and the staff was very professional and courteous. The owner's communications were quick and clear, and the condo unit was excellent. We were very pleased overall with our experience with everything.

About the host

Hosted by Sam Whitworth

Host profile image
Sam grew up in the Valley and Abby spent a week on South Padre Island every summer while growing up. Although we live in Austin now, SPI has a very special place in both of our hearts! We have been here at every time of year, with our 3 boys, with friends, and with just the two of us, and no matter the situation we always love our time on the island. Some of our favorite memories include boogie boarding, banana boat rides, parasailing, fishing, building sandcastles, searching for shells and just going for long walks on the beach. Whether you are looking to relax or looking for adventure, South Padre Island offers it all!
