My wife, kids (ages 6 & 8), and my parents stayed here the week of August 12-19. We had a great time. My daughter walked from the front porch to the water and it was only 33 kid steps. The location and views are AMAZING.
We fished from the dock almost every morning and afternoon and caught bonefish and small snapper. We saw a few small permit, and tarpon the last morning as well.
In addition to the location Sapphire Beach Resort has a crew of about 6 guys that take the sea grass from the shore line daily. One "complaint" I heard from other people about Ambergris Caye is the sea grass makes getting into the water difficult. Not at Sapphire. That was a nice touch.
I was expecting the living room and kitchen to be small based on the photos, but was pleasantly surprised that they were bigger than I thought they'd be. The villa was clean, and very comfortable. The kitchen had just enough supplies, and we made breakfast daily, and dinner five times while we were there.
We reserved two 4-seat golf carts through Sapphire and they were ready and waiting for us upon arrival. We took them to town twice, Secret Beach, and Tranquility Bay. The roads aren't very good, but it added to the adventure of the trip. The trip to town for us was 45-60 minutes.
Sally was very easy to work with and communicate with. She contacted us while we were there to let us know the dryer wasn't working. But instead of just letting us know it wasn't working she had a solution to the problem. She contacted Sapphire and arranged to have the staff dry our clothes with their dryers. A lot of VRBO and Air BnB owners wouldnt take the extra step to find a solution to the problem. Thanks, Sally!
I have already recommended this place to a friend and would definitely stay here again.
