I liked the layout of the club and its size. Even though it was busy and there was a line to get in, there was plenty of room to move around. The floormen can seat you at a reserved table if you ask and tip, but we found one group leaving as we arrived and took their table. By asking around, we managed to get chairs for our full group of 8.

Like I said, I generally liked the look and feel of the club. The only bad thing about the large size of the place was that if you saw a girl you liked, you had better get her attention fast or it could be a while before she came back around. This can be a good thing if you are like the half of my friends who enjoy a wide variety of women; as Sapphire has all types. However, for those like myself and the other half of my friends who prefer generally stick to a prefered "type", it can be a little for work to find a lady you like and for her to come back. I like girls with a more alternative look (tattoos, piercings, etc.) and I saw one early on in the night, but she was pretty popular and it took a few hours before she made it back towards our end of the room and before I could make my move, my friend was all over her. Of course the flip side of this was that there always seemed to be a few girls coming over for the first time. The young lady I ended getting the most dances from was gorgeous and had a great personality. My friends and other people in our area were staring at us, not only because she one of the better looking in the club, but she had not been in our area before. The people at the next table (a couple) quickly had her go over as soon as she and I were finished.

I had heard some complaints about high pressure to do VIP. I didn't really encounter that. A few girls mentioned VIP, but that was about it. No real push. VIP was $160 plus drink minimum. I did not do it so I can't comment on it. Two of my friends did. One managed to be back there for 2 or 3 hours. We saw him and the girl come out to the ATM and go back. He refused to tell anyone how much he spent, but he did cut his vacation short and left Vegas a day early so I would guess it probably was at least as much as the next day's gaming budget.
