Relaxing atmosphere, right on the beach with beach views from the patio. Will definitely try to stay here again.

This unit had a beautiful view of the water from the living room. The decor was aesthetically pleasing and not cluttering. This space worked perfectly for my family of 4. The master bed wasn't super comfy, but not terrible either. The place was cozy and very enjoyable for our stay.

We had such a great time! Check in was easy. The condo was clean and well maintained. Our Keurig broke the first morning there and they had a brand new Keurig/coffee pot combo there within the hour. There were other families there with children, so my child was able to make new friends. Everyone was very friendly.
I would definitely stay there again and would recommend the property to anyone wanting to vacation in the area.

We have been staying at the Sandpiper for 23 years now. 4C is a lovely well stocked unit. The king bed was very uncomfortable but that is our only complaint.

Online the check in time is 11:00am but when we arrived it was being cleaned and then had to be inspected so we did not check in till 3:30…also some of the outlets didn’t work or the plug wouldn’t stay in

Really close to gulf. What impressed me the most was the facility was very clean and secure. I don’t have a lot of experience in condos but this was really great. Also the enclosed balcony was a nice touch.

The check in was easy. Bender was alway available to answer my questions. The condo was very clean. All appliances and everything worked as they should. One of the elevators periodically was not working. The staff was told about this. It left one elevator fully functional. I like the fact that we had covered parking .We had a great stay although the weather could have cooperated better, one of our days it lightning all day so we couldn’t swim or use the pool the whole day. We would definitely stay again and would hope for better weather.

We had a great time even with the rain which wasn’t your fault. The condo was perfect for us. The condo was clean and very nice. It is in a great location, not right in the middle of all the restaurants and souvenir shops but close enough. It was not my first time to stay at the Sandpiper but always my first choice. It being a smaller condo is one of the things I love about it but I’m sure that is why it’s harder to reserve because I’m sure everyone that stays there feels the same. Love it!

Condo was beautiful, no complaints. Only issue was the elevators were out of use at least twice a day. Neighbors had a loud party last night of our stay. Music was vey loud and shaking the walls. I'm usually one to not complain but this was worth the complaint. Security came and resolved the issue. Very nice man!

Great location. No buildings east of property. Short walk to state pier. Construction on immediate west side of property but was not a noise factor. Plenty of parking. Realty description was accurate. Property was clean but there was sand on the floor throughout. Great service from Bender Realty. So easy to work with. Sleeper sofa sheets were missing. Called realtor and were sent right away. The shower in bedroom had bad leak. Drip was loud even with towel in bottom of shower. Could hear it through closed bathroom door. Left word with realtor about the problem when departed.

We really liked this little condo! Very pretty inside! Location was also good. The only problem we had at all was ants, and it honestly may be a hard problem to control with the location unsure. Overall we loved the little place and would stay there again!
