The condo was beautiful! Very clean and we loved the beach vibe from all of the colors and decorations. The location was super convenient to both the beach (right outside) and great restaurants! The beach was beautiful- not too crowded and the weather and water were perfect. It was all we needed to have the most relaxing week! The staff were available should we have needed anything but there were no issues at all. We loved our stay and are definitely coming back. It was our best vacation ever!! Thank you!!

Enjoy our stay from mid January to mid Feb of 2017. Sandpiper was a nice place to relax, to enjoy the sea breezes and the other guests we met were very nice and friendly. Our accommodations were clean and comfortable with exception of a couple of minor problems, kitchen stovetop was tilled back which lead to skillets sliding off the burners and the softener holder in the washing machine would fall out when the clothes spun but most of our stay was uneventful. We really enjoyed our stay at Sandpiper and wanted to re-rent our unit but were told it had been rent to someone else next year so we didn't get 1st choice to rent it for a second year. Sad as we were we did rent another unit in the same building. See you next year and hope the weather will be as warm.

The sandpiper is always our favorite place to stay. It is only a short walk to the beach and the property is clean and well kept. We have stayed in 3 different units and they have all been great. 3c is no exception. It has plenty of room and was well maintained. We would stay here again without hesitation.

The condo we stayed in was the favorite among our group as far as comfort and eye appeal. We did have some issues with the dishwasher but hope it was taken care of. We have stayed there several times before and always had a great time. We love the fact that there are only three floors.

We had four persons occupy this unit over a four day weekend. One person utilized the pull out sofa with both ease and comfort. All appliances were in great working order, and we had all the plates, bowls, glasses, cups and utensils we needed. The WiFi was excellent and the television was in good working order. We experienced no maintenance issues while in the unit. I would gladly use it again.

We have stayed at Sandpiper about 14 times over the years, but this was the first time in this particular condo. The new owner has made several upgrades and it was a pleasure to stay in this one. Only issue is the weak WI-FI , need to upgrade the Sandpiper WI-FI as it was hard to obtain sometimes----not a big problem but needs to be done.

We personally have been coming to the sandpiper for about 13 years. That says enough about our satisfaction in it self. Some of our group has been coming for more than 25 years. We now have between 50 and 60 people in our group from Louisville Ky. and three other states. We are a great group of friends and family who thoroughly enjoy our stay each year at the sandpiper. With that being said we would greatly appreciate the owners consideration of the possible construction of a board walk to the beach. It would eliminate 150 feet of deep sand to traverse. Not to mention the benefits for the handicap. Since the new Gulf Shores beach ordinance has passed it has made it necessary to make many more trips as to leave nothing more than footprints. We would greatly appreciate your consideration in this matter. Thanks so much. We will be back.

We were pleased with the accomodations. The king bed and two full beds made sleeping more comfortable and roomy. Washer, Dryer, and fridge we better than last years condo. Internet service was much worse. We like being closer to the ocean without the grill noise and smoke, but being on a higher floor helped. Condo itself was in better shape than what we have had in the last 3 years.

It was just ok. Unit was clean enough and essentially comfortable. Had trouble figuring out TV in living room. It's holiday weekend so lots of people, seemingly all knowing each other were having parties in the common areas. Parking was also difficult at times as larger SUVs frequently took up multiple spots.

We have been coming for years and we love it. The cleaning fee has risen each year but the actual cleaning has declined horribly. The toilets were filthy, the mirror wall had hand prints all over. Dishes in the cabinets were still wet when we arrived. We will still be coming back because sandpiper is home but we come knowing we have to clean our own condo. The furniture needs some upgrades

Everything was okay with our visit other than the condition of the condo. It was filty dirty and from the dust it had not been cleaned in months. It was far cleaner when we left it but we had to pay a cleaning fee. The kitchen was also very poorly equipped and nasty also. I sent pictures of the broiler pans and most all the pots pans had flaking teflon and stove top was black. Made cooking a real problem. The shower head in the master was loosely hanging on a plastic pipe and had nearly no flow because the diverter spout was leaking so bad. A $10 fix. The problem is not with you guys. All of you were first class. The problem is with the condo owner. It was not fit or ready to lease. We like Bender, GS, and Sandpiper. Been doing it for years and will continue. In 20 years this is the first time we have actually had unresolvable problems. I guess we should have been more vocal but not the way we want to spend our vacation not to mention you guys I don't think own the place. The people that you paid to clean that unit should be back charged and credited to our account. We would recommend this property to a friend if it was cleaned and maintained properly and would highly recommend Bender RE.

We were referred by a friend to use Bender Realty and stay at Sandpiper. We are so thankful for his recommendation. Bender Realty was wonderful to work with and the Sandpiper was the perfect place for our family. We have a special needs daughter, who can become over stimulated easily. So this condominium complex was more suited for her needs. The open deck layout allowed for us to get to know our neighbors. Everyone was so nice and it really had a community feel to it. The pool was the perfect size and the easy beach access was great! We would definitely recommend Bender Realty and The Sandpiper. Sidenote: The first day we had a problem with the shower head, we called Bender Realty from the concierge phone located in the condo and a maintenance man was there in 15 mins! Great customer service!
