Condo was nice although needed some updating. Rug in living room needs replacing. Ceiling fans needed cleaning and floor boards. Plug in bathroom did not work and shower curtain fell due to shower rod. But called and maintenance was sent promptly within 2 hours. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend. Pool very nice and beach very close. Proximity is close to restaurants within driving distance.

Great Condo and decoration Cons, Carpet could have been cleaner and most A/C plugs need to be replaced. everything else location landscaping was perfect and well groomed. Staff was cleaning up the grounds as late as 1:30 in the morning, very quiet and i thought it was a guest. all was very polite. We had a great stay. One more thing your WiFi does not work, down load speed was .85kps Should be completely replaced.

Bender realty was good to work with. Condo definitely needs updating. Had to replace light bulbs in LR/DR in order to see/read. Thus with bright lights carpet stains showed. Master bathroom's tub needs repair. Several maintenance calls made. Policy to reserve next year is not adequate

I love this condo complex. From the beach to the pool to the available grill, this complex is a great vacation destination. We rented unit 3A, which has a nice walk-in shower with a seat and grab bars. This was perfect for my health/mobility situation.

It was our family first visit to Gulf Shores and it was an awesome vacation!! The condo we stayed in was clean, up to-date and the people were very friendly! On our next visit we will be staying with Bender Realty!!! I think our only complaint (which had nothing to do with Bender or their staff) was the kids that were staying the unit above us that were jumping til 2-3 in the morning, when quite time was at 10, but like i said that had nothing to do with Bender just some kids on vacation!!

My daughters and I LOVED our stay at Sandpiper 3A. Plenty of room in the condo and stocked with what we needed. The beach access was my favorite :) Just a short walk and you're there. The condo was clean and very neat and had wifi (which is so important with kids..ha!). We never used the pool area, but it was very nice looking. I also LOVED the location. It wasn't in a crowded/congested area which is important to me because I came to relax. I would definitely stay here again. The Bender Realty folks made the process easy and pleasant as well!

We had a great week with our kids and love the set up of the condo; the furniture and decor are very nice. We were surprised that we had to do some cleaning upon arrival (fridge was very dirty, needed to vacuum the carpet and wipe kitchen table). We have four kids so we don't feel that our expectations were unrealistic. We enjoyed the beach, pool, and the yummy smells from the grill. This was our third trip and we hope to be back. The Bender Realty staff are so helpful and nice.

Although not a fan of carpet in a Beach Rental, the unit was in good condition. Could use a couple updates such as new king mattress and new recliner. Both were worn pretty well. The kitchen was nice, loved the island.

The ladies in customer service were friendly, and knowledgeable. The app was extremely helpful. Also, the keypad on the door was so much better than having to keep track of a key. The whole property was very well maintained and we loved the location. The actual unit could have used some updating, especially the kitchen, bathrooms and living room furniture. The main bathroom toilet seat was in bad shape, could definitely use a replacement. That being said, we really liked the layout (fit 5 comfortably) and overall it was great.

The condo was very nice and clean but the master bedroom mattress was in horrible condition and in need to be replaced. Also, the living room couch and chair both are in poor condition too. When sitting on the couch you can feel the bars from the sofa bed. Very uncomfortable.

Reviewer Comments:
The place was clean and well-equipped for our family of 6. The only issue we had was that while we arrived early, we didn’t get access to our condo despite it being cleaned for hours. The front desk screwed up and the cleaning company was the reason we actually got in at 5pm on a Saturday. They watched us sit outside the condo for 4 hours while every other renter got into theirs. Then the front desk had the nerve to say, “Well, you got in at 5 and that is the time we guarantee.” She completely missed the point - there was no follow up from them at all. However, the condo and the location was amazing! We would definitely rent 3A again. We cooked meals in there most nights. The beds were amazing! We slept really well. Thank you!

We love staying at Sandpiper. The people are always the friendliest, the staff is always helpful at Bender & we love the fact that it is a short walk to the beach. The only suggestion we have is an upgrade in mattresses in the unit we stayed in & clean the ceiling fans & under the beds at least once a month. There was a used bar of soap left in one of the bathrooms in out unit also. The coffee pot broke but it was replaced within an hour of us calling. We will always stay at Sandpiper as long as we can get a reservation.

We always enjoy the Sandpiper. We have coming to this property since 1988. I would say that I felt that 3A was a bit disappointing compared to other units I have rented over the history. I felt that the furniture and the kitchen was very "old". Coffee pot leaked, not enough pans, couch and chairs not comfortable. Again, we love the Sandpiper, just not crazy about 3A.

We had a great time and the property is in a great location. The couch could use an upgrade, and they only gave a dish rag no towel, I probably could have called and requested one but we were having too much fun on the beach. The teenagers we had loved both the beach and the pool. The other guests were all friendly. The only other thing the bed in the Master bedroom was soooo loud any time you got in or out it was loud. Other than that our stay was amazing and we will be back.
