Why the Owner Chose Sandpiper Village
When we bought our Villa, we looked at many different resorts in several different states before deciding on Sandestin. It offered a combination of location, amenities (beach, golf, restaurants, shopping) and beauty second to none that swept us off our feet. Sandpiper Village captivated us due to its warmth and openness and we were struck by the amount of open space surrounding the homes. This space makes Sandpiper one of the most family friendly neighborhoods in the resort with easy access to the amenities which are still just far enough away to preserve the peace and quiet of the neighborhood. Our kids and their families love the backyard area where they can play games while we sit on the patio watching with a morning cup of coffee or an evening glass of wine. We know your family will have the same experiences.
The Unique Benefits at this Villa
We furnished our Villa with the idea that it would be a true vacation/beach home. With that in mind, we decorated in warm, bright colors that remind you constantly that you’re on vacation at the beach. It is very large for a two bedroom villa – larger than almost any other floor plan. The kids and grandkids love having the separate sunroom where they can watch their own TV or movies without the “grown-ups”, while the adults enjoy the huge adjacent living room. The home is well equipped so that even though you’re on vacation there won't be a lot you will be missing. We’re sure your family will enjoy our home as much as ours does!

Hi, J.L. I just wanted to thank you for everything you did in making our vacation in the Sandpiper retreat so special. It was the most stress-free vacation we have ever been on (drive down wasn't much fun but even that was ok). We all had a great time and thought the Sandestin area was beautiful. We received the deposit back today for the Villa. Thank you for the quick refund. I have to tell you, my kids weren't very happy with me when I made them clean the tub and sweep their bathroom before we left :) I thought it was good for them. They complain when they have to do it at our home so all was normal with that. Have a great year and hope to talk to you next summer

My family and I had a wonderful time staying at Sandpiper Village. The Villa was very clean and we felt like home immediately. The price is very reasonable and the home has a lot to offer. The website was very helpful to use and the pictures were very important to us and accurately displayed the Villa. The landscaping is beautiful and well cared for both around the home and throughout the Sandestin Resort. I really recommend this home for your beach vacation. You will NOT be disappointed. I loved the bike path and enjoyed walking my dog and riding my bike around the beautiful grounds. I felt very safe in the Village and left very relaxed and wanting to return again. J.L. was so great at answering all of our questions and stopped by to introduce herself which made us feel very welcome. We never had a problem but knew if something was to come up, J.L. would have gone above and beyond to help us. The Track is a great place to take the kids for putt putt and Go Karts. My kids loved eating at Fudpuckers and Cheeseburger in Paradise. The owner's beach is very easy to access and was very clean. Can't wait to return!
Owner response:You were great guests and neighbors. Thanks for the great review and 5 stars. Hope to see you again.

Owner response:It was great having you as part of the Village again this year. Maybe by next year we can find you one of your own. See you soon. Thanks for the great review.

Review Submitted: 06/27/11
We had a relaxing and enjoyable time at this spotlessly-clean villa. The location was very convenient to the beach, golf, biking and other activities and served our needs perfectly. The villa was even more beautiful than the pictures on the VRBO website. The beds were extremely comfortable and the kitchen was well-furnished. The beach setup had everything we needed and saved us from packing our own umbrellas and chairs. We enjoyed the shops and attractions at Baytowne Wharf and enjoyed dinner at Graffiti's there. For lunch Mitchell's offering of steamed seafood over sticky rice with ginger sauce was superb. But our favorite dining experience was right there in the villa where we had steamed shrimp from a local seafood shop along with salad and bread from the local grocery store. The week went by way too quickly, and we were sad to leave. But, we hope we can visit again! Thanks for sharing your lovely home with us.
Owner response:Bob, So glad you enjoyed the visit. You were great neighbors. Hope to see you again next year.

The Villa was exactly like the pictures. Very clean and comfortable. I thought I was going to miss being on the beach but actually enjoyed the neighborhood setting. I felt more secure and enjoyed being able to bring our Golden. I would definately like to come back next summer! However, next summer we will skip AJ's. Food and service were definately not worth the money.
Owner response:Hi Heather, So glad you enjoyed your visit. I totally agree about AJ's and all his other restaurants. Hope to see you next summer and just call me for a lot of great local food suggestions. J.L.

This is the third time we have been guest's of this property and make an effort to return each year. The condition of the villa is as pictured (excellent) and all the perks that are associated with this property are above and beyond the typical beach rental. I would highly recommend this property to friends and family without any reservation what-so-ever!
Owner response:We love having you back every year. My favorite part of your visit is watching you hose off you boys in the yard to get all the sand off before they go inside! You take great care of our villa. Thanks. See you next year.

A Great Place ! Just as it was presented in the listing photos. A Five Star Resort !! Landscaping was beautiful throughout the entire resort. The walking and biking trails throughout the resort were awesome. The Village and the Marina were an added asset. The Village had great shops, restaurants and activities for everyone. The Spitfire Mercantile at the marina had lots of cool things. Best crab cakes I've ever eaten were at Louis Louis restuarant on 98. It was great being able to take my pet on the trip. I would recommend this resort and I will definetly return.
Owner response:You girls were having a great time, we could tell. Hope to see you again next year.
Recommended for:Tourists without a car, pet owners, girls getaway, age 55+.
Also, walking/biking trail

Wonderful retreat for girl getaway with pet. Furnishings and amenities up to a five star resort standard. Landscape was delightful with view of golf course and villa was nearby to walking/bike trails and view of bay. Within walking distance of the Village with restaurants, activities, shops, and marina. We will be back. Crab cakes at Louis-Louis best ever!
Owner response:Next time you need to try the Crab-Cakes from Sarah-K. I think they are even better. Glad you girls had a great time. Hope to see you again next year.

Lovely home for your vacation. We had everything we needed down to 2 bikes to ride, beach chairs, beach towels, etc. The appliances were top notch along with the gas grill. It was a nice location-away from noise, but close even to beach and Baytowne. The home was impeccably clean and we loved the bike paths. We will definitely be back.
Owner response:Thanks for the great review and 5 stars. We would love to see you back next year.
