Everything was great with exception of the beach which was closed during my entire stay with the exception of 1 day for beach maintenance. I was unaware of this until I arrived. That was very disappointing given that was 1 of the main reasons for my stay. When i contacted my host she was told the beach was to remain open & was also misinformed. She did offer a partial refund. She was easy to communicate with on a timely manner and accommadations met my expectations. I would go back.

The host was welcoming. The only issue was the email sent with WiFi instructions was not correct. The correct information was in the condo. The host wanted me to call the internet company and I don't go on vacation to call a customer service provider when I am the hosts customer.

About the host

Hosted by Diane Harrison

Host profile image
I grew up visiting the Florida Panhandle in the 70's and continue to revisit the beautiful beaches as often as possible! I grew up in Nashville, Tn and now I live in the Atlanta area which is a little closer to the sandy shore.

Why they chose this property

The Sandpiper has everything you could want. I fell in love with the community atmosphere and the beach pavilion. Order drinks or lunch beach side at Rick's Sandtrap. (just remember it's cash only)

What makes this property unique

Choose from 5 pools in the complex and play the 9 holes of pitch and putt all day for free. You can borrow clubs at Sandpiper but they need to be returned at 5:00, so I recommend bringing your own.
