We brought our children and most of the grandchildren to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. The place is just as shown. The 3 levels allow privacy and the common areas are spacious enough for all 28 of us. Two stoves and refrigerators were appreciated as was the ice machine. The host Melissa promptly addressed any issues which was amazing given past experiences. Everyone agrees this was the perfect home to celebrate our 50th and spend time together!

We booked this property last minute after our original rental was double booked. Unfortunately, the property was in extremely poor condition, with numerous maintenance and safety concerns. The owner repeatedly referenced our last minute booking when we raised issues, but many problems appeared to be longstanding and unrelated to the timing of our reservation.We encountered active water leaks, evidence of previous water damage, what appeared to be mold around ceiling lights, loose ceiling fan fixtures, deteriorating outdoor ceilings, and coconuts falling through the tiki bar roof. Doors leading directly to the pool had alarms that did not sound when opened, raising additional safety concerns since we had several young children.The upstairs AC never cooled below 81 degrees, several bed frames were broken or unstable, forcing our group to rearrange sleeping conditions, and cleanliness was poor. Numerous amenities were unusable, including the ice maker, tiki bar TVs, refrigerators, basketball goal, and dock water spigot. The beach contained trash and debris, and trailers loaded with trash occupied the parking area.Instead of enjoying our vacation, we spent time cleaning, changing bedrooms, and working around broken amenities.A last minute reservation does not excuse poor maintenance, cleanliness, or safety concerns. The conditions were so disappointing that we left two days early.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely regret that your stay did not meet your expectations. Guest comfort and safety are extremely important to us, and we take the concerns you have raised seriously. We understand that your reservation was made on short notice due to an unexpected change in your original accommodations. However, we never want a guest to feel that their circumstances or concerns are being dismissed. After reviewing your concerns, we discovered the leak you mentioned was created by someone wrongfully using a portable a/c unit that was in storage. The unit was not properly vented causing a major water leak upstairs costing thousands of dollar's worth of costly repairs to the 1st, 2nd, & 3rd floor. At the time we informed you to turn of the portable unit and we received no response from you. The air-conditioning was cooling to 72 degrees which are verified by monitoring system. These air conditioners are brand new and any problems you incurred were caused by doors being left open allowing humidity to come in. There are alarms on the doors, all you need to do is turn them on and they work fine. We checked them. Also, the doors are impact sliders and are very hard for a child to open. You mentioned we did not have amenities, meaning the outdoor tiki tv's which are not a listed amenity. The outside trailer was there because we are performing seasonal work and has no bearing on your stay. Any and all minimal repairs issues during your stay such as the ice machine was mitigated with us providing you as many bags of ice as you needed and you were repeatedly told of a second ice machine at our downstairs bar. The beach was 100 percent cleaned up before you arrived but there is nothing, we can do about unnaturally high king tides. As to water at the dock, it was never listed as an amenity as well as the tv's at the tikis. They are there for your convenience but are not listed as an amenity. We take maintenance and safety matters seriously and are reviewing the concerns mentioned in your review to ensure that any necessary repairs and improvements are addressed. Constructive feedback is always important however when the guest causes most of the damage themselves we take it with a grain of salt. However, all repairs have been made to Seaside Sandpiper so no further problems should arise. In summation, the issues you informed us about during your stay were addressed immediately and some of your complaints were made post stay and the majority of the issues were caused by you and your party. Furthermore, you attempted to extort money to prevent a bad review and told us so. Also, you left one day early to book an extremely expensive hotel at your choosing not because you couldn't stay at our home. We want all our guests to have wonderful stays, but we cannot fix what we don't know about and what people don't tell us what damage they've done.

Pool was the highlight of the house! Kitchen was well equipped and was nice to have two stoves for cooking. Volleyball court and basketball court should not be listed as an amenity. Volleyball court was basically gravel and was looking forward to having a family tournament. Luckily sombrero park was nearby. House could use a deep cleaning, some door handles would fall off. Blackstone was quite greasy/ dirty. Breakers would trip and the light in the dining area smoked one night while it was on. House accommodated our large group. Younger adults enjoyed the pool table. Other than a few maintenance needs I would recommend this listing.

Hello Jenny! Thank you so much for your feedback! Your review is very important to us and we hear your concerns.

I am glad to hear you all had a great time. It was evident every time I saw you. We can offer a beautiful home with all of the amenities in the amazing Florida Keys, but you have to do the rest and enjoy your time. And you and your group knew how to do that. Some could take a lesson. The absolute best thing about this job is the fantastic people I meet along the way.....You all were certainly that!!!! Hope to see you again.

I am glad you had such a great time, and I so appreciate the difficulty in getting a family that size together for a whole 7 days, and you ladies pulled it off, my hat's off to you. I know you contacted me and said you meant to leave a 5 star review, and somehow it came out as 4. No worries, when I stopped by to visit and check on you, I saw you were having a 5 star vacation.

Perfect for Family Getaway

Our family likes to travel together, and we are a big group! There was 21 of us staying at the home and it was perfect. The home was like our own private resort. The kitchen was plenty big for us to all cook in. The bedrooms were comfortable and clean. It is very close to grocery stores and walking distance to Sombrero Beach. We will definitely be coming back!

New years

What a wonderful property for our biennial family vacation. With 20 plus family members aged 76 to 10 this was the perfect house. Lots of bedrooms to spread out and a fabulous pool/hot tub to hang out by. All the water toys plus pool table and shuffleboard kept everyone entertained. Only issue was a faulty air conditioner on the third floor but the hosts addressed the problem in a timely matter.

Best VRBO I have been too

This is the best VRBO we have stayed at and we have stayed at many in the US and Caribbean. We stayed with family and friends (16 of us) for my husbands 60th birthday! It has everything you could need and then some. Property is more beautiful than the pictures. Sherry the property manager was very easy to work with and prompt on returning emails/texts and getting anything done we needed (which was not much). I would highly recommend this property and will hopefully be going back again!

Perfect Vacation House for Group Trip & Casual, Beach Wedding!

We were searching the Keys for the perfect spot to host our beach wedding, and we are so happy we chose to book Sandpiper! The house is amazing - the perfect spot for a large group to spend the week together. We held our ceremony & reception in the back yard, and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue. Sherry was so helpful & responsive, and made sure that we were fully accommodated. The house itself is an amazing space to host a large group - updated & comfortable inside, with plenty of space & amenities to accommodate large groups, plus the huge pool and tiki bar! The property will always hold a special memory for us, and we hope to return one day!

Great extended family property!

24 family members stayed for a week at Seaside Sandpiper. Everyone remarked about having the right amount of privacy and common space. Centrally located in the Florida Keys easy to access other activities. The pool/hot tub beach side is amazing! Tiki bar with TV for watching sports or whatever is your thing. There is a shared dock for kayaking/paddle boarding from or rent a boat and keep it there. Fishing from the dock was great fun too. We saw a Manatee from the dock too. Dolphins swam by several mornings. We also enjoyed watching the sea birds. Grocery stores, restaurants and other activities were close and convenient. Great family vacation! I highly recommend this property.

Beautiful home

The home was beautiful and very clean. Melissa was wonderful to work with. She was prompt to get back to me. There was a construction noise issue from the lot next door. We panicked a bit because we were having our son’s wedding on that Thursday. We contacted Melissa to see what could be done. The next day she got back with us and no construction on wedding day! Melissa went above and beyond for us. The home is a wonderful vacation spot and an even better wedding venue! At night everything lights up!

Family getaway x19

Overall -a perfect set up for a large extended family with a range of ages. Many outdoor activities on the property. The pool and hot tub are amazing . The house is huge with private corridors (bed and bath) for individual families to be near one another. Kitchen and dining perfect for our large crowd. Hosts Carmen and Sherry very helpful thru out the week *Some improvements that could be made easily- improved wifi and tv service (basketball fans had trouble watching the NCAA games, when the littles needed down time out of the sun, Netflix connections were not good) cleanliness (this house could use a really good deep cleaning) , some of the hinged exterior doors wouldn’t stay closed in the wind,and a safety concern- you can’t lock this house up at night or if you are leaving it on a day trip. All that aside, EVERYONE in our family had a wonderful time here, and we hope to be back again some day!
