Host was responsive and friendly.We loved the location and amenities. Our only concern was that no cleaning supplies or tp was provided for the entire stay. That should have been spelled out somewhere. This was a first for us; anywhere else we've stayed enough supplies are provided.

Sandpiper Cove is convenient to many good restaurants, shopping, and grocery stores. The condo is more spacious than the pictures appear. The furniture and bedding is also very comfortable. We were provided with enough towels, soap, and other amentities. I liked being next to the pool. It was very relaxing to sit by the pool as well as the condo balcony at night. While we love that they are pet friendly, we felt that it was not an ideal set up for walking our dogs since it is near the golf areas.

We loved the area and convenience! The pool is right across from the condo and the private beach access makes everything so easy. Loved being so close to the Sand Flea for restroom, snacks and drinks. The actual condo was very clean and had everything we needed!

My family absolutely loved this property! There was stuff for everyone to do. Loved the location of being near the heated pool and the golf course. The rooms were very clean and the host was very easy to work with and responded back to our questions immediately. The beach was a short walk away but there was plenty of parking as well. My kids enjoyed fishing along the bay the most. We will definitely be visiting again!!

We had a great stay and really enjoyed the property. The apartment was clean, comfortable, well-maintained, and exactly as described. The location is excellent, and communication with the host was very good.The only issue we experienced was at the entrance to the complex. The security guards were not aware of our reservation, and we had to wait more than 30 minutes before they issued us a gate pass, which delayed our arrival to the apartment. It would be helpful if the security staff were better informed about incoming guests to make the check-in process smoother.Other than that, everything was excellent, and we would definitely stay here again. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We love this property! It’s really lovely and the beach access is amazing. We extended our stay in Destin and needed a one night rental. We’re thankful the hosts could accommodate! The guards checked us into the community early so we had access to the beach and pools before the unit was ready. The unit itself is showing its age, but very clean and a great layout, and traveling with a large dog, we don’t care much about things being “high-end” looking. Looks right out onto the pool which was perfect with teenagers. We’re planning to come back to Sandpiper Cove next year!
