Destin Bound Again - Augusta, GA
This was the fourth time I have totally enjoyed this condo. I was surprised this year by so many updates. The granite counter tops in the kitchen and bathroom are beautiful and very modern. The new sofa and love seat are very nice and comfortable. I must say the owner has great taste and makes all accommodations to make her guests feel very "at home" during their stay.

Wonderful Stay
I came to your condo in July for a girls getaway. We had such a great time! The updates to your condo are beautiful! The new sofas are soft and comfortable and your granite counters are gorgeous! They are an excellent addition to your beautiful beach oasis. By day we enjoyed soaking up sun rays on the sparkling gulf coast using the private beach access provided when staying at your condo. By night we enjoyed cocktails overlooking the golf course and canal. I recommend your beautiful home to my friends and family every chance I get. I cannot wait to come again next summer. Thank you for sharing your gorgeous beach condo with us!

Thank-you for the wonderful comments, we are so glad to hear you had a great “girls-getaway” vacation … and, I agree, we enjoy having cocktails or wine in the evenings on the balcony, especially when the sun is setting … it’s really nice to know our guests appreciate all the upgrades we made this year and recommend our condo to their friends … We look forward to you visiting again next summer.

Best Vacation Ever
My husband and I rented this condo in May and for the first time since our son started college was able to join us. We had a blast! This condo is top notch and offers everything you need to have a wonderful vacation. We have rented this condo on previous vacations and really look forward to what the owner is going to surprise us with next. From tile flooring to granite countertops, new living room sofas, and the new mattresses, each vacation brings us a new updated surprise. As a family, we enjoyed every amenity this property has to offer as well; pools, hot tubs, golf course, Ricks Sand Trap, (who doesn't love a nice cold drink in the sun), the beach chairs, and thoroughly enjoyed wining and dining at Louisiana Lagniappe (twice). A really nice pleasure after a long day in the sun is a fantastic restaurant on the premises. We also enjoyed Bart Rockett's Magic Show at Harbor Walk and for the first time I went parasailing with my son. It was amazing! The view of the most gorgeous beach in the world from 800 feet in the sky was breathtaking. We could see the entire bay area as well as the Emerald Coast. It was one of the best vacations we have ever had. My husband and I have already booked a week in November for his birthday and we can't wait!!

I found areas that were dirty and dusty - I could just tell that the property could have been better cleaned up due to its age. The bathroom could have had a lighter shower curtain so that I wasn't showering in "the dark". its the little things that some people do not notice if they are not there to experience it on a regular basis. Speaking of the bathroom, I told the management that the tub stopper would not stay up, so the water was collecting at my feet when I took a shower. Other things: When I moved the coffee table to do stretches and yoga...there was a dried up piece of sandwich underneath that never got found - scared me half to death thinking it was a mouse! Also, the TV was stuck on Nickelodeon, no matter what controller I used, and even tried to reprogram it - nothing would work but the power button and the volume. That was frustrating because I couldn't watch the news to learn more about Storm Ida while I was there. There were no tissues to blow my nose, and no paper towels to clean up the food that was left behind by the other tenant, I had to use toilet paper for all that - also frustrating. I had to leave a day early because of the storm. I feel this feedback is fair, considering the price I paid for such a place. Wasn't bad, but a bit overpriced for what was available to me in the room. Which was not much. i like the management and the condo area, the room was less desirable. I will come back, just not to that room LOL. Bed was VERY comfortable. But I had to wrap towels around the bottom corner legs because the room was so small and I ran into those just once and freaked out about breaking my toes from stubbing them...large bed in a small room with sharp -cornered bed posts hidden by the long comforter spelled disaster. The room could use a bit more updating and common sense.

If the unit was not cleaned to your satisfaction the rental agency should have been contacted immediately to come out and remedy the situation. The rental agreement details what is provided in the unit for your stay. Paper towels and tissues are not provided but there are adequate dish towels, bath towels and wash cloths provided as well as two rolls of toilet paper as specified. I am sorry the TV was too complicated for you to manage but I would note there is another TV in the bedroom so you should have been able to monitor the weather, if that was a concern. Wi-fi was also available for your use to access weather and news apps. Again, the rental agency could have assisted you with the TV if you had contacted them. We hope that you enjoyed the beach and your stay in Destin anyway. Thanks.
This condo is perfect for a family of 4! Access to private beach was awesome and there is a cool bar/burger shack right on beach. Really close to all attractions as well.
Thank you Tanya for hosting us! This was the perfect spot to get to enjoy a little bit of everything. The distance to the beach was a short walk and wasn’t bad at all. We enjoyed our early mornings at the beach and heading back for evening swims. The condo was perfect for a family of 4 and the beds were super comfortable. The pools were awesome too! Thank you we can’t wait to come back!!
Our family enjoyed the condo!!!! We loved the view, everyone was so friendly, and it was a very quiet place to stay. It was a great location to good restaurants and the beach.
Really loved the warm, homey environment that greeted us immediately upon walking into the unit. It had everything we needed, from the kitchen to beach/pool toys for the kiddos and everything in between! Really enjoyed the stroll to the beach everyday, especially the little bridge over the canal where our toddler loved stopping every walk (both ways, hehe), to visit the ducks and turtles. Absolutely nothing negative to say about the experience. Loved everything and would definitely stay there again!
We had a Great stay at Sandpiper Cove! This condo was perfect for my husband and I. Loved having breakfast on the balcony while we watched the morning golfers. Also it’s a quick drive across the street to the beach! We absolutely loved everything about our stay! We will definitely be back!!

Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to your return visit.
I could not be happier with the location! So centrally located and the private beach made it so convenient. The room was very nice. I only wish the bathroom was a little more updated. It was clean but felt dingy compared to the rest of the place. All in all this was our first family vacation and this room was perfect for our little family!
It was a great place to stay with an amazing view of the canal! The communication with the owner was great & helpful when providing us information about the place & answering my questions. Wish the location was a little closer to the beach, but the 5-8 minute walk wasn’t bad. Definitely a place I would stay again!!
We really enjoyed ourselves. Condo was clean and soft bed. Cute Decor and quiet most of the time.

Liked: Communication, location
Disliked: Check-in
Location of office not clear - rude staff at Holiday Isle.
The street address location of the office is accurate however when you google it takes you to the condo complex. There is an office in there but it is not the right office. It was after hours so did not know - had to stop at the gate and he directed us to find the lock box at the correct office down the street. Getting the code on the day we would arrive late was miserable, would not give it to me over the phone, said email but did not send it. Finally reached him after two tries of no answers, rude again, and he gave it to me. Should not be this hard.
Condo could have been cleaner. Glass table tops were dusy on the bottom and looked dirty!
Will not stay in this location again - just average but very pricey!!!

Dear Guest ... I'm sorry you could not follow the check in instructions provided and surprised you would write a negative review about such a minor issue ... I emailed you my Rental Agency's information and all the necessary check in instructions several days prior to arrival, if there was any confusion about where to check in you could have contacted me (the owner) and I would have been happy to assist you ... when you arrived, the guard house was very accommodating and directed you to the rental office, which is only a block away ... ... I hope you were able to enjoy spending several days on the beautiful beaches of Destin, instead of focusing on such a minor issue ... thanks !!
The rental property was absolutely beautiful , the location was amazing.. the condo was fully furnished with every essential you need.. I found it to be very cozy and relaxing.. check in and out was easy .. will definitely rent it again . Thanks

About the host
Your host
I purchased my Sandpiper Cove condo in 2003 and love spending time at the beach in Destin with my family & friends.
Why they chose this property
I chose Sandpiper Cove for the beautiful grounds, private white sandy beach, wonderful amenities & great location. It's only a quick 6-hour drive from Atlanta.
What makes this property unique
I adore my unit because of the beautiful canal views and love watching golfers in the morning while sipping coffee on the balcony.
