Great for bringing jet skis or a small boat. Location has its own boat ramp and canal for easy launch and cleaning. Room was very nice and clean. Hope to come back.
The condo was clean and well maintained. Located on the canal overlooking the 8th hole of the 9 hole golf course. We would definitely stay there again and recommend to friends/family.
The condo,is in a great location, it was clean.
We ate at the restaurant,that was on site.
The ceiling fan in the living room, works, but you have to have the light on, no pull chain to turn light off. The batteries in remotes need to be replaced,and the appliances need to be update.
Washer seems it’s on its last leg.

We rented a condo for our first retirement winter vacation. We sat on the deck, above a canal, every day and just relaxed. Very peaceful. The pool was warm and the hot tub wax WONDERFUL! Almost everyone there was retired and so very friendly. We will definitely be back.

Reviewer Comments:
We needed a place to keep our survey vessel/trailer and Sandpiper Cove was perfect for our needs. Although it is a bit tight maneuvering a 27 ft trailer around the subdivision/boat ramp, we made it work. We were able to keep our triple-axle trailer and dually truck in the carport and the boat in the canal right behind our unit. Perfect for what we needed! The unit was clean with only the very basics provided. Please note there is a unit above #4112 and it was a bit noisy with other guests...Good thing they departed soon after we arrived! Overall a good stay.

Living room ceiling fan does not work. No curtains, no privacy in living room and dining room. Had to hang sheets because no one could get us curtains or something for privacy. Living room and bedroom tvs were not working properly. Long story, my husband fixed them after 4 days of dealing with them. Maintenance could not fix. Glass was cracked and leaked tea all over our sons new white shirt.

We had such an enjoyable and relaxing time at Sandpiper Cove for the week of New Years Eve. The weather was cool, but there was plenty of fishing and golf and pickle ball to fill our time. We enjoyed eating at Louisiana Langniappe. The condo was very comfortable and clean.

Reviewer Comments:
The noise was horrible. Could hear every step of the people in the condo above. The night we got there - the bed in the primary bedroom sheets had not been changed and there was hair and sand in the bed. The replacement sheets in the closet had blood stains on them. On the 3rd night the noise in the condo started at 4 am. And the person on call didn’t want to come talk to them only did after I said I was calling in the morning to complain. Hot tubs are very small and they were not clean.

Started with the key code not working and had to use a key the whole week..(not a big issue). Then right after we got in the condo, I noticed the thermostat blinking and that it was warm. Maintenance guy came by, changed thermostats and said problem was fixed. 1 hour later our room was 90 degrees. Had to be to another condo for the night. The next day the air was fixed by a A/C guy. He said the problem was a stopped up drain line. Then about the 4th day, we came in to the condo from the beach, a located a brand new sofa sitting in the middle of the living room floor along with the old one....That left us no room to relax in the living room......Other than that, great location on canal.. wanted to ask for a partial refund but didn’t want to argue about it.
