Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Check-in was simple. We arrived around 1130pm. Front gate attendant had our door and beach gate codes. Following morning a quick final check-in at the main office was a breeze.Unit was as advertised. I think the pics undersell it slightly. It is a perfect studio condo for me and my 6 year old. Murphy bed was comfortable enough. Everything was clean. A/C worked flawlessly; and it was necessary with heat indexes either side of 105.The location was great. It does overlook Gulf Shores Dr. so traffic can be heard. I suggest bringing a fan to drown that out. Small pool was directly out the door. Beach was an easy 5 minute walk or you can drive and park in the private parking across the road at Sandpiper's beach access. Free par 3 golf course is included.Beach area was fantastic. Line forms before 9 below walkway on the beach to get your chair/umbrella assignment.The Sand Flea bar/restaurant on the beach was handy. We ate breakfast one morning and it was delicious. We had the breakfast tacos and burrito. ##### Blake W.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love staying at Sandpiper- and the closer to the beach the unit, the better!!!! Which is why this unit #8106 was perfect! It maximumized the space to create living room kitchen and bedroom all in one studio. Bathroom was pretty big for size unit. You are very close to Gulf Drive, but we travel with a sound machine (white noise) so no issues there. Changes I would’ve loved: a better mattress for the Murphy bed- you know it’s not going to be the best mattress, but it’s old and squeaked (like an air mattress) anytime one of us shifted-even a little. ##### Erica M.

Reviewer Comments: Very clean condo. Within walking distance to the beach. Decor was “beach y”. The condo was actually quiet even though the back facing the main road. We didn’t realize beach chairs and an umbrella came with the condo. Although there was a sign below the TV. A suggestion would be to put that sign on the counter or table. ##### A guest from Grand Forks, ND This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Zelma D. 11 May 2023 #### 8106 is the Best Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful.
