You’ll enjoy the best of both worlds at this comfortable second-floor condo - a quiet, setting on the Sandpiper Bay Golf Course, plus easy access to Sunset Beach, around five miles away. Myrtle Beach is only 30 miles away, and tons of local shops, restaurants, and attractions surround you.

Start the day with coffee on your serene balcony, overlooking the pond. Inside, you’ll find a space that’s been renovated with tile and luxury flooring, and nine-foot vaulted ceilings to make the space live large. Meal prep is a breeze in the open, full kitchen, and the gang can eat together at the adjacent table. When it’s time to head for the beach, don’t forget to grab all the toys, gear, and boogie boards out of the storage closet. If you’ve got golf on your mind, there’s a spare set of clubs available as well.

At dinnertime, head to one of the complex’s shared charcoal grills for an easy meal, or step out to a local restaurant. Unwind on the couch while you stream the latest release or upload the day’s pics to social media with the free WiFi. Call it a night in one of the well-appointed bedrooms, but not before another trip to the balcony for a toast to your good luck at booking the perfect family escape and bring a furry friend with you, we are dog-friendly.

Weekend getaway

Stay was very nice and we’d stay here again if available. Two issues (correctable) that we encountered was the abundance of cat or dog hair on porch that we had to vacuum up. Everything else was spotless and welcoming. The second issue was pots to boil water. We could not find any. Just two small pans. Thanks for sharing your place which was enjoyable having coffee on the porch.

Half Marathon

Stayed in the area for the half marathon and to enjoy the beach. The place was clean, nice and quiet. Would stay again, as we liked the area. Property management company text and/or called leading up to our stay to sign extra forms and during our stay I heard from them some way or another daily. They asked how clean it was, how our check-in was, to tell them when we checked out. We were only there 2 days and I wanted to relax not feel bombarded on my phone constantly. Also, they have a ring camera so if they wanted to know when we left they could check that. Other than that. It was fine.

You won't regret a stay with Vacasa!

Nice place to stay at an excellent price!

We loved the convenience of location for our purposes. Plenty of towels and a well-stocked kitchen. Being on the second floor available only by stairs was not a problem at all, and the keyless entry was so convenient. The neighborhood was very quiet, and the view from the screened porch overlooking the pond with fountain was very relaxing. Would definitely stay here again!

Clean!

This condo was perfect for my adult son, 2 dogs, and me. Lots of places to walk them. The kitchen had plenty of pots, pans, utensils, hand towels, etc. It would have been nice to have a coffee maker, but the Keurig was nice. The balcony overlooking the pond was peaceful in this quiet community. The bathroom and kitchen was equipped with soaps, detergent, paper towels, toilet paper, shampoo. We'd definitely stay here again.

Beautiful clean place with lovely screened in porch!

Gorgeous neighborhood with a ton of green space. Gorgeous screened in porch. Great location. Nice pool. Plenty of parking. Spacious condo. One of the cleanest homes I've rented in 25 years. Really thoughtful touches like dishwasher and laundry detergent in home. Only even better if would be in the kitchen. If you're just looking for cereal and sandwiches during your stay - it's totally adequate with plates bowls and silverware. I've got a ton of food allergies so we cook - and the pots and pans really need to be replaced. I would absolutely rent here again and am already looking at the same dates next year. It's a lovely place.

4th of July week

We really enjoyed our stay but we did have trouble with the air conditioning and the wifi. Overall temperatures outside were in the high 80's. We had the air conditioning set at 71 and during the days, the inside temps were between 76 and 78! We even had the blinds closed in the main room. Also, the wifi is extremely slow so it was hard to work in the condo.

Love it, would stay again

Upon our arrival, approximately 20 minutes before the scheduled check-in time, the house had not yet been cleaned. This was unusual, as we've never encountered this issue with other rentals in the area. What we found particularly odd was that the laundry, including sheets and towels, was already bagged. When the cleaning crew arrived, they stated they had been delayed and stuck on a nearby island. This seemed inconsistent, as someone had clearly been in the house to bag the laundry, and previous renters would not have had access to the cleaning crew's laundry bags. This suggests either there are two cleaning crews, or the crew was not entirely truthful. We recognize that we arrived on July 5th, the day after the Fourth of July weekend, and traffic in and out of the area was very heavy. Therefore, it's possible they did experience legitimate traffic issues; our only concern was the potential lack of complete transparency. Aside from the initial cleaning delay, the house itself was very nice and well-organized, with good furniture. The beds were a bit worn, but that's often expected in a vacation rental. The water pressure in the showers was a little low, especially after a day at the beach, but the water consistently got hot and cold, which was sufficient. We also found ants in the living room next to the patio door, and we were unable to block them from coming in. Our two main concerns, besides the cleaning issue and the ants, were the inability to lock the back patio door. Although we were on the second story and the patio was screened, making unauthorized entry unlikely without significant effort, the lack of a lock felt somewhat questionable. On a positive note, we really appreciated the clearly marked parking area. Many driveways on Ocean Isle Beach are gravel, or require tandem parking, which can be inconvenient. Having a paved, clearly lined parking lot was a significant advantage. We also really enjoyed the property's pool area. We liked that it was gated, ensuring only other renters were present, and it was large and deep enough for our child to have a lot of fun. The hot tub was also a nice amenity, even in the summer. Our only minor complaint about the pool was that some other renters tended to claim entire sections of the area. This is more a reflection on other guests than the property itself, but it was frustrating to feel the need to arrive early or "reserve" a chair with a towel if we wanted to use it later in the day. One of the primary reasons we chose this rental was its pet-friendly nature. We were pleased to find ample sidewalks for walking our dog and plenty of grassy areas for potty breaks. Most residents were considerate and actively picked up after their pets, which was a pleasant surprise. In conclusion, we would stay again.

Love the neighborhood, but a few issues with this property

This is our second time at Sandpiper Bay and we love the location, the quiet neighborhood, beautiful pond and well-kept pool. "Salty Dogs" was nice, but we had a couple of issues, both of which Vacasa responded quickly to but were unable to fix during our stay. First, there was an electrical issue that caused the hallway light to flicker and second, there is no lock on the sliding door going out to the porch. Even though this property is on the second floor, not having a lock on the door is irresponsible and as a former military family, made us very uneasy. It's also worth noting (as an FYI) there is no ice maker in the freezer, so you have to use the provided ice trays or buy bags of ice. Lastly, the kitchen table chairs are VERY "creeky" and loud. Again, we love this neighborhood, we just won't stay in this particular unit again.

Good/not good

The property manager was outstanding. When we got to the property we were impressed....until I noticed there was no way to lock the patio door nor could we secure it with a pole because of the way it was installed. The managing company, VACASA, tried to get the owner to approve a replacement hanle with a lock, but I was told the owner said to wait. We planned on staying a week, but were able to complete what we needed to and checked out a couple days early. Just makes me believe if something goes wrong and needs to be repaired, it's probably not going to happen. The managing company gets a 5 star, the owner gets a 1 star, which averages to a 3 star.

Enjoyed the light and bright condo.

Overall, wonderful except pans and dishes need replaced. Pans worn out, the few bowls are chipped. And some glasses are chipped. For comfort, I would remove the oversized chair in master bedroom so the door can be accessed. Especially, if there was a fire and need that escape route.
