Great studio / close to beach!

The studio is well equipped with plenty of kitchen items and is very close to the beach (2 minutes) and the pool near the other studio condo units. The back porch overlooks the guard shack and entry point so there was occasional traffic. My only complaint about the unit was a very damp foul smell which hit your nose upon entry.

Great time!

We had an amazing time. Everything about this place was great. There were just a few things we would’ve wished could’ve been different. One being, we had to pay for beach chair/umbrella rentals. Which would’ve been nice if it would’ve been included, especially because they told us that usually most of the renters pay for them. And the last thing that would’ve been nice was if the screen door of the back porch was new including the furniture in the porch as well. These things aren’t big issues. We had a great stay either way!

Great stay!

We got to the property and it was exactly like pictured! Close to everything! The second day we discovered the a/c wasn’t working. We let the office and host know and it was fixed by the next morning! My only downfall is the 10am check out, our flight isn’t until 5 so my only complaint would be to extend the check out by a little bit! Great stay and we will be back!

Nice Place but could be better

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place was clean but had a musty smell in the kitchen. The corner kitchen cabinet is falling apart, and the screen door on the back porch does not work on the track. They said someone would look at it but no one ever showed up.Heads up to the next guest: Paper towels and other kitchen items not in the unit. It's BYO kitchen stuff. A good non-stick omelet size pan would be a plus. The stainless one they have was a BEAR to clean.The unit was not ready on time for check in and after a couple of trips to the office and back, I finally got the right codes. Just be patient I suppose.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was clean. Needs to be updated and repaired in a few spots but nothing major. My husband and I stayed there for a long weekend. The beach was an easy walk. The water was gorgeous. It’s a private beach. My only complaint is that the beach chairs were not the included in the rental of the condo. Restaurants were easily accessible. We would definitely stay here again.

We found roaches! And the check in process was horrible - that had given me the wrong passcode

We found roaches! And the check in process was horrible - that had given me the wrong passcode I had to go back to the main office twice and the lady was rude she acted like I was putting on the incorrect passcode at the end I had to grab one of the maintenance guys and he had to call the office turns out the passcode the lady gave me was completely different! Then at the time of check out I never received a text message I had to go to the office and check out 2 weeks later I’m still waiting on my deposit refund!

Good location, needs work!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Well located studio. Comfortable bed and kitchen had everything we needed (equipment). Sandpiper has been our "go to" for over 30 years. Set up of complex suits us and staff is always great. Housekeeping did a great job but this condo needs some professional maintenance. Moldy caulking around wood corner round that was unsuccessfully added to cover gaps between the heavily scratched up garden tub and shower walls. The screen door,still broken, glass door still difficult (track needs serious cleaning). Small tall table is only eating surface (after we moved the microwave off of it) and there are only 2 chairs for that. Curtain covering sliding glass door is semi transparent, right next to bed, little privacy. I'm ok with, dated but clean, but this place needs some work.Will not return to 8155 but will be return to SPC.

The property smelled of sewer, as did the condo at times. There were cockroaches three times in our condo and the front desk didn’t seem concerned at all! The shower leaked and the overall cleanliness of the place left a lot to be desired.
