Only thing is it could use a new coffee maker - the current one takes forever to brew and somehow loses 2 cups of water. Would stay in this unit again and we are repeat guests at Sandpiper Cove :)

Great last minute trip

This was a great and easy get away for 3 generations. My mother, my daughter and myself decided last minute to get away for a few days. The condo owner was quick in replying to my request and very helpful in making things seamless for us. The condo itself was nice, clean and comfortable. The resort is great because it is so close to their private beach. When traveling back to Destin I will be checking the availability of this unit! Thanks for everything!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location, close to the beach, restaurants, and shopping. The patio area is amazing if you like to sit outside. The condo was clean and had plenty of room for the 2 of us. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes, cookware, and utensils. It does need to have pot holders. Arriving after dark made it difficult to locate the condo because the porch light was off and we could not see the numbers. We had to reset the wifi router multiple times daily.We had a great time and the beach and weather was beautiful all week!

Nice week away

Aside from the weather and long waits at restaurants our trip was awesome. The condo was exactly what was advertised, nice view off the back deck, private beach were chairs and umbrellas are provided for you, and a pretty decent little 9 hole course built in throughout the complex. Would highly recommend staying in this unit and if you do try out the amazing restaurant in the condo development. Best food I’ve ever eaten
