About this property

Sandpiper is a low density three story complex. Its unique V shape building and shared common area walkway in front of each condo lends to a friendly get to know your neighbor atmosphere. Family reunions, large groups of people traveling together and individual families often choose this property. The tropical courtyard, seasonally-heated swimming pool (mid-March through October, as needed) and grilling areas give Sandpiper an ambiance all its own. It comes highly recommended, and has the most repeat guests. Your view is beach-side and within a short walk you are able to enjoy the sand and the water.

Spring break rental

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful week at the Sandpiper, and we will be back! However, we are unlikely to choose 4A again unless there are no other units available. The unit is very dated, carpet feels dirty, and kitchen is lacking in items that are found in other units (e.g. wine classes, serving bowls). The oven doesn't cook uniformly, and the washer and dryer had issues while we were there.

Very good stay. Outside of property immaculate, but condo in bathrooms could have been cleaner on the floor. Looked like under bath room benches no one swept. Also towels could have been nicer. The kitchen was fully stocked and was great to eat in. Living area and pull out sofa comfortable.

Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2023

Sandpiper 4A

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than 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 had a great experience at the Sandpiper, until the last day when someone stole our beach umbrella and all of our beach toys. Unfortunate that you can not leave wet items out to dry without someone feeling like they must take them. Overall, the Sandpiper is a good place to stay.

July Family Gathering

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We come with many family members and love the location and layout of The Sandpiper. We have been coming for 25+ years. The units are very dated with mismatched furniture, and in desperate need of maintenance. The kitchen and all of the pots, pans, utensils, dinnerware, glassware need to be addressed. There was not even a divider for the utensil drawer - they were just all thrown in the drawer. There were peanuts on the floor and soda or something dripping down the wall upon arrival. All of the units we stayed in need drastic attention.

4A Review

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Approximately 35 members of my extended Louisville family vacation together in June for 20+ yrs. The last 10 + yrs. we (my wife and guests) have stayed in 4A and herein lies my complaint. For $2000.00 a week I would expect furniture/appliances at least as nice as the furnishings in my own home. Too much to expect? 4A still maintains a keyed entry into the condo. The majority have a number pad. But it sets the tone for the rest of the “tour”. The LR furniture, transferred from 5A to 4A (same owners) several years ago, including the kitchen table, a pull out couch with a mattress as thick as hammock, a love seat, furniture the quality of a Goodwill showroom, wore out and threadbare. The side chair is an afterthought. The TV on a cabinet, works well but if mounted with a $12.00 bracket would save room in the cramped LR. The stove is what you would expect in a rental apartment in a college town. The washer & dryer fine. Fridge adequate. The master bedroom mattress is broken down, head board hanging on by a thread. Dresser drawers practically fall out when opened. A second flat panel TV sits on the dresser in front of the mirror. Again, the TV mounted with a $12.00 bracket and removing the mirror would be nice. Please add a curtain on the single window over the blind so the sunlight doesn’t stream in every morning like a Hollywood spotlight. The bathroom mirror is the nicest thing in the bathroom. The vanity is the same quality as your 1976 local Econo Lodge. Same for the hallway bath. The second bedroom has a large tube tv sitting in the corner on a cabinet. Same window issue. Several of the wall plugs are wore out and will not hold a plug. I want to simply ask the owners, who I'm sure are nice people, to put some value into 4A so you feel like you’re getting what you’re paying for. For future visitors, who rent 4A, don’t expect much in amenities for the money you will spend. As for next year, we have declined 4A and have reserved another condo at the Sandpiper.<

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. 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: This is an excellent unit! The bedding arrangement and furnishings in the living room make this unit especially nice for families. Lots of room for everyone to spread out and get comfortable. This unit also has beach chairs and an umbrella available for use! So nice not to have to cart these items all the way from Michigan!

Disappointed

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We found the unit dirty and needed a deep clean and the closets were stuffed with beach toys. The kitchen table was even dirty. We checked 4 other units and found them to be clean, well furnished and updated. Other guests made the same observations and comments about our unit.

Needs an update

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. 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 do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed in various units in Sandpiper throughout the years and this unit was a disappointment. It shows well in the pictures online, but it was very disappointing once we arrived. The furniture in the living room is old and uncomfortable (except the large chair - that was nice). The wall mirrors were chipping giving the appearance of being "unkept." All of the beds were extremely uncomfortable - we had backaches for days. The bathrooms need an update. Overall, the unit was very dark feeling - not cheery like the other units we have stayed in. We appreciate the maintenance being done on the building - the new rocks in the parking area and the new(ish) railings. The building itself is always well maintained.
