Awesome Cottage

This home is fabulous! The owners are very meticulous and have thought of everything. There is a lot of attention to detail throughout the home. They have taken the time to put together a welcome book- which was also sent as a digital copy when I booked. It was nice to be able to see this ahead of time since we had never been to the area. It includes information about the home, the neighborhood, along with area restaurants and things to do. There is also a welcome basket on the counter that included a large variety of snacks which was very appreciated after a long day of traveling. There are also labels on switches to indicate what they are for (lights, fans) which is so helpful when you're not familiar with a home. It's the little things that make a big difference. The home is VERY clean- immaculate! The owners provide the basics for your stay: small dish soap, new sponge, travel sized toiletries in both bathrooms, a roll of paper towels, and some toilet paper. This was especially appreciated since we flew and only had carry-on luggage. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils, dishes, cookware, and towels. Communication with the owner was excellent from the first time I inquired about the property. There was always a quick response to emails when I had questions. I appreciated the information and suggestions she provided (Walmart grocery delivery was perfect and the Dollar General is very short walk. The Dollar General is very nice and they sell alcohol and a ton of food- different from what I've seen in NY). I highly recommend the grocery delivery- who wants to spend time grocery shopping when you're on vacation? I really appreciated this suggestion! The neighborhood is lovely. The landscaping at the house and around the whole neighborhood is gorgeous and everything is very nicely maintained. We went to the bigger pool- there are plenty of lounge chairs and lots of space. It's an easy walk to the gorgeous white sand beach and to some restaurants. There are several restaurants that are right on the water. It was just what we were looking for. We loved our stay here and would definitely stay again!

Absolutely Perfect!

We had a great stay with our granddaughter she loved the pool. the place was quiet. The beach was perfect, very clear water. We enjoyed our stay at your lovely place

Great Stay for our Vacation

Sandpiper Cottage was a great house to stay at. The house is just like the pictures and clean. It was a beautiful home that accommodated 5 adults and a 1 yr old. It was about a 10 min walk to beach but there was also a beach neighborhood shuttle that ran so that was great but they end at 5pm so we walked back to house. It wasn’t bad at all. We would definitely love to stay at this house again on our next trip to Destin! Book your stay you won't be disappointed!

Relaxing and Refreshing

We had a wonderful time at sandpiper cottage. The house was lovely. Everything was clean and lots of supplies were available to use along with the fully stocked kitchen! The pool and beach were just a short walk. We loved the added touch of the welcome basket with snacks, made us feel very welcomed!

Great Stay
