We have stayed at Sandpiper for several years. We always enjoy how short the walk to the beach is and how nicely the condos are maintained. Our only complaint was the amount of people with radios blasting from balconies and at the pool.

14 A is a nice unit. All the basics and reasonably clean. I do wish bedspreads were washed in between bookings. Love the location over the pool, and the quick hop to the beach. The drastically narrower beach, but I hear that there is a restoration project starting soon. We have been staying at the Sandpiper for 35+ years. Now enjoying it with kids and grandkids and family friends. Perfect place for 3 generations.

Our family has been coming to the sandpaper for about 15 years maybe...we stay in a lot of different rooms here. 14A has been one of them...it’s a great location by the pool on the lowest level....best room for location....only get miring sun and no evening sun...the MAIN thing to us is the carpet needs to come out and the master bed mattress might be to be replaced. It also, when we first entered the room, smelled pretty musty or had a mildew odor...needs some new vent covers and there was no vent cover in extra bath. No major issues I guess...but the carpet is horrible! We will continue to stay at Sandpiper but will request another room! Same level and close to pool!

14A is a pretty cool place to stay. Being on the first floor definitely has pros and cons. But really the only con is if you have heavy feet or kiddos staying above you. I was worried about "the view" being on the first floor but was pleasantly surprised.
Only complaints would be when we arrived the tile floor was pretty sticky. But honestly that could be from people spraying their sunscreen.
And wasn't quite sure who to talk to about a couple of 20 somethings who showed up and were loud and completely inappropriate with making out and loud cursing in the pool in front of families with little kiddos. I'm assuming they had a room. They needed to use it.
Overall, Amazing place. I've stayed 3 times in the last 20 years and I love Sandpiper and it's location!! We will be back next year!!

I love Gulf Shores, it is my favorite beach to go to. I have been renting at Sandpiper for 10-15 years. I have stayed at several different condos at Sandpiper over the years. Property is in good condition, very clean, new furniture & mattresses on the beds this year. Bender Realty has always been professional with me, taken care of any issues I've ever had quickly. (5) very satisfied with my stay on all accounts.

Manager's Response

Sandpiper is worth every visit, and we're glad that this year was not different! 14A has a terrific view of the Gulf and lovely pool area.

This is our 6th straight year and the 2nd in 14A. Being on the first floor is so convenient. Beside the pool and only a few steps to the Ocean. Like being on the side where the evening sun does not bake your deck. Everyone is so friendly. Always clean.

Manager's Response

Sandpiper is definitely a fun-filled property, and you are not alone in coming back, year after year. Unit 14A is in a wonderful location, with a great view of the Gulf, as well as the pool and garden area.

I have stayed at Sandpiper every year for about 10 years. The rental units have always been clean. The staff at Bender have always been very helpful & courteous, the 2 times that I had to call for help when something was wrong with the unit, the problem was repaired within a couple of hours. The only issue I have is not with Bender, it would be with some of the other guests that have children. They need to keep their kids under control. Kids were running up & down the stairs, running around all the three floors chasing each other. The kids could have been hurt, or some of the elderly people could have been hurt, had the kids run into them. I love Gulf Shores & Sandpiper!!!

Manager's Response

We truly appreciate your repeat patronage. Sandpiper is indeed a very special place, attracting families and friends, year after year. Its layout is uniquely suited to large groups, as opposed to a condo in which each unit has its own, private balcony.

Other than it taking a bit to get in the condo due to some last minute maintenance, we really enjoyed our stay. The unit was overall accommodating although a little outdated. The Washer/Dryer was updated. We had a fantastic time and have been staying at the Sandpiper for the last 12 years.

Manager's Response

14A has a terrfic location on the first floor and close to the Gulf side. The owner is making plans for updates, so contact us as soon as you've got your dates lined up!

We've enjoyed staying at the Sandpiper condos since February of 2015. Unit 14A was a great condo overlooking the pool ?? n first floor
The unit was clean and had been updated recently. We would like to continue
to rent at the Sandpiper a month each winter for years to come


Great this time as of every time I've stayed here.

The condo was very nice. The mattresses were a little "old" but not too bad. The view was very nice as well and you really are right on the beach. The folks at Bender were extremely polite and very helpful. Would definitely rent from them again.

Everything about our trip was great! We have stayed at the Sandpiper several times and always love it. This year was the first time we had any problems. The refrigerator did not work properly. We called for service about 10:00 pm after purchasing $350.00+ in groceries and were told by the tech that he probably couldn't come that night. We called again the next morning and a tech came, spent 5 min. checking the temp (48 degrees) and said it would be fine. It was not fine. My husband fixed the refrigerator himself once we realized we would not get any help and would probably lose our groceries. The stove in the unit also needs attention but, after the fiasco with the fridge, we didn't even bother to call. So not at all happy with response from the service side. For $1800.00 a week, we do have certain expectations. But the office staff are wonderful to deal with and are always very nice and helpful. We did re-book the same unit for next year so, hopefully, the appliance issues will have been resolved by the time we return. We loved the abundance of furniture in the unit so that we could all sit comfortably together in the evenings and the view was great! Overall, this unit is great and we really liked it very much. Looking forward to returning next year!

We always enjoy the Sandpiper however this year 14A is showing its wear. The furniture needs replacing and the wall coverings need updating as the paper is coming loose. The baths need some caulking around the vanities. It was clean and when we asked for someone to help with the thermostat the man was quick to respond and it worked well after that.

We have rented a Condo at the Sandpiper for the last 6 years along with our children and other family friends. We have enjoyed the location and also the professional and friendly staff at Bender Reality. One concern we would have is that although the housekeeping staff had the conco clean when we arrived, we feel the carpets and furniture need a good cleaning or even may need to be replaced. Other than that we had a very enjoyable stay as usual.

Everything was great, however, I was sad to see that the beach had become commercialized. The selling of beach chairs and the price they demanded left a bad taste in my mouth. Keep in mind that I have stayed at the Sandpiper for 40 years and it once was a place that was away from the beaten path. I guess time marches on. Nevertheless our time there was wonderful !!!

First, let me say The Bender Realty staff is 1st class! We have stayed at The Sandpiper for 17 years now and they have always went out of their way to accommodate our needs.
14A - Pros - new kitchen cabinets and counter top was nice update. The condo was clean and the tile floor is nice.
Cons- The bedrooms need major updating! Bedding is out of the 70's and the beds are hard as rocks. Bedroom furniture needs updating! Clothing space is inadequate.
Entertainment center needs updating... very small TV and no DVD player! Look at 16B and follow their lead. Nice size flat screens in main room and bedroom. TV's are too cheap not to have this upgrade!!!
Overall... nice condo, but when compared to others and the price you have to pay, needs major updates in bedrooms and entertainment areas!
