Sandpiper Cove
We booked this place on a whim to try a different location in Destin. The property has been lightly updated but could use improvements. The entire complex could use a freshening. In our unit, doors were loosely hanging off the hinges. Had the handle fall off the front door while we were there and maintenance repaired it the following day. The unit could use a handyman with paint and tools for a day or so to help spiff things up. WiFi was ok, had no complaints from the teens in our unit. AC worked well and beds were comfortable. The kitchen could use some new cookware, knives and dinnerware. Washer and dryer need to be replaced, they are extremely old and slow. The deck was nice and had a good view of the ocean and dunes. One major quibble has to do with the parking. This unit is located on the beach side and hosts shared beach access for the entire complex. Assigned condo parking spots would be a welcome addition. During the day, this place is busy. With three rows of beach chairs, it gets crowded and some folks are not considerate to others with their music, vaping, etc. The beach service staff were great, we requested additional chairs and an umbrella. They took care of us all week. The Sand Flea bar and grill is a convenient spot to grab lunch or dinner. We had great food and beverages during the duration of our stay. Grilled fish tacos were delicious. Overall, we would probably stay here again. The complex is a bit run down and could use some rejuvenating.
