* Please Note* This home is directly on the water, as all direct waterfront homes in the Florida Keys natures Seasonal Tradewinds may push surface grass to the shoreline of the property.

You can access the water from our "floating dock" where you can launch your boat, paddle boards, and kayaks to avoid this seasonal grass.

Family getaway x19
Overall -a perfect set up for a large extended family with a range of ages. Many outdoor activities on the property. The pool and hot tub are amazing . The house is huge with private corridors (bed and bath) for individual families to be near one another. Kitchen and dining perfect for our large crowd. Hosts Carmen and Sherry very helpful thru out the week *Some improvements that could be made easily- improved wifi and tv service (basketball fans had trouble watching the NCAA games, when the littles needed down time out of the sun, Netflix connections were not good) cleanliness (this house could use a really good deep cleaning) , some of the hinged exterior doors wouldn’t stay closed in the wind,and a safety concern- you can’t lock this house up at night or if you are leaving it on a day trip. All that aside, EVERYONE in our family had a wonderful time here, and we hope to be back again some day!

Disappointing
I have never left a bad review but in this case, I felt it was necessary. The property and location were beautiful. Plenty to do and stocked well. That said, the property definitely needed some updating. The wiring and internet throughout the property was a disaster. The internet worked but it did not stay connected to the TV's or other devices due to how they were jerry-rigged. In some cases, with tape and several connections to one unit. There were two separate Wi-Fi signals throughout the home. We were constantly having to reconnect to them when the signal fell off. Biggest issue was two of the bathrooms on the main level did not have hot water for 5 of the 7 days. We had someone come in on 3 separate occasions. Due to her needs my 83yr old mother stayed in one of those bathrooms. Having her go to another occupied bathroom was a huge inconvenience. The hot water did get resolved on day 6. I was in constant contact with the property manager (not what I like to do on vacation) throughout our entire stay. I am in customer service, and I understand that things happen that are out of your control. We were offered another stay at a reduced rate of two nights. This was a once in a lifetime vacation for my family. This was a wish from my mom, we will not be able to pull our family together at this expense again. Management knew this and it saddens me that they did not feel a small refund (one night) was deserved. Very poor management.

Great extended family property!
24 family members stayed for a week at Seaside Sandpiper. Everyone remarked about having the right amount of privacy and common space. Centrally located in the Florida Keys easy to access other activities. The pool/hot tub beach side is amazing! Tiki bar with TV for watching sports or whatever is your thing. There is a shared dock for kayaking/paddle boarding from or rent a boat and keep it there. Fishing from the dock was great fun too. We saw a Manatee from the dock too. Dolphins swam by several mornings. We also enjoyed watching the sea birds. Grocery stores, restaurants and other activities were close and convenient. Great family vacation! I highly recommend this property.

Family vacation
We were happy with our stay and had fun as a family. The size of the house, rooms and location was great. We loved that we didn’t have to worry about pool towels. There were however some disappointing items as well. This was our first time using VRBO and we trusted the description to be accurate. We paid for a clean resort like situation however, because of the aforementioned items it missed the mark. This house had a lot of mold and tiles that need to be fixed, carpet covering holes in the floors, and broken curtain rods. The pool was constantly cloudy and we kept having to call to have the pool tended to. There was not enough silverware for a group of 26 and there were no dish towels, dish rags or sponges for cleaning up the kitchen. There were a few outdoor chairs that were broken, the tiki hut has a sink that is not operational, the white railing on the second floor is not safe and we had 4 toddlers in our group. The grounds on the sides and near the tiki bars have a lot of clutter/broken stuff that made it feel more cluttered than resort like. The hammock is partially torn and not safe for adults to use. We loved that there were kayaks and paddle boards, but there were no paddles for the paddle boards, just kayaks. There was a dart board and no darts. Some suggestions are to put hooks in all the bathrooms so things can be hung up, extra hand towels and possibly a few extra bath towels so you have something to use when you use your towels.

Great trip with friends!!
Group of 5 families, kids all grown had an awesome time. The house was great, we had a little AC mid week and Sherry was on it right away. Cooked meals in and had all necessary items. Pool area and Tili hut were major hang out areas. Plenty of room to sleep out 21 people easily. We were met by host for a complete walk thru on check in. Very relaxing pace

The property was great! There was plenty for our family to do for the kids and the “ big kids”. Plenty of privacy for us to spread out and have our own spaces. Convenient to stores and the beach! Our family created amazing memories here we will never forget this place! There were minor issues with showers and the elevator. But that’s houses. We understand that! Sherry is as great to deal with and very helpful. Thank you!

Perfect large family vacation
Great house for large group! Our family was celebrating my mom’s 80th birthday. We were 13 adults and 6 children 7 and under. The house was perfect for us! So much for the kids to do and space to eat and sleep. Great mornings drinking coffee looking at the ocean while Kids played in the sand, brunch cooked in the tiki hut while kids played in the pool, and grilling dinner out by the basketball court! Awesome to have 2 washers and dryers. The ice machine was a great bonus too. Location was perfect. Publix being so close, easy walk with kids to sombrero beach and fabulous new playground. Great nature center up the road. Theatre of the sea is an easy 40 min. Drive. So worth it. I also highly recommend Castaway waterfront restaurant. Delicious and great service. Great at accommodating all 19 of us with reservations. Thank you Sherry for being a wonderful host!

Celebrating A Life and Love of Family
26 of us came together for a Celebration of Life at Sombrero Reef. It was important to us to find a ace where we could be together. As our numbers grew, we weren't sure that was possible. And then we found Sraside Sandpiper! We were able to cook and eat together, spend time at the pool, enjoying all the amenities and still be able to get away in your own suite if needed! Many thanks to Sherry, our host, for your assistance and quick response to questions we had. A beautiful home, a fantastic week

Great Family Getaway
We had 18 people from 2 years to 70 and was perfect for all. The view from the bedrooms, kitchen and dining area were awesome. The outside where we spent most of our time was wonderful with plenty of beach towels, floats for the pool, corn hole , shuffleboard and speakers for music. Kids had a blast . A big plus was the commercial ice maker and two coolers outside to keep our drinks cold. The dining table was big enough to seat all of us. We had chef Alfreda come one night to prepare an awesome dinner. We also used 2 Nauti charters for two days of fishing and plenty of fish caught for multiple dinners. The smoker grill was great as well as all the other grills. Sherry was easy to work with and close by for anything we needed. Wonderful weather as well. What more could you ask for.

Amazing Memories
There were thirteen women who have been friends since seventh grade celebrating our 60th birthday together. It was terrific, our own private resort. Sherry, the property owner responded very quickly to any questions we had and is a resource of information. We spent our days in the fabulous heated saltwater pool listening to old tunes, drinking cocktails, and laughing. At night we all had our own space with comfortable beds and nice televisions. We rented bikes to explore the surrounding area, ate at good restaurants, and did a boat ride to some amazing snorkeling sites. One evening Sherry helped us with a bonfire and we sat by the water under the stars. I would highly recommend this property to groups of friends or families. We would love to return!

Amazing !!!
We had a large family Vaca ( 22 of us) our kids (5) spouses and grandkids; it was amazing!! We love loved this property!! We had such an amazing time!! You don’t even have to leave - there’s so much to do right here and enough space to spread out for alone time if you need it. There is the public beach just a short walk away but with the pool ( looks like you are at a resort sunbathing) hot tub, paddle boards, shuffle board ( which we played a lot ) fishing dock, volleyball, pool table…. Why leave? There was a stocked kitchen, the coffe pots and a coffee station and other toiletries all ready there. We enjoyed fixing breakfast / bacon on the flat top in the tiki hut. Had a nice fire to sit around a few nights. Some of the group did take a snorkel trip one day and had a great time! Stores ( and instacart) are near by. Sherry was super helpful and easy to communicate with!! She just wants to make your stay a memorable and happy time. It’s your “ private resort”. Sherry even helped with arranging a chef and photographer. Each of my kids expressed how amazing the place was and how it was an “over the top” family vacation !! The adults and the children all had something to say about the great vacation !! Thank you Sherry for a great week - we love your place ( and the one next door too haha!!) my friend is already contemplating booking with you for their family vacation the beginning of next year. We will hope to see you again !!! Kim B
