Description Description
The Sandpiper is a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath single family home located in the WindMark Beach Resort. This coastal residential community is located midway between Mexico Beach and Port St. Joe with very quiet, serene shorelines. Within the neighborhood you will find several amenities meant to enhance your vacation experience. There is a large community pool with a children’s playground located in the TownCentre, as well as a fire pit designed for a nice sized group. Walking paths extend the length of the entire community with several boardwalks leading to the beach. Most boardwalks have outdoor showers and water stations for quick clean up after playing in the sand and saltwater. WindMark Beach is an active community with a gym, Fit as a Fiddle, where you can purchase day, week or month passes. Dining is offered overlooking the water at the View on Old 98, and pick up your spirits and sundries at the Mill and Mercantile. Just bring yourself and your bathing suit, and everything else will be waiting for you! Small pets under 25 pounds are allowed at this property.

The Sandpiper is a generous size home with plenty of space to enjoy your group. On the front of the house, you can enjoy sitting outside on the screened porch and there are two others on the back side. Situated on piers, there are only a couple of stairs leading into the first floor which houses the living area, kitchen and dining. On the second level, you have the three bedrooms and two full baths. If cooking is something you enjoy while on vacation, this is the right spot. With a gas, 5 burner stove, lots of counter and cabinet space and a roomy pantry, you may never have to go out for a meal.

Floor Plan: Ground level – screened front porch, kitchen, dining area, ½ bath and living room with TV and small deck on the back. 2nd level – laundry closet, Bedroom 1 – queen bed, Bedroom 2 – 2 twin beds, full bath with shower/tub combo; and Bedroom 3 – king bed, small TV, walk-in closet, screened deck and full bath with shower only and his/her sinks.

Perfect blend for a beach stay.
Enjoyed our stay. The boardwalk to the beach was right out our door. The village pizza place was an easy walk of 2 blocks for a fresh salad, pizza and wings. The ride into Port St Joe is all of 4-5 minutes. Area is rebounding well from last hurricane. Huge perk for this place is the parking and the kitchen has everything. Beds were comfy. Air conditioning kept us cool. We enjoyed the open porch and the large screened in porch. A few other reviewers commented on the music from the outdoor groups that played. We actually enjoyed it. Ended by10 but even if it didn’t I don’t think it would have disrupted sleep. They played just the Saturday night of our stay. My only hang up is the tv service. At home,I turn it on and it’s there. Most rentals, this one included, use a smart tv system. Roku. Just mentally prepare to adjust to that if that’s not your normal. I had my login for my home provider so I was able to access a few specific channels. This is not a knock on this rental or any other, it’s just a heads up to future renters. Would definitely rent here again!

Great rental
We loved this rental. The community is lovely. Boardwalks throughout to easily walk everywhere. Very comfortable beds. Well stocked kitchen. Screened in porch was great. The only downside was the pool was closed for the week we were there, and we were not told that prior or ever told why it was closed.

Nice house in a pleasant community
The house is new and clean. It is part of the WindMark community, which features a small walkable area of shops and boardwalk access to the bay. It doesn't have a view, but the beach is 2 minutes away. There aren't many restaurants yet. The shop that rents paddle boards etc was very friendly. The only complaint about the property is that it is close to where the community holds live music events, which can be heard inside the house, though not overly distracting (events end at 10pm).

A lovely and pleasant stay
Of the many beach houses that we’ve been fortunate to stay in, “The Sandpiper,” definitely tops our list. From the moment we walked in, the natural sunlight beamed right into the dining/living room, welcoming us in its warmth, while the illuminance steadily continued to cover the entire place. Our attention was immediately drawn to the beach themed art on the wall and modern/rustic decor, with an emphasis on one of my favorite colors or at least what I perceived it to be, turquoise. Everything was absolutely beautiful and we truly appreciated the simplistic but yet elegant arrangements. Everything we needed was here, especially in the kitchen, which was excellent because we enjoy cooking. Furthermore, this home is spacious, comforting and conveys a sense of peace. As for the community- absolutely loved it. The house is situated in very close proximity to the village center and the beach, both of which only took approximately 5 minutes to walk. Believe it or not, our vehicle never left the drive way for the duration of our stay. Also, the concept of interconnecting the homes in the vicinity, with boardwalks, adds a nice touch as well. Last but not least, my fiancé and I witnessed some of the most amazing sunsets at the beach. Thankfully, we captured those pleasant memories by taking many photos and videos. Although we can always view them to relive those experiences, we know that it’s always best to return and see them again in real life. That being said, we look forward to our return to, “The Sandpiper” soon!

Rental was clean and in a convenient location. Only issues we had were lack of washcloths and not being able to adjust the thermostat. It stayed stuffy in the house the whole time we were there.

We are looking forward to booking this house again! This was the best property we’ve stayed at. Loved every single thing about this house especially the cleanliness! It was beautiful, comfortable, bright (except with the shades down in the bedrooms which was perfect) and had a great area to park and clean our boat. Not one single complaint about this place! We can’t wait to go back!

This is a great property. It was perfect for our family. We rented bikes for the week and it would take us about 3 minutes to ride to the beach. It was super convenient and the house appeared to be brand new. It was a great location and we loved our stay!

Wish of all the times I called someone would have told me about free bike and kayak rentals.

We just figure between the several email reminders inviting you to reserve your gear prior to your arrival our staff don't think to bring it up.   We appreciate your feedback and will certainly look into promoting the Beach Gear program better.
