Sandpiper 7A ~ Enjoy the pool and beach views
Wave your worries goodbye during your stay at Turtle Tide Retreat! While staying at this idyllic location, you'll find yourself transported into a story where you step onto a covered deck, book and coffee in hand, and breathe in the salty gulf air. With the waves gently crashing against the shore just outside your door, you'll feel your body relax as you plan out your day.
Whether you choose to spend the day indoors, grilling a delicious meal, or catching up on your favorite TV show, or venture outside for a walk along the beach, the options for relaxation and rejuvenation are endless! You may even be tempted to take a dip in the gulf waters and let the ebb and flow refresh your spirit.
Turtle Tide Retreat is the perfect setting for you to create your own fairy tale, and when you return home, you'll have a story to tell that begins with, "Once upon a tide..." Whether you're looking for a quick escape or a longer retreat, Turtle Tide Retreat is the ideal destination to unwind and recharge. You may never want to leave, and perhaps you'll find a way to make this a yearly tradition.

This was our 9th year coming to Sandpiper with friends/family for the Shrimpfest. Love every minute of it.
We went with a group of 80 people and had a fabulous time. Our condo 7A was adorable! The beds were comfy and we just loved it. The only thing was there were only 5 forks and no glass casserole to cook in. Otherwise, it was great and would stay in that unit again!!

Directly on the beach! The front door is about 50 yards from the water. Perfect views. Condo has everything you could need, even some beach toys. Beds were comfortable and furnishings are charming. The property is very clean and well-maintained. Hoses for rinsing sand were conveniently located and the valet carts were a thoughtful touch. Couldn't hear other guests and quiet hours were respected. The rental office is only 1/4 mi away, on the way to the unit. This was a really great stay and we are already planning next year!

Honestly for paying $185 cleaning fee I feel the place should have been cleaner. As soon as we got in we packed a cooler for the beach. Ice fell on the floor and as I wiped it up with a paper towel, I was shocked it was so dirty. Bathroom floor was the same.
