    Home is located in a great area close to south beach. Kids were able to ride their bikes to the village. The layout of the home is perfect for families. Nice back yard and comfy beds. Wonderful hot showers! We would stay here again

    Love this property! It is the perfect location for me and my dogs to walk to the pier everyday. When we aren’t doing that, we enjoy the backyard and front gated porch! Management is very responsive and the property is clean and comfortable. Can’t wait to come back!

    The property was beautiful in a quiet neighborhood, our dogs loved playing in the backyard. The house is a 20 minute walk from Pier village, where there is shopping and restaurants. And it was an 8 minute drive to the coastguard beach, which has bathrooms on site. The kitchen was fully stocked making cooking at the house a breeze.

    we had a lovely time at the house over Christmas. the house was well lit, kitchen fully stocked with all the equipment we needed, and the layout of the home was very spread out. our dog loved the wide open backyard. the house was close to the pier area and had easy access to everything on the island. we would give the house 5 stars and would definitely stay here again.

    Sanderling Cottage was great. So close the the lighthouse area and the wharf. Short drive over to East Beach. The cottage was comfortable and clean and just the right size for five of us. We would’ve liked a regular bed in the 3rd bedroom instead of the Murphy Bed. It was a bit creaky and not as comfortable. The yard was beautiful and great for our pup. We would definitely stay again!

    The house was perfect for what we were looking for during our stay. Everything was very clean and all items we needed were provided. Communication with the host was very prompt. We also appreciated the gear rental services provided that dropped off bikes at the house for our stay duration. The neighborhood was very safe for bike riding/walking around with a 2 year old. We also liked the layout of the house where two groups of people could stay on opposite sides of the house for extra noise control. The fenced in backyard was also enjoyable. Would highly recommend!

    We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Sanderling Cottage! So peaceful and quiet, even with the airport close by. Everything one could need was provided: very clean, very well decorated, just the best spot for my DH, myself and my sister (this was a Silly Sisters' Vacation/Birthdays' Adventure). Even our Boston Terrier loved it. Thank you so very much, and we hope to visit again soon. Connie Bentz

    The house was really adorable. But I fell in love with the backyard stayed out there for hours sitting underneath the oak tree and their chairs. Just put a fan on me and you could stay all day and my dogs absolutely loved being back there. The kitchen had everything you needed to make dinners at home The master bedroom the bed was very very comfortable, and I fell in love with their sheets. In fact, I took a picture so I can order them for my bed at home. Will come back

    This property was wonderful for us traveling with our dog. The back yard was perfect for him to run and play with his ball. The house was well appointed and very clean. The beds were very comfortable. Everywhere we went on the Island was super dog-friendly. We had a great vacation. Would definitely recommend.

    This property was clean, well maintained and spacious. Big fenced in backyard was perfect for our dog and the hammock was my daughter's favorite spot! Upon our first shower we noticed that the drain was very slow. We contacted the property manager and it was fixed immediately. They were great in communicating. We would definitely stay here again!

    Check in and check out was very easy. Great location in a quiet neighborhood and not far from downtown pier. The backyard was great for the fur baby. The house was nice and clean. If we ever find ourselves back in SSI we would definitely rent again!

    This was the perfect getaway for me and my 2 dogs while our house was getting reconstructed from a flood. The cottage was immaculately clean and had everything we needed. I will be back.
