About this property

Convenient 1st floor unit. Beautifully updated. Sleeps 6

You will absolutely love the Sandpiper, Unit 1144RCC! This newly updated two bedroom two bath condo in Gulf Shores Plantation's newer and updated Resort Conference Center offers first floor convenience, multiple swimming pools, tennis courts, boardwalks, putting green, hot tubs, and much, much more for groups of up to 6 guests.

Owners freshly painted their unit this year, upgraded the furnishing and linens and beautifully decorated. Brand new sofa and loveseat are so comfortable. The porch off the living area makes a lovely spot to enjoy morning coffee and listen to the waves. It has sturdy resin chairs and table and looks out over the landscaped grounds toward the beachside pool. While the Gulf is not directly visible from the unit, it is only a short walk to the pool and beach where you will enjoy the white sandy beaches.

Just a short drive from Gulf Shores, the expansive beach is sugar white and waiting for you! Next door to Kiva Dunes Golf Course and only minutes from restaurants, fishing and historic Ft. Morgan.

This unit it is convenient for those who have difficulty with stairs or who do not want to wait on the elevator. Another plus, this is an end unit. It is a quick in and out without having to navigate a long hall. It is a fast and easy trip out the gate to the pool, laundry or parking area.

We greatly enjoyed our stay and proximity to the beach. It would be helpful if we could connect the secondary bedroom’s smart tv to internet to access the smart tv features, but we really enjoyed our stay overall.

Thoroughly pleased
I was thoroughly pleased with my week stay at this location. Parking was close to the unit, the unit was close to laundry, pools, and hot tub. It’s the first door once you enter the hall corridor and we found this immensely helpful and never had issues with noise from others coming and going. The property is beautiful and well maintained and the landscaping reminded me of a tropical resort. The unit was also well stocked with necessities such as dish soap, dishwasher soap, paper towels, and toilet paper which was another bonus. The beach chairs, umbrellas, and boogie boards were some of our favorites that we used daily. The beautiful boardwalk to the beach was easy to traverse and short enough to not be a hassle to return to the unit for forgotten items needed on the beach. We had a couple vendors come during our stay and they had no issues with getting through the security stop or parking for the brief time they were there. I would definitely recommend Sandcastle University for an enjoyable hour learning to built amazing sandcastles. My whole family enjoyed this as did others watching on the beach near us. I’ll definitely plan to return to this exact unit in the near future. Martha was easy to work with and responded promptly to any communications we exchanged.

We had such a great time at this property. Everything provided was perfect (i.e. kitchen supplies, towels, toys, beach chairs). I was even impressed with the amount of hooks to hang wet towels, etc. I would definitely book this place again!

Nice place close to beach!
We loved the location - just a short walk to the beach. We drove into Gulf Shores (20-30min drive) a few times but otherwise enjoyed the pools and beach mostly. We came end of March so we used the indoor pool as the outdoor pool was just a little too cold still for our kids. We were grateful for the beach chairs and items available to use.

Great vacation!
We really enjoyed our stay in this unit! The ground floor access to the pool and parking lot were wonderful with a little one and lots of things to carry in and out to the beach! The unit was well stocked and had everything we needed. Being right by the door, there was minimal noise and still felt very private. Very short walk to the beach and the pool is right out the door. We had a wonderful, relaxing time!

Ok, but not a favorite for us…
PROS: lots of kitchen supplies, nice porch furniture, plenty of pools, first floor unit, nice paths to the pool and beach, bonus amenities like tennis and basketball courts. CONS: floors of unit were not clean (tile, rugs, or carpet), without notice or any communication in advance the property mgr came to the unit the evening of our arrival (after we sent an email and photos to let her know about the floors and a few other cleaning/arrival concerns), there were pages of rules pertaining to our use of the condo and visit so it wasn’t quite so relaxing because we were constantly worried about all the must dos and don’ts, washers and dryers will run you about $5 each load and be prepared to wait, the chemicals at the indoor pool were very strong, there was maintenance/repairs being done several days of our visit on the complex (including directly on the porch of the unit that we were in (nothing like awaking to the sound of a drill while on vacation)).

Martha’s condo is in the perfect spot near the pool and hot tub, but close enough to hear the ocean on a quiet day/night. She has everything you’d need for a comfortable stay. We would not hesitate to rent this space again!

Second stay!
Our second time staying in this condo and we love it! Close to pool and beach which is nice when you have small children and are hauling lots of stuff. We enjoy sitting on the patio which has chairs. Condo has been updated since last time we stayed and looks great! Also the unit provides so much more in the way of kitchen cookware/dishes/ etc than all the other VRBO places we have stayed. Thank you for sharing your home with us again!

Why they chose this property


"We would love for you to be our guests! There are many things we love about our unit. The building and grounds are well maintained and beautiful to look at! Our unit is a first floor corner unit which makes it very convenient. Access to the parking area, laundry and the gate to the pool area are just steps outside our door. Our patio overlooks the beautiful courtyard. Because our building is on the western edge of the Plantation property, the beach in front of our building is less crowded. We enjoy spending time here and we're sure you will too!"
