Beautiful View
The condo was great for our stay at the beach for our baseball world series. The location is great. We enjoyed walking to several restaurants. The view from the balcony is beautiful. The elevator did break one day, but they had it repaired very quick. Host is very fast to respond. We would stay here again.

Great place to stay!
We loved our stay at Southern Sands. The condo was perfect for our family. We love staying in a smaller and less crowded facility. We always had chairs at the pool and it was never too crowded. The location was great and the view from the balcony was amazing. We’ll definitely consider a return trip.

Excellent condo on the beach!
This was our first family trip to Gulf Shores and this condo made the overall trip fantastic. It was spacious and has everything you need for a home away from home. It was clean and you could even see the beach right from the balcony. The location was great as there are many restaurants and shopping writhing walking distance and it’s right on the beach.The owners had great communication the entire time and we couldn’t have been happier with our stay. We will always keep this condo in mind for future trips!

Beautiful, clean condo.
We wanted a getaway to Gulf Shores for a few days and found this to be the perfect place. The condo was well stocked and clean. Nice view of the Gulf from the balcony. We walked to the Hangout for shrimp. We drove to Bahama Bob’s the next night but it is actually a shorter distance than the Hangout, just in the other direction. We plan to return again soon!

Family Vacation
The property was exactly as listed. It was perfect for our family. The host gave great instructions about the u-turn needed to enter the complex. It was a great location near the shops and the Hang Out. It was just steps to the beach and pool was never crowded. The layout of the condo was exactly as listed and worked well for our family. The beds were comfortable. There were extra hooks in the bathrooms for swimwear. The condo had everything we needed and you can tell the host is ready for renters.

Perfect vacation stay
We loved this condo and everything about it. I loved that it isn’t a busy high rise and it’s very quiet. Short walk to the beach and restaurants nearby. I have a son and daughter so the 2nd bedroom with a queen and full bed was just what we needed. Cindy is a great host and answered any questions I had. Would definitely book again!

This was our happy place!
Overall experience was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Our boy's had their own bedroom, beds, and bathroom! Walking distance to so many restaurants, souvenir shops and most importantly just a few steps to an amazing beach! The owner was helpful and engaged with us before our trip & this was very appreciated! This was our 1st VRBO experience and I was a little apprehensive, but that quickly went away as soon as we opened the door. Can't wait to come back to gulf shores!

Accommodating condo
This was my friends condo. We went as a group. This condo was much more accommodating then the one we stayed in in the same building. Well stocked kitchen. More updated unit better sleeping accommodations, a vacuum, you don’t realize how nice that is when dragging sand in all week, all the kitchen tools you’d need and even a few herbs and spices. The grounds need some cleaning up. I know there have been wicked storms over the past year, but you can’t walk up to the beach barefoot because there are rusty broken stucco pieces everywhere. All said though, we would definitely come back to this unit.

Relax and Get Away
The perfect place to relax and enjoy the beach. I was given all the information needed before arrival, so i had an easy time getting there. Loved all the beach decor inside. The sand on the beach is so soft on your feet. Please keep your little cozy place available. I don't want to stay in a 20 story building that blocks the view of the sunset.

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Ikerd

Host profile image
We love the beach and the convenient location of Southern Sands. We've owned our unit since 1997 and have loved every minute of our time in Gulf Shores. Now that we are retired, we can barely stay away! Our children and grandchildren love it as much as we do. Come visit us soon at Southern Sands 203!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the great view, the beautiful beach and the smallness of this complex. There are only 18 units, which means the beach is never over crowded and there is ample parking. There are many great restaurants and souvenir shops within walking distance. The convenience is just what we were looking for. This complex is family friendly and snowbirds are welcome!

What makes this property unique

From Southern Sands you can walk to Pink Pony Pub, The Hangout, Lauria's, Desotos, The Steamer, and Sea N Suds. There are also several souvenir shops along the way.
