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.

Perfect place for families!

The condo was in the perfect location for a family get away. Close to so many activities! Beach access was awesome and the pool was a perfect size for our son! Everything was clean and in great condition. The elevator was out for a while on our second day but was back up and runnIng quickly. We will definitely book again!!

Perfect get away spot

Location, location, location. This property is within walking distance of the heart of Gulf Shores. My kids loved skim boarding on the beach. I really like that it is a smaller property. If you are looking for a busy, hectic resort style condo this isn’t t it. If you are looking for a true relaxing vacation this is your spot.

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!

We"ve been to southern sands several times. This was by far, the best furnished units we've ever had... real furniture, comfortable beds. Good pans and utensils. Host extremely easy to communicate with. Beds assortment worked perfectly for us! Housekeeper does fantastic job. Thank you so much for sharing this home away from home.

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.

Late Summer Visit

Room was clean and just as described. Beds are comfortable and condo gets nice and cool at night for sleeping. Location is wonderful as you are able to walk to several restaurants and shops. Everything you need is included in the kitchen - even cooking spray and aluminum foil. Check-In was a breeze and the starter essentials helped a lot!

Excellent Location!

The place was incredibly clean with an excellent beach view. The a/c worked amazingly well! The building is within walking distance to souvenir shops and delicious restaurants. The smaller size of the entire building made it really convenient to access our vehicles, the beach, and the pool. It would have been better for us if the parking pass had been left in the unit for us rather than mailed. However, we had an amazing time and can’t wait to go back next summer!

Great location, very clean

I love that it is so close to the "T" (where Hwy 59 hits Beach Blvd) and it was impressively clean and decorated so cute. It is an older building, so you can hear the neighbors more than at other places, but it wasn't bad. We sleep with white noise, so wasn't too much of an issue for us. Washer and dryer aren't in the unit, but are right across from it. We didn't need them during our stay because there were plenty of linens in the unit. We would stay here again.
