About this property
PRIME SPOT!!! 3BR/2BA Condo Overlooking Pool & Across from Beach!
*MUST BE 21+ TO BOOK!!!* Come to the beautiful beaches of Gulf Shores and stay in our recently updated, owner managed, cottage-style townhome with an ocean and lagoon view! You will enjoy easy, walking distance access to the beach, restaurants, shopping, and more! The sugary white sandy beaches and emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico are directly across the street! Getting to the beach is safe and easy thanks to the dedicated pedestrian light and crosswalk. The beach is just a 2 min walk and is staffed by lifeguards, for your safety and also has a boardwalk, a bath house, and chairs/umbrellas for rent. The Hangout/center of town is just a 14 min walk away where you will find numerous restaurants, live music, souvenir shops, and the locations of the famous Hangout Festival and Shrimp Festival. A 5 min walk from our place will bring you to Bahama Bob’s for delicious seafood, Pier 33 for groceries and souvenirs, West Beach Coffee House, and Seaside Package for all your beverage needs. Other attractions such as Waterville USA, the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo, mini-golf, The Wharf, The Track, and the Bon Secour Wildlife Refuge are only a short drive away.
The Sands complex has a shared pool for you to enjoy when you’ve had enough of the sand and saltwater and a sand volleyball court with hammocks, picnic tables, and outdoor grills! There are 2 reserved parking spaces underneath the unit and on-site parking for extra vehicles and/or other toys with no parking passes needed! It is located on West Beach sandwiched between the Gulf of Mexico and Little Lagoon. Boat access is not far away and arrival to The Sands during busy festival weekends is a breeze via Windmill Ridge Rd. This small, quite complex has just 16 units and is ideal for families. There are no slow, smelly elevators to wait for. Just park directly underneath and walk right in!
Unit 119 is situated in the back corner of the complex and away from both nearby streets. It has been conveniently outfitted with keyless entry so you don’t have to worry about losing keys. This unit is 2 story, with 2 flights of stairs, and no one above or below you. It has 2 private balconies, which directly overlook the pool so you can keep an eye on the little ones. The unit comes stocked with bed linens, bath towels and cloths, beach towels, and beach sheets. The kitchen has an electric griddle, blender, cast iron skillets, a crock-pot, and more! You will also find a starter supply of paper towels, laundry and dish washing detergent, soap, shampoo, and conditioner in the bathrooms. There are enough beds to sleep 10 adults and/or children. This is a NON-SMOKING unit.
GROUND/PATIO LEVEL:
Here you will find a bonus area not often found at most locations! This is a great space ideal for watching TV, eating around the outdoor dining table, and hanging out while the kids play in the pool nearby without having to go back and forth into the house! There is an outdoor TV, an outdoor shower, and beach supplies for your use.
MAIN LEVEL:
On the main floor, you will find a recently updated, well stocked kitchen with stainless appliances, granite counter tops, a pantry, and plenty of cabinet space. The living area is spacious with a sofa and loveseat, a recliner, TV, and balcony access overlooking the pool. The main level also has 1 queen bedroom with new Sealy Posturepedic plush mattress with attached full bath.
UPSTAIRS:
Upstairs you will find a large and spacious master King bedroom with a closet, a TV, attached full bath with double vanity, and private balcony access. The master bed has a Sealy Posturepedic pillowtop king mattress. Down the hall is another Queen bedroom with full over full built-in bunks. In-unit washer and dryer are located in the hallway.
Don’t miss out on this ideally located, spacious townhome with plenty of room for the whole family! Book today!!!

About the host
Hosted by Blake
My wife and I had been looking to purchase a little place to call our own on the Gulf Coast for quite some time. A place we could gather with friends and family and a place to make memories with our family. We found what we were looking for at The Sands! I am originally from Alabama and spent many summer family vacations in Gulf Shores. We currently reside outside of Boulder, CO and love the mountains as much as we love the beach. We hope you enjoy our little piece of beach life paradise, as much as we do!
Why they chose this property
We were really looking for a more intimate and "homey feeling" type of property. Not one of the big concrete condo towers. We wanted to be able to just pull up, park underneath, and walk into our place and we found exactly what we were looking for at The Sands. We love the walking access to the beach, restaurants, shopping, etc. We also love the fact that it's such a small complex, without all of the crowds. The Sands is the perfect place for us and we hope you enjoy it too! We are also a member of Alabama Vacation Home Rentals. Find us there and check out all of our reviews!
