About the host

Hosted by Stay with Blue Sage - Anne & Chandler

Host profile image
We purchased this condo to use as a getaway to relax and soak up the sun. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do! Chandler prefers the pool setting while Anne likes the beach, and the San Carlos is the best of both worlds.

Why they chose this property

We love the beach and what better way to enjoy it than from a beach front property! The location of the San Carlos in Gulf Shores can't be beat. We like to walk and be near the attractions and restaurants. The sugar white sand is beautiful. Gulf Shores is the perfect place for making memories with family.

What makes this property unique

For a 2 bedroom condo, the unit is so spacious, and we like the direct access to the private patio from the master bedroom. We love that you can hear the waves from inside the bedroom too. It's very relaxing! The pool is one of the largest you will find + only mere steps to the sand.
