The Sands unit 107
Great location. Ann was great to work with. Had a few issues. The place could have been cleaner. Didn’t look like it had been cleaned prior to our arrival. Furniture could use updating. We could not use the pool. We still managed to have a good time.

Perfect location
Could use upgraded bed frames they squeak a lot with movement and more toiletry items such as toilet paper but overall we enjoyed our stay. My kids loved the board games.

About the host

Hosted by Ann Bersson

Host profile image
We are homeowners in the Sands Complex and purchased this unit so that we could share our enjoyment of the beach and this complex with others. Our unit is just across the pool from this rental and we have enjoyed The Sands with our family for over 10 years. This is where we vacation and continue to make memories. We know that you will want to come back every year.

Why they chose this property

Why be cramped in a tiny hotel room? That's no vacation at all! You will love this 1000 sq ft 2-BR townhome. It is just across the street from the public beach access with traffic controlled pedestrian access. Walking distance to the center of town and restaurants and shopping. It was fully updated this year. It has been completely cleaned and painted throughout. We use a professional cleaning company between stays.

Gulf Shores is a wonderful family friendly beach town. The city is very visitor oriented and has added 8 ft. sidewalks and bike lanes for the safe travel of our guests. The Hangout is a great example. It is a large beachfront restaurant with unbelievable views and includes a fantastic outdoor area with live music where adults can enjoy a relaxing drink while children enjoy a safe and fun play area and games. It's a favorite for visitors and locals alike.

What makes this property unique

The space this rental provides is unique in a beach rental. We have a large family, and we've found that even on vacation it's good to have some space to stretch out. We love the small size of the complex ---feels much more personal than a huge highrise. Your rental is literally steps to the Beach and the proximity to public access means no parking hassles. We love that we can walk to dinner and souvenier/beach shops.
