About the host

Hosted by Cindy Ikerd

Host profile image
We love the beach and the convenient location of Southern Sands is perfect. 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.
