Nice place

Wish I could have a do over of the stay as the 3 flights of stairs were brutal and I didn’t realize there was an elevator until the day we left HAH! Nice view from the balcony. My only complaint is the balcony furniture is very uncomfortable and the master bed is very squeaky.

Beautiful view

This is a small group of houses in the middle of a larger group of buildings so the pool wasn’t so busy located on the beach so it was easy to move back and forth. All located near just about anything you wanted. Very beautiful, very clean, this is the place you would want for your own place.

Great Condo !!!

We stayed in unit #306 over Labor Day weekend 2024 and really enjoyed it. We loved everything about this place. The only thing we saw that needed attention was the Queen bed, it needs replacing. We will ask for this unit in the future. Thank you for letting us enjoy your condo !!

Great place to stay for a family of 5 clean, close to good food and entertainment walk to the beach

Had a great stay. Was clean a minute or two walk to the beach. Communication with property management was clear. Will definitely be back it was perfect for my family of 5. They only complaint I would have is that you had to keep adjusting the thermostat it was set on a program time and temp would have to cut it down to the desired temperature about 3 times a day would give it 4.5 stars out of 5 everything else was great other than the cleaning crew got there about 30 mins early on the last day and we felt rushed to leave

Spring break!

Great location right on the beach and a small walk from all the shops, ice cream and restaurants! #306 has an amazing view beach front view, pictures don’t do it justice. Our condo was the perfect size for me, my husband and our 14 and 15 year old boys. We loved that it was a “smaller” unit of 18 condos and not a packed high rise hotel. If we come back to Gulf Shores we will definitely be staying at Southern Sands again! I recommend it to everyone!

Weekend Get Away

If you’re looking for a little place to comfortably sleep & shower with cold AC, on the beach, this is it. It’s so nice to be at a smaller venue with less competition for a dip in the pool/parking, etc. The wide balcony stretches across two rooms (the living room and one bedroom) and is one of the best in this complex. It has places for 6 people to enjoy morning coffee or a last call nightcap. I would definitely rent this place again with a small group. Perfect for a weekend get away for two couples and a guest or two who don’t mind a pull out bed.

Perfect oceanfront condo...

I've stayed at this complex before, so knew it was a low-density condo with absolutely amazing oceanfront views. And, with this stay, we were not disappointed. The condo was VERY clean and had everything we needed for a short stay. The location is ideal, we could walk to almost everything. The only drawback was the check-in process for this unit. We had to stop at a building on the way in to town to pick up a check-in packet, which was an inconvenience. Since parking passes can be left in the unit, there is a keypad entry, and we used the VRBO app to reserve the condo, I'm not sure why it was necessary to pick up a parking pass and a piece of paper with our code on it. But, it was a small inconvenience to stay at a great condo!

One issue but not the big of a deal

We had a great time at the beach and this condo was everything we had expected it to be. Great location, clean, comfortable. The only issue we had was the refrigerator NEVER got cold! A lot of our food went bad the first day. Maintenance was sent over to look at it but he said we just needed to give it time. So we bought a bunch of coolers and kept everything on ice to give it time to cool down. It. Never. Cooled Down. Even on our last day. However we would still recommend this place to others, you can’t beat the location and popular attractions:)
