About this apartment rental
SOUTH WINDS Unit #8 Our condo is in the middle of everything. It is 2 blocks from the "T" (the intersection of Hwy. 59 and Beach Blvd, at the Hangout). Park your car and never have to leave. Walk to The Hangout, The Pink Pony, Bahama Bobs, The Shrimp Basket and The Steamer just to name a few. There are also lots of souvenir shops also within walking distance. You can eat, drink and shop without ever getting in your car. How great is that!! You get a great view of the white sand beaches of Gulf Shores right from the large front deck with no high rises to block your view. This is a small and quiet complex with only 12 units. Great for families and kids. You can enjoy the large front deck with the beach views or sit back with a cold drink and watch the beautiful sunsets. You can also enjoy our small private balcony just off the living room with views of the beach also. This is a GREAT place for nice evening dinners. It is an easy 1 minute walk to the beach with easy beach access. We have a cross walk and light just in front of the condo for your convenience. Just cross the street and your toes are in the sand. To make is easy to tote the 6 beach chairs, beach mats, 6 beach towels and the beach umbrella that we provide we also have a beach cart. Did I mention we have a hard cooler and a couple of small soft coolers? No dragging all that stuff from home or having to buy it when you get here. WE HAVE IT FOR U!! If you'd rather stay in and chill after a long day at the beach we do have a charcoal grill. We have a few small appliances for easy meals also. The kitchen is FULLY stocked with probably anything you would need. There are 2 great bedrooms with queen beds, HDTV's, and each with a roll a way bed for overflow. You have views of the beach from both bedrooms. There is a full bath with tub/shower combo upstairs and a full bath with shower downstairs. If you like the colors of the sand and the ocean you will love this condo. It has soothing beach colors and is light, bright and airy. There is free WIFI and FREE covered parking for 2 cars directly under the unit. The condo is approximately 1150 sq. feet. There is a full-size laundry room with full size W/D. We do have a pool on site and also a shower beneath the unit to shower off after that long day at the beach. We have board games and cards for those unexpected rainy days. The HANGOUT FESTIVAL is directly in the front of our condo. Streets are blocked off for walking to and from the festival with no traffic to fight. No driving, no parking fees and no hassle. Or if you prefer you can just sit on either deck with a cold one and listen to the live music and watch the people go by. It's GREAT!! I know you'll enjoy it as much as we do.. Thank you for checking us out and we hope you find your perfect vacation spot..

This condo is fabulous! Booking, check-in, and check-out were simple and stress free. Sonjie and Danny are very responsive to any questions or concerns, and made the process simple with the information they provide. The location is excellent, as it is close to so much, especially the beach. The decor in the condo is absolutely perfect, fitting, and so relaxing! The kitchen has all the amenities needed, there are two full baths, and even a cot in each of the large bedroom closets. The pool is nice too, though we didnt utilize it during our stay. The extras that were provided like the beach buggy, chairs, and umbrella made our visit to the beach so much more enjoyable as well. The restaurants in the area were great and all within walking distance. Our favorite breakfast place is the Sunliner Diner! There is a Dollar General nearby too (next to the diner) for quick first-aid items or other last minute items. We sat on the front deck our last evening here just to enjoy the beach waves and the breeze before calling it a night. There are so many great things about this condo that my sister and I have already decided that we have to come back and book it again. I highly recommend this condo! It will not disappoint.

We love this cute condo so much! We have stayed three times now! Danny and Sonjie are a delight to deal with and have done a phenomenal job making their condo a one of a kind! It is decorated like a magazine photo and has everything you need for your stay. Let alone a great location! Right across from the beach and walking distance to so many places!. Great place!

The best VRBO we have ever stayed in! Very clean, everything is updated and the location is perfect! Walking distance to whatever you need. Property owners were great to work with, very detailed information about the condo and surrounding area. Our first time staying in Gulf Shores. We couldn’t ask for more. I would definitely stay at this condo again!

Can't say enough about how much my husband & I enjoyed our stay. The condo was as beautiful in person as it was in the online photos. Plus we hit the jackpot when it came to location!! Literally can sit out on either deck and see the Gulf. Also walking distance to so many amazing restaurants. We've already booked for next year.

We stayed at the McIver's place for a family wedding. The townhouse was immaculate, nicely stocked, and very comfortable. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were clean, and had a lot of nice towels. The kitchen had plenty of cookware, flatware, and dishes. We used both decks, depending on the time of the day. The morning was best for the front deck and the afternoon, for the back. We walked to a lot while we were there, which was nice! The public beach access is directly across the street, you can see The Hangout from the back deck, and there's a nice little wine bar called Lauria's right up the street, and we visited DeSoto's for a quick bite one afternoon. We didn't get a chance to swim in the pool but we took a look and it's a nice little pool! Overall, we were extremely pleased and it was a great choice for our family of four.
One warning: The front door gets blasted by the afternoon sun and burned my son's hand when he went to open the door. This, of course, has nothing to do with the owners or the townhouse but just to be mindful of if you have little kids!

This place is literally in the perfect spot. Cross the street and your on the beach.
Walk 2 blocks either way and you have shops and great places to eat.

The kitchen was stocked with everything needed to cook
The sunrises are amazing. The beach is amazing.
There is a fold up twin in each room but we didn’t need.
We had everything we needed for a perfect week.
Owners very easy to work with.
The entire building was quite and friendly folks.
We will definitely be back to this place.

Great remodeled unit within 5 mins of the Hangout and other great places to each and shop. Unit is right at intersection with crosswalk to the beach in about 3 mins. The unit is comfortable, the items included like beach towel and umbrellas were great, and I felt it was a great value.

This was our second time to stay at his property. It is just as described and the perfect walkable location to beach, shops, and restaurants! The front deck is our favorite spot to watch the sunset and enjoy a meal or a cocktail! Sonji is a wonderful host who answered our questions quickly and kept in touch before and during our stay.we will be back (hopefully soon)!

Great location
Location was great if you want to be within walking distance to shops, restaurants and beach. Front and back deck were great and we utilized both. Great to listen to live music at night and people watch. Pool onsite was nice for a quick cool down. Beach is right across the street with no high rise condos blocking the view. Area is busy and can be loud, so probably better suited to adults and teens. Enjoyed having a full washer and dryer in unit and was nicely decorated! Would book again!

We had the best stay in Sonjie & Danny’s VRBO! It is located right across the street from the beach, there is a stop light with a crosswalk to make the trip across easier. There is a storage area available with beach chairs, umbrella, coolers, and a wagon to tote it all across to the beach. We loved being able to walk to some of our favorite restaurants for dinner, they were all within a block or two and a very easy walk. The condo was very clean and beautifully decorated. It was very nice to have an adequate supply of towels and washcloths available when we arrived. (We’ve rented from a company in the area before and had to rush out to purchase extra towels and things to use before.)
Sonjie was so great in answering questions we had before we arrived. Check in and check out instructions were clear and easy. Thank you so much for sharing your property with us! We loved our week! We will be back again!

Perfect Vacation!
The property and owners were fabulous! The location is amazing - sandy beach and beautiful water only steps from the condo! Close to shopping and restaurants as well.
My husband was able to fish both off the pier (had to drive to get there) as well as across the street away from the public beach (used a beach cart to haul equipment). Very clean and filled with pride in all the details. Gulf Shores was a great vacation, and our stay was perfect! We will be back! Thank you, again.

The location of this property is super convenient! It’s across the street from the public beach area and a block from the T. Close to The Hangout, DeSotos, shopping and easy to get to. The condo is SUPER clean, and had all the amenities we were looking for. There was some construction, due to hurricane damage but we never actually heard it, so it was no bother to us at all.
There is covered parking and the hosts are kind enough to supply beach chairs, umbrellas and a beach cart to make trips across the street easier.
There was room for the 5 of us to spread out and not be on top of each other the whole trip. There is a fully stocked kitchen (and I mean FULLY STOCKED!). The bedrooms are large, with comfy beds and pillows, and flat screen TVs. The bathrooms are nicely decorated with updated fixtures.
This condo is beautiful and the owners were incredible to work with. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!!!
