Beautiful Spacious Beach House

My family and I recently stayed at the Coastal Sands property for the Morgan Wallen Sand in your boots Festival. Although we spent majority of our time at the festival, the time we did have at the property was memorable! We had six adults and two teenage boys and had plenty of room for other guest if we had a larger party. From the epic balcony views to the relaxing private pool this is definitely a wonderful place for you to enjoy a nice beach vacation!! We will definitely be booking again!

Great Location in Gulf Shores

Nice home in lovely neighborhood, very close to beach. No major complaints about the house, but some aspects could have been better (e.g., Keurig coffee maker needs to be replaced [it brews coffee, but not well]; exposed cables for wi-fi in bedrooms and closets; locks on exterior doors are horrible [difficult to lock/unlock; one broke during our stay and required two visits by maintenance]; sinks in master bathroom are very small; washer/dryer are positioned awkwardly high in basement closet). But, overall, a nice rental property. Secluded beach is a very short walk from house and private pool for the house is set back nicely (so neighbors are not directly watching you swim).

Spring Break

We loved the location of the house. It was away from all of the Spring break crowd, but it was an easy drive to go check out shops and restaurants. We loved the quick, easy access to the beach. The house was perfect for our stay.Kitchen was fully equipped, minus sauté/frying pans. There was a griddle that we just ended up using for everything.

Good Vacation

The A/C went out the first day we were there...bad deal! However, the property management company had someone there that night. While he was unable to repair the A/C that night he did leave us with 3 portable units to help keep the house somewhat comfortable. The A/C was fixed the next day, which allowed me and my family to enjoy the rest of our stay. We absolutely loved the fact that the house was located in a gated community with private beach access away from the public beaches. The community was clean and safe, which made us feel 100% comfortable with our girls walking back and forth to and from the beach. If you've never been to Gulf Shore make sure you take your patience as the traffic is absolutely terrible, but other than that we had a really good time in what was really good accommodations.

Great beach, awesome private pool

Great stay with three families and kids! We were disappointed the fishing pier hadn’t been rebuilt yet and pictures on the listing did not reflect that - we had some disappointed boys that had planned on fishing all week. Also, garage doors are broken, so no extra cars there; and kayak was locked up with no access or instructions for use. Pool was perfect for the kids!

Slight issue getting in upon arrival, but a phone call fixed our problem. No hot water, but solved next day. Decided not to pay the extra to heat the pool. Never figured out the sound system and had problems connecting to some tvs, but figured it out for the most part. Loved the location. Would definitely return.

Great home for multiple families

We had such a wonderful stay at Coastal Sands! We loved the location and the beauty backing up to the lagoon. The house was clean and tastefully decorated. The kitchen was well stocked, and we appreciated the large closet in the master where we were able to tuck our infant in a pack and play and have a door to close. The home could use some minor repairs like the whole house sound system not working, broken garage doors, slow to drain master sink and a hard to close back door. We did not attempt to contact the property manager over these manners, so we like to think they would have made every attempt to repair them. These things did not prevent us from enjoying our vacation and were more like minor inconveniences. This is our second stay in the neighborhood and we really loved the views from this home!

Only one thing missing

This house was fantastic. It was everything we wanted - quiet community, walking distance to the beach w/o having to cross a busy street, ample space, and plenty of bathrooms. We were a mix of family and friends (three couples + 3 teens + a 6 y.o. + 1 y.o. twins). This house was perfect for us. The master bedroom allowed space for our 2 pack-n-plays for the twins and a twin daybed for our six y.o. with space left over to move about. The teens shared the main floor bedroom with the other two couples in the second floor bedrooms. We cooked and cooked and cooked in large kitchen. Everything (utensil, pot, or pan) you could need was there. There were not seasonings however, so do bring or plan to buy your own. The kids enjoyed the pool everyday. The filter wasn't on when we got there but one call and that was fixed the same day. The private, community access to the beach was exactly what we wanted - an easy, safe walk for the kids (and us). My only complaint is that the upstairs beds were too soft. It feels silly to even share that but it'd be my only change to this house - firmer mattresses upstairs. We plan to visit again next year and can't wait.

Great location, walking distance to the beach

Great place for a girls getaway weekend. The pool was perfect for our party of 7. Management was very responsive via text when the pool heater needed to be adjusted and we were looking for beach chair rental. Easy walking distance to the beach and the community pool. Kitchen is well stocked with utensils, plates, etc. Plenty of room to hang out as a group but the house is large enough to find quiet space for the introverts in your party.

The perfect get away!

The house was INCREDIBLE! We had 3 families, 6 adults and 5 kids ranging from 12 years to 10 months and there was plenty of room. House was very clean. AC worked great! The pool is quite a bit smaller than what it looks like in pictures but still was fine as we weren’t all in at once. Neighborhood was awesome as was its pool and location to the beach! Beach was EMPTY which we loved. Correspondence with property management wasn’t great. Got no response to emails leading up to the trip and the texts they sent were very surface level with little knowledge as to when we could early check in, the pools temp etc. They had no idea how hot the pool was or would be heated to if we did pay the large fee to heat for 4 days. pool was not cleaned up from the hurricane until it’s regularly scheduled date/they wouldn’t send someone out before our arrival so we had to clean it out ourselves to swim. Besides a so so management company the house itself was amazing! Def bring your own toilet paper etc as there was one roll per bathroom. But towels were great, beds were fine and kitchen had all dishes you could need!

Would stay in Gulf Shores again

Everything about the location is great and the house is great. Plenty of stuff to do in the area and the property is secluded so you get a nice quiet beach. I had three issues while there with the property. Our pool was quite dirty, our internet went out along with some electrical issues due to a storm. All of this is certainly ok if dealt with, but it wasn't taken care of. I notified the property company the morning after the storm (night one of our stay) and neither issue was resolved before we left. We can deal without internet, we did not go there to stay inside... but when I notified them of the issue they asked me to call the cable company? I don't like calling them when I'm home let alone when on vacation. I am fairly tech savvy and offered to restart the network if they could point me in the direction of the modem and router. They did not tell me where it was located. The larger issue in my eyes was the pool. We intentionally got a house with a pool so we could use it. The pool became so dirty that nobody wanted to get in. Fortunately the community pool was a quick walk. Highly recommend the area, it's a nice place to stay. The Laguna Key community where the house is located is a great location too. The road dead-ends at the community, there is nothing past this group of houses. It's gate can patrolled by security so you really only see people that are staying there. We had a total of 6 kids and 4 adults, the house easily accommodated all of us without feeling crowded.
