Erica's Sandpiper is located directly on the Gulf Coast. The only thing between you and the Gulf is beach and, of course, your own private covered swimming pool and spacious Gulf front deck.

Other amenities include TWO refrigerators, televisions, dvd players, cable, internet, 2 large living areas, and covered parking. The master bath has a shower and tub. Multiple bedrooms have balcony access.

Erica's Sandpiper is a truly luxurious EIGHT bedroom home with all the deluxe amenities you've come to expect from our vacation homes and many surprises! She books quickly even a year out.

Erica's Sandpiper, by the way, is RIGHT NEXT DOOR to my Egret home (6 bedroom, also single story), so if you need more room to spread out, rent both (if either is even available... these go fast!).

What else More of course!

TWO REFRIGERATORS
Yes, two per side. Because... you need a lot of space for shrimp and beverages!

POOL You bet!
Pool is under the home. A bit like an indoor pool. Big: 24x12x3-5 FT Rectangle! Great respite from hot hot hot, as well as inclement weather! Heatable too (nightly surcharge applies). Added a propane gas pool heater, so YES the pool is heatable to a maximum of 82' (the high side of recommended rec pool temps) to take the chill off! This service is by request in advance with a nightly surcharge (varies by season and with gas market price, has been $60-85 per night, just inquire, and must be for length of stay (this is based on market pricing for propane gas, and can change at any time, both up and down, until added to a reservation). Fee subject to change due to incredibly high gas rates right now. Simply request the pool be heated any time after making the reservation and at least a week before check in so we can get it on before you arrive.

PARKING
There is available onsite parking for at least 8 cars. More if you park under them home and stack carefully.

WIFI/INTERNET
YES! We have an awesome Eero mesh network to ensure excellent wifi coverage throughout this spacious home. Spotty coverage is always an issue for big places. Sure internet may work next to the router in the living room, but what about the far reaches of the home! That's why we installed a multi-node mesh network. And what's the internet like It is generally solid and ran > 100Mb down the last test--sufficient for several simultaneous video conference sessions for remote work and education. Internet is, of course, an amenity and subject to service provider outages (and guests troubleshooting it), especially with the havoc the sand and salt wreak on cabling and facilities, no more so than any other home on the beach though, and likely better since its close in and new construction!

SOAPS, TOWELS, COFFEE, ETC ETC
As with most beach homes in the area, the local mgt co provide what they call a starter supply of soaps, toilet paper, and paper towels, etc. Enough for the first night to get you going! Please plan to bring or purchase additional supplies, and any cleaning or pantry supplies you may need, or to make a quick run to the store (or have it delivered!). You will want to bring beach towels or beach chairs as well. Because mgt cos will not generally support them, grills are not provided, though they are sometimes inherited from prior guests: your mileage may vary on this, and we usually assess and then go snag a small charcoal kettle when we come down ourselves. Also of note: at many locations, you may find the bunk beds (and certain other beds) are not fully made--instead a bedding pack is provided. This is a common practice for the local management companies, which is both green (if the bedding is not used, it doesn't have to be laundered) AND more sanitary--housekeeping does not have to crawl on the bunks and so on to make the beds. Also also... all our homes have drip coffee makers and most now have Keurigs as well.

No smoking please. No pets.

SNOWBIRDS! Up to 2/3rds off for off-season stays of 28 days or longer.

MORE ROOM ANOTHER PLACE Or... a little LESS SPACE
We own 4 great homes right by each other. Egret is closest, 1 door away, and has the same great single story layout with two living rooms but is a 6 bedroom. And, very close by are Dancing Dolphin and Blue Heron (two 5 bedrooms, 1 door from each other). Check them out:

    We loved, loved, LOVED the beach house and we're considering making this an annual trip if not every other year. If you'll have us, that is. In fact, I talked it up so much to my family, another vacation may be in the works with the fam as well! I so wanted to take advantage of your booking discount however I wasn't sure of everyone's availability. Thanks again for allowing us to stay & we truly hope to have the opportunity to stay again. Have a great summer, enjoy your family & be safe!

    We have stayed in Gulf Shores, AL with Bama Beach Houses three times now in the past several years at three different beach houses. The last two houses were one level houses, Summertide and Erica's Sandpiper. Both of those houses have eight (8) bedrooms. We had no problems at any of their houses, the management company was responsive when contacted (entry code did not work once), and the owners were also very responsive. Our stay this year at Erica's Sandpiper was remarkable. Plenty of room for our crew of nineteen (19), big kitchen with two (2) refrigerators, bathrooms en-suite in each bedroom, large rectangular heated pool under the house, easy access to the beach. We already are looking forward to returning next year. [? Wow! Thank you so much Doug! We really appreciate you and your family staying in our homes! Glad you all had a fantastic time at each location, and that you found Erica's Sandpiper to be a remarkable stay! I really appreciate you all honoring us with your repeated patronage, and taking the time to share your experience too! Glad you are already locked in for next year as those houses are full already for a year away! ? We are here for you if you need anything at all. Have a great year, and see you next year! ?]

    We had a great time staying in Erika's Sandpiper. There was plenty of room to spread out and each room has its own bathroom which is fabulous. The kitchen was well stocked with mixers, pans, bowls, a toaster, etc and had 2 refrigerators which helped out a lot with a big group. Plenty of parking for our cars and a great space underneath with the pool area. We will definitely come back!

    We absolutely loved our stay at Erica’s. The house is beautiful and I have to say the pictures online really don’t do the house justice. We were in awe when we arrived! So much space and beauty! The house was clean. The pool was clean (and just a great asset for our family). We loved the deck, the short trip to the beach and we all just had a great vacation. Thank you!

    Our family decided for the first time to have Christmas away from home and on the beach. Erica’s Sandpiper provided us with a great location, access to the beach and restaurants and a cozy home to spend time together when it was a little chilly outside this time of year.

    We celebrated our 40th anniversary with extended family. The house was perfect for our needs. It was far enough from condos to not have a big beach crowd but an easy drive to town. We had two small things we needed fixing. We called first night and they were fixed the next morning. We left a couple pieces of clothing. They found them before we even missed the and mailed them. It was great!

    The house was great. We have a large family and everyone had their own space. Kitchen had almost everything you need. It is only a short walk to the beach! And the heated pool was great for the little ones and adults of an evening.

    Very happy with our stay. A few minor things that I made host aware of. Broken table on back porch (side was chipped), trash can in the kitchen was the same. There was a tropical storm while we were there, some rain blew in the sliding doors, small enough to clean up with a towel, and microwave quit working after slight power surge during the storm. Host was very attentive throughout stay. House was beautiful and pvt beach access was the best!!!

    We loved staying at Erica’s Sandpiper. It was in a beautiful, quiet spot right on the gulf. Far enough away from the crowds, but close enough to make grocery store runs or go out to eat. The inside had plenty of space and was very clean.

    House was great for our family. Tons of bedrooms and each had an en suite bathroom though some bathrooms and showers are fairly small so take that into consideration when deciding who sleeps where:) The house was well appointed though there is a bit of wear and tear. Nothing that hindered our enjoyment or wouldn’t be expected from a house being steadily rented. We loved the layout with the central kitchen and two separate sitting / living rooms. Location is fabulous and can’t be beat; the beach is nice and quiet. We had no problems at all during our stay and the check in process / emails made things very easy. We would recommend the house and the rental company.

    It was wonderful trip! So many memories made. And the house was perfect, everyone could have some privacy when the needed and we loved the 2 living areas. We sure added more laughter into walls and ceilings. I am positive that you will be hearing from us again for another trip. We did not have need to contact the local Mgt Co. So evidently they did good.... Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

    We loved our stay at Erica's Sandpiper! This one story was surprisingly spacious, with an easy walk to the beach and large pool. Location is away from the crowded high rises, but close enough to anything you want to do in Gulf Shores. Would recommend! [? Thank you Mandy! Glad you all had a great ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ time! Reach out to me or Bama Beach Houses if you have any suggestions, or when ready to set up that return trip! Have a great rest of the summer, and year!]

    The house layout is great for a big family. The location is perfect and the pool area was nice. We loved having a bathroom for every bedroom. It was clean at check-in. Suggestions would be new mattresses, new couches and tall chairs for the balcony.

    It was a great week. We had four generations of our family there. We have been going to Gulf Shores as a family for 34 years. I think we have been renting this house for 11 or 12 years. Plan to go back next year. Thanks again and I hope you have a blessed day. [Thank you! Happy to host you all year over year for so long, making great memories in our home! See you next year!]
