Erica's Sandpiper. 8BR Beachfront. Heatable Pool. Single story!
Erica's Sandpiper 2075 West Beach Blvd
Awesome place. BRAND NEW decks everywhere, with extra gates to corral kids. Erica's Sandpiper rocks!
Erica.... Erica is my daughter! Used to be small.... not so much anymore! Sandpiper. Well, the bird. Erica's Sandpiper? Your new favorite beach home in Gulf Shores!
This spacious upscale home gives you your own private covered pool added to an already fabulous home. Erica's Sandpiper is a very cool option. It, along with my Summertide home, are likely the only 8 bedroom homes with all 8 bedrooms on the same floor! Can't quite afford my homes with elevators but have some mobility concerns? Single floor!
Erica's Sandpiper has all eight bedrooms, yes EIGHT, situated on one floor! Looking for the perfect home for your family gathering or reunion, look no further. This beautiful home has the following bedding arrangements:
BEDDING: Northeast Bedroom: King Northwest Bedroom: King Southeast Bedroom: King Southwest Bedroom: 2 Queens Northeast Middle Bedroom: King Northwest Middle Bedroom: 2 Queens Southeast Middle Bedroom: King Southwest Middle Bedroom: Twin over Full Bunk
South Living Room: Queen Sleeper Sofa Middle Living Room: Queen Sleeper Sofa
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:
Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector)
Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property)
