About this house rental
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:

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!

Loved the one level layout!!! Lots of room. The beach area was quiet and private. Hosts were caring and checked on us. Definitely would stay here again! A great experience all around!

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!]
4.0 / 5.0
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!]

We absolutely loved Erica’s Sandpiper. The one story layout was great for some of the older family members to get around. The bedroom layout with each having its own bath was perfect. And there was plenty of space for everyone to spread out. We had some great days out on the deck and easy walks to the beach, which is why we go. Even enough space for card games and puzzles. Definitely recommend

We really enjoyed our stay last summer. All of the upgrades were noticed and greatly appreciated. Thank you for helping us with the lock issue. The people that fixed it were very friendly and responsive to the problem. Thank you! We will be back in 2025!

Our stay was perfect! Weather and water were beautiful all week and the house was perfect for our family! We have been renting houses in the Fort Morgan/Gulf Shores area for 30+ years now and Erica's Sandpiper is officially my favorite. The location and accommodations can't be beat! The new deck was great. We also enjoyed getting to sit on the deck and watch the wedding at the Egret this week. (We stayed at the Egret last year and moved to Erica's Sandpiper this year due to the wedding party having already booked the Egret for this year).
The house was very clean when we arrived and we did not have any issues arise during our stay so we did not have any contact with the management company. Love having all of the childproof gates on the porches and around the pool. This is especially helpful for containing my rambunctious 4 year old (we have a pool at home as well so we are always conscious of his whereabouts when outside, but the gates with locks that he can't open are a nice added peace of mind).
We will definitely be back to Erica's Sandpiper in the future! Due to some family health issues that have recently arisen, we are not able to pin down vacation dates/plans for next summer yet, but even if not next year, we will for sure be back!

Perfect for us in every way. And Rick and Susan were wonderful communicators! Always responding. We have stayed here before, and the new decks and interior updates are fantastic!!!

What a wonderful time we had! It was such a great experience and everything was wonderful. Last September we celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary and of course we had a great party but felt we had to celebrate a little more! With a lot of planning we were able to come with a date that everyone could come. Your house was perfect for us! Enough beds and bathrooms to go around.

Great trip! The management company was awesome. They replaced the hinges on the back door and serviced one of the air units. Overall a fantastic trip. We accidentally left some clothes and they ran them down and sent them too! Thanks again for another great vacation!

It was our 1st time renting a house on the beach and we are hooked.
The house was set up perfectly for entertaining etc...
You mentioned the Blue Angels, wow what a show. It felt like they were putting on a show just for west beach. Super cool!
Really nothing negative maintenance wise or for that matter anything about your house. My entire family really enjoyed it!

Lots of space for all of us. All on one level, which was very nice. TWO living rooms, oh, and TWO refrigerators. Great location, with a wide open beach area. We had the best stay. Thank you!
5.0 / 5.0
Perfect location! From the moment we stepped on the property it was great! The location was perfect to spend time at the beach or go to the city and enjoy the sites. When things didn't work right, the management company came right away to address the issue. They were very cooperative and showed my friends and I lots of hospitality! I will definitely be renting here again!

Right on the beach. Beach sand is soft and white. All bedrooms have their own bathrooms and are quiet. Kitchen is well supplied with 2 refrigerators. Pool under house with lots of loungers. Perfect for our group of 17. Even had a high chair. Clean. Great communication with management company and owners. Would consider it again if we had a large group.

We had a great time and really enjoyed the house. We had an issue with 1 toilet (broken flusher) and it was quickly fixed. We had some brown water 1 day and the maintenance guy came quickly and told us it was due to something with the city pipes; it was only for a short time. We saw the pool guys a few times and they were always friendly. We enjoyed the cheese cake - thank you!

We had a great time! This was our first time renting a beach house as we normally rent multiple condos instead. We really enjoyed your property at Erica's Sandpiper! I've communicated some with Kaiser and they were great! We accidentally left a few items behind, first time doing that, and Ashley dropped off those items to UPS today to ship back to me. I was pleasantly surprised by this! All in all, we had a great overall experience!

We rented Erica's Sandpiper and The Egret for a week for a family vacation and wedding. They were both fantastic houses and surpassed our expectations! Everything was nice and clean, the views of the Gulf from the upper decks were breathtaking, and we even had wonderful views of dolphins from the upper decks at both houses! We would definitely stay at either of these houses again or even a different Bama Beach House. The owners were very easy to work with. The property management company was attentive. There was one issue getting the Gulf side door to open on Erica's Sandpiper. We reported it and someone came out right away to repair it.

You have a beautiful beach home! It was perfect for our family - we had a wonderful time. The Little's loved the pool - that was a nice treat! We tried to leave it as we found it.... The kitchen was nicely stocked. Two coffee makers was nice. This was our first family trip to Gulf Shores we hope to return again - we usually go to Mexico Beach but as you know most of the houses were destroyed in the storm. Your house is in a perfect area with not much traffic, very nice! Thank you for the use of your home.
