Pool Time

Guests have access to the South Winds community outdoor pool—an easy option when you want a break from the sand or a quick swim before heading out for the evening.

Gulf Place Public Beach

One of the biggest advantages of staying at South Winds is having Gulf Place Public Beach directly across the street.

Spend the day swimming, relaxing on the sugar-white sand or watching beach volleyball, then walk back to the condo without having to load everyone into the car or search for beach parking.

Beach towels, chairs, umbrellas and other beach gear are not provided, so remember to bring your favorites.

In the Heart of Gulf Shores

This is a great home base for guests who want to experience more than just the beach.

The Hangout, Pink Pony Pub, restaurants, ice cream, shopping and entertainment are all nearby, making it easy to head out for dinner or enjoy an evening downtown without moving the car.

South Winds is also conveniently located for festivals, beach volleyball tournaments and other events centered around Gulf Place.
