Our most recent guest review:
We have stayed in homes for over 20 years in Ft Morgan, Gulf Shores, Destin, Panama City, and St George. This is one of the best, ranks right up there in the #1 spot. everything in the post is 100 percent correct. All the kitchen supplies you need are already there. Extra blankets and pillows are supplied. House was super clean inside and out. A lot of the times the inside will be clean but the outside needs some care. The outside was as clean as the inside. You can actually sit on the deck and enjoy the beach, it is that close. Also close to the Sassy store and the Sassy Chophouse. This way you don't have to drive a long way to grab the small essentials like ice or mustard. I would highly recommend this house and we will stay again.

Gulf Gaze Beach House, one of the best kept secrets, awaits you for an unique amazing beach adventure. Located in the private community of Cabana Beach Estates one of the first Gulf beach subdivisions driving out Fort Morgan peninsula. The house is only 20 yards from the sugar white sandy beach – out in front of most of our neighbors. Sit in the shade of our large covered deck and have an awe-inspiring, unobstructed 180⁰ view of the beach and Gulf where you can watch the dolphins play and the pelicans dive for dinner. Or you can enjoy the private relaxed quiet family beach in front of the house. You cannot appreciate Gulf Gaze Beach House until you are there!

Gulf Gaze is a family beach house sleeping a maximum of EIGHT (8) people including children of all ages. The house is rented on a weekly basis from Saturday to Saturday. We make every effort to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. You will find the house ideally suited for a relaxing vacation. A large percentage of the guests return annually. SORRY HIGH SCHOOL/COLLEGE GROUPS, CHURCH GROUPS, WEDDINGS PARTIES, AND LARGE FAMILY GATHERINGS RENTING MULTIPLE HOUSES CANNOT BE ACCOMMODATED!

The house is directly on the Gulf of Mexico beach in the small private community of Cabana Beach. Cabana Beach is one of the first beach side communities you come to in Fort Morgan. During walks on the beach, you will enjoy miles on pristine beach and dunes on each side of the house.

The house has four bedrooms and two baths. It is laid out with two bedrooms and a bath on each side of a great room. Entire front of the great room is glass providing an awesome panoramic view of the Gulf and beach. Front bedrooms have sliding glass doors opening onto the deck.

Recently, we installed the latest RGF HALO-LED Whole Home Air Purification System to help protect the health of our guests. The system "proactively treats every cubic inch of air-conditioned space, thereby reducing airborne and surface microbials, bacteria, viruses, mold, smoke, and VOC’s."

Guests Book Comments: What a beautiful view! We just loved everything about your wonderful home. The beach was beautiful. The kids loved chasing crabs. We can't wait to return to this charming, cozy home by the sea! We will surely miss looking out at the beautiful ocean every morning. Thanks for the wonderful memories! We will be back!

Guest Book Comments: Our first visit to Gulf Gaze, and we have truly enjoyed our vacation. We hope to return next year!

My family had one of our best vacations here at the Gulf. The house was a perfect distance from the tourist traps. Speaking of traps, Kiva Dunes was a great golf course and only a mile down the road. We spent most of our time on the beach tanning, swimming, and fishing. I caught several mullet, one catfish, two blue fish, and even hooked a manta ray! We will be back!

Guest Book Comments: We planned this trip for 5 months. It was everything we had hoped for. The house was great with the covered deck and excellent view. Low traffic on the beach was ideal. Hailey celebrated her 13th birthday on the beach! This was a very special trip - our whole family spent a relaxing week together and look forward to doing it again! On our last night, the dolphins came up and performed for us. We are not ready to go home!

Beautiful, roomy property with a great location!
We loved our stay at this beautiful property! We had plenty of space for our group (2 families of 4, total of 8). The great room was large with tons of seating, and the kitchen was well-stocked and very roomy as well. We especially enjoyed the huge deck overlooking the water - we saw dolphins off the deck almost every day of our stay. The beach area was nice, relaxing, and not crowded. We were also excited to find the beach is dark enough in this area to see part of the Milky Way! This house is conveniently located minutes from the Quick Stop, Sassy Pizza, and Dollar General. The homeowners are welcoming and great at communicating. We definitely recommend this property to future renters for a fun, relaxing stay!

Perfect Beach House
My family loved our stay in the house. The short walk to the beach, the covered deck, and beautiful gulf views are perfect for anyone’s beach vacation. Highly recommend. We all thought that the house was far better than the photos showed.
