About this property

🥳 Early Bird Sale! 🥰 Beach Axis, East. 5BR Beachfront Beauty. Pool. Perfect location.

Beach Axis East
1203 West Beach Blvd

2023-07. Flash Sale: Vacation like its 2019, in Summer 2024. Dropped rates to 2019, pre-pandemic levels. First 3, then I change them back! Pricing is already factored into the Vrbo displayed prices.

2023-07-07. Brand new virtual tour. Check it out. You'll love Beach Axis!

Beach Axis' deck is as close to the gulf as you can get in the area. Folks LOVE LOVE LOVE its gulf front decks! Most nearby units have their pool behind the homes, putting the pool between you and the beach. Not Beach Axis. Beach Axis' pool is streetside. Sit on the deck, enjoy the sunset, while most neighbors are behind you! How nice is that! The pool is private to the two sides of the duplex—not shared with any other home.

Recently listed the two sides separately as well as the whole place (10BR/10BA!) as well, see VRBO listing https://vrbo.com/1879290 for both sides together!

This listing is for Beach Axis, the East side: Perfect location. Close to everything, especially the beach! Right across from Waves Grocery. Location. Location. Location!

Virtual Tour recently added. TOUR will be the latest greatest images. Waiting on new HDR photography but have been FULL all summer!

Close to everything, especially the beach! Right across from Waves Grocery, Ice Cream shop, Seafood shop, and the Beach Kitchen Bar and Grill. What more could you ask? Location. Location. Location!

Plus this is one of my guests' favorite places. Lots of repeat visitors each year! Great price for a recently completed redone beachfront duplex. RIGHT ON THE BEACH. Beach Axis is completely furnished and professionally decorated. It has a fully equipped kitchen including a dishwasher and microwave.

The Beach Axis duplex house is located directly on the beach of the Gulf. Either side of Beach Axis can be leased separately as a 5BR/5BA that sleeps 18, or take both sides for a full 10BR 10BA sleeping up to 36!

One side perfect for your group, then book our Beach Axis East and Beach Axis West listings for the individual units. Take one or both, you'll have a great stay either way!

Beach Axis, East https://vrbo.com/1678783 5BR (duplex, can be 10BR)
Beach Axis, West https://vrbo.com/1777390 5BR (duplex, can be 10BR)

Each side of the house sleeps 18:

Main Floor: (K) w/ bath & balcony access. Sleeper Sofa
2nd Floor: (K) & (T/T) w/ balcony access
2nd Floor (K) w/ bath
3rd Floor: (T/F) & (T/F) (2 triple bunks) w/ bath
3rd Floor: (K) w/ bath & balcony access

Other amenities include central air/heat, televisions, dvd players, cable, internet, telephone with free domestic long distance, washer/dryer, covered porch and sundeck area,  large outdoor pool, Gulf front balconies, and a master bath whirlpool tub.

Snowbirds welcome over winter! Inquire about monthly rates!

Since we have a higher proportion of guests recently who are new to vacation homes, I wanted to mention a few things that may be new to guests who normally stay in hotels or resorts rather than a private home so they are not surprised. 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, except where specifically noted, 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.

That’s it! We think you’ll haver a great stay in our home. Reach out and let us know how we can help!
​
No smoking please, but feel free to eat lots of shrimp (highly recommend steamed cajun from the shop across the street!), bask in the warm sun, and have a great time!

Amazing!

It was amazing! Everything was great! Your staff helped us out with a crock pot as one was not there. We are going to rebook just trying to decide if we need a six bedroom for next year or want the same place. I'll update you as soon as we decide. It was perfect weather this year!!

Wonderful Experience at Beach Axis East

My family vacationed in Gulf Shores at Beach Axis East. The home was even better than the pictures. It was just a short stroll to the beach, pool, and restaurants across the street. We would definitely stay there again.

Host profile image
Instructional designer. Behavior change researcher. Father of 3. Teacher. Soccer coach. Hoosier. I'm interested in why people do the things they do, what we can do to change those things so that folks live happier and healthier lives, and how technology can help. Plus, well, I love Gulf Shores!

My wife's family have traveled to Gulf Shores and Orange Beach Alabama for decades. I became a tag along in the late 1990s, so a Gulf Shores guy by marriage. One thing led to another and we ended up a several large, family-friendly, large group friendly, places along the Gulf. Beach Axis used to be the Summer Winds. We took ownership and completely redid this home with an updated vibe. Check out the red cabinets! Nice location. Style. Look at the deck view. You so want to be there!

Beyond the cool vibe of the interior?! How about the great location! You simply cannot do better than Beach Axis (well, you can do as well in my Sundancer, Beach Baby, and Sea Monster homes because... they are right next door!) because it is right across the street from Waves Grocery, The Beach Kitchen, ice cream and seafood! Not many places are easily walkable (I mean... across the street!) to amenities, but Beach Axis is!
