About this property

Beach Axis. Fab beachfront 10BR/BA duplex. Sleeps 36. Pool! Location!

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. Figured everyone needs a holiday week break! Happy 4th! Figured everyone needs a holiday week break! Happy 4th!

Two sides = 1 big 10BR house and your own private pool. So... listing it as both sides TOGETHER! Note, there is a connecting door between the two sides of the deck to be able to access each side without going out the main door, downstairs, and back up.

Reviews? Yep! You can see lots of great reviews for the two sides separately since it rents that way most of the time in the past:

Beach Axis, West https://vrbo.com/1777390 - EXCELLENT!
Beach Axis, East https://vrbo.com/1678783 - EXCELLENT!

VIRTUAL TOUR of east side available on our Beach Axis East listing. West coming soon! https://www.vrbo.com/1678783

Beach Axis, East & West: Perfect location. Close to everything, especially the beach! Right across from Waves Grocery. Location. Location. Location! This listing is for BOTH sides of the duplex together.

Taking both sides, you have your own private pool and 10 bedrooms for you and all your friends. And that view! The deck is awesome, and way out in front of most of the neighbors. Like being on the beach solo!

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.

One side perfect for your group, then book my Beach Axis East and Beach Axis West listings for the individual units. Take one or both, you'll have a great stay either way! For both sides, inquire as I do not (yet) have a combined listing up! Connecting door on the deck.

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!

Note, up to 2 dogs may be allowed when booking boths sides together and with prior owner approval. This is not possible with one side.

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!

Wonderful
We had a wonderful trip. The home was perfect for us and we had lots of space to spread out. It was nice to have all the rooms but to also be a little separated too. We loved the pool being on the road side so we felt alone right on the beach when out back. Having the grocery and stores across the street was very convenient too!

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!
