About this property

Ocean Front Cozy Condo Seconds from the Beach Your Adventure Awaits

Surfside Shores, unit #1504 at 969 West Beach Blvd is a 5th floor condo DIRECTLY on the white sandy beaches of the Gulf of Mexico, the living room and master bedroom open up to a large beachfront balcony overlooking the ocean and pool area. The unit and building are GREAT for families with children however our HAO does not allow pets in or on the property.
We are constantly trying to make updates to the unit so when you arrive it may not look like the pictures posted, someday it will be exactly the way we want, in the mean time it is a perfect place to stay at the beach.
It offers 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, sleeper sofa in the living room, washer/dryer in unit with wireless internet, there is a large Smart T.V. in the living room but don't forget to sign out of your apps before you leave. Dish satellite in every room and Roku in the Master.
Beautifully decorated for a calm and welcoming feel, we want our guest to feel at home.
Just under 1 mile west of Hwy 59 and within a short walking distance to local restaurants, Janinos pizza (right across the road) The Beach House Kitchen and Cocktails West of the unit on 59 (crawfish mac and cheese is to die for) Bahama Bob's and Pier 33 grocery, beach shopping at Island Outfitters just to name a few. There is always more shopping than you will have time for, a short drive to the Tanger Outlet in Foley and many more stores.
If your tired of laying on the beach there is always something to do, parasailing, banana boat rides or rent a wave runner, check out some deep sea fishing, dolphin cruises or drive back to Mobile Bay to tour the battleship.

Great location

Great location, easy access right next to the elevator. Having one of the 2 pools on property heated was great for evening swims! The condo was clean, there is however a slight mildow smell to the condo.

Great Beach Getaway

Perfect location right on the beach, close to dozens of restaurants and shops, just far enough away from everything though that noise isn't an issue. Clean and well taken care of. If you're flying and not bringing much stuff, a trip to Walmart will be needed, no beach stuff and very little provided (no coffee, 1 garbage bag, 1 roll of toilet paper per bathroom)

Beautiful stay in Gulf shores

We had a great time at this condo. The pictures were accurate and being right on the beach was perfect! The property owner was easy to reach and quick to respond. We had a small issue with a tricky sliding door during our stay and she called and walked us through how to correct within just a few minutes. Only one of the pools was heated and neither of the hot tubs were heated during our stay so the one heated pool stayed pretty busy as it was accommodating both buildings. The property owner did let us know ahead of time about the one heated pool ahead of time so we knew what we were getting. Overall, we were more than happy with our stay and look forward to future stays!

All the thoughtful touches

The property owner made this condo feel more like a home than a condo. Decorated softly without the overwhelming tacky beach theme. Little touches like soft throw blankets, extra shelves in the bathrooms, and a sweet little guestbook. Very cozy.

About the host

Hosted by Melody

Host profile image
Missouri is a great place to live and raise a family, we own a "mom and pop" floor covering and Benjamin Moore paint store, all 4 of our children have worked with us at different times through out the years.
God and family are very important to us and we believe in nurturing the seeds that you sow.

Why they chose this property

David and I have vacationed many times in Gulf Shores and I have dreamed of owning our own condo on the beach, this dream came true in December of 2018, it is an ongoing labor of love working on updating and remodeling the unit to make it as comfortable and relaxing as we possibly can, you just never know what changes there might be from one stay to the next.
We have made many memories with our 4 kids here in Gulf Shores and now they are making memories with their kids, spending time without stress, worry and work while enjoying our kids and grand babies makes this place perfect.

What makes this property unique

Watch the kids play in the pool while you relax on the balcony or sit in a lounger by the pool side. Walk the white sandy beaches and hunt for sea shells or just set and listen to the waves.
Want to cook out on the grills and play a little frisbee, there is a beautiful grassy lawn to do just that. Surfside Shore offers 2 pool areas, East and West pools with 1 being heated in the winter and early spring so you can enjoy the pool all year round.
