About this property

Our Happy Place

Sat to Sat only Memorial day thru Labor Day 2026. The owners (Kerry & DeAnn, Steve & Paula) of unit 302 on the 3rd. floor in the Seacrest condominium at 1117 W.Beach Blvd. would like to welcome you to OUR favorite vacation destination. We want you to walk in the door and say Ahhh. You deserve to relax in comfort and feel like your vacation condo is truly your home away from home.
Our families have been vacationing at Seacrest for 15 years and enjoyed it so much we purchased our own unit. This is our personal vacation home and we would like to share it with you. We take great care and furnish it with high quality linens, furniture and supplies. The condo has just been freshly painted and re-decorated. we have replaced the old couch and recliner with a new couch and recliner. The bathroom is updated with new fixtures, lighting and comfort height toilet. Our Queen bed has a high-end mattress with pillow top and memory foam . (The memory foam may be removed for a firmer option ) Enjoy your morning coffee from the Keurig or Mr. Coffee on the patio in the bar height table and chairs. Enjoy the dolphins early and late.Gorgeous sunsets await your evening and then walk the beach searching for sand crabs. We provide the flashlights.
We provide a 50" SmartTV in the living room and 32" in the bedroom. We provide a washer/dryer in the closet by the bunks. Seacrest has overflow parking across the street if needed. The facility has a beautiful pool and hot tub with pool side restrooms. We have a boardwalk to the beach with a shower. Luggage carts are available in the lobby near the elevators. Our unit is across from the emergency exit and only two floors up.
We hope you consider our favorite vacation location when you are choosing your next vacation. We are located just 1.5 miles down the beautiful west beach-so close to attractions and dining, yet on the quieter side of the island. We are on a two lane beach road with walking lanes for jogging and biking. The Beach House restaurant, Waves grocery, S&S seafood and an ice-cream shop are only a block away.
Look no further.. you have found your next vacation home on the sandy white beaches of Gulf Shores Alabama.

Very nice place to stay with my small family. The actual condo itself is nice as well. The only issue I had was there’s not a ton of parking but the owners can’t help that. Will definitely stay again!

The condo was just as expected or better. We had a family emergency and had to leave sooner than planned and hope that we get to return and make it up at this location at some point. The owner was very fair and understanding with us.

My husband and I had an awesome time. The condo was clean and the ocean view was great. We loved sitting on the balcony and having our coffee. We didn’t use the pool since it was a holiday week and it was pretty full with kids having a blast. Of course we did the eating out and shopping thing and played golf at the Perdido Golf Club one day. Oh and we did beach it a couple times.

Why they chose this property

We learned of this property from friends and family who also own in this facility.

What makes this property unique

Quiet end of the beach, but still within walking distance of the downtown area. Our small size and location provide ample beach area to spread out. Easy walk to Bahama Bob's for the best Bushwackers in town.
