Breathtaking Gulf & Lagoon Views from Every Window — 12th Floor

Wake up to the Gulf of Mexico stretching across a 30-foot floor-to-ceiling glass wall. Watch the sun rise over the water from your private balcony, then catch the sunset over Little Lagoon from the master suite. Guests tell us the photos don't do it justice and we think they're right!

Excellent Accommodations!

We had the best time staying at this property! The condo was very nice, extremely clean and had everything we were looking for! The views of the ocean and the lagoon did not disappoint! We were just steps away from the water! The hosts were very accommodating and were good to keep in touch to make sure we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this property!

Amazing! Will be back!!!

This place was amazing and completely exceeded our expectations! The accommodations were perfect for our family of 5! Even roomier than we needed! The balcony was a favorite and the location of this condo cannot be beat! Literally minutes from toes in the ocean, and the lagoon right behind was a special treat. Neat, clean, everything worked and ran great! Hosts are also excellent with communication!

About the host

Hosted by Gretchen Roberts

Host profile image
Our family of six lives in the mountains, but we’ve been dreaming of the “Ocean Skyline” in Gulf Shores ever since our first visit in 2016. Our goal is for every guest to experience total relaxation and to gain a fresh perspective outside of your day-to-day life. There’s something magical about the water that will do that to you! So step away from the grind, kick back, and let your worries wash out to sea. Vacation awaits!

Why they chose this property

Million-dollar views of the Gulf of Mexico, the Little Lagoon, and all of West Beach make this property unique! We fell in love the first time we walked in the door and think you will, too.
