About this property

Luxury 6BR Coastal Retreat w/ Pool, Spa, Game Room at Kiva Dunes

Magnolia Mooring, Anchor Down by the Dunes is a brand-new luxury coastal retreat in Kiva Dunes featuring six beautiful bedrooms, a private pool and spa, a game room, and spacious porches shared between the fully appointed main house and the cozy guest house, Anchor Down By the Dunes. Located just steps from the Gulf and designed with warm coastal-botanical interiors, this estate is the perfect retreat for families, friend groups of all ages, golf getaways, and special celebrations — including girls’ and women’s trips, men’s weekends, bachelor/bachelorette gatherings, wedding groups, writing retreats, and wellness weekends — all with a focus on comfort, style, and relaxation. Teen and young-adult groups are welcome with responsible adult supervision.

Both the main house kitchen and the guest house kitchenette are outfitted with Café appliances and elegant Kohler fixtures, including Studio McGee design elements in the main kitchen, wet bars, and coffee bar. The guest house provides a well-equipped kitchenette with a full refrigerator and ice/water dispenser, dual convection microwave oven, 2-drawer dishwasher, and a portable 2-burner induction cooktop with countertop vent—ensuring both groups can enjoy easy meal prep and dining together during their stay.

Guests enjoy full access to Kiva Dunes resort amenities**, including the complimentary on-property shuttle, both the East and West beach access points, three community pools, and the tennis and pickleball courts. The estate is conveniently located just steps from the Osprey Pool and the adjacent tennis and pickleball courts, giving guests easy access to additional recreation and relaxation. **Please note that the private Kiva Beach Club is reserved for owners and guests booked directly through the Kiva Dunes rental program and is NOT available to our guests; all other standard resort amenities listed above are fully available to our guests.

Location & Getting Around:
A car is recommended for grocery trips, restaurants, and exploring Gulf Shores. Within Kiva Dunes, guests can use the free neighborhood shuttle (a large open-air golf cart) to reach the beach access, golf clubhouse, on-site restaurant, pro shop, tennis and pickleball courts, community pools, and the entrance to the golf course. The resort is very walkable inside the community, but most guests prefer having a vehicle for off-property needs.

This listing includes both the main house and guest house, rented together as one private estate.

Pool heating is available for an additional daily fee. The spa (hot tub) is included.

About the host

Host profile image
We’re a family who loves the Gulf Coast and created Magnolia Mooring as a welcoming, comfortable retreat for guests to enjoy. We value quality, cleanliness, and thoughtful details, and we’re always here to help make your stay wonderful.

Why they chose this property

Magnolia Mooring and Anchor Down by the Dunes together offer a distinctive coastal experience rarely found along the Gulf—two thoughtfully designed homes set within one cohesive property, providing both the scale of a larger estate and the comfort of separate living spaces.

Designed with intention and shaped by years of coastal travel, the property was created to accommodate larger groups in a way that feels elevated, effortless, and refined. Rather than a single oversized home, the dual-residence layout allows guests to gather easily while still enjoying privacy and flexibility.

The main house serves as the central gathering space, with expansive interiors, multiple porches, and private bedroom suites, while the guest house adds a second living area, an additional kitchen, and a dedicated game room. Together, the homes create a natural rhythm—spaces for entertaining, quiet retreat, and easy movement throughout the day.

Outdoor living is central to the experience. The pool, spa, fire bowl, and surrounding patio create a private, resort-style setting, complemented by porches designed for dining, lounging, and conversation.

Thoughtful details throughout both homes—beverage stations, ice makers, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow—enhance comfort in subtle but meaningful ways.

Located within Kiva Dunes in the Fort Morgan area of Gulf Shores, the property offers a quieter coastal setting with access to the beach, golf, tennis, and nearby amenities.

Together, Magnolia Mooring and Anchor Down by the Dunes provide a rare combination of space, design, and flexibility—ideal for multi-generational families and group gatherings.

What makes this property unique

What sets Magnolia Mooring and Anchor Down by the Dunes apart is the rare combination of two separate homes within one cohesive property—offering the space of a larger estate with the comfort and flexibility of distinct living areas.

This dual-home layout is ideal for larger groups, allowing guests to gather easily while still enjoying privacy. With two kitchens, multiple living areas, and a dedicated game room, the property creates a natural balance between shared experiences and personal retreat.

The indoor-outdoor flow is a standout feature. Multiple porches, direct access from the upper level to the pool area, and a private pool and spa create a setting where guests can move seamlessly between spaces throughout the day.

Thoughtful conveniences enhance the experience, including beverage stations, a wet bar with ice maker, and poolside features designed for comfort and ease. Every element has been considered to support a relaxed, enjoyable stay.

Located within Kiva Dunes in the Fort Morgan area, the property also benefits from close proximity to pickleball and tennis courts, golf, and easy beach access—offering both a quiet setting and access to coastal activities.

The result is a property that feels both spacious and intentional—well-suited for multi-generational families, group gatherings, and those seeking a more refined Gulf Coast experience.
