Gulf Shores, Lovely Home, Open Aug-Feb. Consider Small Pet.
- Minimum stay:N/A
- Internet:Yes
- Pets allowed:Yes
- Wheel chair accessible:No
Consider a roomy, comfortable beach house instead of a crowded condo. Not your average rental, our home is fresh and contemporary and feels like a retreat to the West Indies. Centrally located in Gulf Shores. Escape to your own private paradise as two of the bedrooms are master suites with private outside decks. Enjoy your morning coffee off the deck of the front master suite with a sunrise ocean view enhanced by the sounds and smells of the beach or soak in the jacuzzi tub before retiring for the night. The second master suite gives you the pleasure of witnessing the sunset over the blue lagoon reflecting in the distance, from it's private deck. We also have a smaller less expensive villa for rent. VRBO #217361 check it out too.
There is a cool, comfortable community pool with umbrellas and chairs just steps away. Maybe you will choose to swim in the surf, sunbathe or walk on the beach which has a boardwalk just one block from the house. Try fishing, crabbing, canoeing, or kayacking from the community pier in back of the house. A state park is just two blocks west where the fishermen gather at sunrise and fish until their coolers are full.
Few homes in the area offer the luxury and ambiance for this price. Adults can enjoy the privacy and relaxation of 2 master suites while children play or sleep in the downstairs kid friendly bedroom with their own TV & DVD. Everyone can get together to eat, play games or watch a movie in the modern granite kitchen and living area combined. Or you may choose to dine on the large outside deck off the kitchen. Lovely furnishings, wood, tile, and carpeted floors provide clean contemporary living to enhance every moment you spend indoors.
The floor plan is perfect for two families. This is our dream beach house and can be yours for your vacation week. We will consider allowing a pet.
Keywords: Classy, comfortable beach house, located central to so many beach activities. Walk directly across a two lane road to the beach.

Location was excellent. We could cross the street for beach access or go to the pool in the neighborhood. We rode bikes everyday! Even thought it rained half the time we were there the house was stocked great and was a perfect fit for our family, We had a wonderful time and got to spend some quality time together as a family. We hope to repeat our visit next year!Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with teenagers, pet owners, romantic getaway, girls getaway.

We had a grand time at your beach house. The floor plan worked welll for all. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils, but we did very little cooking. One night there was a tremendous lightening storm. We all sat on the floor in the upstairs bedrom and watched. It was beautiful. Thank you again. We hope we can go back next year.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

As former Innkeepers we are very particular and have had mixed experience with VRBO rentals...not this time. Blue Lagoon was everything we had been promised and our stay was wonderful. The home is airy, light, and was clean and neat upon arrival. Access to the beach was easy and the pool less than a block away. We really appreciated the relatively private circle drive with 20 or so well kept homes. Obviously, the owners care about their little area. This was our first visit to Gulf Shores but not our last. We liked the area much better than parts of Florida. Golf courses were good and affordable...likewise the restaurants. We were not as impressed with Orange Beach, specifically, The Wharf, which we found to be on the tacky side. The owners of Blue Lagoon are friendly, helpful, and accommodating in all respects. The home was well stocked for cooking but it was nice just to head down the beach to Bahama Bob's and other nice establishments...we liked Lulu's in spite of mixed reviews. Plan to wait for a table almost anywhere you go at prime time... Great stay...thanks!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, pet owners, families with young children, girls getaway.

We had a great time in your Beach house. The weather was perfect, the Beach house was awesome, and the owner’s were very helpful. The beaches were clean and the sand was perfect. The house was beautifully decorated, clean, and stocked with everything that you need for a perfect vacation. The photos do not show any justice to this home, it’s even better in person. The home was quiet and private. The pool is huge and great for kids and adults. You have to see this home to appreciate it. The rates are great too. We have already asked for rates for next year. We will be back for sure. I give this home and the owner’s 5 stars. Thank you for sharing your home with us.Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.
Owner response: Brandy and all, thank you so much for taking the time to write such a wonderful review. We try very hard to do our best to provide a nice place for our guests to stay. We appreciate how important it is for families to have a great vacation. Hope to have you visit our beach house again in 2012. Kind Regards, Jeanie Naumann

This home was perfect for our vacation. We decided to take a vacation and invited our two sons, their girlfriends and my Mom & Dad and their dog to go along with us. The kids wanted the beach and I wanted a pool! The location was great and the house is so spacious for that many people. My husband and I just LOVED the king size bed upstairs...it was so comfortable! The main floor bedroom with the nice big bathroom worked great for my Mom & Dad. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us...we would definitely like to come again.Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, families with teenagers, pet owners, families with young children, girls getaway.

I became a snowbird this year, staying from Nov.8 to Jan.1. This property is everything the description says it is. In fact it is elegant and spacious. It is the best property of the three I have rented over these three years. I cannot compliment the owner enough for her cooperation in making my experience entirely successful. All the amenities of the home are great. I will come and stay again next year for three months in another of this owner's property, since this one is rented on a continuing basis for the time I want. It must be fabulous to live here in the summer months also.Recommended for: Sightseeing, age 55+, families with teenagers, pet owners, families with young children, girls getaway.

I had a great conversation with the owner of this wonderful home we rented for Spring Break. She told us everything we needed to know. When we got there it was so clean and nice it made us all feel at home. It was really close to the beach just a 5 minute walk. It has great porches on all floors. Very nice neighborhood. All was so comfortable, we did not want to leave. We hope to get to stay there again next year. I would highly recommend this place if you are looking for a very nice and reasonably priced home to rent.Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with young children.

Year Purchased: 2004
About the owner: Hello from Jeanie and Marty. We have been married for 38 years, and have 2 children and 6 grandchildren. We recently were transferred to Columbus, Ohio were Marty is the director of operations, building a new Casino here.
Why the Owner Chose Homes, Blue Lagoon:
We looked at many beach areas for atleast 10 years. Our hope was to find a place where we could buy a beach house to live in someday. Gulf Shores is the place for us, it meets all of our needs. We are so happy owning a place in Gulf Shores, because it has wonderful beaches and is so family oriented and not overcrowed. The guest who rent our beach house, help us to realize our dream of living at the beach atleast part time someday.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
Our beach house, Blue Palms is a great value, lovely home, and so cental to many beach activities. There are many advantages to renting our house. We are across a two lane road from the beach, so rental is much less than beach front. The interior of our house is decorated with very nice furnishings that are modern and comfortable. You have nice views from the front deck and views of the lagoon from the back decks. Having a pool in the community is a plus. Being able to use the lagoon and fishing pier and walk to a public lagoon, fishing area are great. We are in a quiet area, yet close to the action in Gulf Shores.
