Southern Secret is right across the street from the Gulf, with no house between us and the ocean so you have wonderful unobstructed views. No only is the house beautiful, with great Gulf views from all three stories, you'll also have a pool oasis just for the duplex.

The pool area comes complete with palm trees and a shaded sand box for small children to play in while you relax around the pool. We have a large covered area with grills and tables so you can enjoy outdoor dining.

We are located in laid-back West Beach just 2.1 miles west of "the T" where Hwy 59 intersects with West Beach Blvd. While we are away from condos and crowds, we are still close to restaurants, shops and attractions. Come share our Southern Secret!

  • We had a group of 4 couples on an Annual Beach Trip that arrived Thursday afternoon and departed Monday morning. This was our year to plan the trip, and having stayed at Phoenix locations all the previous years, we were nervous to change our tradition. However, when we arrived, I knew my wife and I had hit the jackpot. We'll never go back to the Phoenix, and will always try to stay at Southern Secret!

  • We rented both side of Southern Secret for a family reunion in August. It was a great trip. The place had plenty of room for everyone. The house was well furnished and the kitchen well stocked. The pool was a must for the large number of people (especially the kids!) and there was easy access to the beach. The location was great because the house is beyond most of the condos and less crowded. The beaches were beautiful. Thanks to Susan and Geoff for being so accomodating. We had a great time and would love to come back again!!!!!!!

  • Our Family visits the Gulf Shore area every August for an end of summer last fling. We chose a different spot each year to learn more about the different areas of Gulf Shores, but we enjoyed southern secret so much we voted to return there again next year. Thank you for providing such a private place while still being so close to everything. Can't wait till next year. Wife has floor fettish, suggest leaving broom so sand can be sweeped hourly,lol.

  • My entire family met at the Southern Secret for a "family reunion" vacation. Some even traveled as far as Duluth,Minnesota. The facility was absolutely PERFECT for my famliy. Each individual family enjoyed having their own private level of the duplex. It was very clean and amazingly accomodating. The pool and grill area was exactly what we were looking for when planning our vacation. We cooked each night and enjoyed our meals out by the pool and picnic area. My family rented both sides of the duplex and was pleased to find out that there were plenty of lounge chairs for everyone to be at the pool at the same time. Originally, I was a little hesitate about staying accross from the beach but we had beautiful views of the beach and ocean and the walk was a breeze. We already plan on booking at the Southern Secret again next Summer. Thank you, Susan & Geoff!

  • Never having been to Gulf Shores, we were lucky enough to stumble upon Southern Secret! We were extremely pleased with the beautiful facility with its many amenities and awesome view of the beach. Much nicer than the areas by the condos, our beach space was clean and as near private as we could have hoped. We are talking already about a larger family reunion next spring and will definitely book Southern Secret again!

  • We had such a wonderful week at Southern Secret! It was the perfect way to spend our last spring break of college. We really enjoyed the pool and the beach. Also the location to the bars and restaurants was great! such a short cab ride! The bedrooms were beautiful! We really enjoyed all the outdoor patios. We couldnt have had a better week and really hope to come back. This is one of the best homes on West Beach Blvd! All our friends in other homes liked ours the best! Thanks Susan and Geoff!!
    
    Homeowner Response:
    While we consider our houses to be great for families, with the right understanding of how we expect our property to be treated, we will consider groups as well. These young women were great guests and are certainly welcome back!
