About this property

Kiva Grand by GSVR | Spectacular Beachfront Family Retreat w/ Pool & Hot Tub + FREE Activities/Golf

Kiva Grand – Professionally Managed by Gulf Shores Vacation Rentals (GSVR)

This is a custom-designed beachfront home set on a spacious 2-acre Gulf-front lot within Kiva Dunes Golf & Beach Resort. A 2023 renovation brought exciting updates, including a brand-new kitchen, an upgraded master bath, a more accessible grandparent-friendly bath, a ninth full bathroom, and a newly added upstairs bunk room. While the breathtaking views and setting are grand, this home was designed for family gatherings, featuring a spacious kitchen, an oversized family room at pool level with a second kitchen, an elevator, and a 20' x 40' beachfront pool with a hot tub, perfect for enjoying the outdoors year-round.

The Best of Gulf and Golf! Kiva Grand is located at the acclaimed Kiva Dunes Golf Beach Resort (Guests do not have access to the Beach Club at Kiva Dunes). Seven Spacious Bedrooms, each with Private Bath and TV, plus two bunk rooms. Large open kitchen with 2 islands, room for lots of cooks and for everyone to eat in the same space. Large covered porches on all three levels of the house. And of course the fabulous sugar-white beach that lies beyond the 8,700+ of heated and cooled space!

The main floor is designed for seamless gatherings, anchored by an open-concept living area with multiple seating spaces, including a charming fireside sitting room and a family room with a 73" TV. The gourmet kitchen is fully equipped with an oversized refrigerator, two islands, two dishwashers, and a complete set of cookware and serving essentials, perfectly matched by the dining area with room for everyone to eat together. A King bedroom with a handicap-friendly private bath featuring a roll-in shower, though not fully ADA-compliant, provides accommodation on this level, alongside a charming bunkroom with nautical decor. An additional full bath and half bath round out this level.

The upper floor offers six bedrooms, including three beachfront king suites, each with private baths. The primary King suite features a newly remodeled bath with a soaking tub, large shower, and double vanity, with access to both a private and shared beachfront porch. Two additional beachfront king suites open onto a shared terrace, and one of these also includes a twin daybed and twin trundle. The remaining bedrooms include one with two queen beds, one with a single queen bed, one with two bouble beds, and a new bunkroom with two XL twin beds. A sitting area overlooking the entry hall and atrium adds a gracious touch, and a laundry room provides added convenience.

The lower floor is built for recreation and poolside living, centered around a large recreation room with a TV, comfortable seating, and a second full kitchen with a casual dining area. A full bath is conveniently located for pool access, and the larger of the two laundry rooms is also found on this level. Three covered parking spaces in the garage add everyday practicality, and French doors open to covered porches on both the east and north sides of the pool area.

Outside, Kiva Grand offers one of the most spacious pool areas, featuring a huge private beachfront pool and hot tub perfect for relaxing even in coolor weather. This is well complemented by plenty of lounge chairs and shaded seating as well as outdoor dining spaces on both the main level porch and pool level that make relaxation and al fresco meals a breeze. A charcoal grill is on hand for cookouts. A private dune walkover leads to a quiet stretch of pristine beach just steps away.

Enjoy the feeling of being away from it all, then revel in the nearby attractions with casual lunch at the Kiva Dunes Lodge or dinner, spa treatments, or a massage at The Beach Club Resort & Spa (925 Beach Club Trail). Please note as Kiva Grand features its own private beachfront pool and hot tub, we are not members of the Kiva Dunes Beach Club, which was designed for guests staying in non-beachfront homes.
