About the host
Hosted by Lisa Ray
I am Phyllis Campbell the owner of By The Sea. My husband and I are from North Alabama and have had a beach get away for 30 plus years. We started on the Florida Coast then inched our way to the Alabama Gulf Coast with the purchase of our first property in Alabama in the eighties.
We love the privacy and convenience of west beach and fell in love with this home which we affectionately named “By The Sea”. We used the home for many years as our family's second home, also for family reunions as well as both our daughter's weddings.
Our daughter, Lisa Ray, lives locally and manages the rentals on our beach home.

Why they chose this property
By The Sea is located right on the Gulf of Mexico with beautiful white sandy beaches. Gulf Shores is a small town with a big beach and is very family friendly. Our home is located in the west beach area conveniently located near many local restaurants and shops. Baby Equipment Rentals https://www.babyquip.com?a=537f1fb
What makes this property unique
Our home offers the ideal location for small weddings, family reunions or just a relaxing vacation. The west beach area of Gulf Shores offers a large beach with the privacy and seclusion unlike the more heavily populated areas still just minutes away from everything.
