About this property

Total Facelift! Beachfront and Dog Friendly!

Welcome to Sun Kissed West! This cozy, small dog friendly, Ft Morgan duplex beach cottage is the perfect, affordable choice for your gulf front vacation! The first thing you'll notice when you arrive is the new, expansive deck that will provide you with spectacular sunset views! Imagine yourself on one of the Polywood lounge chairs watching the sun sink below the horizon.

This adorable cottage has an open floor plan with comfortable seating area where you'll get more of that million-dollar view. You'll find counter stools for dining and a full kitchen for fixing simple meals. For those nights when you want to dine out, you can make the 15-minute scenic drive into town or try one of many tasty local options.

The master bedroom features a king bed where you can wake up to the amazing Gulf view. The second bedroom has a full bed and a twin over twin bunk. This home has one full bath and one-half bath. Guests really appreciate the convenience of having a house right on the beach. Returning for drink refills, snacks or quick nap takes just seconds.

Need more space? Consider renting Sun Kissed East, right new door!

Amazing place for a relaxing beach weekend.

Private, right on the ocean, clean, and comfortable. We laid out on the deck, watched dolphins play the the morning, enjoyed the ocean, and had a completely relaxing, wonderful weekend here that was everything we could have hoped.

A Great stay

We had an absolutely lovely time at Fort Morgan and with my 3 and 11 year olds and my 66 year old father this was the perfect spot as it was nice and cozy and right on the beach. This is actually our second stay at this location and they have even updated the property since we first stayed 2 years ago. Hope to be back again!

Very private and peaceful location. Make sure to ride the ferry over to Daphne Island! Our dog got to go and she had the time of her life! Great little hidden gem of the gulf. Property was adequately furnished. Management was very friendly and helpful.
