Dolphin West - Magnificent Beachfront Home-a Vacation to Remember!

Step out into a world of uncrowded beaches and white sand! Sit on the screened porch or deck and enjoy the sounds of the gulf or watch for dolphins from the second story deck.

This beautiful house is 2,850 sq ft and has been newly renovated!

Updated kitchen with stainless appliances, granite countertops and plent of cabinet space.. Our home also has a full bar with large capacity ice maker!
Huge great room with 10 foot ceilings, oversized windows and French doors that look directly to the Gulf of Mexico. Two Large master bedrooms share a private balcony overlooking the magnificent Gulf each with its own bath, one with freestanding tub, huge walk-in closet and sitting area.

Additional bedrooms include a king bed, full bed/single bed, downstairs bedroom with 2 full beds and private bath. Home has 4.5 baths.

The great room is perfect for entertaining friends and family. The open design includes a separate bar with its own sink and ice machine. The large windows bring the beach inside with the calming sound of waves, stunning views, and colorful sunsets. Leave the great room and enjoy the spacious deck with screened in porch and laid-back rocking chairs.

Dolphin West is located in the peaceful Bay to Breakers community which is surrounded by single family homes and small subdivisions. This beach side community lies about 1 mile west of historic Fort Morgan. This is an area where residential beach homes far outnumber high rise developments and much of the surroundings remain wild and untouched by man. The distance from the ever popular Gulf Shores hot spots, is what makes Fort Morgan appealing to many of its fans. Others come for the golf or the fishing.

Golf is a huge draw to the area, with over 45 of the potential 200 holes of Gulf Shores area golf being located in the Fort Morgan area between The Peninsula and Kiva Dunes. Kiva Dunes has been recognized as being among the Top 75 courses by Golf Digest and rated the #1 course in Alabama. Bay to Breakers is about a mile from the Gulf Shores Yacht Club, thus chartered inshore and offshore trips are available. You can also launch your own personal watercraft and just spend the day cruising the waters!

Bay to Breakers offers all the traditional property amenities, with some unique additions as well. Our community has also recently installed two new pools which can be a welcome oasis from a day in the salt and sun. The subdivision also offers a private fishing pier over Mobile Bay, where residents can fish and crab.

This is really the perfect spot for you, your family, and friends. Have the vacation that you will always remember, in one of the most beautiful homes, in one of the most beautiful destinations.

2,850 sq ft, 4.5 baths, 3 King Beds, 3 full beds, 1single, sleeps 12-15.

Linens provided, over-sized adirondack chairs, phone, air conditioning, cable tv, six flat screen tv's, 50-inch big screen tv, wifi, large washer/dryer, covered parking, charcoal grill, beach books, wet bar w/ icemaker, full size well appointed kitchen, stainless steel appliances...and so much more.

Pictures don't do it justice!

We loved the location & the house. Cleaning crew could do a much better job, windows were all so dirty we could not see the beautiful view. We cleaned them & all was good! Lots of beautiful renovations & updates since website pictures were taken. Still some things needed to be finished & a thorough cleaning under beds, etc. (Drywall chunks, faucet parts, etc.) The pool was great for our family. Would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our time in Gulf Shores very much. The location and size of the house was perfect for our group. This was actually our second stay here since we enjoyed the location so much last year. Unfortunately this trip we did encounter several issues. -The satellite was not functional on any televisions- the owner was able to navigate and have services by midweek-should now be resolved.-The internet was essentially non-existent. Listing says 500mbps but we were getting about 5mbps on speed testing. You definitely could not work from this location if this is typical (which the host says it is). 5mbps only supports about one device and with a house for 15 it’s essentially zero internet service. - The ice machine in the fridge and the seperate ice machine were both non-functional which was really disappointing. Our first stay last year we really enjoyed having the ice machine for coolers/trips to the beach. -In general the maintenance and upkeep of this home was just not great. There are only a few chairs on the porch which are plastic and flimsy ( not the ones in the photos). Kitchen was stocked but along the way I’m assuming glasses etc have disappeared because we only had 5 total coffee mugs, 9 water glasses, and 1 wine glass. Some of the furniture in the bedrooms was falling apart such as the dresser drawers and chair in the master suite and we had issues with the AC leaking inside due to maintenance issues.Again location was great but could use some TLC

This place fit exactly what we wanted for our family beach vacation. We brought 4 families and 5 grandchildren ages 1 1/2 to 11. The beach was a close walk. We did not feel crowded with other families on their beach vacation. There are tents to rent or you can bring your own. The bonus was the ice cream truck every afternoon! We had the best time!

There were positives and negatives about this home. The home location is wonderful and very close to beach (this was probably the biggest plus for our group). Also, community pool was well kept and also close to home for a nice cool down after a long day at the beach. Unfortunately, there were several things that could have been better. Ice machine doesn’t work so you will need to purchase your own ice (kitchen ice machine worked but made very very limited amounts). If they don’t plan to fix this, it needs to be removed from listing since this was a big plus for us when booking. It would have been nice to send someone out to fix ice machine to enjoy for the second half of our trip but property manager ignored our comment about this. Also check under beds, we found a set rat trap (NOT a mouse trap) with cheese under one of the beds (notified property manager and she didn’t care-no response or apology). Home sleeps 15 people but there are only 4 chairs on back porch. That didn’t make sense to anyone in our group. Would have been nice to have more in our group be able to watch the sunset comfortably together. Internet was also very slow.

Breakers Lane

The home was lovely--could have used a deep cleaning because there were crumbs in the floor and the fold out sofa had candy and wrappers inside. Access to the beach was great. It is a 30 minute drive to the strip in Gulf Shores so if you need any supplies purchase them on the way in, the little stores that are close do not have much selection.

We loved our stay at this beautiful home. We had our whole family there and there was plenty of room for all of us. It is very close to the beach which was good for us. The huge kitchen, dinning, and living room area was a favorite for our family! We hope to go back and stay there again! Our Host Lisa was Amazing. Would definitely recommend this beautiful spacious house.

Great location for Family Vacation

We had a wonderful stay at this property! The location was amazing with a beautiful view of the beach, and a short walk down the pier. The size of the property allowed us plenty of room to spread out. We had an issue with the washer when we arrived and the owner sent somebody over immediately, and was super responsive! We will definitely be planning to come back next year.

Location was very nice and close to the beach.

We really enjoyed the space for everyone. Our only complaint is that since it is so far from shopping, it would have been nice to know that nothing is provided except hotel shampoo and small bar of soap. We had to purchase even salt ,pepper, toilet paper, ALL dish soap, basically all amenities. This was not a problem, but would have been nice to know before we arrived! Most places provide condiments and TP. We also changed the FILTHY air filter (we were all having running noses and sore throats) and the ice maker in the wet bar wasn't working. The manager did send someone very quickly who found the filter clogged and removed it. We think the housekeeper needs to pay us for doing their job. There was also candy wrappers on the floor in one of the bedrooms. We did enjoy the chairs and beach toys provided and the swimming pools were really nice. Great location, just make sure you bring almost everything you need for your time there.

Lovely Place

The house was wonderful for our family. The beach was just a short walk down the board walk. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and balcony to see an occasional dolphin and to see all the stars in the dark night sky. We walked the pier on the bay side and took beautiful sunset pictures and saw a dolphin and an alligator. The kitchen was stocked with pots and pans, dishes, silverware, all kinds of cooking utensils, toaster, coffee maker, large bowls, a few plastic containers for leftovers, and an empty pantry for food storage. Don’t forget to bring dish and dishwasher soap, laundry detergent, paper towels, toilet paper, and paper and plastic wear if you choose to use. We found ourselves sitting, visiting, and playing games at the big dining table often. The provided high chair and pack and play was most helpful. The huge sectional sat lots of people and comfortable enough for naps. The ice maker was needed to keep up with our need for ice in our drinks. Note, to enter the house you walk up a flight of stairs to get to the main living room, kitchen, and one bedroom area. The other 4 bedrooms, bathrooms, and laundry are up another flight of stairs. We really enjoyed the two pools which had great shallow places for the kids to play. In an outside closet, there were several boogie boards, chairs, and a volleyball net. We contacted the owner through the VRBO app and she was very prompt in responding to us. We would definitely stay again.

Nice size

This house is bigger than the pictures show. The openness of the living area, dining room and kitchen was ideal for our family of 8 adults and 3 little ones. Our kids and spouses love to cook together and the kitchen was perfect for 6 adults all working together. The closeness of the beach was also very nice.

Host profile image
We have owned and operated this beautiful rental property for the past 13 years. We absolutely love Fort Morgan and the quiet beauty it has to offer. Our kids have spent their childhoods coming here and enjoying everything this beautiful area has to offer. We have so many memories as a family in this home. We hope you enjoy it as much as we have over the years!

Why they chose this property

This is a quiet and small neighborhood. It lends itself to quiet and relaxed enjoyment on the beach or strolling up to the Fort!

What makes this property unique

Our home sits directly on the gulf with wonderful views from the entire beach side! Wake up and have coffee and watch the dolphins, or eat lunch on the porch and listen to the waves. There aren't many places in the world that are as quiet and close to the ocean as this home. One of a kind!
