Perfect stay at Pink Palm Bungalow

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely bungalow! The home was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The location was perfect—close to the beach and tucked away just enough to feel peaceful and private. We especially appreciated the thoughtful touches throughout the house that made it feel like a home away from home. Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay in Gulf Shores!

I don’t know where to start, except by saying everything was perfect! The location being just across the street from the beach was ideal, the condo had everything possible that you could need, including all of the beach toys, and most importantly, baby gear that we did not have to bring ourselves! Scott, the owner was super receptive to last minute needs and we couldn’t have asked for anything more from a host. I can’t do this review without mentioning how beautifully decorated the townhouse was and to say thank you and hats off to our host and hostess for sharing this cute townhouse with my daughter and I. We look forward to coming back and can’t say enough about this perfect little piece of paradise.

Gulf Shores Gem!

The Pink Palm Bungalow was the perfect getaway! From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The space was beautifully decorated, immaculately clean, and stocked with everything we needed. The private dock was such a peaceful spot to unwind, and the beach was just a short stroll away. The hosts were fantastic—quick to respond and so welcoming. We’re already planning our next stay—this house is a true hidden gem!

Has everything you need and close to everything you want!

One of the best rentals I've stayed in. Fully supplied kitchen. Comfy beds. Cool air conditioning. Washer/dryer was a blessing we didn't realize we needed! Was about a 3 minute walk to the beach although across a busy street but has a designated crosswalk. The beach closet had everything we needed and more to make our experience enjoyable. We'll be back!

About the host

Hosted by Scott Chisholm

Host profile image
"Hi Everyone! Welcome to our Beach Bungalows! These are our lovely Gulf Bungalows that we are so happy to share with you and your family! I love spending time with my wife and our two dogs, Lewis and Toby! We love traveling through the USA and exploring national parks together and I'm a huge Premier League soccer fan." - Scott

ABOUT YOUR HOST:
This property is a single-family owned business, not under a large rental management company. As your host, Scott brings 12 years of hosting experience and a genuine passion for creating exceptional stays.

Scott takes immense pride in personally managing each property—they're like his children, receiving weeks or even months of dedicated attention each year for updates and improvements.

When you stay with us, you're choosing a personalized experience with a host who truly cares about you and your family's comfort and enjoyment. Why settle for the impersonal approach of a large rental management company when you can enjoy Scott's dedicated attention and local expertise? :)

Why they chose this property

We love our Pink Palm Bungalow because it offers us plenty of room to spend time with family and friends. The tranquility, the remoteness, and the surroundings make it the perfect escape from the rigors of everyday life. The view from the deck is another huge plus point for us, we love spending time on the deck, whether it's for breakfast, lunch or dinner!

What makes this property unique

There are so many things we love about our bungalow. The beautiful design and color is what made us fall in love with it. The proximity to the beach and local attractions and the water front decks are all incredible. You couldn't ask for a better location in Gulf Shores. We love the calmness and tranquility of the whole experience. It really feels like you are in a completely different world. You are able to spend time in beautiful natural surroundings, and take a break from your everyday life. We love being able to go outlet shopping one day, relax on the beach another or just hang out on the deck at night. We're animal lovers ourselves so the Pink Palm Bungalow is dog friendly.
