Our Happy Place

Sat to Sat only Memorial day thru Labor Day2025. The owners (Kerry & DeAnn, Steve & Paula) of unit 302 on the 3rd. floor in the Seacrest condominium at 1117 W.Beach Blvd. would like to welcome you to OUR favorite vacation destination. We want you to walk in the door and say Ahhh. You deserve to relax in comfort and feel like your vacation condo is truly your home away from home.
Our families have been vacationing at Seacrest for 15 years and enjoyed it so much we purchased our own unit. This is our personal vacation home and we would like to share it with you. We take great care and furnish it with high quality linens, furniture and supplies. The condo has just been freshly painted and re-decorated. we have replaced the old couch and recliner with a new couch and recliner. The bathroom is updated with new fixtures, lighting and comfort height toilet. Our Queen bed has a high-end mattress with pillow top and memory foam . (The memory foam may be removed for a firmer option ) Enjoy your morning coffee from the Keurig or Mr. Coffee on the patio in the bar height table and chairs. Enjoy the dolphins early and late.Gorgeous sunsets await your evening and then walk the beach searching for sand crabs. We provide the flashlights.
We provide a 50" SmartTV in the living room and 32" in the bedroom. We provide a washer/dryer in the closet by the bunks. Seacrest has overflow parking across the street if needed. The facility has a beautiful pool and hot tub with pool side restrooms. We have a boardwalk to the beach with a shower. Luggage carts are available in the lobby near the elevators. Our unit is across from the emergency exit and only two floors up.
We hope you consider our favorite vacation location when you are choosing your next vacation. We are located just 1.5 miles down the beautiful west beach-so close to attractions and dining, yet on the quieter side of the island. We are on a two lane beach road with walking lanes for jogging and biking. The Beach House restaurant, Waves grocery, S&S seafood and an ice-cream shop are only a block away.
Look no further.. you have found your next vacation home on the sandy white beaches of Gulf Shores Alabama.

Beautiful views and convenient

Our family stayed at this condo in May and loved the location right on the beach! We had a few questions prior to our stay and the host was quick and helpful in his communication. The condo was clean and the space worked well for what we needed - our two children loved sleeping in the built in bunk beds! Well stocked kitchen and balcony view of the beach is fantastic. We look forward to staying here again!

Perfect beach getaway!

We couldn’t have been happier with our stay in Gulf Shores at this condo. Everything was perfect; location, space, amenities. You can’t beat the ocean view and watching the dolphins mid day from our balcony! We would definitely rent again. Thank you!

Golf Shore Vacation 2025

First time visit to the Gulf. Construction at the resort but necessary for upgrades- didn’t impact our stay as we were out sightseeing most of time. Condo clean and had all amenities we required. Right on the beach. Very enjoyable.

We are all neighbors and classmates practicing for retirement.

Why they chose this property

We learned of this property from friends and family who also own in this facility.

What makes this property unique

Quiet end of the beach, but still within walking distance of the downtown area. Our small size and location provide ample beach area to spread out. Easy walk to Bahama Bob's for the best Bushwackers in town.
