About this property

Private Beach Escape w/Kayak & Lagoon Access

This home does not skimp on CUTENESS. From the moment you walk through the pink door and into our thoughtfully remodeled bungalow, we want you to feel at home.

Both master bedrooms have queen beds, plus a trundle bed in the off chance you end up having a kid that just can’t bear to be without you one night.

The home also has a bunk room with four beds (see photos). This room is perfect for families with young children!

If you want to "work from home," we've got you covered there too with our high-speed internet. Or completely disconnect by having a coffee or cocktail on our covered back porch or front deck.

You'll also find a spacious living area with an open floor plan and kitchen table for four people. The open kitchen has five additional chairs situated beneath the large island for additional seating.

Sure, eating at Gulf Shores' best restaurants is fun. But sometimes we all need a nice home-cooked meal, right? That's why our kitchen is fully stocked with all the essentials you'll need to cook you and your family a nice dinner.

And then where to eat? You’ve got options… Enjoy sunset views from the covered back porch, decked out with an outdoor table and six chairs. Dine under the bungalow at a second outdoor spot set up for six people with two wooden tables and a view of the lagoon. Or you can stay inside and chow down at the kitchen table and island with seating for up to nine.

While we don't offer cable, each tv is equipped with Roku for watching all your guilty pleasures. So feel free to bring your own login and log in to any service you're subscribed to. We also provide free YouTube TV with 100+ channels to make sure you’re covered. There are also Blu-ray/DVD players in two of the rooms if you happen to bring movies with you.

There's even a second enclosed shower outside with hot water great for getting all that sand out of every nook and cranny from your day at the beach.

We also provide a pack 'n play and booster seat for anyone traveling with a kiddo.

So, what are you waiting for? Book your stay now and experience some unforgettable family vacation memories.

Beautiful property. Clean, cozy, perfect long weekend getaway.

Would absolutely stay here again. Cute, clean, roomy, and convenient to beach, town, long walks, and beautiful sunsets. Accommodations were perfect for our long weekend in Gulf Shores to attend a friends wedding. Would be great for a girls getaway or quiet week away with your love. Loved sitting in the sun on the deck in the morning and snuggling up on the deck in the evening watching the sunset. The hosts were very easy to contact and very responsive to inquiries. Thank you for sharing your little piece of paradise!

Perfect little house

Wonderful remodeled old school beach house—perfect size for the five of us and perfect location. Great hosts, very proud of their property and very responsive. Short walk to the beach and nice location right on the lagoon. Caught several nice trout while out on the kayak. Fridge/freezer downstairs in the closet was a nice convenience for loading cooler for the beach, as was the enclosed shower downstairs. Look forward to staying in the future!

Cozy, Excellent, Perfect Location

If you’re looking for a quieter section of Gulf Shores with quick access to the beach and a fun space to hangout with friends then this is a great location. There are plenty of things to keep you occupied and my group had no issue fitting 10 into this house.

Great house and location

The house is very child friendly with games and activities to keep the kids occupied. The beach across the street made it very convenient for our family. The beach itself was clean and very private. Restaurants and stores are just a short drive away.

If you want a place to rest and rejuvenate, this is the place. Didn't go to Gulf! Was happy to sit on the back deck and look at the lagoon all week. The house is clean and the beds are comfortable.

Awesome beach vacation!

What a great stay in Gulf Shores! This house was perfect for our family. On the lagoon, 60 second walk to the beach, very quiet and just a few minute drive to town. We literally had the beach to ourselves. The house was very clean, very well stocked and just an overall comfortable place to stay. The owners take pride in their home and it shows. We’ll be back for sure!

Great Family Trip!

We loved our stay at The Little Lady. We enjoyed the kayak and paddle boarding to use in the lagoon. It was a hit with my kids. The walk to the beach was very easy and the beach was beautiful. The house has everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We enjoyed sitting out back on the deck and drinking our morning coffee. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything you would need. We enjoyed our stay very much!

Private and relaxing getaway

For nature lovers such as us, our trip was sprinkled with little magical moments. We really enjoyed the lagoon at dawn and dusk. Fish strikes were abundant, and we even almost landed a few! We pretty much had the beach to ourselves, and enjoyed it thoroughly. Spot is just right for two couples. We had plenty of space and options to stretch out. The amenities were spot-on. Communication with the owner was outstanding! Very friendly and lightning-fast responses.

Cute little property with easy beach/bay access.

This property was nicely sized and had very easy access to the beach (path literally across the street) and the bay in your backyard. Nice amenities, full kitchen, etc. Great and prompt communication with property manager. My only complaint would be the mattresses -- not awful but certainly not the best night of sleep I've had. Definitely a nice little beach getaway.

Enjoyed Our Stay!

We really enjoyed our first trip to Gulf Shores. Everyone told us to be aware of the Spring Breakers, but we never had a crowded day on the beach. In fact, many days we had the beach to ourselves! The location was perfect. Slightly out of town, but not too far. The lagoon was beautiful and the ocean was extremely close, about a 1 minute walk. We enjoyed having chairs and beach toys available without the hassle of renting them. The house was nice with comfortable beds and couch. If we visit Gulf Shores again, we would stay here again.

Perfect little beach getaway!

While looking for a last-minute beach getaway for our family of 9 we came across this little gem! With lots of seating inside and out, direct access to the lagoon, and easy access to the beach, we found this to be the perfect fit for us. One thing that could have been made a little more clear is that there is only one shower inside the house. The downstairs shower was great, but is really only partially enclosed. We had a great stay and hope to return.

A special little lady

We have been visiting gulf shores/orange beach for 12+ years. Little Lady was our first experience having extremely easy access to both the beach and lagoon with both areas being very private. The property was well equipped,clean,comfortable and a 15/20 min drive to restaurants,grocery store etc. Im already sharing the link w fam and friends who have little ones or just want a quaint place to enjoy beautiful sunsets and some quiet time
