We had an amazing time and stay. The check in process was simple. House was well stocked and access to the water was ideal. Our dog also enjoyed the house and was welcomed on the beach on a leash. The openness of the beach was so nice compared to condos in Gulf Shores. You never had to go down early. There was always room and space between. Overall...cannot recommend enough. We will be back.
This was a good property that met our family's needs well and was comfortable and clean. We liked the short walk to the beach and appreciated the supply of beach equipment. Jessica was very responsive in addressing a couple of issues we had. The kitchen was well stocked, but some of the large non-stick pans were in poor shape and need to be replaced.

This was quiet possibly my favorite place I have ever stayed at while at the beach. So clean and everything was so nice. Easy communication with property manager. And she also called just to make sure everything was good on a holiday. To take time from your holiday to check in means alot. Would stay again definitely!

Thanks, Nikki. We appreciate wonderful and communicative renters like you. We hope you come back to Fort Morgan. Shore Beats Work would love to have you again!
Great stay at Dog friendly private beach house. The house is exactly as it is advertised. Our family had fun making memories at the beach. We were there while the Kemp Ridley turtles were hatching. We got to watch the baby turtles swim in to the ocean. Bring your own trash bags, extra dishwasher soap, toilet paper, paper towels and soap for the bathrooms.

About the host
Hosted by Jessica Riggio
Hello! I'm Jessica, your Everyday Escapes Property Manager and go-to contact for the 'Shore Beats Work' property. If you have any questions regarding your visit at our home, I'm your gal!
Why they chose this property
'Shore Beats Work' is the perfect beach house in an amazing location! Whether you're looking to vacation for a week or looking for a better view while working remotely, this is the spot for you. The home itself has recently been fully remodeled and is breezy and comfortable. Not to mention, every room has incredible views of the Gulf or Bay. Wondering about beach access? Check out the photos and look for the one with the star marking the public beach access. It's only 300 steps from the house. The short walk up to the beach is a piece of cake even with a pile of beach toys, little kids, and coolers. Even during the busy summer months, the beach doesn't feel crowded. On that note, let's talk about location. 'Shore Beats Work' is secluded enough from the hubbub of town to feel like an escape but also has easy access to amenities. So your trip really feels like a getaway.
Our family has been vacationing in Gulf Shores for years and my sister (owner Danielle Byrne) and brother-in-law (owner Dan Byrne) wanted a piece for our families to enjoy for years to come. We love Fort Morgan Beach and want to offer other families the opportunity to make lasting memories in a beautiful home and location.
What makes this property unique
What makes our property unique is that this isn't just a beach rental to us, this is our family getaway too! We have everything there we need to enjoy our vacation and we give access to all these amenities to our renters. We want you to feel like our home is your home!
