Families | 2Min Walk to Beach | BeachGear | 2Pools- Best Location on West Beach!
You’re Googling “Gulf Shores with kids” at midnight, aren’t you?
Deep breath. I’ve got you.
You walk in, set your bags down, and the beach gear is already in the closet. The kitchen has what you need for that 6:42 AM breakfast request. The pool is right outside. The beach is a 2-minute walk across West Beach Blvd at the 6th Street intersection.
You don’t need to unpack everything to start relaxing.

LOCATION
About a 2-minute walk to beach access (we’ve timed it) Restaurants, coffee, and ice cream within walking distance Grocery and convenience stores a short drive away Quiet complex in a tourist area—guests keep mentioning how peaceful it is
If someone forgets a toy, needs the bathroom, or hits meltdown mode—you’re back inside in minutes. No loading up the car. No repacking.

WHAT GUESTS KEEP SAYING

WHAT MAKES STAYING HERE EASIER
You’re probably wondering:
Is it actually close to the beach? Yes. About a 2-minute walk. We’ve timed it.
Do I need to pack beach gear? Nope. Wagon, 4 chairs, toys and boards are already here.
What about early breakfasts and late-night snacks? Full kitchen. Go for it.
Will the host actually respond? Yes. I answer quickly—usually within an hour, often faster.
What if I forget something? You’d be surprised what’s already here. One guest found the extra toothbrush her kid needed. Starter supplies cover the basics—shampoo, dish soap, K-Cups, paper towels, garbage bags, and laundry packs. (These cover the first day or two. Grab extras for longer stays.)
I set this place up for families who want less logistics and more actual vacation.

BEDROOMS
Primary Bedroom King bed (comfortable enough for real sleep—multiple guests have mentioned this) 52” Roku TV Workspace, closet + dresser Ceiling fan
Second Bedroom Queen + Full bed (sleeps 3 comfortably) Roku TV with pool views Dresser + closet Ceiling fan
Living Room This is where everyone lands after the beach. Large sectional with pull-out sofa (extra sleeping for 1–2) 58” Roku TV Games, books & puzzles Open layout to kitchen—you can see the kids from the counter
Plenty of space to spread out without feeling crowded.

Heads up: There is one bathroom in the unit. This works well for a single family, but it’s worth knowing if you’re traveling as two couples or with older kids who value their privacy.

We absolutely loved our stay at Lani Kai! The condo had everything we needed and Alicia (our host) was so perfect to work with! The location was amazing….right across the street from the beach. Alicia provided beach chairs and a beach buggy to use….it was everything we needed. We will definitely stay there again!! Thank you Alicia!
We stayed during a baseball tournament and appreciated the easy access, the washer/dryer, and the ability to stay for our preferred time (4 days — not a whole week). Alicia was incredibly responsive when we had questions. Thank you!

Thank you so much! We so enjoyed your family as guests! Can’t wait to welcome you back again :)
Nice and clean property, as advertised! Real personal service with a person who has command of the English language. Typical southern hospitality.
A can opener would be nice. Enjoy my baked beans. LOL

This property was wonderful. I would stay here again. Alicia was great, answered questions promptly. The price was way under what we would have paid
The HOA SUCKED. Charged 200 dollars a day for a 7 lb puppy. Yes that’s 1400 dollars for the stay. Paid 700 told them if they wanted additional 700 sue me. True Karen’s
Our stay was outstanding! This condo is just precious and is exactly as listed. We had everything we needed. I loved the little coffee bar and the fact that I found an oscillating fan in the master bedroom closet. I can’t sleep without the white noise. The beds are very comfy, and I slept peacefully through the night. I would definitely rent this condo again. As an added bonus, Alicia, our host, was amazing and made sure to check in on us.

Thank you so much for your kind words! I am so glad you had an outstanding experience! We can't wait have you back again someday!!
Alicia made this a five star vacation for us. The kitchen was fully equiped, we had lots of towels and blankets and she was very quick to resolve any issues. The living room remote was not functioning and the next day they brought in a new tv and remote. Could not ask for better. We will be back.
We were very pleases with all communications with Alicia and the promptness of return phone calls, texts etc. The property and all the accommodations were great - lacking for nothing! Beautiful area with lots to do. The weather could have been better but we had family and friends in the area and we made do. All the pictures we saw on line were exactly what the property looked like. Alicia was very helpful during our stay...made us feel like family! We had a chance to actually meet cleaning staff who were also very friendly and easy to talk to. Will definetly go back!!!!!

This warms my heart to read! We can’t wait to host you again!
This was our second time staying in this unit but first with Alicia hosting. She surpassed our expectations and were truly a joy to work with. Everything we could’ve needed was taken care of and was very prompt in their replies. The condo location can’t be beat (this is our third time at Lana Kai). You’re a short walk from the beach, directly on the lagoon and right next to 6th street which allows you to beat the traffic of the main road. The condo is stocked with everything you need for the beach and has so many different kitchen appliances for you to choose from that makes cooking a breeze. We loved our time here and will be returning soon.

About the host
Hosted by Blue Palm Getaways
Hi there! I'm Alicia with Blue Palm Getaways. I live in Michigan but fell head over heels for the Alabama coast. From the moment my family first set foot in Gulf Shores, we knew this was a special place. The sugar-white sand, sparkling blue waters, and true Southern hospitality made us feel at home instantly. This “Small Town, Big Beach” quickly became our family’s happy place—and we wanted to share that feeling with others.
That’s how Blue Palm Getaways was born. More than just vacation rentals, our properties are thoughtfully designed, meticulously maintained, and stocked with all the little touches that make a stay feel effortless. As parents, we know what families need to truly relax, and we’ve poured that care into every detail—so you can focus on making unforgettable memories.
Whether you're here for a family getaway, a romantic retreat, or a beachside adventure, we’d love to welcome you. Come experience the magic of Gulf Shores with us—we can’t wait to host you!
Why they chose this property
