Modern Family Vacation Getaway - Beachfront Direct Ocean View - 1BR/1B w. Bunks
Come to my beachfront condo and enjoy the sounds and exquisite views of the ocean and experience the renovated (Spring 2026) kitchen, dining, and living areas! While staying in my modern 8th floor (nine story building) cozy condo with a modern nautical touch, sit back and relax in the loungers on the beachfront balcony with a direct and unobstructed ocean view, enjoy a quiet breakfast while watching the pelicans stroll along the beach or the dolphins play, or watch the beautiful sunrise and sunset.
I provide a comfortable, modern getaway perfect for a couple or a family of 2 adults and 2-3 kids. Kids will love their privacy on the two bunks that can be closed off from the living area by the pocket door. The living area is spacious with couch, chair, bar stools, ceiling fan, and dining table with chairs. The living area opens to the balcony providing your family a direct view of the beach fifty yards away.
My unit has laminated tile throughout, with ceramic on the oceanfront balcony. The modern kitchen with granite countertops is fully equipped with appliances, utensils, linens, ice maker, garbage disposal, and dishwasher. The pantry with shelves is conveniently located in the kitchen for storing your groceries and the additional shelved cupboard provides extra storage for cooking essentials.
The washer and dryer are located in the condo and a portable drying rack is provided when you have small items to dry on the balcony. While staying with me, you will enjoy all the comforts of home, including free password protected WiFi for your surfing or streaming on those lazy days or relaxing evenings.
After a day at the beach, enjoy the tropical landscaping around the pool as you relax at the gazebo under the ceiling fan. A fresh-water shower is provided for your convenience before entering the pool or returning to my condo. Bathrooms are conveniently located in the pool area.
Seacrest has a beautiful lobby with a covered entrance and on-site security guard. You will find carts just off the lobby to use when you arrive and depart and two efficient and reliable elevators. Restaurants, shopping, and amusement parks are within a short distance.
I am committed to maintaining a family atmosphere for your relaxing enjoyment while you stay in my NO SMOKING, NO PETS condominium located directly on the beach of the Gulf of Mexico.

About the host
Hosted by Mark Halpin
I got into hosting in Gulf Shores when my children were young and I've been doing it now for many years. I live in Alabama and come down regularly to keep things up and to enjoy the area myself!
Why they chose this property
I like a well-maintained building that isn't too big and has all the amenities, strong support from property management, and easy access directly to the not-very-crowded beach. Seacrest checks all the boxes!
What makes this property unique
Seacrest is big enough but not too big. Close enough to shops & restaurants, but not too close (no noise, for example). Beach access is easy and there's always plenty of room on the sand to call your own!
