About this property
Castle in the Sand East, Orange Beach AL - 9BR/9.5BA Pool
Castle in the Sand East is managed by “Alabama Gulf Coast Vacation Rentals LLC,” a boutique vacation rental company that specializes in gulf front (4-24 bedroom) luxury gulf front vacation rentals along Alabama’s Gulf Coast.
Castle in the Sand East is a gulf front home located in Orange Beach, AL. This home features a private pool on the south deck overlooking the gulf, gas & charcoal grill, and over 5000 sqft H&C and another 2000+ sqft of covered porches and decks.
"Castle in the Sand East" is located at 29182 Perdido Beach Blvd in Orange Beach, AL.
(PLEASE NOTE WE WILL NEVER ASK FOR PAYMENT BY WIRE TRANSFER.)
"Castle in the Sand East" is a stunning gulf front development that's located in one of the best locations along Alabama's Gulf Coast, in Orange Beach, AL. This newer property features an East and West unit, and when both sides are rented, is one of the largest properties along Alabama’s Gulf Coast. Each side will accommodate 14-26 guests and is located in one of the best locations along the entire Gulf Coast. This home sits approximately half a mile west of the Florida/Alabama state line and one mile to the east of the Perdido Pass Bridge in the heart of Orange Beach.
Gulf-front splendor awaits at our unforgettable beach house in the heart of Orange Beach, featuring a pristine private pool and 9 opulent bedrooms. Rent only the east part of the property (this listing) and sleep up to 26 guests, or rent the nearly identical other half—Castle in the Sand West—to double your sleeping space. PLEASE note, there are louvered privacy walls between all balconies and a 9 ft privacy wall between the pool decks. You will have total privacy between the units. The dune walk to the beach is the only thing shared between the two properties.
Put together, the two wings create one of the largest beachfront properties on Alabama’s Gulf Coast! All located just half a mile from the Florida/Alabama state line and one mile from the Perdido Pass Bridge, in the beating heart of Orange Beach.
Beachfront is the best way to enjoy Orange Beach, and this home provides a prime spot directly on the Gulf, accessed via your own private boardwalk over the dunes. Sip your morning coffee before a stunning, panoramic view of the rolling Gulf. Lazy beach days lead seamlessly to dinner and drinks in the golden sunlight of evening. To the north, views of the Ole River add another perspective of Orange Beach’s abundant coastal beauty and diverse ecosystems.
With 5,000 sq. ft. of interior space and an additional 2,000 feet of private, covered decks and balconies just for this half of the property, our home will truly be your castle. Each half of the property is tucked away from the other, with privacy walls for all of the outdoor spaces. Note, also that your pool is NOT shared with West—each half of the property has its own private pool oasis.
