About this property
Spacious Beachfront Fort Morgan Home Sleeps 16 with Private Pool & Private Beach
Welcome to The Salty Pelican Tuex Beach House, a true Gulf-front retreat offering space, comfort, and unforgettable coastal views. Featured on HGTV’s Beach Hunters, this exceptional beachfront home is located on the peaceful Fort Morgan Peninsula, approximately 15 miles from the heart of Gulf Shores, providing the perfect balance of privacy and convenience.
From the moment you arrive, you’ll be drawn to the unobstructed views of the Gulf of Mexico, where spectacular sunrises, vibrant sunsets, and frequent dolphin sightings create a stunning natural backdrop. With private beach ownership from the house to the shoreline, guests enjoy a rare level of privacy on a wide, uncrowded stretch of natural beach.
Home Layout and Living Spaces
The Salty Pelican Tuex is filled with natural light and designed for gathering. The open-concept main level features a spacious living area with a large sectional sofa, ample seating, and a 75-inch Sony 4K LED Full Array Smart TV. Guests can enjoy YouTube TV, access personal streaming services, and stay connected with complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi.
The kitchen is thoughtfully designed for large groups and extended stays, featuring quartz countertops, generous cabinet space, two full-size refrigerators, an under-counter ice machine, and all the essentials needed to prepare and enjoy meals together. The adjacent dining area comfortably accommodates your entire group.
Step outside onto the expansive beachfront deck, where Gulf breezes and sweeping views set the tone for relaxation. From here, take your private steps directly down to the beach, perfect for shell hunting, shore fishing, evening crabbing, or simply enjoying the peaceful rhythm of the waves.

This home offers five bedrooms and three bathrooms, comfortably sleeping up to sixteen guests.
• Two beachfront bedrooms feature French doors that open directly onto the deck, offering stunning Gulf views.
• Additional guest bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations for families and groups.
• A loft-style bedroom with four twin beds offers elevated views of the beach and Gulf, making it a favorite space for younger guests.
Each bedroom is designed to provide a restful retreat after a day in the sun.
Comfort and Modern Systems
Guest comfort is a top priority at The Salty Pelican Tuex. The home is equipped with:
• Two full-size smart water heaters
• Two HVAC systems with Reme Halo UV Light air purification

These systems ensure a comfortable, clean, and climate-controlled environment year-round.

Discover the allure of Gulf Shores and Fort Morgan through our eyes. As New Orleans natives, this coastal haven offers us a quick escape from the bustling city to a peaceful retreat. What we cherish most is the uncrowded beach, providing a private sanctuary that allows us to unwind and connect with nature. Whether it's sipping morning coffee on the back deck, watching pelicans and dolphins dance, or unwinding with a glass of wine during a breathtaking sunset, each moment in this tranquil setting is pure magic. We invite you to experience the serenity and beauty that captivates us every time we return to our Gulf Shores getaway.
What makes this property unique
Welcome to The Salty Pelican Tuex, where every detail is crafted to make your stay unforgettable.
