Photos and Description of the Gulf Shores vacation condo rental
Condo, 2 King Bedrooms + Bunk room, 2 Baths, (Sleeps 6-8)

The Lighthouse sits directly on the Gulf of Mexico less then 1/2 mile down East Beach Blvd. (Hwy. 182).

Please note: We have another 3 bedroom with 3 bath unit on the 3rd floor (just doors away) at The Lighthouse and the vrbo # for it is 289529. We also own a 4th floor 3 bedroom/3 bath unit at the San Carlos condominium complex. The VRBO # on that unit is 227150.

If you enjoy lounging by the pool, prepare yourself as there are three! The first is a extremely kid-friendly zero entry pool which starts at about 2 inches in depth and gradually extends to five feet deep. The children will be thrilled to splash, play and run under the water jets. The second pool is suitable for everyone else and both are huge.

Can't you just feel yourself relaxing under the palm trees in one of the many chaise lounges surrounding both pools? Are hot tubs your favorite way to unwind? There is one located at each end of the pool along with chairs for chatting with friends. The remaining pool is a very large heated indoor pool. This pool,the fitness room and cedar sauna are on the first floor with a perfect beach view from the walls of windows.

The four high speed elevators are enclosed in individual rooms which buffer any noise to the nearby condos. Your room is conveniently located just feet away from one which accesses all of the 1st floor amenities!

Your condo has been tastefully and comfortably decorated. The master bedroom has a king size pillow top mattress. It has a 19' flat panel TV w/DVD player and a ceiling fan. There is ample storage in the walk-in closet with plenty of shelving and hangers. The master bath has a separate double vanity dressing area before you walk into the main bath area with the whirlpool tub, glassed-in shower and commode. The master bedroom and living room both have heavy drapes with blackout lining.

The guest bedroom also has a king pillow-top mattress and ample closet storage with shelving and hangers. It also has a 19' flat panel TV with DVD and a ceiling fan. The guest bath is a shower/tub combination and can be accessed through the guest bedroom and the hallway both. Both bathrooms have hairdryers for your convenience. The bunk room contains two twin beds and is cheerfully decorated.

The living room has a large flat panel TV with DVD player and a ceiling fan. The couch converts to a sleeper sofa and your have super soft linens here too. The kitchen is very well equipped with all of the major and small appliances you will need including a large coffee maker and heavy duty blender, it also has a huge separate pantry. We also have a high chair for the little ones. All of the rooms have new earthtone colored tile with the exception of the 2 main bedrooms which are carpeted.

The beautiful white sand and turquoise water is like no other. The view from your balcony is simply breath taking. It is accessible from both the living room and master bedroom and is a very spacious.You can watch the kids enjoy the pool, carry on a relaxing conversation and still hear the waves crash on the beach- the best of all worlds! The view is magnificent- enjoy the peaceful mornings watching for dolphins to jump or soak in the breezy evening sunsets.

We normally try to have only Saturday to Saturday rentals during the peak season, however, there are some partial weeks availible.

On a personal note- We have enjoyed the Gulf Shores area for several years now and it is our hands-down favorite. We picked the condo we own because we feel it represents the best of all worlds- a very child-friendly atmosphere but also well-appointed for our adult guests.

It is close to everything you want and need in the way of dining and shopping. The rooms have been outfitted to make it your home away from home and your comfort and fun is foremost in mind. Don't wait another minute and book your vacation with us today!

About The Owner

We live in Kentucky and have always really enjoyed our vacations in Gulf Shores. We decided to buy our first condo in late 2008 and due to a SEVERE ice storm in January 2009, escaped their for a few days. We ended up purchasing our other condo at an auction while we were there. I told my husband it was fate that we were there at that time and it was meant to happen ! So, this is our first year renting and we have been thrilled we the results so far. All of our clients have been great to work with and everyone comments on how they have enjoyed their stay with several mentioning they will be back again for certain. This is exactly what we had intended when we decided to begin our rental business. We want to develop loyal customers because they know what we will provide to them and how we value their business.

I ask each client if they have been to the area and if they haven't ( or it's been a few years), I try to provide them with info of the area and activities. Even though the beaches are beautiful,there is just so much to see and do in the entire gulf coast area.

Our family has been involved in a construction related business for 29 years and customer service is truly our number one priority. Clients are spending their hard earned money to relax and get away from it all for just a few days. We want to exceed their expectations on what a vacation rental home should be.

Great March 2012 Vacation

5 of 5
Submitted: March 28, 2012 Stayed: March 2012
We came here with another family (both families with young children), and the condo was perfect for us. The bunk room came in handy for the kids. There was plenty of room for the 7 of us (two couples, three kids), and the kitchen was well-stocked. Great gulf-front view and nice big balcony to enjoy. We really enjoyed the indoor and outdoor pools as well as the beach, of course. The condo was clean and well-maintained. For other activities, we thoroughly enjoyed going on a nearby dolphin cruise with Cold Mil Fleet (Orange Beach) -- they get the dolphins to jump and surf in the boats' wake! The kids also really enjoyed Lulu's restaurant (sand pile to play in!) and go-carting at The Track.

Owner's Response: We appreciate your "thumbs up" comments for our condo. The dolphins are always great to see and are definitely amazing animals !

Great Vacation

Submitted: September 17, 2011 Stayed: September 2011
We recently stayed at this Very Beautiful, Well Furnished , Perfectly located Condo, We could not ask for a better place to stay or better people to rent from. Our grand baby(2 yrs old) thought this was our new house and so did we during our stay. Parking right outside was a BIG plus,since we were there during Tropical Storm Lee. View was incredible, Kitchen well furnished, TV perfect for BAMA football.(ROLL TIDE) We highly recommend this condo to everyone, could not have had a better vacation(especially after the storm).
Thanks to Melissa for everything you did for us! can't wait till next year.
Recommended for:  Families with Young Children
Owner's Response: I hate that T.S. Lee was blowing through town but was glad to you made it in early to catch the game ! The front door parking is a tremendous help when you're packing things in and out or just for a quick trip out for something left in the car. We try to make sure you have everything you need for a comfortable stay including those unwanted rainy days.
Thanks so much Nancy and we do hope you'll call on us again !

We had a great time at The Lighthouse. You can park right outside your door. GREAT place for families. We took our grandkids and they loved the zero entry pool as well as the big pool. Everything was close. We did not want to leave! Be sure to eat at LuLu's and Lamberts. Near the outlet mall as well. We even did a day trip to see the Blue Angels do practice flgihts. We could sit on the balcony and see dolphins swiming each day. Kitchen has everything you need. Beds was so great as well. We want to come back again!

Vacation in Paradise

5 of 5
Submitted: August 4, 2010 Stayed: July 2010
We go to Gulf Shores every summer, and this is the greatest condo we've stayed in! The pictures, as accurate as they are, don't do it justice. It was beautifully decorated, immaculate, and had everything we needed.....my granddaughter brought her baby doll along and was thrilled to discover there was even a high chair, which the doll happily occupied while we were there! There were plenty of games and DVDs to entertain kids!

We loved the convenience of being able to park right outside the front door (a real "extra" in a condo), and the keyless entry feature (another "extra"), along with the wireless internet connection! The balcony was large and had comfortable, cushioned furniture. The view was fantastic, and we watched the dolphins playing one morning!

Add to all these great features the two huge outside pools and the convenient inside pool, plus a workout room, and I can't imagine what else you would want for your perfect stay on the beach! This complex is near the intersection of Hwy. 59 and Beach Blvd., convenient to The Hangout and Desoto's Restaurant, plus Surf Style and Alvin's Island.

Melissa was wonderful to work with and we had great communication. I highly, highly recommend this condo for your vacation in paradise......we are already talking about it for next summer!!
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Girls Getaway, Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children
Owner's Response: Thank you so much for your rave review of our condo !!! We really do try to go the extra mile for our guests . The Lighthouse is certainly the best place to stay in Gulf Shores because of all the ameneties you mentioned plus the close proximity to everything.
We appreciate you staying with us this season and hope to hear from you again next year !

Our March Get away

5 of 5
Submitted: March 31, 2010 Stayed: March 2010
We recently stayed a week at the Lighthouse condo, I would recommend it to anyone. As I cook a lot even on vacation I was thrilled with the way the kitchen was supplied with everything I needed in the way of appliances and pans and dishes. The furniture comfortable, bathrooms roomy and nice, Decor pleasant.
We were able to relax and just enjoy the view and the comfort of the accommodations.
we found the keyless entry very nice and handy, the front door parking makes loading and unloading fast and very convenient with no stairs to wrestle bags up or down.

Owner's Response: We really appreciate your review of our condo. The view from the balcony is great and the parking really is an added bonus.
Thanks so much for the thumbs up on the furnishings and decor too ! When you go on vacation, you want everything to be as comfortable as possible and we really try to insure you have all of your needs met whether for cooking or just lounging around.
