The Beach Club offers fine dining at the Beach Club Restaurant which includes a lovely outdoor balcony overlooking the pool and Gulf of Mexico.

If you prefer to snack by the pool, there is a tiki bar offering frozen summer drinks and an outdoor grill. In addition, there is a soda fountain and delicious ice cream parlor at the Village Mercantile.
There are activities offered for all age groups. The area is abundant with fabulous golf courses: Kiva Dunes, The Peninsula, and Craft Farms, just to name a few. There are also tennis courts at the Beach Club. During the summer months, there are planned activities for the young ones, such as visits to the zoo, face painting, pizza parties, and contests of all kinds on the beach! In addition, there are planned winter activities for the snow birds!
While the house is lovely and very comfortable, the most impressive feature of Almost Heaven on the Beach is the front yard: white sand and the Gulf of Mexico.
The house itself is so relaxing. The view is incredible. Almost Heaven is designed to bring families together. It is close enough to 'town' to enjoy going out to dinner or souvineer shopping (lots to do: visit gulfshores.com), but in a private neighborhood where you will enjoy your space and privacy. Enjoy getting to know each other again. That is what family vacations are for.
