About this property

Direct Gulf View / 1-1-6 Updated in 2025 - Unit 2202

1 Bedroom - 1 Bath - Sleeps 6. Fantastic Direct Gulf Front View. Directly on the beach. 6 Pools including indoor pool and hot tub. Steam room, sauna, work out facility, Lighted Tennis Courts, Basketball courts, shuffle board and horse shoe pits. Free Parking! This unit features granite counter-tops and vanities throughout, ceramic flooring, comfortable furniture and a full size kitchen. This condo is elegantly decorated with comfort in mind. The one separate bedroom with a very comfortable queen bed with shades and curtains if you want to sleep-in or take a well deserved nap. The living room has an comfortable couch with a queen sleeper. A bar creates the perfect gathering place for family dinners or playing board games. All of your linens and towels are new and our housekeeping service washes every piece of linen, including the comforters on the bed, so you are assured of a clean and pleasant stay. It's hard to stay closer to the beach with the water and stunning beach pool (1 of 6) only steps away. In case it rains or in cooler seasons, our unit in Plantation East allows you access to our fabulous indoor pool and sauna. Guests staying at other Gulf Shores Plantation phases (Plantation dunes, Plantation Palms, Plantation West and the Beach Cottages) on the property are no longer allowed access to our indoor pool, ensuring our Plantation East guests enjoy an un-crowded swimming experience. In the living room is a new 50 inch flat screen television and in the master bedroom is a new 26 inch flat screen TV. We've included everything imaginable to make your stay more fun. Cable and smart TV's in the living room is available so you can enjoy your favorite music or videos as you relax and let the stress melt away. You can also use the blue tooth sound bar to play music from your Bluetooth enabled devices, just remember to be mindful of your neighbors. We have high speed internet in the unit so you can stream or play games on-line. If you want crowded beaches, heavy traffic and non-stop noise you're looking at the wrong location. We are a family resort with a secure 24/7 gated entrance and quiet time beginning at 10:00 PM. Just a short 15 minute drive out the peninsula transports you worlds away to a true resort experience. Sandwiched between thousands of acres of National Wildlife refuge with hiking trails and empty or low density beaches, you'll feel like you're in old Key West.
We have shuffleboard, tennis, horseshoes, and one of the 70 best resort golf courses in The Unites States right next door. Kiva Dunes is a world class golf club open to the public with a driving range and practice facility, and the rates are surprisingly low! Enjoy a cocktail or coffee on the beach at Connections or walk next door to Kiva for lunch in the club house or tiki bar overlooking the 18th green. We have outdoor grills located throughout the property near each entrance and we offer a laundry on each floor in case you want to wash some clothes before returning home. Our island was discovered by the Spanish in 1500 and much of their fleet was destroyed in a hurricane in 1504 just behind our property. Because we are on a narrow peninsula separating the Gulf of Mexico from Bon Secour Bay, you can enjoy both the beach or bay when you stay with us. We have a boat launch across from our property and you are welcome to park your boat and trailer here at our resort. Just a few miles west you'll find historic Fort Morgan and museum, our ferry to Dauphin Island, a state park and marina. You can buy an ice cream cone, fill up with gas, get a massage or have dinner at sports bar within 1 mile of the resort.

Spring break 2023

This spring break great was wonderful. We had a great view. We got to see dolphins jumping and playing in the water, right from our patio. The beaches were great and it was not far from the business Gulf Shore strip. We loved the baby pool and hot tub on the chilly nights.

Room With a View!

What an amazing property! It looks even better in person than it does in photos. The view from the balcony cannot be beat, it's just a short walk to the beach, and an even shorter walk to the indoor pool. We will 100% stay here again. It was clean, well stocked for our cooking needs, and the seating and beds were all comfortable.

This was our second year at this resort, first year in this particular condo. I couldn’t find a complaint if I tried, we love it here! It’s away from the hustle and bustle, right on the beach, and you cannot get a prettier view. It was perfect for us.

Stay on 1st floor or near the elevator. It was a long walk to the ocean too.

Honeymoon getaway

We took a quick trip to Fort Morgan for 3 nights after our wedding. We like the Fort Morgan area as it is not as commercialized as Gulf Shores. We visited the beach on the national wildlife refuge during the day and the point for sunsets in the evening. The condo had excellent views from the balcony! There is an adult only pool in addition to the family pool. We wished there had been a little bit of coffee as we arrived late, but we walked to the golf course snack/ice cream shop to find some. Overall it was a wonderful trip and the condo was great.

Perfect gulf views

Nice cozy condo. With smaller kids it fit our family of four well. With this being on the 2nd floor you have a perfect view over the dunes to the gulf. Short walk to the beach and the on site pools. The only things ( not a dealbreaker) I can think this condo would benefit from having would be a dish drying rack and a bit more flat counter top and/or storage space for food and goods.

Perfect for small family

We wanted an easy vacation after the holidays and this condo was perfect for our family. It was an easy walk to the beach or the indoor pool. It was not busy on the beach so we didn't have to fight for a spot by the water. The owner called me and told me when the rental was ready early which was much appreciated. I was able to cook our meals in the kitchen but it was also close enough to town for us to go out to eat whenever we wanted to.

Great Location

The condo is in a great location and we had a wonderful view of the Gulf. It was not crowded at all since we went in May. It might be loud during the main travel season after Memorial Day, as we could hear others (teens) going up and down stairs toward the end of the trip. But for the most part, it was pleasant and quiet. The unit was clean and had everything we needed! Also close to a couple of restaurants, so we didn’t need to go into Gulf Shores for meals.

About the host

Hosted by Rick Gunn

Host profile image
We live in Huntsville Alabama and we love having a Fabulous Beach Getaway that we can share with others.

Why they chose this property

Unparallelled Beach View from the Balcony with nearly a Mile of Native undeveloped beach adjacent to us. Walks on the beach are Old School as they were 50 years ago.

What makes this property unique

We have all the amenities without the crowds. The Property is not high density, so you have room to spread your wings on the beach. The bed in the Master Bedroom is especially nice as we stay in this condo regularly and I am a bit picky on my mattress comfort.
