We absolutely loved our stay! The condo was clean, very well maintained, and a perfect location for the beach and surrounding activities. The beds were so comfy! The kitchen was well stocked. The communication with the owner was wonderful - she even let us check in early because the previous renter had cancelled. This was such a blessing for us and allowed us an extra day at the beach. We will definitely stay again.

Great Vacation Rental!

Our stay at Beachside Manor was wonderful. The proximity to the beach, covered parking and smaller size of the overall facility are just a few of the great things about it. The rental itself was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully furnished.A special thanks to the owner, who was incredibly kind, responsive, and went above and beyond to ensure our visit was smooth and memorable. Communication was a breeze, and we felt genuinely welcomed from the very start.If you’re looking for a quiet place to stay that's right on the beach, Beachside Manor in Gulf Shores is the place. We’re already planning our next visit and plan to stay at here again.

Amazing

We loved our stay here! We were able to check in as soon as we got to town and our host was very attentive and added many thoughtful “extras” in the place to make our stay comfortable . You can see gorgeous views just by stepping out the door and beach is just steps away. Couldn’t be a better place to relax and recharge. It was clean, tidy, attractive, and comfy as can be. This was our seventh year coming to Gulf Shores for spring break and this was our favorite spot.

Perfect Beach Getaway

My family and I were very impressed with this property. It's literally 10 steps from the beach in this quiet and clean community. The property was comfortable and clean containing all the comforts of home. The owner communicated very well and left us with no questions. Parking was awesome with two spaces located directly underneath the property. The area was convenient with stores and restaurants no more than 10 minutes away in all directions. I highly recommend this property and we will be back.

This was by far the smoothest vacation process ever!!!!! The condo is set up to create open space so we did not feel as if we were on top of one another and it was super clean. It felt like a home away from home, we will definitely be back.

About the host

Hosted by Kaylyn Cutchen

Host profile image
We are Will and Kaylyn Cutchen. We are empty nester's these days looking forward to retirement soon. Somehow, we were able to get the 5 kiddo's we produced to adulthood! They all now have spouses and offspring of their own. With 9 grandsons, it would rock our world if a granddaughter comes to be! We have built our careers in the logistics industry. We are both certified scuba divers hence our desire for a place on the beach! Will’s love of the water further motivated him to become a dive master, which gives him the fulfillment of helping to certify new students every summer through a local dive shop. Kaylyn’s hobby is photography, often photographing high school seniors & family photos free of charge for single mothers.

We genuinely hope you enjoy your stay in Gulf Shores and love our get-away place as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because we love the beach and the community atmosphere of the The Beach Front. The beach is 36 steps from our door with no busy streets to cross! Gulf Shores is a family friendly vacation town with lots to do and see. Restaurants are plenty and the beach is a must any time of day. We hope you take a stroll, watch the sun set/rise and enjoy everything that Gulf Shores has to offer!

What makes this property unique

Our condo is within walking distance (1.5 mile) of the popular Hang Out. We also have a small grocery store, ice cream shop, seafood supply and wonderful local restaurant just across the street. The best thing about our condo is of course the location! You will also find the condo clean, spacious and containing everything you need to make your stay a pleasant one.
