About this property

Private Pier - Lantana Cottage

“Lantana Cottage” is a quiet and secluded home away from home. The screened in porch allows one to relax and watch the bay. Guests have been known to see dolphins, herons, pelicans and sea gulls. Some favorites activities include fishing, crabbing, and throwing the cast net off the private pier. Or, cuddle up next to the fireplace with your pets. The lot across the street is part of this rental, so you never have to worry about parking. Less than 20 min to Gulf Shores beaches and 40 min to Fairhope.

Second time to book Lantana Cottage. Very comfortable, relaxing and laid back but still close to activities. Enjoyed watching shrimp boats from screened porch and fishing from the pier. Cottage is well equipped.

Third time staying and it felt like home

This was our third time staying at Lantana Cottage, and it feels like coming home. The bay is so beautiful, and the property is very peaceful. The air conditioner went out on our second day there, but Rachel was so attentive and got us taken care of by the next morning. Very responsive! We will definitely return!

Great place❤️

We all absolutely loved the cottage and hope to come back again! We had crab traps out the entire week and had a good boil our last night with over 20 crabs & my husband grilled several red fish he caught in the surrounding area. We brought all of our kayaks and enjoyed the paddle time & going over to the little beachy area of the bayou for the kids & for some solitude. The house is nice & tidy & just what we needed!

Loved it!

We loved our stay! It was such a relaxing home. My boys enjoyed fishing off the dock. They caught a sea trout, several catfish, mullet, and even a small shark! Enjoyed watching the crab pots through the week and had some to eat our last night. The home was well stocked with everything we could need. Couldn’t ask for a better place!

Relaxing

I gave Lantana Cottage a 5 star rating because it is exactly as seen in the pictures and better. Easy to check in, beautiful views and a very beachy feeling with all the beautiful decoration through out the house. My wife and I would not hesitate to stay at Lantana Cottage again.

Refreshing

This is our second stay at the Lantana Cottage. The cottage was clean and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. We saw dolphins, pelicans, and herons. Our greyhound enjoyed his morning walks in the neighborhood. One of the homeowners has greyhounds and has become a friend with my wife .Rachel is a great communicator and responds quickly on any questions you have before your arrival.

Just Amazing

What a wonderful place to decompress. Love the decor, mid-century modern meets beachcomber. Clean, well-stocked, superb view of the bay. Fish weren't biting, but crabbing was fruitful. There are many activities, restaurants and seafood markets in the area. Hostess is a gem!

OUTSTANDING!!!

The property is just what is described and even better in person. We spent 2 days at the beach and relaxed every night on the screened in porch. Dolphins, herons, pelicans, and we had a Great Horned Owl observe us on one of our daily walks down Council Ln. Rachel is one great communicator and kept updated prior to the trip and the day of arrival. Thank you, Rachel! We will return the same time next year.

Loved the improvements, but loved the view as much as always. This is our third stay here and hated leaving this time. We love the porch more then you can imagine. Perf for coffee, breakfast, and dinner. Watched thunderstorms and dolphins. Not to mention the various other wildlife. Love love love.

Second stay as great as the first!

This was our second stay here and we instantly felt at home. The view is amazing and so relaxing. The weather was a bit cooler and windier than when we came in August, so my husband didn't get to fish as much as he'd have liked, but other than that, everything was perfect!
