About this property

Our Happy Place

Sat to Sat only Memorial day thru Labor Day2025. The owners (Kerry & DeAnn, Steve & Paula) of unit 302 on the 3rd. floor in the Seacrest condominium at 1117 W.Beach Blvd. would like to welcome you to OUR favorite vacation destination. We want you to walk in the door and say Ahhh. You deserve to relax in comfort and feel like your vacation condo is truly your home away from home.
Our families have been vacationing at Seacrest for 15 years and enjoyed it so much we purchased our own unit. This is our personal vacation home and we would like to share it with you. We take great care and furnish it with high quality linens, furniture and supplies. The condo has just been freshly painted and re-decorated. we have replaced the old couch and recliner with a new couch and recliner. The bathroom is updated with new fixtures, lighting and comfort height toilet. Our Queen bed has a high-end mattress with pillow top and memory foam . (The memory foam may be removed for a firmer option ) Enjoy your morning coffee from the Keurig or Mr. Coffee on the patio in the bar height table and chairs. Enjoy the dolphins early and late.Gorgeous sunsets await your evening and then walk the beach searching for sand crabs. We provide the flashlights.
We provide a 50" SmartTV in the living room and 32" in the bedroom. We provide a washer/dryer in the closet by the bunks. Seacrest has overflow parking across the street if needed. The facility has a beautiful pool and hot tub with pool side restrooms. We have a boardwalk to the beach with a shower. Luggage carts are available in the lobby near the elevators. Our unit is across from the emergency exit and only two floors up.
We hope you consider our favorite vacation location when you are choosing your next vacation. We are located just 1.5 miles down the beautiful west beach-so close to attractions and dining, yet on the quieter side of the island. We are on a two lane beach road with walking lanes for jogging and biking. The Beach House restaurant, Waves grocery, S&S seafood and an ice-cream shop are only a block away.
Look no further.. you have found your next vacation home on the sandy white beaches of Gulf Shores Alabama.

Perfect family Spring break get away. The weather was great and the condo was just what we were looking for. We made most of our meals at the condo, it had all the utensils and cooking pots and pans I needed. We will definitely look at staying here again if/when we come back.

Golf Shore Vacation 2025

First time visit to the Gulf. Construction at the resort but necessary for upgrades- didn’t impact our stay as we were out sightseeing most of time. Condo clean and had all amenities we required. Right on the beach. Very enjoyable.

Lovely view and considerate hospitality

We loved our stay here, my husband and I did. We visited Gulf Shores to celebrate our tenth wedding anniversary and we are very grateful for the quality of this particular rental. We stayed for a week and felt at home at all times. First, we only discovered upon reading their guestbook that there had been guests in the condo the morning of the day we arrived. Had we not read it, we would not have had any inclination that it was recently occupied. The cleaning service did a fantastic job. The owners are very open to communication, quick to respond, and keep the place well stocked with supplies that you would probably not have thought to pack, such as a lighter or a vacuum or plastic shopping bags. There is so much consideration, you really feel like you live here. The building is well kept and you have effortless access to the beach. We appreciated the foot-washing station on the boardwalk to help keep sand under control. We chose this condo based on reviews like this and I suggest you do the same. You will only be thrilled with your choice!

We are all neighbors and classmates practicing for retirement.

Why they chose this property

We learned of this property from friends and family who also own in this facility.

What makes this property unique

Quiet end of the beach, but still within walking distance of the downtown area. Our small size and location provide ample beach area to spread out. Easy walk to Bahama Bob's for the best Bushwackers in town.
