LOCATION!
Walkable to Bahama Bob's, Hangout, so much more! Convenient to walk to ice cream, Island Outfitters, beverage store, Italian ice, and more! 10 minutes walk to the Hangout, 2 minutes to Bahama Bobs (we are West of Bahama Bobs). So close to everything, yet in your own private home, and... you get your own private heatable pool. No sharing unlike condos etc!

POOL?
You bet. Private heatable private pool. No sharing. BIG too: 26x15x3-5' Rectangle, and dded a propane gas pool heater, so YES the pool is heatable to a maximum of 82-84' (the high side of recommended rec pool temps) to take the chill off! This service is by request in advance with a nightly surcharge that varies by season and is per night for length of stay (the 12 month range has been $65-85 depending on season) gas is expensive right now, this does not actually recoup the cost!). Simply request the pool be heated any time after making the reservation and any time up to at least a few days before check in so we can get it on before you arrive. See our FAQ about heatable pools too. The pool is beachside, in the sun, with an expansive deck area around it, PLUS a nice shaded and sheltered area to escape the heat, right under the home. Nice!

EXTRA FRIDGE
We added an extra full size fridge under the stairs in the entry by the kitchen. Because... you NEED two fridges when at the beach!

BEACH ACCESS
Beach access could not be easier! Walk outside and their is nothing between you and the beach except your own private pool. Its RIGHT there. Serious beach access, seriously right on the beach, and right in the middle of everything too!

PARKING
There is available onsite parking for as many vehicles as you should be reasonably bringing to a 5 bedroom. 8 cars? Sure. 10 maybe. But do you really need than many cars? 5-6 cars would have lots of room to spread out!

WIFI/INTERNET
YES! We have an awesome Eero mesh network to ensure excellent wifi coverage throughout this spacious home. Spotty coverage is always an issue for big places. Sure internet may work next to the router in the living room, but what about the far reaches of the home!? That's why we installed a multi-node mesh network. And what's the internet like? It is generally rock solid and ran > 250Mb down the last test--sufficient for several simultaneous video conference sessions for remote work and education. Internet is, of course, an amenity and subject to service provider outages (and guests "troubleshooting" it), especially with the havoc the sand and salt wreak on cabling and facilities, no more so than any other home on the beach though, and likely better since its close in and new construction!

SOAPS, TOWELS, COFFEE, ETC ETC
As with most beach homes in the area, the local mgt co provide what they call a "starter supply" of soaps, toilet paper, and paper towels, etc. Enough for the first night to get you going! Please plan to bring or purchase additional supplies, and any cleaning or pantry supplies you may need, or to make a quick run to the store (or have it delivered!). You will want to bring beach towels or beach chairs as well. Because mgt cos will not generally support them, grills are not provided, though they are sometimes inherited from prior guests: your mileage may vary on this, and we usually assess and then go snag a small charcoal kettle when we come down ourselves. Also of note: at many locations, you may find the bunk beds (and certain other beds) are not fully made--instead a bedding pack is provided. This is a common practice for the local management companies, which is both green (if the bedding is not used, it doesn't have to be laundered) AND more sanitary--housekeeping does not have to crawl on the bunks and so on to make the beds. Also also... all our homes have drip coffee makers and most now have Keurigs as well.

PETS
We do consider well-behaved canine furry friends. This requires owner pre-approval, and is subject to a pet fee (currently $250 per pet). Please inquire. Subject to restrictions which often vary by season. Again, please inquire.

No smoking please, but feel free to eat lots of shrimp, bask in the warm sun, and have a great time!

Check in was extremely easy and worked perfect. The house on the beach is awesome if you are looking for a home vs. a condo on the beach!! The outdoor spaces, pool and area under the house were awesome. Our family thought the sheets could have had a bit better quality but other than that our stay was perfect!

Overall we had a great stay. There was plenty of room. It was nice having 2 refrigerators! And being within walking distance of several eateries was amazing. The pool was a hit with all the family. The floors were not very clean (we all had black feet if we didn’t wear shoes) and there was a fishy smell in the fridge. We brought our family dog but then learned that the beach didn’t allow dogs (maybe that can be somewhere prior to booking).

We had a wonderful time staying at your house. The air conditioner stopped working one night but someone came out immediately and fixed it. We loved having our own pool and renting chairs from Ike's via the Driftwood towers. Your recommendations on where to eat were great. I truly appreciate you changing my reservation week and letting us stay there. I would highly recommend it and if we go back will definitely try to book your place again.

We loved the house and enjoyed our stay! We have already talked about going back next summer! Everyone only had good things to say about the house and location. The hosts were amazing to work with and were always available if needed. They provided recommendations from where to eat and what activities to do that helped us out during our stay. Location is close to any stores you would need. Grocery, shopping and rentals all close by. Overall, a great experience and would highly recommend for families or large groups.

Fantastic Property!

The location of this home is perfect! On the beach and just a short walk to many of the restaurants and stores. The 5 bedroom designed let our group congregate when they wanted but had all kinds of room to get some “alone-time” when needed. Great communication for the owners and property managers!

Fantastic!

Searae is fantastic! It was really just about perfect for us. Having owned a similar property in Destin, I know what all you're dealing with... Weather was about perfect. Hot and cloudy in good proportions throughout the week. Good surf, good food and great memories. It was referred to us and we will certainly refer it to others![👍👍👍 Yay! Thank you so much for staying in my SeaRae and for taking the time to share your wonderful ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ experience. I really appreciate it! So happy it worked well for you and the crew and would love to have you all back anytime! 🙏]

Our (2nd) stay was prefect as the home is gorgeous and having the pool, direct beach access is perfect. However, my grandchild is eight and cannot walk/crawl etc. To carry him up/down the entrance stairs was very taxing. Additionally, with no handicap features inside the home, trying to bath him proved to be hard and not safe as he very limited mobility. We LOVE this property but will not be able to stay again due to these reasons. We will continue to promote this location as a perfect get-a-way for those that do not have limitations.

Great family place

Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms with lots of room for the kids.Very clean so felt like we were at home. Kitchen and dining held everyone for mealtime with so much space by the pool to enjoy. Short walk to the beach and the view was fabulous. Very close to really great restaurants and other things. My family had a wonderful time and would definately come back here. Easy instructions on entry and all that was expected for us and from management.

SeaRae was amazing!

SeaRae was an amazing place for our extended stay! It was peaceful and quiet and it was wonderful to be able to wake up and look right out on the beach through the gorgeous sitting room windows. We stayed for a month so it was great to have such a well-equipped kitchen! The internet was high-speed and worked well which we needed as it was a working vacation! The host was extremely helpful and responsive to all of our questions before and during our stay. The house was very clean and neat and the automatic check-in was seamless. The location is walking distance to great seafood restaurants and shopping. We will definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Rick Goldsworthy

Instructional designer. Behavior change researcher. Father of 3. Teacher. Soccer coach. Hoosier. I'm interested in why people do the things they do, what we can do to change those things so that folks live happier and healthier lives, and how technology can help. Plus, well, I love Gulf Shores!

Why they chose this property

My wife's family have traveled to Gulf Shores and Orange Beach Alabama for decades. I became a tag along in the late 1990s, so a Gulf Shores guy by marriage. One thing led to another and we ended up a several large, family-friendly, large group friendly, places along the Gulf.

What makes this property unique

Location location location! Half mile to Hangout, and closer to Bahama Bobs! One of the very few private homes in this area, with an awesome beachfront pool! Very cute, and very family friendly!
