About this property

Beautiful Beachfront Cottage ~ Steps To The Water ~ Amazing Sunrise and Sunsets!

Sea Turtle East - Beautiful Beachfront Home on the white sugar sand Fort Morgan beach.

Sleeps 8 - 10 guests, featuring one king-size bed, one queen-size bed, four bunk beds, and two full-size couches (they do not fold out into beds). Large Screen television with Roku and separate smart televisions in each bedroom for video streaming.

We made several updates to the home, including new flooring, new sofas, a new roof, and new ocean-side windows, as reflected in some of the pictures (We removed the tile and installed waterproof laminate - guests so far have raved about it)
.
The Fort Morgan area is 15 minutes from Gulf Shores, allowing for quick access to amusement parks, zoos, etc., however the short drive provides for an exclusive beachfront experience. No crowds on the beaches, and pristine views from the covered patio. See the dolphins swim by as you enjoy your favorite beverage on one of the back porch rocking chairs.

Larger parties frequently rent both sides of the Duplex (Sea Turtle East and Dolphin West) which will sleep up to 20, and provides two separate, fully equipped kitchens, as well as two separate living room areas (which is perfect for families that want to be in the same home, yet need a bit of private space).

NOTE: ** If your group is larger, please also see my adjacent rental at Vrbo # 219632

We love staying here in this home. It’s just a short walk to the beach.

We love it here and have stayed here the last several years. Owner is very nice and communicative to our needs. He always responds in a timely manner. If you haven’t tried the tintop restaurant you have to try it while you are here.

House is as described; lovely and beach is amazing. Kitchen very well appointed for cooking meals. Beach chairs, floats and sand toys were a definite plus. Comfortable beds and ample room for gathering.

Summer vacation

We enjoyed our stay very much. Very relaxing time sitting on the porch listening to the waves and time spent at the beach. My husband and all the boys enjoyed surf fishing and fishing at the pier at the point. Would return for another stay.

Paradise on the beach

The beach is literally out the back door! Make sure you bring extra supplies like toilet paper, paper towels, dishwasher soap, dish soap, and laundry soap. Otherwise the place was perfect. Our neighbors were so quiet and we didn’t even know they were there. We would love to stay again

Great Getaway!

Beautiful beach location! The house is wonderful and the view is gorgeous. The owner was very responsive and helpful throughout the trip! Would definitely recommend to others and it would be a great duplex for a larger group or 2 families who want to travel together and have their own space.

Forget Rest of the World

Enjoyed the gulf breeze from a large porch less than 50 yards from the beech most! Only two in a three bedroom gave us ample of space and all worked well. Felt as we we were in a romantic beach cottage. Would stay again.

Wonderful slice of pure joy

This was our second stay at this property. It is a beautiful location. We loved our view of the white sand and blue water. Walk out the back door and you are on the sand. The location is quiet and not crowded like the public areas of Gulf Shores. The house had everything we needed for our stay. Thank you for sharing this piece of paradise with my family

We enjoyed our home away from home stay! We really loved the location. A few things had been updated since our last stay in this home and some work still being done but it did not interfere with our stay. We will stay again in the near future. Thank you for letting us use your vacation home.

Great location house could use some work

The location is great. The house beside us was loud and had 6 big dogs that they let run free at night and would use the bathroom on the deck. House needs some work we thought we was going to fall throttle floor on a couple places. It wasn’t the cleanest we have ever experienced. On the vents lots of dust build up and sand all over couch. My one year old found some granddaughter found a pill on the back deck. Toddlers will find anything. Some of the pickets on the deck were loose. I know there was a hurricane a few years back and maybe the home hasn’t recovered yet. The other side of duplex neighbors were great!

Sea Turtle East

This is the fourth year I have stayed at this property. I love the location. This year there was quite a bit of repair work being done. There was plastic sheeting on the side of the house that would make a lot of noise when the wind blows. Lots of touch up painting that needs to be completed. The floor still has some soft spots. That being said, I still love the place and will go back next year.

Great Beach Getaway!

We booked our stay at the last minute for a family getaway. We had a group of 9 people, and the 3 bedrooms fit us perfectly. The beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. We enjoyed having a short walk to the beach and a great view from the back porch. Our only complaints would be that we were only provided 1 roll of paper towels, 1 roll or toilet paper, 1 kitchen trash bag, 1 dishcloth, and 1 dish towel. For a house capable of sleeping up to 10 this wasn’t nearly enough. There were 2 separate groups in the big house next door that were fairly loud at night, but this is beyond anyone’s control. We felt this house was great for the rate, so would definitely consider booking again!

Perfect Beach getaway

This was our third stay at this property. We love it. It is just steps away from the beach. The beach is not crowded and each property honors its space on the beach. We hope it's available next year when we want to go back.
