About this property

Private lagoon beach, Gulf beach steps away

This home does not skimp on CUTENESS. Walk through the pink door and into a thoughtfully remodeled beach bungalow designed to help your family settle in and start vacationing.

We're four related families with 17 kids between us, so we've learned that family vacations are a lot more enjoyable when the house actually works for families.

SLEEPING UP TO 10

Two bedrooms each have a queen bed with a twin trundle tucked underneath. Leave the trundles tucked away and the home sleeps 8 in standard beds, or pull them out when you need room for 9 or 10.

The third bedroom is the kids' bunk room with four sleeping spaces—a favorite setup for families traveling with children.

TWO TOILETS + TWO SHOWERS

Families also have more bathroom flexibility than you might expect in a beach bungalow: one full indoor bathroom with toilet, sink and shower; a second indoor half bath with toilet and sink; plus a completely private enclosed outdoor shower with hot water.

That means two separate toilets and two showers total—especially handy when everyone comes back sandy from the beach.

ROOM TO EAT, RELAX AND BE TOGETHER

The open kitchen and living area gives everyone room to gather. Inside, the kitchen table seats four and the large island seats five more.

Feel like eating outside? Take dinner to the covered back porch with seating for six and a lagoon view, or eat underneath the bungalow at another outdoor dining area for six.

The kitchen is stocked for the nights you'd rather stay in than head to a restaurant, and there's a second refrigerator downstairs for extra drinks and groceries.

THE GULF IN FRONT. THE LAGOON IN BACK.

This is what makes The Little Lady different.

Step into the backyard and you're on your private Little Lagoon beach, where you can launch the included kayak or paddleboard, fish, play along the shoreline or simply watch the sunset.

Walk about 30 seconds across the street and you're at the shared access to Gulf Shores' white-sand Gulf beach.

We also provide life jackets, beach chairs, beach toys and some fishing gear so you can spend less time packing and hauling equipment and more time enjoying your vacation.

You'll also have high-speed Wi-Fi, Roku-equipped TVs, free YouTube TV with 100+ channels, a Pack 'n Play, booster/high chair, washer and dryer and plenty of spaces to relax indoors and out.

Come make The Little Lady your family's home base for Gulf Shores.

Wonderful week at the beach!

This was our second time staying here and we were so happy to be back! The proximity to the beach and lagoon, as well as the thoughtful spaces and extra storage is unmatched! We love how it feels like a home away from home for our family. It has just what you need! Always quiet and had the beach to ourselves. Thanks for a great trip!

Loved Our Stay!

The Little Lady is an adorable beach cottage - ocean just across the road and lagoon just steps away. Beds were very comfortable and the showers were the best we have ever taken at any beach!! While the weather wasn't great for our January vacation (it happens!), we are looking forward to a return trip to enjoy the back porch, under-house area, and all the water toys stocked for use! Owners were very responsive to any and all questions and needs!!

Beautiful property. Clean, cozy, perfect long weekend getaway.

Would absolutely stay here again. Cute, clean, roomy, and convenient to beach, town, long walks, and beautiful sunsets. Accommodations were perfect for our long weekend in Gulf Shores to attend a friends wedding. Would be great for a girls getaway or quiet week away with your love. Loved sitting in the sun on the deck in the morning and snuggling up on the deck in the evening watching the sunset. The hosts were very easy to contact and very responsive to inquiries. Thank you for sharing your little piece of paradise!

Cozy, Excellent, Perfect Location

If you’re looking for a quieter section of Gulf Shores with quick access to the beach and a fun space to hangout with friends then this is a great location. There are plenty of things to keep you occupied and my group had no issue fitting 10 into this house.

Great house and location

The house is very child friendly with games and activities to keep the kids occupied. The beach across the street made it very convenient for our family. The beach itself was clean and very private. Restaurants and stores are just a short drive away.

The location is great. Truly just a few feet from the beach and right on the lagoon. Very clean house. Bummer you have to bring your own beach towels.

If you want a place to rest and rejuvenate, this is the place. Didn't go to Gulf! Was happy to sit on the back deck and look at the lagoon all week. The house is clean and the beds are comfortable.

Perfect little house

Wonderful remodeled old school beach house—perfect size for the five of us and perfect location. Great hosts, very proud of their property and very responsive. Short walk to the beach and nice location right on the lagoon. Caught several nice trout while out on the kayak. Fridge/freezer downstairs in the closet was a nice convenience for loading cooler for the beach, as was the enclosed shower downstairs. Look forward to staying in the future!

Awesome beach vacation!

What a great stay in Gulf Shores! This house was perfect for our family. On the lagoon, 60 second walk to the beach, very quiet and just a few minute drive to town. We literally had the beach to ourselves. The house was very clean, very well stocked and just an overall comfortable place to stay. The owners take pride in their home and it shows. We’ll be back for sure!

Great Family Trip!

We loved our stay at The Little Lady. We enjoyed the kayak and paddle boarding to use in the lagoon. It was a hit with my kids. The walk to the beach was very easy and the beach was beautiful. The house has everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We enjoyed sitting out back on the deck and drinking our morning coffee. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything you would need. We enjoyed our stay very much!

Cute little property with easy beach/bay access.

This property was nicely sized and had very easy access to the beach (path literally across the street) and the bay in your backyard. Nice amenities, full kitchen, etc. Great and prompt communication with property manager. My only complaint would be the mattresses -- not awful but certainly not the best night of sleep I've had. Definitely a nice little beach getaway.

We have added mattress toppers and replaced older mattresses now. Thanks for the heads up so we could make the improvements!

About the host

Hosted by GSM Properties

Host profile image
Owned and managed by four young families with a total of 17 kids between them. They know what it’s like to travel to a place only to find out it wasn’t quite what they had in mind. That’s why they created GSM Properties, to accommodate babies, toddlers, young ones, tweens, and even teenagers. They’re available 24/7 and want to make sure you have a vacation experience you’ll never forget with your family.

Why they chose this property

Thoughtfully remodeled bungalow. Gulf beach access is right across the street, private lagoon beach is in the backyard. Accommodates 10 guests—ideal for families with kids. The lagoon beach/water is calmer, warmer, safer, and shallower. Kayak and standing paddleboard provided along with additional beach gear.

What makes this property unique

On a quiet road with beach access directly across the street. Private lagoon beach that kids love! Outdoor shower to wash off the sand after coming in from the beach. Great family getaway!
