Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

You’re just 1 block from a sugar-white stretch of sand at this beautifully updated 3BR/2.5BA Gulf Shores house, affectionately known as “Anchor Up”.

Gather on two private decks; one with Little Lagoon views and amazing sunsets, the other with Gulf views and constant sea breezes. Or enjoy the shade in an entertaining space beneath the house, complete with a picnic table, gas grill, and a spacious yard for the kids to play.

Additional highlights include a stylish kitchen with stainless steel appliances as well as a large open living and dining area.

The house is also just a short walk to the nearest coastal eatery, grocery store, shops, and downtown Gulf Shores.

LIVING AREAS

In the living area, two sofas (one opens to reveal a sleeper) offer plenty of seating. An armchair and plush recliner offers more space to unwind next to the 55” flat-screen TV.

Host a movie night, or rack up the full-size pool table adjacent to the living area.

KITCHEN & DINING

A spacious kitchen has plenty of space to whip up tasty group meals, equipped with a full suite of stainless steel appliances -- including a side-by-side refrigerator.

The nearby dining table seats eight, and a breakfast bar offers seating for four.

BEDROOMS & BATHS

A large and elegantly appointed master bedroom comes with a king bed, a 40' flat-screen TV with a DVD player, and a private deck with outdoor chairs and tables as well as amazing Lagoon views and wonderful Fall sunsets. The master en-suite bathroom boasts a double vanity, walk-in shower, and jetted tub.

The second bedroom has a queen bed and a 32' flat-screen TV with a DVD player.

The bright third bedroom has two queen beds and a 34” flat-screen TV.

A guest bathroom is configured with a tub/shower combination. There's also a half bath located off the kitchen.

OUTDOOR AREAS

Spend sunny days on the sprawling covered deck overlooking the Gulf; enjoy the sound of the waves and soothing sea breeze. Cushioned outdoor furniture, sun loungers, a swing chair, and patio table make this the ultimate haven to relax, read, and share meals together.

Breathe the coastal air from the master bedroom deck; complete with seating for four and tranquil views of Little Lagoon.

Beneath the house, an entertaining space includes a picnic bench, a gas grill, an outdoor shower, and a large yard for the kids to play games.

EXTRA AMENITIES

Additional guest amenities include complimentary Wi-Fi, cable TV, a washer/dryer, and driveway parking for three vehicles.

LOCATION

Walk one block from the house to spend the day on the nearest sugar-white beach.

Save time for a vacation shopping spree at Tanger Outlets, or the new OWA complex (both around a 20-minute drive).

When dining out, the Beach House Kitchen & Cocktails (a 12-minute walk) and Janino's Pizza (a 20-minute walk) are both great local options.

overall good
dirty upon arrival. used feminine products filled the master bathroom trash can. the shower and tub in the master were both dirty. the floor hadn’t been swept. a dirty bandaid on the floor in the hallway. the dining room rug also hadn’t been cleaned. the shower in the master was extremely small and uncomfortable. the location was as good for not being beachfront. a very short walk to the beach. loved the back deck! the couches and chair were comfortable. had a comfortable and homey feel. check in/check out was easy.

Family Vacation
We loved the house being within walking distance of the house. The big balcony with all the seating was the perfect place for everyone to relax. A fully stocked kitchen and grill were very nice too; we didn’t have to eat out for every meal. The house had plenty of room for the 8 people in our group! We didn’t think we would use the pool table, but it ended up being used every day! Overall, great place to stay and we would stay here again!

This place is perfect!
We had a decent sized group (4 adult women with our children). This place was perfect. Plenty of space. I was excited when I could see the Gulf from the patio also! We walked to and from the beach everyday, even with little ones it was not too bad of a walk! Would highly recommend this place.
