Nauti Mermaid sits on peaceful West Beach, directly across from the Gulf with easy beach access. Located 1.5 miles west of Gulf Shores` main intersection, you`ll enjoy the perfect balance of convenience and tranquility - close enough to reach all the action in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, yet far enough from the crowds for a relaxing retreat. The Beach House Kitchen & Cocktails, Waves grocery, and S&S Seafood are just three properties away for dining and essentials. Popular attractions like The Hangout are 1.5 miles away, while Waterville sits 3 miles down the coast. For larger shopping needs, Rouses and Walmart are 3.5 miles away, and families will love that OWA amusement park is a short drive up Highway 59 in Foley.



Take Hwy 59 South into Gulf Shores. Turn right on West Beach Blvd and travel 1.5 miles to Sea & Sun Condominiums. The address and unit number are shared with the check-in instructions that are emailed prior to your arrival date.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
I first visited Gulf Shores in 1990. My two Golden Retrievers were my constant companions, and I required a pet-friendly place to stay. In those days, pet friendly was difficult to come by. When I purchased this condo in 2003, I vowed to provide a clean space that welcomes pets as well as people, and Gone Coastal in Gulf Shores was born. Since those early days, the condo has undergone many changes and updates as we strive to continually provide a comfortable, upscale, and affordable beach home for our guests.

In 2023, I added Jellyfish Twist to our properties. This 3 BR / 2-1/2 BA in Fort Morgan with views of the beach sleeps eight. Dogs are welcome on Fort Morgan beaches.

We look forward to hosting you on a 5-star vacation to remember!
