About this property

RIGHT ON THE BEACH: 3 POOLS INCLUDING A ZERO GRAVITY POOL: Book for fall/winter


You've found the ideal place to enjoy sugar sand beaches and all that Gulf Shores has to offer. We are located in The Lighthouse, one of the newest complexes on the beach, offering a zero entry pool, a second over sized outdoor pool, an indoor pool, 2 hot tubs, fitness center, and sauna.

From our balcony, you will enjoy a breathtaking, unobstructed view of the beach and Gulf. Inside you will find approximately 1,000 square feet of beautifully appointed space to enjoy. Our unit offers floor to ceiling windows allowing you and your family to take in the view whether you are relaxing in the living room, resting in the master bedroom, or even preparing lunch in the kitchen.

The master bedroom has hard wood floors with a bright and airy feel. The master bath has a granite double vanity, a large walk in closet, a jacuzzi tub, and a separate shower.

The living area is brand new. The latte colored sofa boasts a queen sleeper sofa, a 42' flat screen tv, and a bistro table to enjoy morning coffee or snack while enjoying the outdoor view.

The kitchen is also well equipped with everything you need to prepare a gourmet meal including dinnerware, cookware, and utensils.

We are very centrally located. We are less than one mile from 59 which means we are less than one mile from The Hangout (a favorite among locals and visitors)!

If you MUST do laundry, we have a full sized washer and dryer, as well as an ironing board and iron.

The parking passes are now sold onsite and the cost is $40.00

Effective Friday March 1st, 2024 the fee for parking passes at Lighthouse will increase to $50 per vehicle.

If our calendar does not show availability for your specific dates, please consider taking a peek at another condo we own at Surf Side Shores, VRBO #432788 or The Wharf VRBO#482531!

I wouldn't say it is Great but it is good pace to stay. Pretty clean and in a good spot. Needs some upgrades but depends on what you are staying for. We were not in the condo much so it was just fine. No serious complaints.

Remarkable stay

Our stay was great and the condo was exactly as described. We really enjoyed the Lighthouse and all it has to offer. My son loved the pool with the sprinklers. Could not have asked for a better experience from beginning to end. Kim was great to work with. Can't wait for next year!

Perfect place to Stay!

We chose this vacation spot for our 10 year wedding anniversary and found it to be every thing we had hoped for! It had all the comforts of home with extras that put it over the top! It was immaculately clean and had every thing the owner promised. We chose it for its awesome view, beautiful decor, great patio furniture, and the wonderful jacuzzi tub! Owners were easy to work with and very personable. We look forward to coming back and staying next year! Thank you for making our stay Perfect!

Second time renter

The unit was very clean. The complex is very well maintained as well. As far as the owner you will not find a more attentive gracious host. While it was Easter week there was no excessive noise or issues. We would not hesitate to stay again, especially with this owner.

Wow!

The place was just as advertised, with a large balcony facing the ocean! The balcony was easily accessible from the bedroom or the living room. Number 510 is right in the middle of the building so it was super easy to get to, right next to the elevators! The property manager, Kim, was very pleasant to deal with and gave us all the information we needed to have a boatload of fun at this place! We walked all over the area. This was the seventh place we stayed at on our trip, and it was the best! If we ever go back to Gulf Shores, we’ll definitely try to get this place again. The only bad part about it on our trip, was the weather. The pools were beautiful, but we couldn’t use them. It was too cold – maybe next time!

Labor day weekend

The unit is a lot smaller than it looks, but who stays in the room that long? However it accommodated 4 adults and a 5 year old. The second bed room is super tiny. Bathroom wasnt clean very well and the last tenants clothing and bathing toiletries were lef behind. If it would have been cleaner i wpuld stay five stars. The polls are awesome and its super close to the beach.

Gulf Shores Vacation

Our stay at Starbuck's and Biscotti II was awesome. Thanks Kim! The condo was beautiful and cozy. We love staying right on the beach. The Lighthouse has pools and workout room if you can't get out on the beach for sun and exercise. You can watch the beautiful sun rises from the balcony. And, if you're fortunate you may see dolphins in the ocean. There are lots of good restaurants nearby - Colbalt's is one of our favorites. Gulf Shores and the Lighthouse has always been a memorable vacation for us. Thanks again Kim!!

Great Stay

Floors were left dirty by cleaning crew. Showers were small with bad water pressure. No TP. Construction everywhere due to 2020 Hurricane. But the upsides outweighed all that! Great view and overall great accommodations! Immediate beach access and everything around was either walking distance or a short drive. We will definitely be staying again.

Lighthouse Condos Amazing Views

We had never been to Gulf Shores. So glad we chose this condo & place to visit. The condo was clean, right on the beach, and has three pools for your enjoyment. There are things to do everywhere and the locals are very hospitable & friendly. Met a few STL, Mo transplants and it was good to get their take on the area as we are highly considering GS as a future home. I will say this, we will be back to vacay and would definitely consider this unit again. We will also most likely be back on a permanent basis in the next 5-7 years. GO TO GULF SHORES, STAY HERE, ENJOY!

i love the beach. Great location!!!

Kim, aince I don't like to give negativite reviews I tried to find your personal email but lost it, but feel I must be honest. The overal condo was nice. Kitchen, bathrooms fine. Great location within the complex and great complex location in GS. I did however find the condo not to be as clean as I am used to. There were food fingerprints on kitchen cabinets and even a pair of panties behind sofa. You need to rethink having guests wash and put up dishes since I found several that weren't very clean with food even still in one. The shower in the master bath had no water pressure. Since these are issues that can be easily taken care of I am sure they will be for future guests. Kim was extremely helpful and accommodating.

We love this Condo! It has an amazing view and nice rooms. The kids love being able to share a room with bunk beds. This is our second time staying here. Kim is amazing and easy to contact and work with. She even used a special laundry detergent for us upon request. The rooms weren't as clean this time around. The floors and showers were dirty. Also if ice is important to you, there isn't an ice maker and some of the ice trays were broken. Otherwise I totally recommend staying with Kim!

Great location/bad incident

The location of this property is amazing, the pools were very nice and big and overall the condo is nice. It is very outdated and the second “bedroom” is tiny, more like a closet. It was very difficult to consider this a bedroom. The only issue we had was the first morning of our stay we were woke up to banging on the door followed by a man just walking in the condo at 8:15 am saying he was there to work on the AC. We were not aware of this visit and was really put off by someone just coming in the condo before we even had a chance to open the door. Woke my 7 year old up because of how loud he was entering the condo and the work he was doing. Overall we enjoyed our stay but was very upset by this incident.

Perfect for what we needed.

It was right on the beach and clean. We had no issues and would recommend to anyone. Aesthetically, the master bedroom was a little off. The curtain was hanging in the corner, there were two nice size holes where a picture used to be (just throw a new one up), and the jet heads in the tub were a little off putting. Overall this was a great stay and the property worked great for us.

About the host

Hosted by Kim Clatterbuck

Host profile image
We are a family of 6. Our kids range in age from 13 year old twins to a 22 year old son!

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because it is somewhat different than the other beach condo we purchased in 2012. We own another 2 bedroom unit at Surf Side Shores. It is as beautifully decorated as this one but Surf Side Shores is considered a low density unit. The Lighthouse is a high density unit because here, you will find over 200 units whereas at Surf Side, there are only 48 units. We love both of our condos. When we want a quieter vacation, we head to Surf Side and when we want to whoop it up, we head to the Lighthouse. If you are looking for something low key please consider our other unit at VRBO# 432788.

What makes this property unique

The Lighthouse has a little bit of everything to offer. If you want to relax quietly on the balcony, go for it. If you want to be part of the beach crowd, go for it. If you want to be with the kids at the pool, go for it! If you want to walk to The Hangout for a bite to eat, go for it. This complex is so centrally located, everything is at your fingertips.

As part of our effort to help you relax and enjoy your stay, we have partnered with Safely.com to provide you with the below protection. The cost of this protection has been included in your rental rate and fees and covers you for accidental damages during your stay. The Safely Stay, Inc. Trust and Safety Fee includes up to $10,000 of accidental coverage for contents damage and up to $100,000 coverage for accidental property damage and bodily injury. Complete terms regarding the Trust and Safety coverage can be found at safely.com/vipmanagement. The Trust and Safety Fee is refundable only if the reservation is canceled in writing at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the arrival date.
