About this property

Private Beach House, Pet Friendly, Ft Morgan Sleeps 10, next to Kiva Golf Course

Bright and open space Beach home on a Private Beach and pet friendly with Doggie doors!

Nestled in Gulf Shores/Fort Morgan, Shalom DeMar Beach House offers a bright, spacious layout that comfortably sleeps 10. Enjoy a fully equipped kitchen, BBQ grill, fireplace, and pet‑friendly features, including doggie doors and a fenced yard. The sandy beach is just a 6‑minute walk (or an even shorter golf cart ride) away. A thoughtfully packaged starter kit awaits you upon arrival.

All beds are made fresh with crisp linens, freshly washed towels, and essentials so you can settle in and enjoy your stay at Shalom DeMar—which translates to “Peace of the Sea,” a phrase often used to express tranquility and well‑being by the water.
With three bedrooms featuring a king bed and sofa bed, two queen beds, and a second sofa bed in the living room, there’s plenty of room for everyone.


A Light, Peaceful Morning Retreat
The 3M‑filmed windows enhance energy efficiency while creating a light, peaceful ambiance—perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or latte after a refreshing walk on the beach.
The home includes two bathrooms, one with a jetted tub and the other with a refreshing shower—ideal for unwinding after a day in the sun. An outdoor enclosed shower with hot water is also available for rinsing off after the beach.
In the evenings, relax on the screened‑in porch—sip a cocktail, play board games, or unwind on the comfortable wicker furniture. Whether you’re gathering with family or friends, this home offers an inviting atmosphere that makes vacations unforgettable.

Guest Amenities
Every guest receives a gift canvas bag containing a thoughtful welcome starter kit to help their stay begin smoothly.
Surfside Shores, the development where the home is located, has its own private beach and is the only area in Fort Morgan that allows pets on the beach.
The neighborhood beach access is a 6‑minute walk or a quick golf cart ride away. We can recommend local golf cart rental companies for your stay.

Because the beach is reserved for owners and their guests, it is much quieter than the beaches in downtown Gulf Shores.
The home sits in a mature, private beachfront neighborhood with large ~½‑acre lots—rare for this typically crowded vacation area.


Interior & Exterior Highlights
Common areas are ideal for groups, including the screened‑in porch with ceiling fans for evening enjoyment.
The living room features vaulted ceilings, large UV‑filtered windows, and a 65‑inch wall‑mounted smart TV with complimentary Roku—perfect for movie nights or keeping up with your favorite sports.
The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, utensils, small appliances, baking pans, and more, making meal prep a breeze.
A laundry room on the main floor includes a washer, dryer, and iron for guest use.
Outside, enjoy the fenced sandy yard, perfect for pets, and plenty of space to relax and listen to the sounds of the Gulf.
Smart TV's are in each bedroom.


Beach Gear & Starter Supplies
Each reservation includes a starter supply pack:
• 2 rolls of toilet paper per bathroom
• 1 travel‑size dish soap
• 2 dishwasher pods
• 2 laundry pods
• 1 roll of paper towels
• 3 kitchen trash bags
• 1 sponge
• Hand soap in each bathroom
• Local gifts for everyone to enjoy

Beach towels are provided and stored in each bedroom closet.
We also provide some beach chairs and kids’ beach items.


Guest Access
Guests have access to the entire home except for:
• A locked supply cabinet in the primary bedroom closet

Golf carts and beach tents can be rented locally to enhance your stay.

Other Things to Note
• Repeat renter discounts are available—send an inquiry for details.
• Snowbirds are welcome during the off‑season.
• We strongly encourage purchasing travel insurance due to the coastal location. • VRBO offers insurance at booking, and many third‑party providers are available.
• I am not new to VRBO and have owned multiple VRBO homes near freshwater in famous Lake George, in the Adirondack State Park in Upstate New York, as a Super Host, and have fallen in love with the Ocean property here and the surrounding area of the Gulf.- Ask me!

There's nothing bad to say about this place. It had everything to accommodate us in having a relaxing and fun-filled family beach trip. The owners have great attention to detail and thought of everything. The labeling in the camp was so helpful. Hanging hooks placed where needed is always appreciated. The dogs figured out and loved using the dog doors and the fenced in dog run downstairs. Dog bags were provided. They were in Heaven coming and going as they pleased and not having to wait for one of us to leash them up and walk them downstairs. Care packages left along the way by host were an added bonus. The camp is very well laid out. The spaces are used efficiently and everything flows very well. We loved sitting on the screened porch in the mornings and in the evenings. We loved and played almost all the board games left for us. The owners/hosts were very responsive and helpful from the beginning and along the way. The camp is in a great location. About a 7 minute walk to the beach (cart provided) and it is a short drive east over to the food trucks where we had dinner one night and listened to live music. We were able to pack so much into a short trip with not the best weather, but it didn't matter. We have stayed at almost a dozen rentals in Fort Morgan at this point, and this is by far our favorite. Thank you to Mary, Kurt, and Stephanie!
