Description

Summer Lovin' is a gulf-front home located on West Beach Blvd. in Gulf Shores. It features a total of 6 bedrooms, 6 baths, spacious living areas, broad porches on both levels, an elevator and a small refreshing splash pool. It sleeps up to 18 guests (maximum of 14 adults).

The main floor has the great room with a large HDTV over the fireplace, a well-equipped kitchen with great beach views for the cooks, and a dining table with benches and chairs plus stools at the kitchen island to seat the entire family. You'll also find outdoor dining and seating on the porch. This floor has a king bedroom with a private bath, a bedroom with a pair of queens and a bath that also opens to the hall, and the laundry.

The top floor has a beachfront king master with a private porch, a bath with separate shower and tub, and a sitting room that has a twin daybed and trundle in case you need it for your kids or grandkids. You have two more king bedrooms, plus a bunk room that sleeps 4 and is sure to be the place the cousins want to stay.

Below the house you'll find the splash pool sheltered under the house and surrounded by vines and flowers. It is a wonderful break from the sun when it is really hot in summer, but in cooler months is heated and sheltered from the wind--your own little oasis. Pool heating is available for $50/day. You'll also find a hot and cold water shower and changing room under the house, a grill, sand chairs, and a dune walkover.

Sorry, we are not able to accommodate groups under the age of 25. For Hangout Festival there is a Refundable Cleaning/Damage Deposit to ensure the house is left as expected.

3 families with young kids, this place couldn't have been more perfect. We all had enough space to spread out and the toys/beach gear made it convenient to spend all of our time at the gorgeous beach. We had everything we needed for a perfect vacation!

Summer Lovin made for a wonderful vacation experience. It was spacious and had all of the conveniences needed. We really liked the boardwalk going down to the beach. We loved the open concept of the kitchen and living room area. We will definitely come back to this beach house with our family again.

This is our 5th year in a row staying on W Beach Blvd in October during Shrimp Fest. We have rented from GSV 3 times now and their homes are always fully equipped, well maintained, clean, and provide comfortable bedding, furniture, etc. This home was no different. It met our every need for our large group. The elevator was handy for luggage and groceries. The boardwalk was a HUGE plus and will def. be on our "must haves" next year. The smart TVs were a hit with the families being able to log in to their own netflix, amazon, etc accounts!
The ONLY downfall to this location vs other homes we've stayed in was the proximity to the public access and the condo across the street. The beach was very crowded directly in front of our home each morning! We made sure to set up our chairs and tents before 7am each morning to secure our spot directly in front of our home. We purposely rent directly on the beach so we can set up in front of the home allowing our younger children (10-12yo) in the group to run back to the house for forgotten items, lunch, etc and we can watch them from the beach. The home was immaculate and the location to the public access is not a reflection of the owners....just added info for future renters if you prefer to have a less crowded beach. In all of our past trips we have never had an issue with people setting up directly in front of the houses or "on top" of us. Normally people are considerate and move in between houses or in front of an open lot (there are 3 adjacent to this house). Overall, we LOVED the home and the property management is always helpful and friendly!

This is the second time we have stayed at Summer Lovin and both times the house was perfect for us. 12 of our family make annual trek and the room sizes and house really fit our needs. Plus the quick and easy acces to the beach make our experience even better since my parents are in their late 70s and we have several small children.

Perfect house for several families

Many many thanks for sharing your wonderful home. Our family of three generations (8 adults and 6 kiddos) were so comfortable with the many bedrooms with private bath.

We loved the large family dining table and enjoyed the large deck each morning and evening. The kids will not forget their nights in the cute bunk room and the handy outside shower. And we were thrilled to find your assortment of beach toys and beach chairs for our use.

Since we always chose to cook most all of our meals at home, we thoroughly enjoyed your very well equipped kitchen and outdoor charcoal grill. Of course, the convenient short walk straight to the beach made our comings and goings all day so easy.

Everything about our stay was just perfect!

We rented the home for the long labor day weekend. The home right on the beach and has a board walk over the dunes to the sandy beach area. The beach is very nice and the wave action was strong this weekend. The house has beach chairs, floats and surf boards for your use. We brought a canopy to use as we have small children with us. The small wading pool was very nice for small children. The in house elevator helped with us older people who have trouble with stairs. The rooms are very roomy and we each had a bathroom with the bedroom. With 7 adults and 7 small kids we needed the room. I loved being on the beach and able to sit on the porch and watch the waves.

Everything went well - had to call manager to reprogram the front door lock upon arrival. Also, having the DW unloaded and towels washed, dried, folded before 10 am is too tall of an order. We made it happen, but, usually do not have to meet those requests. All else went fine. Enjoyed the house and its location.
Manager response on 2019-06-01 - Response from Gulf Shores Vacation Rentals, Inc
We ask if at all possible that you wash a load of towels and get them into the dryer and another load started in the washer--you would be amazed how many fewer lost items are left when the towels are not left everywhere!

The location was the best for us--no worries about grandchildren crossing the street to reach the beach. The elevator was great for me since I have trouble walking & easily accommodated my travel wheelchair. The view was great & very much enjoyed from inside as well from the large porch. Being able to eat outside also (weather permitting) was wonderful. Everything was as described & as always well cared for.

House more than met our needs. Bunk room was a big hit with my great grandsons. Beach equipment was very nice to have, Splash pool was nice to relax in at the end of the day. Only issue is that we had to place chairs on beach by 6am to reserve spot in front of house. Even then we found people setting up on top is us.

We enjoyed the felt like a home, rather than just a rental house. Location was fantastic. Loved the views from the decks and the sunroom when the rains came. The library was an added bonus. The kitchen was exceptionally well stocked with pots, pans and essentials.
A couple of items need to be addressed: the carpeting on the stairs needs to be cleaned and grout in various areas needs attention. The addition 0f an actual vacuum would help to maintain the carpeted areas.
GS Vacation Rentals did a good job when repairs were requested, often within the hour. Looking forward to our return next winter.

Every year I take my family and friends to the beach as a gift. I was tired of buying gifts for occasions throughout the year and decided instead I wanted to create memories for everyone. The week is always the week before Mother's Day so everyone can make plans to be there. This year we had three generations of family! Everyone can spend time together or individually. It is "good for the soul" and hopefully we are instilling the "importance of family" in the younger generation. This is the second time we've stayed in this house and have already booked it again for next year. It is beautiful, spacious, on the beach and close to the HWY 59 intersection. We love it and would recommend it for your next beach trip.

This was by far the best rental we have stayed in at Gulf Shores in 7 years. The house was well layed out and very clean. The beach was so beautiful. On a scale of 1-10 this house was a 10. Check in/check out was easy.

We rented this home for 6 days and 5 nights to celebrate my mother's 60th birthday and it was fantastic. Home is clean and decorated super fun and beachy. Location was perfect. Even though it's on a public beach we never had issues with overcrowding or noise. This is the perfect house for multiple families. Dining table is large, plenty of seating in living room and there are plenty of chairs on the patio. The kids room is adorable and our kids LOVED staying in there. We would have liked to have had a baby gate to put up since the stairs are right outside the kids room, though. The pool/hot tub is cute but only our kids played in it since it's pretty small and we couldn't find any settings to heat it up for the adults. It's also at the front of the house so it's totally separate from beach and patio. House has empty lot next door so it doesn't feel overcrowded. Elevator quit working day 2 but we were relieved bc we didn't want our kids in there any way lol. Parking is spacious. We fit a suburban, compact car, small suv and 4 door truck all in the driveway and had plenty of room. Overall, it was perfect and we would totally stay there again!

Our family of four generations enjoyed our stay at Summer Lovin. The house is beautiful with lots of room for togetherness and serenity. Kitchen is well stocked with high end cookware and dishes. Having a bath for each bedroom is also a plus. Close to the beach and the wooden walkway is a plus.

Excellent

This house is fabulous! Do clean, tastefully decorated and enough room for our large family. Enjoyed having our own walkway to the beach. We definitely plan on returning
