Welcome to The Commodore West – Your Ideal Beachfront Group Getaway

The Commodore West is an exceptional beachfront retreat designed for large families and groups. This spacious 5-bedroom, 4-bath duplex offers everything you need for an unforgettable beach vacation, including breathtaking Gulf views and direct access to the sugar-white sand.

Just outside your door, you’ll find a piece of local history — the Rachel, a schooner that ran aground in 1923 and has remained in front of the Commodore ever since. It’s a unique landmark and a fun sight to explore during your stay.

First Level – Open Living with Stunning Views

The first floor welcomes you with a wall of windows showcasing spectacular ocean views. Gather around the large dining table and enjoy meals with a view or take advantage of the additional counter seating so everyone can dine together comfortably.

The well-appointed kitchen features a generous prep island, perfect for cooking family dinners or setting up a buffet for casual meals. Guests will appreciate the hard-surface flooring throughout, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances.

Also on this level, you’ll find a full bathroom, a large pantry, and a washer and dryer for added convenience.

Second Level – Private and Comfortable Sleeping Spaces

The primary suite is located on the second floor and offers a king-size bed and private balcony access, making it a peaceful retreat after a day at the beach. The ensuite bath includes a garden tub, double vanity, walk-in shower, and private water closet.

Two additional king bedrooms are also located on this level and share a spacious hall bathroom.

Third Level – Perfect for Kids and Extra Guests

The third floor features another king bedroom and a large bunk room designed for maximum sleeping capacity. The bunk room includes two twin-over-twin-over-twin bunks, one full-over-full bunk, and a twin trundle — ideal for kids or group stays.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an awesome week, perfect weather and location. The house itself was great, windows were foggy on main floor but otherwise the house was more than decent all round. I don’t think the cleaners do a great job though. The master bath had hair in it, one bedroom had what appeared to be vomit on the bed skirt. The kitchen was disorganized and visibly grubby, but appliances all functional. There were some basic things that would make a better impression for example The main kitchen trash bin was cracked and about to fall apart, and the couch frame was actually cracked and dipping in the middle. We really still had a wonderful time, I just would encourage the owners to consider new cleaning staff and perhaps updating the living room furniture. Thank you for hosting us!

    The house itself is large and spacious; however, there are lots of stairs. Stairs lead into the property, followed by two more flights. There are no bedrooms on the first floor. The house is basically clean, but some dishes in the cabinets were filthy. The towels are OLD and very thin. One towel I opened had a long human hair in the middle of it. We still had a great time, and I was very impressed with the management. We received a text at least an hour before check-in letting us know the code to get in. They brought extra remotes and were prompt in letting us know of a water outage that might affect the house. The beach is extremely close and has very few people. It is family and dog-friendly.

    We loved our stay at The Commodore West! The house was spacious, clean, and perfect for our family. The only thing we wished for was a bedroom on the bottom floor for those who struggle with stairs, but everything else was wonderful.The beach view was stunning—hearing the waves and watching sunsets from the balcony made every day special. Being right on the sand made it easy to relax, take walks, and let the kids play.We also loved how close the property is to Fort Morgan, one of our favorite places to visit in Gulf Shores. The history and views there are incredible, and it’s so convenient being just down the road.The home had everything we needed: a well-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, and a host who made sure everything was ready. The location was close to restaurants, shopping, and attractions, yet still peaceful.This was one of our favorite beach trips, and we’d absolutely recommend The Commodore West to anyone looking for a relaxing Gulf Shores getaway!

    What great property!!! We had parents, teens and small ones, age 4-10. We had plenty of room for all. Beds were comfortable, kitchen had all we needed. Nothing bad to say about any part of the home. Views were just like the pics....step out the door onto the beach. Loved it all and would recommend to anyone with a large group.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We absolutely loved our stay at the commodore West. There was so much room for 4 families to have their own bedroom and all the kids to have their own bunk room. The best part was being steps away from the beach and also being able to leave our tents and chairs there over night. We have already booked for the exact same time next year and we are counting down the days already. 10/10 experience!

So much space inside - perfect for our group (6 adults, 2 kids) but could have very easily and comfortably accommodated more. We will definitely rebook this one!

    Commodore West checked all of our boxes. We loved being right on the beach and the covered porches were amazing! We enjoyed watching the dolphins cruising the sand bar and saw lots of marine life. The only complaints we had were some places in the house were not the cleanest but it was nothing to ruin our fun. We would definitely stay here again.

    We had 4 families with kids stay. It was a great house to fit all of us. Loved that we were sure to on the beach and the kids could easily walk up to the house by themselves.
