Situated on the Fort Morgan peninsula on the Gulf of Mexico in Gulf Shores, AL, the GREAT SEAHORSE property offers all of the amenities neededin a great private beach community.
The GREAT Seahorse Beach House is by far the best overall value being offered in all of Gulf Shores. This three bedroom and two bath fully furnished beach home has been the destination of choice for many beach seekers over the past several years. We have many repeat guests every year with some coming in for months at a time. We feel that this is the ultimate compliment! We think that you will not find a better value anywhere in Gulf Shores.

Our private beach access, the shopping, the golfing, Civil War Fort Morgan-Alabama State Historic Site, the museums, the fishing, the restaurants, the concerts, the beaches, the Mobile Bay Ferry, the sunsets, and the National Shrimp Festival are all awaiting you! Our location is perfect. We are located in the private beach community of Surfside Shores right on the Fort Morgan peninsula. The Seahorse is Gulf side and is walking distance down (about four minutes) to the sugar white beaches! We are far enough away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Gulf Shores yet only a 15 minute drive into town. You get the R & R that you deserve but can still access all that Gulf Shores and Orange Beach has to offer.

GOLF-GOLF-GOLF! There must be 15 courses within 30 minutes away and two within 15 minutes away! Kiva Dunes (Jerry Pate-Developer) is only 1 mile away! The #1 voted best golf course in all of Alabama!

Looking to decompress You can sleep in late here, throw a steak on the grill, and then take a walk on the beach. It's only a four minute walk down to our private beach access or you can drive it in 30 seconds and park at the beach. That's what we normally do since we can load up our beach supplies and just park at the beach. No loud music and crowds here in our private beach community. Looking to party or celebrate Take your choice of all the attractions in Gulf Shores and nearby Orange Beach. Need to stay connected The Seahorse offers FREE internet access via a cable wireless router. Many love to visit the world famous Flora-Bama bar. Don't forget the annual Mullet Toss! Need a slot machine or blackjack fix Biloxi, MS is just down I-10. It features no less than seven casinos featuring all of the Las Vegas casino games. The Beau Rivage (MGM property), The Hard Rock Casino and Cafe, and The Grand (Harrahs property) are the most popular. Need a history lesson Fort Morgan and the Fort Morgan Museum is just five minutes away. It's the Civil War Fort famous for 'Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!'

    Owner was quick to answer any and all questions. I would suggest renting a golf cart for your stay. It is a little walk to the beach. The beach was Great due to being a private beach. I’d definitely stay again!

    This was out first time to the area! We just wanted to find a quiet area and enjoy the beach. We found it! The owner was checking in to make sure everything was going well! Easy to get ahold of if needed! Short walk to the beach. Weather was amazing. We will definitely be back!

    Wonderful stay here. We had very little time to enjoy it, but home to be repeat customers! Love the king size bed. I’m accustomed to sleeping with a box fan for white noise and was so tickled to open the closet and find a stand fan available! We would advise taking hand soap & dish soap. Everything else you might need they had in the listing. Derrik was quite to respond to any messages. Everything was clean and so welcoming. Lovely, lovely place. The beach access is at the end of the street. We only saw golf cart parking available there. A person could take a wagon to pull their beach stuff down there, or maybe people just park their vehicle along the side of the road?? All in all we absolutely loved this place and hope to come back with more family soon! Thanks, Derrik!

    Owner was awesome and communicated very well and was polite. Short walk to the beach that was private and beautiful. If older may want to rent a golf cart. Awesome value and we didnt even use 2 of the rooms. The owner kept in contact with us on the status of the safety of the water. This was very usefull as we are not experts in this area.

    House was nice and clean. Host is wonderful. Easy check in and check out. I would suggest renting a golf cart because you cannot park at the beach. House is pet friendly but does not allow them on the furniture or beds. We will visit again.

    We had a wonderful time. The house is lovely and comfortable. About 0.3 miles to the beach - there is no parking for vehicles at the beach but we rented a golf cart for our stay and it was totally worth it. Bring your own canopy and chairs - we left the frames up all week and just carried the chairs and covers back each day. Plenty of room for six adults, a very active 3yo and a baby girl who celebrated her first birthday and our dog. Owner was very responsive and helpful. We booked a class with Sandcastle University during our stay and met at another beach down the road (off of Anderson St) due to parking. Overall, 10 out of 10 will stay here again
