Booking tips for Ocean Reef
-
Book multi-level units early
Loft-style and multi-level units offer better separation for groups traveling together and tend to book up quickly during peak season. -

Both the wildlife refuge and Gulf State Park are most comfortable outside the midday heat, and wildlife viewing is noticeably better in the cooler hours. -
Make a dinner reservation before you arrive
Popular Gulf Shores seafood restaurants fill up on summer evenings. Picking a spot ahead of time saves a long wait after a full day on the beach. -
