Home in Gulf Shores, Alabama

While you’re there

Check out some of our favorite parts of Gulf Shores. Sourced from our local teams who live there.

The Southern Grind

From fluffy breakfast plates to killer cold brews and frappes, this is the kind of place that makes mornings worth waking up for—and yes, you can grab their beans to keep the good vibes brewing at home.

Buzzcatz Coffee & Sweets

Made-to-order breakfasts, homemade baked goods, specialty coffees, and indulgent ice cream—the kind of scrumptious neighborhood gem that makes every trip to Orange Beach taste a little sweeter.

Cobalt

With a breathtaking sunset over the bay as your backdrop, expect lavish brunch buffets, fresh local seafood, and sinfully good desserts that'll have you planning your next visit before the check arrives.

The Hangout

Where the highway meets the beach—delicious food, live entertainment, a foam pit, sand pile, games, and Gulf Shores' most iconic beachside atmosphere all under one roof.

Acme Oyster House

Authentic New Orleans seafood meets pure Gulf Coast fun—ice-cold raw oysters, legendary chargrilled favorites, and the epic 'Peace Maker' po'boy. Life really is more fun with seafood.

Flora-Bama Yacht Club

Almost as legendary as the famous bar across the street, the Flora-Bama Yacht Club delivers an unbeatable combo of jaw-dropping food, warm service, stunning waterfront settings, and live music — because on the Gulf Coast, it really doesn't get any better than this!

The Gulf

Stunning shipping container design, elegant rustic cuisine, and a genuinely welcoming staff—the kind of magical seaside destination that feels like a hidden gem even after everyone discovers it.

Cosmo’s Restaurant & Bar

Hand-cut steaks, fresh local seafood, and a Banana Leaf Wrapped Fish so iconic it made the list of "top 100 dishes to eat before you die." This Orange Beach gem is anything but ordinary.

Tropic Falls at OWA

The Gulf Coast's ultimate year-round playground—a jaw-dropping indoor water park with 75-foot slides, a convertible glass roof, outdoor wave pool, surf simulator, and 23 theme park attractions for nonstop family fun.

Thank you so much! We had an absolutely amazing time staying here. There were prompt, easy to follow instructions and the hosts were very responsive and answered any questions quickly. The location was amazing with many things within walking distance, but not overly busy. The beds and couches were very comfortable. And of course the balcony with the rocking chairs was the shining star! There is no coffee, and no spices/seasonings of any sort, so plan to stop and get whatever you need. Parking was included, which was very nice! This was the perfect stay for our family of 5, we are already trying to figure out when we can come back!

The condo is in a perfect location and the beach is steps away! Beautiful morning and evening views. The condo has everything you need. Only issues were, the dryer requires 3 dry cycles for it to dry. The size of the load does not matter. We did small and medium size loads and they all required 3 dry cycles. The cleaning company could do a little better. There was hair and sand everywhere. We did find a broom and we were able to sweep everything up. Other than that we had a FABULOUS time. We would stay here again.

Avari response:

Thank you, Dawnita, for sharing your experience with us. We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the perfect location and the stunning views from the condo. It’s wonderful to know that you found everything you needed for a comfortable stay.

We genuinely appreciate your feedback regarding the dryer and the cleaning. That shouldn’t have happened, and we’re sorry for any inconvenience it caused. We’ll be sure to address these issues with our team to ensure a better experience for future guests.

It’s great to hear that you still had a fabulous time despite these hiccups. We would love to welcome you back for another stay, where we hope to provide an even smoother experience.

Our stay was absolutely wonderful! We actually ended up getting an early check in and our host communicated that it might be a possibility and it did end up happening. Super peaceful, no loud neighbors, beds were super comfy and the whole unit was super clean, and nicely decorated. We loved the big balcony and the rocking chairs that were on the balcony! Highly recommend and will stay here again in the future!
