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.

La verdad muy cómoda estación quedé encanta sin duda si vuelvo , volvería a reservar allí mismo

Básicamente todo pero me encantó la ubicación y la vista y sobre todo el estilo vintage del departamento 😍😩

Pues las televisiones ciento que si estaban un poco antiguas me costó saber cómo utilizarlas pero el internet súper buena señal llego asta la playa la señal del Wifi 👌🏻y la verdad el que no se nos notificara que no había alguna oficina también fue un poco desubicaste pero lo resolví .

Avari response:

Lamentamos que tuviste dificultades con los televisores y que no recibiste información sobre la oficina. Agradecemos tus comentarios, ya que nos ayudan a mejorar la experiencia de nuestros huéspedes. Nos alegra que la señal de internet haya funcionado bien, incluso en la playa.

Esperamos que regreses pronto para disfrutar de más momentos maravillosos en Gulf Shores.

Great location to Gulf shore beach! Very, very short walk to beach. Close to restaurants/dessert/shops. Room is very spacious and comfortable, with good balcony view of beach.

It sounds like you made the most of our fantastic location, with just a short walk to the beach and easy access to all the local dining and shopping options.

The condo was centrally located in Gulf Shores, AL. There were plenty of amenities and things to do.
The Avari Management team was attentive to any communications and checked on me daily.
I highly recommend this site.

No complaints about this last minute booking. The pool was clean and not crowded on July 4th weekend. The walk right out to the beach was perfect! There were rental chairs and umbrellas available. The building was safe and quiet.

It’s great to know you enjoyed the clean pool and the peaceful atmosphere, especially during such a busy holiday weekend. Having easy access to the beach is one of the highlights of our property, and we’re glad you took advantage of the rental chairs and umbrellas.

We strive to create a comfortable and safe environment for all our guests, and it’s wonderful to hear that you felt that during your stay. We would love to welcome you back anytime for another relaxing getaway.
