Duplex A-private pool and pet friendly Beach is close

PHOTO ID REQUIRED

Inside, guests will find a crisp, clean interior with beach-feel decor throughout and outside enjoy a semi-private pool (shared by both sides of the duplex) with ample free covered and uncovered parking for cars, RV, or a boat! Pets can play in the fenced back yard. Two pet only and 45 pounds Guest must clean up behind pets.

Following hurricane Sally, Beach Bum underwent huge renovations and now has beautiful new outside siding, paint and shutters, new flooring, and new staircase. The kitchen sports new cabinets, a granite countertop and large sunken stainless-steel sink. All appliances, including the full-size washer/dryer, are new or less than 2 years old. Whether you prefer lounging on the beach, enjoying some fishing, bicycling, or hanging by the pool, Beach Bum is the place for your next beach getaway!

On the main level of the home: a fully equipped kitchen includes a full size refrigerator, range and dishwasher, an open living area with an LED Smart TV with DVD player, a sleeper sofa to comfortably sleep 2 and a half bath. There is a lovely dining area that seats 6, perfect for enjoying a meal. Beach Bum also features free WiFi, Internet and a storage room downstairs for all of your pool and beach items. Sit on the deck overlooking the pool or in the shade under the house and relax.

The primary bedroom is located on the main level and has a king-size bed, with an in-suite bath and an LED Smart TV with DVD player. The primary bedroom also features updated furniture.
On the second level, guests will find 2 bedrooms. Bedroom #2 is equipped with a Queen sized bed and an LED Smart TV. Bedroom #3 features 2 twin beds and an LED TV. Guests in bedrooms #2 and #3 will share the hallway bath with adjoining laundry room.

Whether you prefer lounging on the beach, enjoying some fishing, bicycling, hanging by the pool, or the new picnic area with charcoal grill, guests can enjoy soaking up the sun all day! If you want to explore all Gulf Shores has to offer, Beach Bum is located only 1.5 miles from the center of Gulf Shores' exciting activity hub where you'll find great dining, entertainment and shopping attractions.
Gulf Shores presents a great environment; something for everyone! It is well-known for sugary-white sand beaches and emerald green water and world-class fishing. For scenery, tour 52 miles of trails in Gulf Shores State Park and Orange Beach. Perhaps a visit to the new Zoo, or racing Go-Karts at The Track. Enjoy some great live music at The Hangout. Gulf Shores has added new pavement with bike lanes on both sides of West Lagoon Ave. where Beach Bum is located, and added a detached multi-use paved path to allow for more people to exercise and be safer while doing so.

We love people of all ages and want everyone to enjoy our home. However, we do require that an adult 25 years or older as renter and be present at the home during your entire stay. STRICTLY ENFORCED.

Family Get Away
Our stay at the Beach Bum Beach House was just what my family needed to enjoy the Gulf coast and unwind. The checkin process was easy and the house is exactly how it's described. We enjoyed the pool and the yard for family games. I would recommend this house for any group wanting to enjoy the beach and everything the Gulf coast has to offer.

AMAZING!
I cannot say enough great things about this property! We rented both sides of the beach house for our family and we certainly enjoyed it. When going to the beach, we really like having beach chairs, umbrellas, and toys. The house had all those things plus a wagon to carry them to the beach. While the house is not directly on the water, you can hear the waves and we loved it. We would love to rent again.

Not great
The property flooded in the yard and the people that rented the other half had an aggressive large dog that barked non stop. I thought the max weight of dogs was 35lbs and their dog was double. Pool was great after it was cleaned on Friday which was our last day.

Super Clean
Probably the cleanest place I have ever rented and I'm a stickler for clean. Check in was easy and walk to the beach was not bad. The piol would be great for warmer weather. Very nice to be able use the other side of the duplex for large family or friends. I appreciate being able to bring our daughter's dog, Sampson, since we were there for him competing in a Coursing event. So many places don't allow dogs. Follow and respect the rules for pets so more dog lovers can bring their fur babies with them when they travel.

Great family house close to the beach!
This house is in a great location and has a lot of amenities! Fully stocked kitchen as well! It's a great spot if you're bringing your pets as it has a fenced in yard if needed! The kids will love the pool and the little sand pit in the yard with the sand toys. The kids especially liked swimming at nighttime with the color changing pool light! It's a 5-10min walk to the beach and a very easy walk at that! Waves grocery store was right down the road and they have plenty of items making a quick stop for extra items very convenient. I would recommend this home to any families and for us, we may even consider getting more people together and renting out both sides of the house! Overall, we were very happy with this house and all it provided for our family! :)
