The Space:
Welcome to Gift By The Sea, where cozy southern charm meets breezy tropical vibes in the heart of Fort Morgan! This 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom beach house is the perfect hangout for up to 10 guests, blending comfort, style, and that carefree Gulf Coast energy. Whether you’re here to relax with family, explore the area, or just soak up the sun, this home offers the ideal setup for an unforgettable getaway.

The open-concept kitchen and living area is bright and cheery, with white cabinets, stunning granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. Fully stocked with all the cookware and essentials you’ll need, the kitchen is ready for anything from pancake breakfasts to seafood feasts. Gather around the large dining table or sink into the comfy living room furniture for movie night on the big flat-screen TV.

Step outside to the spacious front porch, where you’ll catch views of the surrounding area and a peek at the Gulf. Sunrise coffee or sunset cocktails? Either way, this spot is perfect for kicking back and taking it all in with your favorite people.

The bedrooms are full of charm and comfort, each thoughtfully decorated with pops of tropical flair that reflect the vibrant spirit of the Gulf Coast. On the main level, you’ll find a cozy bedroom with a queen-size bed and easy access to the half bath. Upstairs, the primary suite is a dreamy escape with a king-size bed, a private full bathroom, and its own slice of paradise. The second upstairs bedroom features a queen bed, while the third is perfect for kids or extra guests with two twin beds. Need even more space? There’s a queen sleeper sofa in the living room for extra guests.

Outside, the fun continues with spacious balconies featuring comfy furniture, an outdoor shower to rinse off sandy toes, and a storage area stocked with beach toys and chairs—just rinse and return when you’re done!

Perfect birthday Gift by the Sea

We had a great Labor Day weekend getaway at this lovely property in the relaxed Morgantown neighborhood. It was just steps from the beach and was very comfortable.

A wonderful week!

This house was close to the beach and absolutely perfect for our family! It was very clean and we had a wonderful time! The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The outdoor shower was very much appreciated. There were 5 adults and 4 children and we had ample space. The only improvements I would suggest would be for a little better furniture on the porch.

Nice getaway

Pros: Great location to both beach and pool. Very quiet area. Loved the ocean view from our deck. Unit well stocked with everything you need. Management very prompt and receptive to any issues and provided resolutions. Cons: Have to travel 25-30 minutes to eat out or partake in any activities including grocery shopping. While the inside was clean, the storage area was a bit of a mess. Door hinges were off and while they did fix one by nailing it shut, the other side remained broken and you could not shut or lock doors. In addition whoever was there on a previous stay did not clean the BBQ pits and they were disgusting. Hopefully we left the one we used in usable condition.

2024 Family Vacation

This property did not disappoint! We usually stay in town, but had friends staying a few houses down from this location, and it was the best experience ever! The beach is easily accessible, and has gorgeous views. The house was a great layout, and the AC worked so well, we actually closed several of the vents even though it was 90°+ outside. The kitchen was extremely well stocked. You will need to bring your own seasonings if you plan on cooking, which we did. Also bring toilet paper, as each bathroom only has one roll per stay. There’s a Dollar General only 3 miles away that has a frozen foods section, small produce section, ice, and also carries beer and seltzer! I went there several times, and it was so convenient! We also had groceries delivered via Instacart from Rouse’s, which was also extremely convenient since it was a holiday weekend! We were there over Memorial Day weekend and am so glad we stayed here instead of in town! The beach was easy to navigate and easy to find an ocean front spot every day, even though it was a holiday weekend! The house is fully equipped with boogie boards, umbrellas, tons of beach chairs, beach wagon, and games. There’s even a cute little ice cream truck that drives around the neighborhood! It is also regularly patrolled by local police, which is nice since it’s more isolated in this area. Literally every home there is gorgeous! The check in/out process was super easy, and the owners were very responsive. We will def be back!

Volleyball weekend

We were in town for a volleyball tournament and have friends that own a house in Morgantown so we wanted to rent there. The house was perfect! Very spacious and clean! Perfect location. The beach was beautiful and not super crowded. We loved every minute of our stay and are hoping to return next year!!!

BEST VACAY EVER

VERY comfortable home! Nice walking distance to the beach and loved the community pools. Conveniently located near the Dollar General and Ft. Morgan pier. The kids made memories that will last them a lifetime, the hubby caught a 7.5 foot shark, and I baptized my best friend in the ocean…AND this home was the perfect atmosphere to wind down and soak it all up! Will re-book!

Great Sprink Break Getaway

Our family had a great time staying at the property for Spring Break. We joined other families who had been to this area before and it was beautiful. Our larger group had a total of three houses near each other which was a perfect setup. The property was exactly as advertised and we had everything we needed, just brought our clothes and some beach gear.

Family beach vacation!

We had such a great week at this home. We wanted an easy walk to the beaches since we were staying with young children. The neighborhood is well maintained and fun to walk around. The home accommodated our group well. Overall a great house for a family beach vacation and would definitely recommend
