Pet Friendly Beach House - Gulf View - Short Walk to Beach - WIFI - Sleeps 13

Pet Friendly (See details below.) This 5 bedroom beach house is truly "Good for the Soul"! It's more than a name, it describes the feeling you will get when when you step onto the huge sun deck and see the magnificent view and actually breathe the air while hearing the rush of the waves. You won't be able to resist the urge to run through the sugar white sand to the beach and splash in the Gulf of Mexico! Don't even worry about packing a lot of gear to the beach because everything is just a short walk back! After enjoying the beach, you will love the outdoor shower and swings under the house where its shaded and a cool wind blows.

The open floor plan allows everyone to be together and enjoy the Gulf Views while lounging or watching TV in the living area, dining at the family table, or while preparing meals or just making a snack in the kitchen. The king master and the first queen guest bedroom and the living/dining area have double glass panel doors that lead to the sun deck and allows plenty of natural light inside and a fantastic view. The other 2 upstairs bedrooms have windows with a "Gulf View"! The doors and windows are conveniently equipped with shades so everyone can sleep late, even the guest on the sofa sleeper! The 4 bedrooms are located on each corner of the house and a full bath is on both ends. The fifth bedroom is located on the ground floor and adjoins a bathroom with a shower. This bathroom and outdoor shower is great for your beach traffic! The ground floor is furnished with swings and offers covered parking.

The home is equipped with a full size washer and dryer, full size kitchen appliances, including a dishwasher,.

The beach house
My family and I wasn’t too happy about our stay at the beach house. The room down stairs had a terrible smell in it. We couldn’t sleep in it because it smelled so bad. Everyone had to sleep upstairs. We pulled the covers back upstairs to go to bed and it was sand in the bed. I wasn’t impressed with the cleaning job. We loved the deck on the house.

110 steps to the sand! Large deck with a beach view!
Awesome location just one lot away from the beach. Very clean and nice. Not many amenities around but the house is laid out so well, you do not really need them. The house is equipped with everything that you need and is fantastic for a large group. It is a very quiet and serene location. .. just perfect for the family. Loved it and will stay again!

Family vacation
The good: fantastic location, wonderful deck, plenty of chairs inside and out, comfortable beds, loved the large stand-alone ice maker, lots of beach toys, nice outdoor shower, loved the swings under the deck, lighted walkway to the road, great counter space by the large dining room table, good puzzle/game selection The not-so-good: not enough silverware for the amount of people that can stay there, absolutely no hooks for towels in the lower level bedroom/bathroom, the lower level only connects to the upper level via the outside stairs, the washing machine does not agitate, there’s a funky smell in the lower level, the couch is stained, the couch is the only soft seating, there were wrappers and hair on the floor upon our arrival, could only get one television to work, the WiFi password provided had been changed without telling us

Wonderful beach getaway with all the family. We can’t wait to go back. Very spacious. Great thoughtful beach toys, you don’t have to bring any beach items; they had chairs, umbrellas, and toys for the kids. The communication with the manager was amazing and she always had consistent communication. I highly recommend and can’t wait to go back.

Great location no crowds
Great place to stay with pets with a large family. Just a quick walk to the beach. No need to bring chairs and beach toys they had everything we needed. You can see the ocean from the deck. Mornings and evenings on the deck were amazing. The condo next door had fireworks for the 4th of July and we had the best view. Charcoal grill was great for cooking out.

Good Place For Family With Young Children
Spent the morning and early afternoon at the beach. By mid-afternoon the sun was behind the Beach Club Condo shading the deck making is a nice place to sit out with the breeze. The large deck area made it perfect for two 1-year old & one 3-years old children to play and hang-out with parents & grandparents. Good view of the Gulf from the deck.

Perfect Family Vacation Spot!
Our family of 5 came down for a spring break trip. The house was right across from the beach access so if you forgot something it was about a 30 second walk to the house witch is really nice if you have small children! We really enjoyed the open floor plan and had fun at night with games that were provided. Having the ice maker and the beach chairs/ toys was a nice touch. We would definitely come back again!

Girl Trip 2020
The set up of this house was perfect for our group of friends(more like family) We all needed this getaway for a number of reasons. We enjoyed the deck every evening and night. The living/dining/kitchen set up was awesome. We laughed and cried on our trip as we celebrated a great friend who passed away. We know she was with us in spirit. Can't wait until next year. We had to cut our trip a day short due to Hurricane Sally (supposedly coming to New Orleans so husbands said come home early) We hope and pray that our new little paradise made out ok during the hurricane. We will be back.

Great View
Great location - walking distance to the beach, but not so far that you can't go back to the house if you forgot something. The beach is private, so it isn't very crowded. If you're sitting on the deck you can see the ocean, and enjoy the sound of the waves. It's very peaceful. Pam is very helpful if you have any issues.
