Description

Summer Lovin' is a gulf-front home located on West Beach Blvd. in Gulf Shores. It features a total of 6 bedrooms, 6 baths, spacious living areas, broad porches on both levels, an elevator and a refreshing 9'x7' splash pool with the option to heat (pool heat is available for $50/day). It sleeps up to 18 guests (maximum of 14 adults).

The main floor has the great room with a large HDTV over the fireplace, a well-equipped kitchen with great beach views for the cooks, and a dining table with benches and chairs plus stools at the kitchen island to seat the entire family. You'll also find outdoor dining and seating on the porch. This floor has a king bedroom with a private bath, a bedroom with a pair of queens and a bath that also opens to the hall, and the laundry.

The top floor has a beachfront king master with a private porch, a bath with separate shower and tub, and a sitting room that has a twin daybed and trundle in case you need it for your kids or grandkids. You have two more king bedrooms, plus a bunk room that sleeps 4 and is sure to be the place the cousins want to stay.

Below the house you'll find the splash pool sheltered under the house and surrounded by vines and flowers. It is a wonderful break from the sun when it is really hot in summer, but in cooler months is heated and sheltered from the wind--your own little oasis. Pool heating is available for $50/day. You'll also find a hot and cold water shower and changing room under the house, a grill, sand chairs, and a dune walkover.

Sorry, we are not able to accommodate groups under the age of 25. For Hangout Festival there is a Refundable Cleaning/Damage Deposit to ensure the house is left as expected.

Please visit the Trip Planning tab on our website for more information about what to bring, things to do, local events, and more!

Our women prayer group had a wonderful time at Summer Lovin even though it was during a tornado watch and cold weather. The open view to the ocean is beautiful. The balconies are spacious and plenty seating. Even though we didn't get to spend time on the balcony we enjoyed our morning and nightly devotions and playing games. Summer Lovin is located in a great area and if you want to cook it is very well stocked. We could not lock the back door so called them and someone came out very quickly but it turned out we just didn't know how to do it. You have to lift up the handle and turn the lock at the same time. Lol The elevator was a great plus. I recommend Summer Lovin and we will be back.

This is our third straight year at this house. It is so comfortable. Great equipped kitchen to cook all week. Nice to have a second refrigerator downstairs for drinks. The carport is perfect for setting up cornhole boards! The chairs on the beach facing patio are the perfect place for morning coffee. And of course being beachfront was perfect! Already booked for next year! Also we did Sandcastle University! She came right to us at the beach in front of the house. It was so much fun. Ate at The Flying Harpoon which is a favorite!

This was our first experience renting a beach house, we were extremely pleased, enough so we’ve already made plans for next year. The views from the decks were amazing. The sun room on the top level and the covered decks were perfect for the days it rained. I was nervous about the rental process, and what to expect, I shouldn’t have been. The rental company is awesome to work with! If a hot tub could be added under the deck on the south side, the house would be perfect. ;-)

This was our second stay at Summer Lovin. We chose it because it because each bedroom has its own bathroom, and because of the elevator. The house was clean but it needs some updating. The kitchen in particular needs another refrigerator--one is not sufficient for a house this size, and the one in the storage room is very inconvenient for kitchen use.
We saw several bugs during our stay(silver fish), some in kitchen and in some bathrooms.
The main deck was lacking in furniture--there was only a table with four chairs and one broken chair on the deck. We did contact the rental company about the lack of chairs and they brought over several within a few hours.

My husband recently suffered from a medical condition that confined him to a wheelchair. It made the entire vacation a challenge. The elevator and the dune walk over were very helpful. We rented a beach wheel chair and he was able to go to the beach everyday. The carpet on the stairs needs cleaning. Broken windows and screens upstairs need to be replaced. The beach was much too crowded for us I think due to the condos across the road.

The pool was dirty on arrival. did not get clean until very late first day. I am asking for a refund $50.00 for the first day of our stay. There were several dead bugs in bathroom on first floor. We had no blender then the one that was dropped of was broken. We had a broken broom. Several shelfs in refrigerator were broken. lights in front room were very dim.

Our third time to stay at Summer Lovin. Favorite location. Favorite house. The house is really “tired”. Windows and screens broken out on third floor Master sun porch. Paint inside and outside would help. Not all TVS in bedrooms worked. Carpets need replaced or at least cleaned. Overall, great amenities,well appointed. But “tired”. Not sure the owners visit, or they would agree. Looking for new place next year, but may be hard pressed to find something on the beach that all 17 of us would like better.

My family brought my Mom to this beach house to celebrate her 90th birthday. The house was great to accommodate 4 couples, as well as, our mother. Each bedroom had its own bath and the elevator was indispensable to get Mom into the house. Our only challenge was the shower for her, we had brought a shower chair but having an adjustable sprayer head and grab bars would have been helpful.
The house was perfectly located for us and the views were stunning. We all will cherish the opportunity to spend time with our family at this beach house.

You have to book this one! We are definitely booking again!

The beach availability was a huge problem. There should be some way to make sure people in the condos across the street realize the beach area in front of houses are private. We had to take chairs down at 7am to secure a spot; otherwise, there was no room.

Also, the rug in the living room had a corner that was turned up which was a falling liability. You should check that out.

This is our second year here and we've already booked for next year. Management is very responsive to any questions or problems.

This house was great. We had a large group with both adults and children. All the bedrooms had their own private bathroom which was awesome. The kitchen was very well stocked. With our large group we ate in for nearly all meals. Outdoor space was amazing. One of the best deck we have had in a vacation home. Beach access could not have been more perfect. Splash pool was a great bonus if you wanted a break from the beach. Close enough to a activities to be convenient but far enough away that it didn’t feel crowded. We had 3 vehicles and parking was great. This may sound odd, but after many years of staying in beach rentals, one of the things we noticed was how easy the waste removal was! Someone came & took the trash cans to the road and returned them. We didn’t have to mess with them. Overall great experience!!

This house was clean and very comfortable and well-equipped as advertised. The property manager was very responsive to the couple things we did need. We had extended family with all ages staying here and it worked so well--the shaded porch was really comfortable on hot days and the boardwalk made it easy to go back and forth to the house. My MIL really appreciated the elevator--it helped her be able to participate more! We highly recommend this property.

Being able to eat outside also (weather permitting) was wonderful. Everything was as described & as always well cared for.

We enjoyed the felt like a home, rather than just a rental house. Location was fantastic. Loved the views from the decks and the sunroom when the rains came. The library was an added bonus. The kitchen was exceptionally well stocked with pots, pans and essentials.
A couple of items need to be addressed: the carpeting on the stairs needs to be cleaned and grout in various areas needs attention. The addition 0f an actual vacuum would help to maintain the carpeted areas.
GS Vacation Rentals did a good job when repairs were requested, often within the hour. Looking forward to our return next winter.

Every year I take my family and friends to the beach as a gift. I was tired of buying gifts for occasions throughout the year and decided instead I wanted to create memories for everyone. The week is always the week before Mother's Day so everyone can make plans to be there. This year we had three generations of family! Everyone can spend time together or individually. It is "good for the soul" and hopefully we are instilling the "importance of family" in the younger generation. This is the second time we've stayed in this house and have already booked it again for next year. It is beautiful, spacious, on the beach and close to the HWY 59 intersection. We love it and would recommend it for your next beach trip.

We rented this home for 6 days and 5 nights to celebrate my mother's 60th birthday and it was fantastic. Home is clean and decorated super fun and beachy. Location was perfect. Even though it's on a public beach we never had issues with overcrowding or noise. This is the perfect house for multiple families. Dining table is large, plenty of seating in living room and there are plenty of chairs on the patio. The kids room is adorable and our kids LOVED staying in there. We would have liked to have had a baby gate to put up since the stairs are right outside the kids room, though. The pool/hot tub is cute but only our kids played in it since it's pretty small and we couldn't find any settings to heat it up for the adults. It's also at the front of the house so it's totally separate from beach and patio. House has empty lot next door so it doesn't feel overcrowded. Elevator quit working day 2 but we were relieved bc we didn't want our kids in there any way lol. Parking is spacious. We fit a suburban, compact car, small suv and 4 door truck all in the driveway and had plenty of room. Overall, it was perfect and we would totally stay there again!

Many many thanks for sharing your wonderful home. Our family of three generations (8 adults and 6 kiddos) were so comfortable with the many bedrooms with private bath.

We loved the large family dining table and enjoyed the large deck each morning and evening. The kids will not forget their nights in the cute bunk room and the handy outside shower. And we were thrilled to find your assortment of beach toys and beach chairs for our use.

Since we always chose to cook most all of our meals at home, we thoroughly enjoyed your very well equipped kitchen and outdoor charcoal grill. Of course, the convenient short walk straight to the beach made our comings and goings all day so easy.

Everything about our stay was just perfect!

This is our 5th year in a row staying on W Beach Blvd in October during Shrimp Fest. We have rented from GSV 3 times now and their homes are always fully equipped, well maintained, clean, and provide comfortable bedding, furniture, etc. This home was no different. It met our every need for our large group. The elevator was handy for luggage and groceries. The boardwalk was a HUGE plus and will def. be on our "must haves" next year. The smart TVs were a hit with the families being able to log in to their own netflix, amazon, etc accounts!
The ONLY downfall to this location vs other homes we've stayed in was the proximity to the public access and the condo across the street. The beach was very crowded directly in front of our home each morning! We made sure to set up our chairs and tents before 7am each morning to secure our spot directly in front of our home. We purposely rent directly on the beach so we can set up in front of the home allowing our younger children (10-12yo) in the group to run back to the house for forgotten items, lunch, etc and we can watch them from the beach. The home was immaculate and the location to the public access is not a reflection of the owners....just added info for future renters if you prefer to have a less crowded beach. In all of our past trips we have never had an issue with people setting up directly in front of the houses or "on top" of us. Normally people are considerate and move in between houses or in front of an open lot (there are 3 adjacent to this house). Overall, we LOVED the home and the property management is always helpful and friendly!

Very nice home on the beach.

We rented the home for the long labor day weekend. The home right on the beach and has a board walk over the dunes to the sandy beach area. The beach is very nice and the wave action was strong this weekend. The house has beach chairs, floats and surf boards for your use. We brought a canopy to use as we have small children with us. The small wading pool was very nice for small children. The in house elevator helped with us older people who have trouble with stairs. The rooms are very roomy and we each had a bathroom with the bedroom. With 7 adults and 7 small kids we needed the room. I loved being on the beach and able to sit on the porch and watch the waves.

Everything went well - had to call manager to reprogram the front door lock upon arrival. Also, having the DW unloaded and towels washed, dried, folded before 10 am is too tall of an order.

We ask if at all possible that you wash a load of towels and get them into the dryer and another load started in the washer--you would be amazed how many fewer lost items are left when the towels are not left everywhere!

This is a trip that our group of ladies had been planning for a year. We postponed our first date (April) due to Covid-19 and chose Halloween weekend. Little did we know that a hurricane would hit West Beach. Power was out, but was on by the time we got there Thursday afternoon. We loved everything about the house, but would suggest that the owners provide bigger pots and pans as we couldn't go out to eat. One other thing, there were not instructions for the TVs or stereo equipment.

The size of the house was perfect for us though and would go back again.

Only issue is that we had to place chairs on beach by 6am to reserve spot in front of house. Even then we found people setting up on top is us.
