Close to sailing, the sea, and more, this smoke-free vacation home brings it all within reach. Gulf Shores Beach and Little Lagoon are just a short walk away, so leave your car at the property, which offers onsite parking.

After you return, you can unwind at the beach (enjoy the direct beach access!), chill by the communal pool, or sip a drink on the balcony or patio; you may also like the fitness center. For a change of scenery, come inside and enjoy the free WiFi and cable/satellite TV.

A sofa bed, a charcoal grill, and a ceiling fan are featured at this 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom rental. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, cookware, and a toaster. And because there's a washer and dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
