In the heart of everything, and right on the beach! Renovated upstairs bathroom and of the kitchen, and beachfront windows! Awesome! Only 0.5 miles from the intersection of Highway 59 and Beach Blvd makes walking to restaurants and shops a breeze. Two fridges. Lots of parking. Doggos welcome with pre-approval! Not only are you in the perfect location for enjoying all that Gulf Shores has to offer, the home itself is designed to maximize your vacation experience with its large Gulf front pool, spacious living area with expansive Gulf views, flat panel TV's in the living area and bedrooms and perfect bedding for the entire family. Bedding is currently as follows: BR 1: South Bedroom. King BR 2: Southwest Bedroom. King plus Twin Sleeper Sofa BR 3: Northwest Bedroom. King BR 4: Upper Southwest BR. King plus built in Queen in BR Alcove BR 5: Upper Southeast BR. Two twin bunks (2 x twin over twin) Other: Queen Sleeper Sofa in Living Room LOCATION! Walkable to Bahama Bob's, Hangout, so much more! Convenient to walk to ice cream, Island Outfitters, beverage store, Italian ice, and more! 10 minutes walk to the Hangout, 2 minutes to Bahama Bobs (we are West of Bahama Bobs). So close to everything, yet in your own private home, and... you get your own private heatable pool. No sharing unlike condos etc! POOL? You bet. Private heatable private pool. No sharing. BIG too: 26x15x3-5' Rectangle, and dded a propane gas pool heater, so YES the pool is heatable to a maximum of 82-84' (the high side of recommended rec pool temps) to take the chill off! This service is by request in advance with a nightly surcharge that varies by season and is per night for length of stay (the 12 month range has been $65-85 depending on season) gas is expensive right now, this does not actually recoup the cost!). Simply request the pool be heated any time after making the reservation and any time up to at least a few days before check in so we can get it on before you arrive. See our FAQ about heatable pools too. The pool is beachside, in the sun, with an expansive deck area around it, PLUS a nice shaded and sheltered area to escape the heat, right under the home. Nice! EXTRA FRIDGE We added an extra full size fridge under the stairs in the entry by the kitchen. Because... you NEED two fridges when at the beach! BEACH ACCESS Beach access could not be easier! Walk outside and their is nothing between you and the beach except your own private pool. Its RIGHT there. Serious beach access, seriously right on the beach, and right in the middle of everything too! PARKING There is available onsite parking for as many vehicles as you should be reasonably bringing to a 5 bedroom. 8 cars? Sure. 10 maybe. But do you really need than many cars? 5-6 cars would have lots of room to spread out! WIFI/INTERNET YES! We have an awesome Eero mesh network to ensure excellent wifi coverage throughout this spacious home. Spotty coverage is always an issue for big places. Sure internet may work next to the router in the living room, but what about the far reaches of the home!? That's why we installed a multi-node mesh network. And what's the internet like? It is generally rock solid and ran > 250Mb down the last test--sufficient for several simultaneous video conference sessions for remote work and education. Internet is, of course, an amenity and subject to service provider outages (and guests "troubleshooting" it), especially with the havoc the sand and salt wreak on cabling and facilities, no more so than any other home on the beach though, and likely better since its close in and new construction! SOAPS, TOWELS, COFFEE, ETC ETC As with most beach homes in the area, the local mgt co provide what they call a "starter supply" of soaps, toilet paper, and paper towels, etc. Enough for the first night to get you going! Please plan to bring or purchase additional supplies, and any cleaning or pantry supplies you may need, or to make a quick run to the store (or have it delivered!). You will want to bring beach towels or beach chairs as well. Because mgt cos will not generally support them, grills are not provided, though they are sometimes inherited from prior guests: your mileage may vary on this, and we usually assess and then go snag a small charcoal kettle when we come down ourselves. Also of note: at many locations, you may find the bunk beds (and certain other beds) are not fully made--instead a bedding pack is provided. This is a common practice for the local management companies, which is both green (if the bedding is not used, it doesn't have to be laundered) AND more sanitary--housekeeping does not have to crawl on the bunks and so on to make the beds. Also also... all our homes have drip coffee makers and most now have Keurigs as well. PETS We do consider well-behaved canine furry friends. This requires owner pre-approval, and is subject to a pet fee (currently $250 per pet). Please inquire. Subject to restrictions which often vary by season. Again, please inquire. No smoking please, but feel free to eat lots of shrimp, bask in the warm sun, and have a great time!

Everything was great. We had a pool heater issue, but got immediate response and it was fixed. Really appreciated that. The last house we rented down there gave us the run around and in the end it didn't really have a heater….heated by air temp.🤣 I polled all 12 that stayed with us and everyone loved it and would definitely rent it again. Only complaint was the week flew by! Thank you! You have a gem!!!

Family friendly, very good location with beach access and pool. House is older than it looks - still a good place.

Great house and area. Easy private beach access with enough parking for a small sports arena. Plenty of beds and bathrooms, and the 16 of us never felt on top of each other due to the large living area, pool, patio, and under house area. Be sure to bring beach chairs, towels, toys, etc as there are none here. Also, bring plenty of toiletries including toilet paper and paper towels as they are limited. Overall great time, would stay again.

I can't say enough great things about this Beach House. Absolutely GORGEOUS!!!Richard's house exceeded our expectations!!! When we checked in, the house was immaculate! It is huge, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed and more!!! We had a large extended family with kids and grandkids, and we had more than enough room. It is very kid friendly. It's right on the beach, literally steps. The view was spectacular. The pool was wonderful and a great place to cool off after a day at the beach. By far, it is the best property I have ever stayed at. In fact, we were asked about it by several families on Beach during our stay, and we told all of them, "Book it!". The only negative is that we were so comfortable we did not want to leave! Highly recommend Richard's Beach House. Our family is working on dates to book next year!!!

Loved the house! Really enjoyed our stay. House was clean. The management company who worked with the house were very helpful. The pool people checked it least once that I know of. Only problem was the lack of sheets for one bed and that was corrected very fast. The big icemaker was a great surprise. With 15 of us it was used a lot and we really appreciated it. I hope we left it in good condition. Really tried to do our best. Thank you again for a spectacular family vacation.

My family stayed at your house this summer. We loved the house and hope all is well and that she survived the storm!

No news is good news from us! Bama Beach Houses answered all of our questions beforehand with their proactive emails/notes/instructions. Very impressive—we knew what to expect, right down to the Keurig vs. pot on the coffee! 😊 SeaRae's location is fantastic—walkable to restaurants without the feeling of being crowded…a nice balance considering how crowded things have gotten in Gulf Shores/Orange Beach. The renovations to SeaRae were great…everything was perfect, clean, and well done. We loved having a private pool—with 5 kids on this trip, it made things much easier and more fun. We also appreciated someone coming a doing the cleaning during the week.
could continue to ramble, but I'll stop. The house was perfect, and the only thing that kept us from booking it for the same week in 2024 is my older sister going rogue and (foolishly) suggesting we go to Key West next year. That won't happen; so, we look forward to staying at SeaRae again soon! 😊
We could not have enjoyed our stay any more and appreciate you providing the space for a lot of great memories.

Perfect for our family. Clean on arrival. No issues. Thanks!

The house was exactly as shown and described. Location is excellent!! Easy access to the beach, very close to multiple restaurants and stores (walkable), and a very large driveway with ample parking. And the pool was a great amenity!! The management company was very responsive. A storm blew through the first night and a glass-top table on the deck was shattered. I was able to text them pictures and they called first thing in the morning and someone came out to cleanup. However, they offered to bring a new table next day and that was never delivered. The house was clean and comfortable. However, decor and fixtures (eg, shower heads, kitchen faucet, living room chairs, etc) could stand to be updated, and there were no basic supplies in the kitchen (eg, foil or saran wrap, spices, tupperware, etc). But, otherwise, all amenities were as described and worked well. Would stay here again for sure!

The Sea-Rae house was so amazing and perfect for our family with 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. All the windows on the backside of the house made for an amazing view of the beach and the gulf. We loved loved loved the private pool. A pool is a must when you get tired of the beach. We had the best vacation and will definitely rent this house again. We also very much appreciated being able to bring our 2 dachshunds, they were so good and enjoyed the covered fenced in area by the pool.

The trip was wonderful. We were blessed with great weather (other than Saturday morning) Your house is absolutely in the best location possible. I think you'll have some repeat customers in the future.

This a GREAT house and highly recommended. We had a great time! The 2 refrigerators and an ice maker were a great addition to this spacious home. Nothing beats a walk straight out to the beach or pool swim. With a big family no one can make up their minds so best of both worlds. We can't say enough great things and looking forward to more vacations at this location. Also the host is awesome to work with.

We absolutely loved the convenience of the home and the location. We also loved having our own private pool and access to the beach. The view from inside the house was amazing! We had a great family vacation.... The check in and check out process was very easy and went well and we enjoyed all the informative emails we received beforehand too.

We decided to head to Gulf Shore's to celebrate a friend getting married and found Rick's home! The pictures are pretty exact to what you walk into. Some rooms had a fresh coat of paint, so not exactly matched to the colors. The private pool was such an amazing feature and the walk to the beach was almost immediate. The house was spacious enough to fit our group, the amenities were all included, and the distance from local attractions such as restaurants and night life are all but 10 minutes away (some walkable). If you're looking to stay in a private home, directly on the beach, in Gulf Shore's, look no further. I'll definitely book here in the future if I ever head out that way again!

We enjoyed staying at your home in Gulf Shores. The location was great, having a pool on the beach was incredible, and the house met our needs well...All in all it was a great vacation. Thank you for opening your house to us.

We had a great stay! The place was at a great location, great cleanliness, thoughtful touches. The pool was excellent for the kiddos and we really enjoyed that space. It was the best parking we've ever had since we are a large family of 16 spread among 4-5 vehicles (7 children and 3 infants so we are busy busy!) this is our annual multigenerational vacation with my husbands side of the family, his siblings, parents, and all their children.
Your property is very clean! My kiddo spilled some water on the floor and I wiped it up with a paper towel on day 3-4 in the kitchen and there was no dirt or grime on the paper! Rare for a beach pad! Cleanliness, location, and close access to beach with the private pool/shade/shower were our favorite features and the kiddos all really loved having the smart TVs on hand for their Netflix and Disney fix.

We had just a wonderful week. Perfect weather, met some lovely people that our young boys went fishing on the beach every morning with, ate some fantastic fish, swam with sting rays all week!! It was really a great week with family.

We loved beach house even though the weather was lousy everyday but naturally the day we left. I guess Richard cannot provide excellent weather. One morning we had tropic storm come in which was very unusual weather from Easter. Location was great. House was clean and comfortable. The heated pool saved the trip with family despite the weather. Would highly recommend. We had 6 adults, five kids and one old dog. We will be back !
