2 Blocks to the Beach! Overlooking Gulf State Park

The emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico await you at "Isla Esmeralda". You'll be 2 blocks from Gulf Shores Public Beach, yet you'll feel like you're in your own tropical oasis. The home borders expansive marshlands of Gulf Shores State Park with views as scenic and relaxing as the beach itself. Super convenient to all the bars/restaurants/shopping that Gulf Shores and Orange Beach have to offer. If you're looking for a unique Island experience you've come to the right place! ** RV electrical **

Beautiful stay

The house was clean, beautifully decorated, and conveniently located near the beach. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and plenty of beach toys to enjoy. It was so relaxing hanging out on the deck and we enjoyed spending time together after a fun day at the beach. One of the best rentals we’ve had. When we arrived one A/C wasn’t fully functioning. The owner responded quickly and tried to get it addressed that same night but it was late. The repair man arrived promptly at 8am the next morning. Everything about our stay was wonderful!

First vacation with three generations

We love Gulf Shores and everything about it. Because of that, our son and his family wanted to experience the area with us. We needed a place to accommodate the two of us and his family for vacation. It was our first time using Vrbo. This place did not disappoint and was exactly as advertised. It felt luxurious. There was plenty of room for us all along with separate areas to unwind. When hurricane Helene happened and concerns about the upcoming hurricane Milton, I reached out to the host and he responded promptly about the conditions there. He was even willing to keep us updated about the upcoming weather and the possibility of it changing directions. Overall it was a wonderful stay and we would certainly do it again.

Fourth of July Stay

Everything was good, except we didnt get our code to get in til 4:15 and was suppose to get it by 3 and we had to call a vrbo person and they couldn't get ahold to owner for about 45 minutes and we had to stay on the phone with him but we enjoyed it after we got in, the only thing i could saybad was there was still sand everywhere on the floor from the last people and i guess the floor wasnt swept good, over all i would stay there again

Family vacation

We had a great stay in this beach house. There were six adults and our small dogs. Everything in the house is updated. They have plenty of beach toys, some umbrellas, chairs, and a wagon that you can easily walk to the beach. It’s about two blocks to the beach, and the path to the sand is hard enough you can still wheel the wagon or a cooler over it. There’s a water hose and an outdoor shower to rinse before coming in. The one issue we ran into was the amount of stickers/burrs in the yard. Some of them were easy to get out, but others were more difficult and painful. If you bring your dog, perhaps consider some doggy shoes.
