Beautiful Beachfront Cottage ~ Steps To The Water ~ Amazing Sunrise and Sunsets!

Sea Turtle East - Beautiful Beachfront Home on the white sugar sand Fort Morgan beach.

Sleeps 8 - 10 guests, featuring one king-size bed, one queen-size bed, four bunk beds, and two full-size couches (they do not fold out into beds). Large Screen television with Roku and separate smart televisions in each bedroom for video streaming.

We made several updates to the home, including new flooring, new sofas, a new roof, and new ocean-side windows, as reflected in some of the pictures (We removed the tile and installed waterproof laminate - guests so far have raved about it)
.
The Fort Morgan area is 15 minutes from Gulf Shores, allowing for quick access to amusement parks, zoos, etc., however the short drive provides for an exclusive beachfront experience. No crowds on the beaches, and pristine views from the covered patio. See the dolphins swim by as you enjoy your favorite beverage on one of the back porch rocking chairs.

Larger parties frequently rent both sides of the Duplex (Sea Turtle East and Dolphin West) which will sleep up to 20, and provides two separate, fully equipped kitchens, as well as two separate living room areas (which is perfect for families that want to be in the same home, yet need a bit of private space).

NOTE: ** If your group is larger, please also see my adjacent rental at Vrbo # 219632

Host initiated early contact with us on directions, instructions for access, and hints to make our stay most enjoyable. We are already planning to return next year. Direct access to the beach was FABULOUS! We really enjoyed the Ft. Morgan area away from tourist land in Gulf Shores. Highly recommend taking the ferry to Dauphin Island plus exploring local forts and other historical sites. Of course, we also enjoyed a visit to Lamberts. Thank you!

Great place !

We loved staying at the sea turtle! Lots of room, and a very nice place. Great views of the ocean seeing how it’s right on the beach. Had great and friendly neighbors. Perfect for children. Loved the place !
