Townhouse on the Beach! Not a High Rise! Quiet family Complex! Great Location!

Hi, my name is Michael Moranz and I have a proven rental record. I have been renting on VRBO since 2003. I take pride in providing an excellent vacation at a great value. Unit was updated February 2023


Unit 39. This is a Great, two-story townhouse condominiums on the beach! No one above you or below you. The only 'TRUE LOW-DENSITY COMPLEX' on the Gulf! Only 40 units and 250 feet of beach front! No high rise next to you on either side. No obstructed views. Great Family Complex! No elevators to wait on! No long flights of stairs! Ocean view from EVERY room! Two balconies with metal barstool chairs. Private garage (two cars) under unit. No long walk from parking lot. The private garage is wonderful for use as a barbecue and grilling patio. Grill steaks from a newer Weber grill while watching the waves break just feet away.
Any questions you can call me at +13142104376
Every side is gulf side. Located at 723 West Beach Blvd. (182) 1/2 mile from US 59 (the 'T'). o, two story, no one above or below you... this spells PRIVACY! Something you do not have in a high rise! Two large bedrooms and two large bathrooms on the second floor with a private deck off the master. Kitchen, dining room, 1/2 bath and a deck off the living room on the first floor. Has washer and drier in the unit. Walk out of your door into your private garage, then onto the beach 20 feet away. 1200 square feet of living space!

These townhouses feel like a private home on the beach with a pool. THIS PLACE IS LIKE HAVING YOUR OWN HOUSE ON THE BEACH... WITH THE POOL!!! Watch the kids play from your balcony. Enjoy drinks and dinner on your private balcony. Enjoy the use of wireless internet, even on the balconies. Hotel quality linens and towels, all new! No cheap plastic deck chairs.

Ocean and beach views shown on these two pages were taken from balconies or windows in both units.

Great grass field in the middle of complex to play ball with the kids.

It's award winning, sugar-white sand beaches are where friends come to enjoy the clear blue water along with all the water activities that go with it.

It was just as advertised and so easy to get to the beach - no long elevator rides like in the high rises. Great location with good food nearby that we could walk to. The pool was recently redone and looks great and wasn’t too cold but if it was heated I would’ve spent more time there. Great ocean views from the balconies. The beds were very comfortable. Plenty of space to stretch out!

We have rented from Micheal 4 times now, both of his units. We love them and will never stay anywhere else is Gulf Shores. Such a laid back easy going place. Pool never crowded, feet away from the beach and beautiful views from the balconies. Super easy to book, we had 0 issues while staying!!! Highly recommend if you are looking for an amazing laid back beach vacation!!!
