About this property

Now Booking 2025! - Corner Unit 3BR-3BA, Huge Balcony, 5-Star Awesome Reviews !!

Welcome to the Lighthouse! If you are looking for a relaxing, beautifully decorated, vacation destination with all the amenities, and the LARGEST FLOOR PLAN you have arrived. The living area, kitchen, master bedroom, and one of the additional bedrooms have panoramic, gulf front views through walls of floor to ceiling windows. That’s right - this condominium has TWO GULF FRONT BEDROOMS! This floor plan is the largest 3 bedroom layout in the complex with 1547 square feet of living space and an 85 FOOT BALCONY. Sleeps 6.

The Lighthouse complex offers the best amenities in Gulf Shores. Our unit includes all developer upgrades featuring tile floors throughout, granite counter tops in the kitchen and baths, and an upgraded stainless steel kitchen appliance package. Our condominium is located on the 6th floor and has incredible, unobstructed eastern, southern and western views of the beach from the oversized, wraparound balcony.

This unit is regularly updated and well maintained for the rental market because the owners (and their friends/family) use it 5-6 months of the year themselves. This it is more of a second home than a traditional rental property. Recent upgrades for 2021 include new mattresses in two bedrooms, new living room furniture, new patio furniture, and fresh paint. Check out our reviews!

The Master Suite is truly luxurious and has a wall of floor to ceiling windows providing an incredible view of the beach. It has a king-size pillow top bed, 32' HDTV, and a sliding glass door that opens to the balcony. The private master bathroom features a his and her vanity, large walk-in closet, large jetted whirlpool garden tub, and separate shower.

The remaining two bedrooms feature queen-size, pillow top beds with private full bathrooms. Each of these bedrooms is equipped with a 24' HDTV. Remember, one of these bedrooms is gulf front.

The Living Area also has unparalleled views overlooking the beach with access to the balcony. A 50' HDTV and Blu-Ray player are provided in the living room along with a sofa, two chairs, and a lazyboy recliner. The adjacent dining room has a large table with seating for six, or you can enjoy dining on the balcony at a bar height table that seats two.

The Kitchen is fully equipped with dishwasher, microwave, stove, side by side refrigerator/freezer with in door ice/water dispenser, toaster, blender, coffee maker and Keurig, mixer, and a breakfast bar with seating for four. Plenty of cabinets offer ample storage space for food and supplies. All utensils and dishware are furnished. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large laundry room with a full sized washer and dryer with iron, ironing board and vacuum. Free local telephone service is included along with a high speed Internet connection with free unlimited use.

The Lighthouse is located directly on the Gulf of Mexico in the heart of Gulf Shores, Alabama and is near entertainment, restaurants, and shopping including grocery stores. Every amenity that you can imagine is here for you including: 2 outdoor pools (one lap pool and one zero entry pool that's great for the kids), an indoor heated pool, 2 hot tubs, exercise room, sauna and 635 feet of beachfront.

The Lighthouse condominium building is located on Highway 182 (455 East Beach Blvd.), approximately 0.7 mile east of Highway 59. Approximate drive times are as follows: Pensacola, FL (0:50 hr), Mobile, AL (1:15 hrs), New Orleans, LA (4:00 hrs), Jackson, MS (6:00 hrs), Birmingham, AL (5:00 hrs), Atlanta, GA (6:30 hrs), Nashville, TN (6:45 hrs).

Family vacation

We had a great vacation in Gulf Shores! This unit was just as it was described. And the owners responded immediately to any questions. The only thing I would suggest is new pillows, as they all seem to be pretty flat. I know everyone’s preferences are different when it comes to pillows and many pack their own (we just choose not to pack ours). We were happy with the elevators being in multiple locations which helped a bit with the busy times, like check in day, and when rain hit and it was a mass exodus from the beach, LOL. We parked on the top level of the parking garage, which is the 3rd floor and then had quick access to this 6th floor unit. And it wasn’t an issue even to take the steps if you didn’t have a load to carry. And there seemed to be PLENTY of carts when it came to unloading and loading your vehicle!! We have been coming to the Gulf Shores area since the 90’s with our children and now our grandchildren. It’s crazy how much it’s changed!!! We have stayed most often on the Orange Beach end, but we always seemed to end up in Gulf Shores for supper and evening entertainment. So this time we stayed close to the Hwy 59 intersection. Be prepared for the traffic (we tend to go out early to eat and not quite so bad early). But definitely bring your patience and don’t be in a hurry😜. This was a great complex and unit and would definitely consider staying here again! Kim and Family from Missouri

We absolutely loved our stay at lighthouse 601! The condo was well stocked with everything you could possibly need and there are plenty of stores nearby to pick up anything you can’t find! The views from the balcony were stunning. We weren’t sure at first if we would be able to make it with Ida coming in, but communication with Marty was very quick and he was so helpful with any questions we had. Overall I would definitely recommend this condo and owner, both are fantastic!

Beautiful Condo and View!

The property was exceptional. The unit itself was well equipped with everything we could ask for. Ease of access to the beach and to the many Restaurants and Venues. We had a great time, the weather was great. We did have a lot of seaweed going on this week but otherwise good. Only recommendation we may possibly have is suggestion of newer mattresses and/or creeky beds in the unit; otherwise exceptional! Would definitely recommend this unit and would consider it again.

Love Lighthouse Condos

Our unit was in a great location - loved the huge balcony and views. It met all of our needs, and it's hard to please teenagers. It had the space we needed for everyone who went. Waiting on elevators to arrive was a pain, but we managed. The condo and furniture could use updating, but it was clean and no issues staying there. Host was very responsive to a couple things needing attention - ice maker made loud noises and washer needed fixing. Marty took care of everything and was considerate of our time. We would definitely rent this unit again.

One of the nicest beach vacations we have had. My family and friends rented 15 condos which included 85 people from 75 to 6 weeks and we enjoyed the beach and the pools. The common areas were clean. The beach accessible with a short walk. Ample parking.

Condo #601 is the best all-around vacation!

The Floor to ceiling windows in the family area, master bedroom and second bedroom were awesome. Door access to balcony from those was also wonderful. Our view from inside was almost as great as the wrap-around balcony! We enjoyed watching fun and games from it. Linens were as nice as if the owner (Marty & Beth) were there. We would come back again and again. Oh, and the kitchen was amazing stocked--large washer & dryer were a big plus!!! June 1 - 7, 2019 Hope to be back in 2020

Wonderful!!

The Lighthouse Unit 601 was wonderful! The rooms were perfectly appointed for our needs and the kitchen was just like being at home. We had everything we needed to cook and bake while there and made frequent use of the washer and dryer. The balcony was a prize point. It was absolutely beyond spacious and the view was breathtaking. As grandparents traveling with grandkids ages 2 - 9, small touches such as included nightlights were most appreciated. Marty was very kind and went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable. He was very quick to respond in all matters. We will definitely rent this unit again!

From Richmond, Indiana. We intend to spend more time at the condo in the future when we retire. For now, its only a few weeks per year and the rest of the time is available for family, friends, and soon-to-be new friends!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this place from our first visit, and were pleased to buy it from the original owners in this complex which was build in 2006. The view is breathtaking. The complex is fantastic. We very much enjoy spending time in the Gulf Shores area.

What makes this property unique

Two bedrooms have full ocean view and balcony access. Full wrap-around balcony. Awesome, unobstructed Southern view from East to West anywhere in the unit with floor-to-ceiling glass windows. Quiet end unit.
