About this property

Fort Sun, East. Gorgeous 7BR Beachfront. Extra fridges. Private Pool! Sleeps 24.

Fort Sun, East Unit
2402 Ponce de Leon

7BR 5.5BA. Beachfront duplex. Extra fridges. Pool! Accommodates 24, 48 in both sides!

BRAND NEW VIRTUAL TOUR POSTED for both sides. Check it out. Latest art is the virtual tour. Images to follow soon.

This listing is for ONE side of a 2x7BR duplex. Nice big beach. Sleeps 24 per side. Private pool PER SIDE, sheltered under the home. No sharing with the other side. HUGE wide open beach area! You can also stay in the other side, or both sides together for 14 bedrooms and double of everything else! Connecting door on in the living room areas for guests renting both sides.

Located beachfront in Fort Morgan. Sleep a whole crew. Save! Fort Morgan is a deal with 7% less taxes and more affordable rates. Same great beaches as Orange Beach and Gulf Shores. Less $ and less people! Also, less rules! You CAN leave your stuff out overnight / longer and not worry about the Leave Only Footprints beach patrols in GSOB which WILL take your stuff never to be seen again (of course, leaving anything is subject to some risk, but its guaranteed to be gone in GS or OB!).

7BR 5.5BA. Beachfront duplex. Extra fridges. Pool! Accommodates 24, 48 in both sides!

Fort Sun East side sleeps 24 people in 7 Bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms (5 of which are FULL baths!). The unit is well accommodated, and high accommodating:

BEDDING:

4th Floor N Bedroom A: Queen

The homes share a deck that takes you down to the expansive white sand beach. Plenty of room for beach volleyball or whatever moves your group!

A secure, interconnecting doorway allows large groups to use both sides of this lovely home to host up to 48 people!

Located on Fort Morgan, Fort Sun is close to many restaurants, golf courses, and other things to do, feels away from it all (but is only a short drive to all the hubbub on Gulf Shores itself), and is often a more cost-efficient choice for those who seek something a little more laid back. Plus, as an added bonus, our Fort Morgan vacation homes are not currently subject to the same restrictions on setting up umbrellas and other amenities overnight as those in Gulf Shores itself.

No smoking please, but feel free to eat lots of shrimp, bask in the warm sun, and have a great time!

Christmas Vac

It was fun, family enjoyed themselves. Great location beach wise. Only downfall, how bedrooms were laid out and not much living space/ (size of living room) for a large family. All in all great place.

2024 Vacation

Our large group found your home very accommodating & made our week enjoyable. We enjoyed being a few steps from the beach and activities were not far away. We were fortunate for such beautiful weather. We would truly love to revisit for another vacation.

Very enjoyable vacation at Fort Sun

Our stay in your beach house was overall very enjoyable. We loved the easy beach access and enjoyed the pool. We also loved that we didn't have to worry about putting the trash cans on the road, and that we didn't have to do much cleaning up to leave. We were a little dismayed that access to two of the bedrooms was only through other bedrooms. We worked it out, but I can imagine that for some families this could be a problem. Again, overall a very enjoyable vacation. Thanks!

Perfect Place for a Relaxing Getaway

Wonderful place with room enough for our whole family. Excellent location right on the beach. The private pool was awesome, and we spent our whole trip going back and forth from pool to beach. Would definitely stay here again!

looooved the private beach and pool outside the door!

Perfect stay! The house was perfect for our three families! We loved the privacy each family had in their rooms. We also looooved the private beach and pool outside the door! We are already looking to rebook for next year!

Nice place. Highly recommend!

Love the sheltered pool. Beach was so so nice. We actually really liked the "family suites" layout for our gang. That worked really well! Highly recommend!

Another great stay!

Fort Sun was as described and was a great fit for our extended family. Plenty of room. Views were awesome and the beach is a short walk right off the back of the house. The owners are kind and easy to communicate with--we have stayed in several of their places! Highly recommend!

Family Reunion

We had a group of 11 adults and 4 children under the age of 4 and there was plenty of room! The location is perfect for a large group! Right on the beach and beatiful view from the porch! We loved this house and had a fantastic time.

Great New Years in Fort Morgan

Right on the beach. And the beach is wide open too with not many people. Great way to ring in the New Year! Wish it had a heated pool. Would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Rick Goldsworthy

Host profile image
Instructional designer. Behavior change researcher. Father of 3. Teacher. Soccer coach. Hoosier. I'm interested in why people do the things they do, what we can do to change those things so that folks live happier and healthier lives, and how technology can help. Plus, well, I love Gulf Shores!

Why they chose this property

My wife's family have traveled to Gulf Shores and Orange Beach Alabama for decades. I became a tag along in the late 1990s, so a Gulf Shores guy by marriage. One thing led to another and we ended up a several large, family-friendly, large group friendly, places along the Gulf.

Why this one? BIG beach. White sands. Pristine. Lots of space to spread out. Great layout. Private pool (per side). And a great value since taxes much lower here!

What makes this property unique

If you want a lot of beach space, and the beach to be awesome white sands, this is the place. Fort Sun has enough room for a couple volleyball sets if you so desire, and you can leave them up out here because it is not subject to the GSOB rules that require you to bring everything back in each day. Tents anyone?! Come have fun in the sun!
