Back in October, I shared with you that I had been on a weekend trip to Gulf Shores, AL. What I didn’t share was where I stayed and how pretty it all was. We’ve been waiting til now, the cold January winter, to share this post and giveaway! A reader of mine, Glenda, has a condo in Gulf Shores and she offered it to me for a weekend stay and a friend and I went back in October. It happened to be stormy weather that weekend, so we didn’t see the sunshine like most of these pictures show, but it’s a gorgeous place in Gulf Shores, called The Beach Club. That’s a link to the main page and Glenda has a page for her condo, the Gulf Shores Beach Getaway.
The Beach Club is an exclusive beachfront property in the Fort Morgan peninsula of Gulf Shores. It’s down a highway and very secluded and out of the way of the main traffic areas, so you are in for a retreat feel. It has everything you would want in a resort, from restaurants, to family and children’s activities, to beautiful beaches and sitting by the pool.
The Beach Club was voted in the Top 10 for Family vacation resorts by Family Vacation Critic.
This pretty water tower alerts you that you are at the Beach Club.
It’s definitely a relaxing place to visit and stay. We loved the condo and the feel of the place, if only the weather was better for us. In the summer, I can see this place as bustling and energizing.
The entry drive to The Beach Club is beautiful and you can see the 2 towers in the distance.
The boardwalk out back of the condos take you down to the beach.
Inside Glenda’s condo, it is beautifully appointed with coastal furnishings and a homey feel. It’s very spacious and cozy.
Looking from the kitchen to the living room, they have done a great job with updating the space and making it feel welcoming.
Beach condos are fun to stay in and offer so much more than a hotel does. I always prefer a condo when I’m going to the beach.
The master suite has a nice view of the pool and balcony.
The pool is right outside the spacious balcony.
I can imagine how busy and fun this pool would be in the summer months.
The clubhouse is gorgeous too. There’s a restaurant inside, but we didn’t get a chance to eat there during our stay.
The back of the property is beautiful and is right on the gorgeous white sand beach.
Looks inviting, doesn’t it?
Glenda sent me several beautiful photos during summer season, when the resort is at its peak.
Kids activities and lots of fun things going on.
Of course, the beach is the big draw.
I can never get enough of this beautiful white sand beach on the Gulf Coast.
Sunsets are amazing on the beach.

What a fun unique giveaway! I need a beachfront getaway to take my husband and daughter for the first time since his brain injury and stroke which occurred after his final tour of duty I would like to show him that he can enjoy the beauty of the ocean and all the glorious fun at Gulfshores not only for himself but also still being a part of the fun out child will experience there now that she’s older at age seven The stress of being a full time spousal caregiver and responsibilities of being a mom means I am more than ready to enjoy the many stress busting amenities that are so abundant on the Gulfshores Not to mention all the amazing food offerings as he is such a foodie. Btw I Found ur lovely blog after searching for OOTD including boots and sweater dresses more age appropriate for myself at 40+ And so happy my google search led me here am enjoying catching up on all the past posts looking forward to the future ones too! Best regards!
I’ve been stuck at home for 13 days with the flu and it doesn’t seem to be improving. I’d much rather be stuck at a beach! So when I’ve recovered, I’d love to sink my toes into some pretty sand and inhale the pleasant scent from an ocean breeze.
My husband and I would adore a beach getaway. Our first baby is arriving in April…we are working hard to enjoy our silent nights. 🙂
