Premier Beach House - Pool, All Beach Equipment Provided! Pets stay FREE!

Whether you're planning a family vacation, a couples' getaway, or a beach trip with your four-legged family members, Blue Crab Cottage offers the perfect combination of comfort, convenience, and location.

We had the best time during our beach trip! This condo is close to the beach, and several restaurants too and we also loved that it was right next door to the pool! We will definitely stay here again!
Our family came in from Arkansas to spend the Christmas holiday at the beach. We had an amazing trip! The home is well kept, updated, and comfortable. The kitchen is fully stocked and has any appliance you may need to make your meals. The location is great. Stores, restaurants, and the beach is within walking distance, and the neighborhood is quiet at night. All of us enjoyed our stay, and we will be back!
By far our this has become our family's favorite beach vacation home! Right across the street from the beach access, personal parking at your cottage, outdoor shower to rinse self and belongings from the beach. The cottage was super cute and had everything our family needed for vacation, from beach chairs, wagon, beach toys for the kids. The kitchen was fully stocked which made cooking dinner easy! Loved that this property is pet friendly and we were able to bring our dog.
The Blue Crab Cottage property was fantastic! Nice and clean, spacious, awesome location. Appreciated the direct communication with the owner and not having to go through a property management company. The closet was stocked with beach chairs, tents, boogie boards, wagon, etc. Staying here made our vacation effortless. The owner even went above and beyond to accommodate our request to remove any fragrance prior to our stay. Wonderful experience!
This place is an awesome place to stay!! It is very nice. Close to beach, restaurants, and others stores. Our host was very quick to answer any questions I had. I definitely will stay again.
We had a wonderful stay at the Blue Crab Cottage. It had all the kitchen items and beach items we needed. Easy walking distance with little ones to the beach and restaurants. Very clean and comfortable beach home. My kids all asked if we can come back to this beach house again and were sad to leave :)
The Blue Crab Cottage was just what it said it was it was clean & so nice furniture & beds were so comfortable . Was in such a great location to the beach . The host David is Amazing & so easy to get in touch with . He had everything we needed for the beach from chairs to umbrella’s, beach wagon& beach toys ❤️we will definitely be staying in the Blue Crab cottage again .
The host David was super easy to reach very responsive. The condo was very clean and decorated really nicely. The location of the condo was perfect it took two minutes to get to the beach that was directly across the street. Shopping and restaurants all a very short drive. We enjoyed the cactus Cantina and Lulu‘s restaurant. Would definitely stay again.
We loved our stay here. The property is conveniently located directly across from a beach access. Totally stocked with all the beach gear you could possibly need.
Beds were super comfy! Kids, husband and myself slept like a dream.
2 small pools at the Romeo properties which my kids loved!
We also loved the location next to gulf shores state park! Such a gorgeous area. Planning our next stay already.
Everything was as listed. Communication with David was exceptional and appreciated. Provided beach gear BONUS and super helpful! Improve the internet is our only negative, but not really a big deal. We already have two family members looking to book next year!
The location is perfect and so is the “cottage”! Literally a 3 minute walk to the beach. This part of Gulf Shores beach is quiet, clean and clear water (other areas seem to have more seaweed and flotsam). There are rental chairs and umbrellas available or just carry the premium stuff provided with the cottage.
Inside is very well appointed. Design and quality of furnishings were great. The open floor plan is spacious, comfortable and perfect for entertaining. Kitchen was perfect and had everything you need for an evening in (including service for 12 people).
Communication with the owner was seamless. I received entry instructions a day before I arrived. They were clear and complete. I was even notified that I could check in early since the cleaning service completed ahead of plan.
If you are looking for a beautiful location that’s quiet, comfortable and close (enough) to restaurants and entertainment, get on the list for this cottage. My wife and I will definitely be staying here again.
Blue Crab Cottage was the perfect spot for our vacation. Everything was as described and photographed. The location was within walking distance or a short drive to stores and restaurants. The walk to the beach was easy (there is a traffic light and crosswalk to get across). The owner provided detailed information prior to our arrival about many things related to the rental. We will be returning to Blue Crab Cottage in the future that’s for sure.
My family and I visited Gulf Shores for the first time in December (I know this is a little late…). However, our experience with this location was so memorable that we could not forget it. The home was extremely clean, which is what a number of reviewers commented on previously. This made a huge difference in our stay being extremely relaxing and comfortable. Also the decor, great seating and beds enhanced the stay. Great location, across the street from the beach, and the owner is very prompt when responding to any questions one may have. Hopefully the property is available the next time we visit.

Owner David Was Awesome To Work With Awesome Place To Stay Close To Beach Convenient To Shops Restaurants Everything You Need To Enjoy a Great Vacation Weather wasn’t so Good But Everything Else Was Great Would Definitely Recommend This Place 👏👏👏👏
The house was perfect. Has everything you need to sleep 6-8 people, kitchen is stocked with every item you need to cook meals. Great deck, community pool and 2 minute walk to beach. The property owner David is fantastic to deal with. First class in everything he did for us. Was always helping us find things to do and restaurants to eat at and always had a prompt response to any of our questions. Would recommend this place to anyone looking to have a great beach vacation in Gulf Shores. We will go back.
