🥳 Early Bird Sale! 🥰 Beach Axis, West. 5BR Beachfront Beauty. Pool. Perfect location.

Beach Axis, West
1203 West Beach Blvd

2023-07. Flash Sale: Vacation like its 2019, in Summer 2024. Dropped rates to 2019, pre-pandemic levels. First 3, then I change them back! Pricing is already factored into the Vrbo displayed prices. Figured everyone needs a holiday week break! Happy 4th!

2023-07-07. Brand new virtual tour. Check it out!

Beach Axis deck is as close to the gulf as you can get in the area. Folks LOVE LOVE LOVE its gulf front decks! Most nearby units have their pool behind the homes, putting the pool between you and the beach. Not Beach Axis. Beach Axis' pool is streetside. Sit on the deck, enjoy the sunset, while most neighbors are behind you! How nice is that! The pool is private to the two sides of the duplex—not shared with any other home.

New listing. Recently listed the two sides separately as well as the whole place (10BR/10BA!) as well, see VRBO listing https://vrbo.com/1879290 for both sides together!

Virtual Tour recently added. 3D TOUR IS available for the east side unit (listing 1678783). The east and west side are similar in layout, bedding, and accommodations, except of course they are mirror images (flipped east/west) of each other and vary by style details.

Beach Axis, West: Perfect location. Close to everything, especially the beach! Right across from Waves Grocery. Location. Location. Location! This listing is for the West side unit.

Close to everything, especially the beach! Right across from Waves Grocery, Ice Cream shop, Seafood shop, and the Beach Kitchen Bar and Grill. What more could you ask? Location. Location. Location!

Plus this is one of my guests' favorite places. Lots of repeat visitors each year! Great price for a recently completed redone beachfront duplex. RIGHT ON THE BEACH. Beach Axis is completely furnished and professionally decorated. It has a fully equipped kitchen including a dishwasher and microwave.

One side perfect for your group, then book my Beach Axis East and Beach Axis West listings for the individual units. Take one or both, you'll have a great stay either way! For both sides, inquire as I do not (yet) have a combined listing up!

Beach Axis, East https://vrbo.com/1678783 5BR (duplex, can be 10BR)
Beach Axis, West https://vrbo.com/1777390 5BR (duplex, can be 10BR)

​​​​​​​
Since we have a higher proportion of guests recently who are new to vacation homes, I wanted to mention a few things that may be new to guests who normally stay in hotels or resorts rather than a private home so they are not surprised. As with most beach homes in the area, the local mgt co provide what they call a "starter supply" of soaps, toilet paper, and paper towels, etc. Enough for the first night to get you going! Please plan to bring or purchase additional supplies, and any cleaning or pantry supplies you may need, or to make a quick run to the store (or have it delivered!). You will want to bring beach towels or beach chairs as well. Because mgt cos will not generally support them, grills are not provided, except where specifically noted, though they are sometimes inherited from prior guests: your mileage may vary on this, and we usually assess and then go snag a small charcoal kettle when we come down ourselves. Also of note: at many locations, you may find the bunk beds (and certain other beds) are not fully made--instead a bedding pack is provided. This is a common practice for the local management companies, which is both green (if the bedding is not used, it doesn't have to be laundered) AND more sanitary--housekeeping does not have to crawl on the bunks and so on to make the beds. Also also... all our homes have drip coffee makers and most now have Keurigs as well.

That’s it! We think you’ll haver a great stay in our home. Reach out and let us know how we can help!

No smoking please, but feel free to eat lots of shrimp (highly recommend steamed cajun from the shop across the street!), bask in the warm sun, and have a great time!

Loved,loved,loved the house and the location!

We had a fabulous time! Loved,loved,loved the house and the location! We're used to staying in townhomes on the beach and this has been one of the most comfortable and certainly the closest to the beach. We like to do a lot of our own cooking and the kitchen was very well stocked. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay! Cindy

We had a great 3 days of sun and surf then Sally Came and shook the house and left a mess and no power or water. So we could not wait to leave after that. We loved the house and location. I would recommend this home. We would stay again but not during huriccance season.

Perfect location

The home is the perfect location and we had plenty of room. I would definitely be back with less kids more adults because the pool is not too little kid friendly but the older ones enjoyed it. The only issue was the ice maker never made ice and a few of the lights were out. The main one was the front steps. The beds were comfy. The kitchen could use a few updates on the pots and pans side but I am a snob cook so I'm very picky (lol).

Location, Location, Location

Property was located right on the beach. There were 4 bedrooms with king size beds. Another bedroom contained two sets of bunk beds. The lower bunks were full size beds. Additionally there was a set of bunk beds in one of the king size bedrooms if you had a small child that you needed to keep an eye on. Bonus feature was a wet bar with an ice maker to fill up your cooler daily for the beach. Beach view was great! Nice picnic area underneath house where you could sit and enjoy lunch. If you have a large group staying here, I would recommend bringing a cooler to store your canned drinks free up space in the refrigerator. Good supply of dishes, glassware, and pans available in unit.

Gulf Shores Stay

Our group of 15 had an awesome time at Gulf Shores and highly recommend this property. Our 4 family groups each had plenty of room in their own space. The beach was just a short walk out the back door and when we weren’t playing in the gulf waters, we did spend some time each day in the pool. Even though it was a “shared” pool with the neighbors in the other side of this condo, we never were actually at the pool at the same time. There was plenty of parking space for our 3 large SUV’s. There was also a good area at ground level under the home with a picnic table and chairs and space to store our beach toys with a water faucet and hose for rinsing off our sandy shoes and bodies before entering the house. The kitchen was well supplied for our cooking needs and the washer/dryer was great to have available and was used almost daily. There is a local management company that is available should any problems or needs occur, but we never had a reason to contact them thus I only gave 1 star for communication with them.

Amazing place. Great trip!

Location was perfect! Beach Axis was close enough to stores and bait shops and local restaurants but far enough away from the traffic and chaos that is Orange Beach and Gulf Shores. The sand was footsteps away with the pool and hot tub close by for a change of scenery for the kids. The house had everything we needed and enough space for our group of 13 to not feel like we were all over each other. I can't wait for our next vacay! BamaBeachHouses was a great host, very responsive and easy to get a hold of! [🤗 Yay! Thank you so much Alicia. Happy to hear you all had an amazing time at Beach Axis's west unit! 😎 Shoot us a note if you have any suggestions or when ready to lock in a return trip! Thanks again! 🙏

First family getaway

Very pleased with property. It was just as advertised. OurA/C stopped working on our second day. Problem addressed within an hour which resulted in a major installation for which the crew worked several hours. Kitchen was totally equipped for any occasion. Front door knob needs fixing but it didn’t spoil my rating. Most of the will we weren’t able to get in the ocean due to wind but that is no fault of the rental. Very satisfied

We love our "Snowbirding" at Beach Axis

We had a great month! Your home is the perfect location. We always seem to visit "The Wave" for a few items. We also like the walking path on the other block. It's nice to have extra bedrooms so our son, niece and two friends can visit at various times. I went ahead and booked for 2025 through bama beach houses. Thank you so much for keeping this affordable for us!

Location, Location, Location

We had a great time! We loved that the house was in such a great location and was so close to the beach. I loved how nice the picnic area underneath the house was. It was so nice to have so much room to store our chairs and umbrellas. A really great bonus was the separate ice maker. We loved that feature because we could fill our coolers for the beach each day and enjoy our snacks and drinks all day on the beach while they stayed cold. You really should highlight that bonus feature of the home. We did take two Yeti coolers to store our canned drinks and waters in during our stay since you did warn us that the refrigerator would take some time to cool off a lot of drinks. Thank you for warning us so we could be prepared. We visited the ice cream shop across the street at least twice and it was so good. We also ate lunch at the Beach House directly across the street and had their fish tacos. My daughter in law said they were the best she had ever had. We went to Bahama Bobs twice and loved the coconut shrimp. However, my husband's favorite place was Big Mike's Steak house near Orange Beach. We went there twice for steak.... Everything was clean and orderly when we arrived. Hope you have a great week!

Best beachfront!

Best beach front! Our Christmas gift to our adult children, spouses, and 5 grandchildren was amazing. Steps from the beach, we had the luxury of coming from the beach, to the house, to the pool. Each family had their own private floor with en-suite bathrooms. All bedrooms had balconies overlooking either the beach or pool. The open floor plan living/ kitchen area made visiting perfect. We were close enough to the action for access to restaurants, shops, and entertainment, yet far enough for a peaceful stay. We all had a blast: memories to last a lifetime

Perfect covid getaway!

We could not stay in Chicago any more. We had to get out. And Beach Axis, and the owner Rick, were so nice and accommodating. Seafood boil on the beach so much better than snow at home!
