Beach Axis, East Side: 5BR 5BA Beachfront Beauty. Pool. Perfect location. Close to everything, especially the beach! Right across from Waves Grocery. Location. Location. Location! This listing is for the East side unit. Beach Axis, East!

NEW VIRTUAL TOUR. Check it out. Awesome!

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.

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.

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, check out the combined Beach Axis East & West listing!

Main Floor N Bedroom: King
3rd Floor N Bedroom: King
​​​​​​​3rd Floor S Bedroom: King + Twin Bunk
4th Floor N Bedroom: 2 Twin over Full Bunks
4th Floor S Bedroom : King

Living Room: Queen Sleeper Sofa

Please note that there ARE 5 bathrooms. The main floor BR has a bath, there are then 2 baths on each of the remaining two levels. The mystery bath that people don't see in the virtual tour is BEHIND the entry door in the 3rd level (2nd living level) south bedroom. With the entry door to the room open, you can't see the bath!

POOL
Big. Streetside. Private to the two sides of the duplex: no sharing with other places nearby. The pool is open all year. It's a big oval, 30x15x3-6'. Lounge chairs are provided around the pool.

WIFI/INTERNET
YES! We have an awesome Eero mesh network to ensure excellent wifi coverage throughout this spacious home. Spotty coverage is always an issue for big places. Sure internet may work next to the router in the living room, but what about the far reaches of the home!? That's why we installed a multi-node mesh network. And what's the internet like? It is generally solid and ran > 100Mb down the last test--sufficient for several simultaneous video conference sessions for remote work and education. Internet is, of course, an amenity and subject to service provider outages (and guests "troubleshooting" it), especially with the havoc the sand and salt wreak on cabling and facilities, no more so than any other home on the beach though, and likely better since its close in and new construction!

PARKING
There is available onsite, offstreet, parking for 4-6 cars if you use space under the home and stack well. In duplex units, please be neighborly about this.

SOAPS, TOWELS, COFFEE, GRILLS ETC ETC
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, 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 both drip coffee makers and Keurigs as well.

PETS
We do consider well-behaved canine furry friends at many locations. This requires owner pre-approval, and is subject to a pet fee (currently $250 per pet). Approval in a duplex location, especially for peak weeks, generally is only available for guests renting both sides of the duplex. Please inquire.

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

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

SNOWBIRDS! Up to 2/3rds off for off-season stays of 28 days or longer. Inquire.
Snowbirds welcome over winter! Inquire about monthly rates!

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!

Wonderful Experience at Beach Axis East

My family vacationed in Gulf Shores at Beach Axis East. The home was even better than the pictures. It was just a short stroll to the beach, pool, and restaurants across the street. We would definitely stay there again.

Great home for family beach trip.

Great home for family beach trip. We enjoyed this house so much - everyone went on and on about the location. Almost a Fort Morgan feel with quieter beaches, but close to everything you need. The owner was fast to respond regarding any issues we had. We had 9 adults and 2 children under 2 and the space was perfect. Will definitely stay again.

Beach Axis did NOT disappoint!!

This year marked our 6th year in one side or the other of the Beach Axis home. And once again it did not disappoint!! Rick and his team are top notch and take care of their customers. Very convenient location on the beach with a great convenience store (Waves) directly across the street. We will be back!!

Beautiful Home and Great Location

Beautiful home and location. There is plenty of space and everything you need for your meals. It does say there are 2 refrigerators but there is only one and it is deep. The house has a beautiful view and plenty of space. Across the street is an Ice cream store that is yummy, a seafood store and a little liquor/grocery store. The owner is amazing and answers questions quickly. I would definitely stay here again. We had a family of 11 and plenty of room.

Consistently amazing - will be booking with you again!

Everything was wonderful as always! You all are always very accommodating and informative on getting us any information we need. We really do enjoy staying at your houses. The house was great and had plenty of room for all of us. The location was perfect. No complaints here! And thank you for the cheesecake. It was delicious. I was lucky enough to get a piece of it as it was gone within a few hours! You'll be hearing from us in the future as we love the area and staying with you guys!

Incredible home for several families

We loved this house so much for our beach stay over July 4th! The location can't be beat (two miles from the gulf shores T). The house is right on the beach, and we easily walked out and set up our tent and chairs every day. The house is located on a slice of the best beaches you can get anywhere (imho). But what we loved the most about the house is that it had so many king beds, and each room has their own bathroom(!). It was amazing. There's also a cute basic market, ice cream shop, and restaurant literally right across the road. We basically didn't leave this magical house during the week. We'll be back!

Wonderful

Our trip was wonderful! We enjoyed our stay in your home. Loved being right on the beach. We loved the location so much, including being so close to The Beach House, S & S Seafood & the ice cream shop right across the street. The management company never came back to fix the towel rack but that was my bad for sending them away in the first place. Also, I noticed the mirror in the top floor master is only staying up by leaning against the lights. I looked behind the mirror and noticed that the nail was out of the wall. Thank you!

Great place!!!

The place is great. The beds were comfy, your outdoor furniture was awesome. It had everything we needed. That pool was perfect. There was a leak in the second floor door, but we reported that and they came and fixed it! It was actually from the upstairs door.
