About this house rental
Beach Axis, East & West
1203 West Beach Blvd
Beach Axis, East & West: 10BR/10BA. Perfect location. Sleeps 36. Pool! Close to everything, especially the beach! Right across from Waves Grocery. Location. Location. Location!
2024-01. Flash Summer 2024 Deal. Vacation like is 2019! Save $1500 or more. Be one of the first 2 to book Beach Axis, and you will be priced at 2019 pricing! Pre-pandemic deal as we take over managing these two great beachfront places! Pricing on VRBO will ALREADY reflect this deal, and you can see it as a line item discount on the book now page. Act fast!
This listing is for BOTH sides of the duplex together. Like having a 10 bedroom but with two of almost everything: kitchens, living rooms, more! Plus, a little bit of separation since even though you will be next door to each other, you won't all be in one place. When renting both sides, guests may unlock the connecting door on the deck to allow for access between the two sides without going up and down the stairs from the main entries.
New virtual tours June 2023. For Virtual Tours, check out the individual listings. Or inquire and we can send those links.
This is one of my guests' favorite places. Lots of repeat visitors each year! Great price for a recently redone beachfront duplex. RIGHT ON THE BEACH. Full kitchen, living room, and laundry per side.
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!

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 per side 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.
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.
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!

House is big, fully stocked with everything you need and just steps from the beach and restaurants. Loved it!
5.0 / 5.0
The trip went perfectly with no hiccups. Beach axis is a lovely home and we had a fantastic time. The location can't be beat. We are eyeballing a stay at Wit's End (a little more room for growing families) and will reach out directly if/when we decide to pull the trigger. Thank you!
5.0 / 5.0
Host was very responsive. House was in great condition. We needed the door between the house unlocked because we had rented the entire house. We could not get it unlocked. Richard had his maintenance team to come get the door open for us. It made our stay a little nicer. My only complaint was that the house was not equipped with chairs, umbrellas or tents. We had to go buy our own and leave them at the property when we left. It's the first house we ever rented that didn't have those items available. Other than that we had a great time and would recommend!
[😁 Thanks Amy! Happy to help with the interlocked doors on the deck. Glad everything was in great condition, and that you loved my Beach Axis! As mentioned in the listing (and the Bama Beach Houses FAQ and mailings), most places don't provide 'beach stuff' both because of how hard it is to keep up and because guests very frequently 'lost' it from the Leave Only Footprints guys, so we opt to not provide, though we don't remove things guests leave... and I do what you do... assess when there and just go get a few things if I really need it. Usually donating to the cause at the end. Again, thank YOU so much for staying in my place. Please don't hesitate to DM me or BBH if you have any suggestions about my place, support, communications, or when ready to lock down the return trip! Happy to honor the bounceback deal too! Thanks again!]

Every year we take 7 kids and their spouses along with grandchildren which was 9 this year on a vacation somewhere. We've done cruises and mostly beach vacations. This year in Gulf Shores at this property was probably one of the best so far. The house which we used both sides was great for our family. Clean and very well decorated. Loved being right on the beach. We had our very own pool. And across the street we used the fish restaurant twice for carry out and it was by far the best fish we had while in Gulf Shores. I also took the girls on Tiki Hut Cruise out of Zeke's Marine with captain Chris. We had a great time. Did the 3 hour bay tour. Saw dolphins and anchored at an island and met some wonderful people. Also, across from our house was Waves a convenience store which had anything you would need. And an attached liquor store. There was also an ice cream shop that was always busy. But had delicious ice cream. Some of them served in mason jars. Would definitely recommend this house and would love to go back sometime.

We had a wonderful trip. The home was perfect for us and we had lots of space to spread out. It was nice to have all the rooms but to also be a little separated too. We loved the pool being on the road side so we felt alone right on the beach when out back. Having the grocery and stores across the street was very convenient too!

Nice place. Could not be closer to the water!
5.0 / 5.0
We loved out stay. We had both sides of Beach Axis. One thing to note (and they do tell you this in the listing) is that there is no connecting door inside. However, the decks are connected so its easy to get from side to side. And those decks... wow. The few is wonderful, and you are so so close to the water. Closer than anyone else nearby. We hope to return in the future!

Loved this rental right on the beach! We rented both sides of this duplex for our entire family (19 adults, 7 kids). Same setup on both sides, 5 bedrooms/5 bathrooms each side. King beds for many of the bedrooms. Loved that each bedroom had it own designated bathroom! Saw dolphins every day and kids went crab hunting on beach every night! Truly enjoyed our stay! Location is great and close to a great restaurants and stores! Management company very responsive to any issues you have during your stay (very important!)
