About this house rental
Welcome to Big Bama Beach House!
Guests must be at least 25 years old to book. This is a family-friendly home and is not suited for college or other groups. No house parties are allowed.
Big Bama Beach House is ideally situated just 300 yards from the beach, nestled in a quiet, family-oriented area of West Beach in Gulf Shores, 2.5 miles west of Hwy 59. Enjoy the best of both worlds with easy access to restaurants and activities while being away from the crowds. Our cul-de-sac on Little Lagoon features only 11 homes that share a pool and fishing pier. Here, you can enjoy great fishing and crabbing, with space to tie up your small boat or jet ski. Larger vessels can be launched a few blocks away at the public pier and tied up at our covered dock, perfect for relaxing and enjoying stunning sunrises and sunsets while watching the local wildlife.
With over 3,000 square feet across three floors, Big Bama Beach House provides ample space for families and friends to spread out. The home has been newly remodeled and updated, featuring large flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, a PlayStation 4 in the family suite, and a well-equipped kitchen complete with cookware, bakeware, and dishes. A charcoal grill is also available for your use, adding to the convenience and enjoyment of your stay.
The house includes five bedrooms and can accommodate up to 14 guests. There are two luxurious Primary Suites—one on the main floor and one on the second floor—each with a king bed, private bath, private deck, and large TV. The main floor suite boasts an exquisitely remodeled bathroom featuring an extra-large glass shower, a freestanding soaker tub, and beautiful tile flooring.
On the second floor, you’ll find three additional bedrooms: a large Primary suite with a private bath, a family suite with a king bed and two twin beds, and another spacious bedroom with a king bed. The third floor features a charming crow's nest with two twin beds, making it the perfect retreat for teens or older children.
With its tranquil setting and fantastic amenities, Big Bama Beach House is a truly unique destination for a memorable family vacation.

We were in town for the softball word series. We stayed with a few other families. There is plenty of room, the house was clean and perfect for multiple families. It’s in a perfect spot with a shared pool and spot to fish in the lagoon. Just far enough away from the main road but not too far for restaurants and stores. We hope to come back and stay here next year.

Great house! Lots of room to spread out and very comfortable. We had multiple families staying over the Thanksgiving weekend and had everything we needed. It's just a short walk to the beach and close to all the restaurants and shops. Perfect location.

Awesome house! The kitchen was great. Was fully stocked with everything you could ever want. Probably the best stocked kitchen of any rental we’ve ever stayed in. It has a Keurig that has both a pot and k cup option, tons of containers for storing leftovers, plenty of mixing bowls, pots, pans etc. All of the bedrooms were a great size, plenty of bathrooms, too. We had a large crew and everyone was very comfortable. They even had a beach wagon we could use for travel to the beach. Would for sure stay here again.

The house was nice, very comfortable beds and a great location. It was close to the beach and a very short walk to the pool. We loved the fishing pier. One thing we would suggest is a few umbrellas at the pool. There is little to no shade most of the day.Also, a table on the deck of the house out the front would be nice, or at least a few small tables in between the chairs. We enjoyed our week there.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. A great location on a quiet street and very easy access to the beach. The pool and pier that were in the neighborhood were great for the kids and within just a few feet of the house. Would definitely book again. Some simple toiletries and kitchen necessities will need to be purchased. It would be nice to know going into the trip some of the things that we would need to provide but overall a great week in Gulf Shores!

We loved spending a week at the Big Bama house. We had ten people with us - 3 young children and 7 adults. We had plenty of space to gather as a family and to spread out for time apart. The location to the beach was perfect. It was a short walk along a quiet side street to direct public beach access. It was also close to some walking paths to enjoy. We loved our stay at the Big Bama and would definitely come back to stay in Gulf Shores!

This location has plenty to offer with quick access to Gulf Shores, Orange Beach and much to do in the area. The house has plenty of space and is just a short walk to the beach. Come prepared to stock the house with basic amenities like toiletries, coffee & filters, paper towels, additional dish soap, trash bags and cleaning supplies. The twin beds aren’t terribly comfortable but work well for younger kids/adults. The fifth bedroom with two twin beds only is located in a smaller 3rd floor loft. It’s functional but not as ideal as the other rooms. The owners were responsive and help leading up to and during the trip. They were accommodating to our requests and very friendly!

This property is wonderful! I really enjoyed the spacious bedrooms and well stocked kitchen and all of the necessary utensils to cook with. The outdoor living area was a nice set for entertainment but did not get to enjoy it as much, but we did get to enjoy the balcony off the main living area! The property is also located in a great spot for access to the beach. I hope to stay again in the near feature, book this property you will not be disappointed; at me and my family was not 🤗

A little bit of everything
The location is 2 blocks from the beach and there is a community pool just a short walk away. The house was great for 4 different families and the kitchen was well stocked. We would definitely stay here again!

Lucy Big Bama Beach House was an excellent location and a great vacation home.
Lucy Big Bama Beach House was an excellent location and a great vacation home.
Location is great if you want both beach and lagoon for fishing/kayaking/boating. House was beautiful and spacious. Kitchen was well stocked for making meals. Current Tides property managers were very responsive to our questions. House was exceptionally clean at check in. The one thing we would have loved was a working outdoor shower (or at least a house extension on the spigot) as it was tough to get all the sand off before heading inside after long days at the beach.

Great Place to Stay!!!
This house was perfect for 4 travel baseball families. We had 13 people total and this house had more than enough room for us all. Beautiful house; short walk to the beach entrance; pier to fish from and a community swimming pool. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed for the week. Starter of soaps, trashbags and toiletries. We had a great time and have no complaints. The owner was super nice and would respond promptly.

Nice Home, Nice Size
Overall we enjoyed our stay at the Bama House. The owner responded very quickly to messages- from the time I booked the house to the time we arrived. The size of the house was perfect for 11 of us. I gave 4 stars for cleanliness because there was hair in the shower. It looked like they cleaned but rushed and just missed some spots. I have 4 stars for location and neighborhood because there are other houses on every side of you so every view was looking at another house. But the house wasn’t far from the beach access.
Bring extra toilet paper, paper towels, and garbage bags.
Again, we enjoyed our stay.

Fantastic House for Families/Big Groups
This house had it all! We were a group of 13 ranging from 4 to 62 & hailing from two different states. The house was plenty big (main bedroom with a king bed on the main floor, 3 large bedrooms on the second floor and a super cool bonus room on the top floor that our angsty teens loved) & updated with a great kitchen (even has a kitchen aid for those who like to bake which we made use of nightly) along with fantastic porches on the main and second floor.
The walk to the beach is a short one, maybe 2 or 3 minutes. It's down the strip some so the beach isn't croweded at all. After a couple of beach days we welcomed a change of pace at the community pool along with the dock/bay area that had a small beach. Pro tip : Bring some crab traps to catch your own dinner on the doc!
I would highly recommend this house as it allowed our family to enjoy a wonderful week together.

Great family trip
We loved the fact that this house had 2 master bedrooms with their own bathrooms. We all had plenty of room to spread out. The king beds were all very comfortable. The twin beds were not, but were ok for kids. Loved the fancy washer and dryer. Very nice on the 2nd floor with most of the bedrooms. House was very clean and nicely decorated. We enjoyed the deck off of the living room and would hang out on the chairs drinking coffee in the morning. The other decks we didn’t use because there is no seating on them. But there are decks off of every bedroom. The pool is a super short walk. Small pool with no shade so be prepared. The guys in our group spent a lot of time on the fishing pier. Very nice spot with comfortable seating to hang out and it is shaded. The beach is definitely walking distance, about 5 minutes, but for us older people, it was definitely hard with the heat and carrying all the stuff to and from the house. FYI, a wagon sounds like a good idea but it does not pull well on the sand. Trust us!🤣�

Gulf Shores during covid
The property was well furnished (appreciated the extras - children’s plates and bowls, crockpot, two types of coffee makers, nice variety of cooking utensils) Floor of main area could have been cleaner as crawling baby had extremely dirty knees within few minutes of arriving) but overall spacious, beautifully decorated and fit our needs well. Appreciated the cleaning products but could have used more trash bags. We traveled with hand soaps which was a good call but had to purchase more paper products. The beach wagon was appreciated also. We had taken a small blow up pool and set it in the breeze way and that was a great play area for our young ones. The pool was small and too crowded to use several times with the social distancing. Nice place and great communication anytime we reached out and asked for information.

Great Pandemic Vacay!
The property was lovely and clean. Walk to the beach is very short. Queen and King beds are great. Beds in the loft are a little squeaky (fine for really young, not picky kids). If you are trying to social distance, this isn't a great area for eating out. Really hard to find take out from the local restaurants and most restaurants had very limited outdoor seating. Beach House Grill was great for outdoor seating. Also, apparently this is jellyfish season and vinegar neutralizes stings. We didn't need it, but would have been nice to know in advance. Also, lots of water critters by the dock to check out for critter enthusiasts.

Awesome vacation
This home was just beautiful. I especially loved the kitchen, balconies and the number of bathrooms. The pull out wasn’t very comfortable but they never are and it didn’t ruin our stay. We were close enough to stores and the beach to make it very easy to access. I would definitely stay here again. We all loved it.

Beautiful home!
We had a wonderful time in Gulf Shores. The house is beautiful and well maintained. The walk to the beach isn’t bad at all. The guys would drive to drop off the beach chairs and umbrellas but the rest of us would walk! Great trip!

Perfect Beach Getaway
We loved this home! The decorations were beautiful and beachy! It was well stocked with everything that was needed and super clean. We fished every night off the pier and caught blue crabs in our crab trap. The beach was close by and there was also public parking for the beach right down the street. We would love to come again some time! Thank you for sharing your home with us!
