About this property

Summer House 806A Gulf front with amazing wrap around balcony!

Summer House 806A
We are excited to announce that the Summer House Homeowners’ Association has recently passed a $24 million construction project to take place over two years (2023-2025). This project will not only bring our buildings back to their original glory, but to a new standard. Some of the construction line items include replacement of stucco and waterproof barriers on both buildings, replacement of any compromised rebar and original waterproofing materials, replacement of all sliders with hurricane proof sliders, replacement of exterior front doors and windows, replacement of the railings on all balconies, and repainting of the entire property just to name some of the larger items that you may notice in the next two years.

Building “A”, our building, will have construction beginning on April 1, 2024 through May 23, 2025 with a smaller construction crew in June, July, and a few weeks in August in which owners will be able to rent their units without the threat of heavy construction noise and debris to interfere with summer travelers. There may be light construction noise during the summer as our building's front facade is being repaired and updated.
Should the construction timeline change, we will notify any affected bookings immediately. While we would hate to disrupt someone’s vacation, we must keep guests safe and as worry-free as possible during their time at Summer House. At the end of this project, Summer House will once again be a premier property ready to take on the next 40 years of visitors to our little piece of heaven in Orange Beach.
If you have any questions or would like an update on the construction progress, please reach out to us.

Our unit: Beautifully updated West corner unit with wrap around balcony. Plenty of space for your family to spread out and enjoy all that Summer House and Orange Beach have to offer. Most furniture, mattresses, lighting, etc. has been updated in the past 3 years.

CABLE in every room & FREE WIRELESS INTERNET!

The living area contains all you need for relaxing after the sun goes down. Play some board games with the family or catch your favorite shows on tv. Plenty of seating for all to enjoy, and a pull out sofa bed for extra sleeping space. 3 sliders in the living/dining area make patio living a breeze. Make a happy hour cocktail at our mini bar complete with acrylic stemware, so that you can enjoy the afternoons on one of the largest balconies in Orange Beach! There are slider style walk-outs in every room!

The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need for delicious family meals with stainless appliances and a commercial ice maker! We have all the comforts of home, including a coffee maker, blender, crock pot, pots & pans, tons of utensils and all the dinnerware you need so no need for paper!

The gulf front master bedroom is elegantly equipped with a King bed, new mattress, and plenty of drawer and closet space to unpack and stay awhile! En suite gives you the privacy you crave to relax after a day of sun and sand in our walk in shower.

The queen bedroom has new queen furniture and mattress, and plenty of storage and closet space to contain all of your beachwear!

The "bunk room" can sleep 4 and would delight anyone with bunk beds, trundle, and a separate single bed as well. Large closet makes keeping your clothes within easy reach super stress free!

Parking is by permit only. Each guest is allowed up to 2 guest registration certificates for parking. These are purchased through our HOA office across the street or through the guard at the guard shack for $50 per vehicle.

Not that anyone wants to do laundry on their vacation, but a full sized washer and dryer in the unit makes throwing a load of laundry in super easy!

Summer House is known for its large balconies and fantastic amenities. Enjoy our gulf front pools, indoor pool & hot tub, fitness room, sauna, grill area, tennis court, basketball area, and gulf front grassy space.

We can't wait to have you enjoy our favorite place to be!

Summer House vacation

We had a wonderful vacation! The condo was beautiful inside. We like a corner unit and also like having an ice maker. They started a nice tradition of people leaving the little extras like coffee filters and dish soap and spices… We would definitely stay here again

Traditional Spring Break Trip!

I’ve been coming to Gulf Shores/Orange Beach since I was a child and as an adult now bring my own family. It’s a yearly tradition! We typically stay in the same condo each year but this year we had to choose a new location and this condo was in the same building but just as wonderful! Check in process was simple, condo was clean and beds were comfortable! I loved that the third bedroom has a twin bed and twin bunk beds as well! Definitely recommend staying here!

Very nice

Would recommend this condo and would stay again. Condo was clean and comfortable. Owners very easy to communicate with and left good instructions for our stay. Location was close, even walkable, to restaurants and other stores. Beach was not crowded. Large porch was very nice. Didn’t make it to the indoor pool but saw several families coming and going. Outdoor pool was a favorite hang out after time on the beach.

Family Vacation

It is a very nicely decorated condo and when we had problems, the property manager quickly responded. Unfortunately we like to cook versus going out and the kitchen didn't live up to our expectations. Just needs a bit of organization and replacing things that are broken/missing/not working great. Otherwise a great property and great location!

Not bad overall.

It's a nice unit and overall it was reasonably clean. The exception was dirty floors throughout. it appeared that the cleaning crew forgot about the floors entirely. After we swept up all the sand (and there was a lot of it) the floors were still very grimy and there wasn't a decent mop provided. But overall it was clean and well equipped. The only other complaint was loud drunks in the pool typically between the hours of 1 AM and 3 AM. This happened multiple nights. The pool is supposed to be closed after 10PM and I don't understand how this can go on for hours at a time without a security person making their rounds and taking care of the issue.

Great corner unit!

Awesome corner unit, beautifully decorated, full washer and dryer, huge big deck that wrapped around the side. Had so much kitchen supplies and the best part was the separate ice maker machine which was so handy cause we never had to buy bags of ice the whole time for the coolers. Had a wonderful time! The owner Jennifer was so helpful and very quick to respond to us for anything. We will be back!! 🌴🌞🌴🌞

The cleanliness and beds so comfortable, wonderful view and location, makes this a great rental for family with younger kids. The owner/service a text away if any issues. Everything you need is on site and all shopping literally across the street! We definitely would stay again when I need only 3 bedrooms 😁👍🏼

Loved it

The condo was clean and had so many extras. Bathrooms had hand soap, there were plenty of extra blankets and pillows, commercial ice maker was awesome, bartending set was awesome and fun. Access to the beach was super easy, there was a ramp and then you only had to go down a couple steps. The pool was really nice too - plenty of seats, large pool, not crowded. My fiancé loved sitting under the gazebo at the pool. The elevators were fast and were never crowded. Parking was convenient. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this condo and owners again. Jennifer was amazing and always responded quickly.

This condo is amazing! We had such a wonderful week! The wrap around balcony that gives each room a door out to the BREATH-TAKING view of the ocean is such a wonderful thing we have never had on a beach vacation! The beds were all so comfortable!
