Hakuna Matata

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

This two-story home located in Gulf Shores is sure to please with its amazing Gulf views and beautiful sun deck! Get your fill of the sun, the sand, and the surf whenever you please thanks to your close proximity to the beach. For fun on land, take everyone to a nearby park or embark on a trail for a scenic look at the surrounding area. Golf enthusiasts will be pleased to learn there are golf courses nearby, so bring your clubs and hit the links whenever you like. After a fun day out and about, try one of the many local restaurants before heading back.

Back at your beachfront house, you'll be greeted by an open living space flooded by the gorgeous natural light coming from the abundant windows. Lounge comfortably on the furniture in the living area while watching your favorite shows on the TV or simply bask in the beautiful view of the water. When everyone gets hungry, make your way to the well-equipped kitchen to whip up a feast everyone will remember. It has enough room to make something together or you can keep the chef company by sitting at the bar there. Dine alfresco on the furnished deck to indulge in both the beach backdrop and your food. When the evening comes to a close, pick from one of the many bedrooms, four of which sport either a queen or king bed. Have the kids take the fifth bedroom, complete with an abundance of space and a TV they can watch while they settle down.

Hakuna Matata means no worries for the rest of your days. It'll be your problem-free philosophy while you're here!

Great stay

Perfect place to get away! Being just steps away from the beach and no crowd were our favorite things! The house could use a few updates, but still a great place to stay!

What A Great Place!

My family went on and on about how spacious Hakuna Matata is and wanted to come again. We loved the large deck and wrap around deck around the whole place. The kids couldn't believe the extra large bunk-bed room. And they loved the balconies above the beds! Thanks for a great place to spend our vacation! It was wonderful!

Great Place to Unwind

It’s right on the beach with all the waves that come with. Nothing more relaxing than lying in bed listening to the waves. Private balcony on the upstairs master suite. Roomy with updated kitchen and bathrooms.

Beach House

The house was perfect size for our family.. Plenty of room and beds. Kitchen was nice size. Could use new can opener and toaster. Also, could use potholders and towels. Had read this in reviews, so took some from home. Could use a decent grill and a table on the deck would be nice. But over all, would stay here again.

House needs some work

Work needs to be done on house for future guests. Air conditioner did not work upstairs and the heater didn't work downstairs. TV’s were hard to figure out, even for a couple educated computer professionals. Great location, just needs some TLC.

Wonderful stay

This house is beautiful. The location is about 5 minutes from the closest store, and far enough away from public beach areas that we had a huge amount of beach all to ourselves! In June! There are a few oddball things like no toilet paper holder in downstairs bathrooms, 2 broken ice makers (we managed to fix one), and an a/c filter that visibly needed to be changed… but the cleaning crew did an amazing job overall of getting sand out of the house and the bathrooms and kitchen felt clean. It was amazing having a washer, dryer, and dishwasher with 4 kids in the house! We loved that the whole family could sit at the table and play games, and getting back and forth to the house from the beach was so easy. Overall nothing would keep us from staying here again!

Sleeping arrangements

Just a word of caution. The description says it sleeps 20 but 12 of those are in one dorm-style room in bunk beds

Great stay!

The location from the beach and ocean was great. The size of the home and accommodations were great for our group of 11. We had an issue with the AC when we arrived but contacted Vacasa and they had someone out there that day to fix it.

Perfect spot for a large group!

We loved this house. There were 20 in our group and we used the bunk room for all the “kids” (11-23 years old) and it was perfect. Wonderful location and amenities.

Great for big families with lots of children!

The house is one of the cleanest I’ve ever been in at the beach, and I’ve been coming for over 30 years. It needs a few things to be perfect. I would definitely return to this home.
