A Wonderful Stay!

Family Vacation
Tile floors were not very clean. They had been vacuumed, but not likely wet mopped Debris accumulated in pool during the week and skimming net was broken. Park-type picnic area grill is not ideal

Great house with private pool for my family of 14!
From check in to check out we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Quiet community with beautiful beach. Logan and Michelle were available and responsive to questions. Short walk to the beach via the community boardwalk. Plenty of space for everyone! Loved it!

Great house for larger groups.
The property is great for larger groups offering a variety of bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone. The location is private with easy access to the beach. The property is located a way from a lot of the attractions and golf courses, and I would highly recommend renting a vehicle. Uber and Lyft are not a reliable means of transportation. The pool is wonderful and the living room/kitchen offers a comfortable way to enjoy everyone's company. Overall an excellent property!

What makes this property unique

Laguna Key is a gated beach front and lagoon front community at the very end of West Beach Boulevard in Gulf Shores.  The beach is to the south, the lagoon is to the north, and the Bon Secour Wildlife Refuge is to the west. It is situated in a quiet part of the beach, but is only a quick drive away from all the restaurants, festivals, and activities of Gulf Shores - it is just under 6 miles down the beach from The Hangout. The amenities of Laguna Key make it a perfect destination for family and friend vacations - beach boardwalk with gazebo, pool with bathrooms, tennis courts, pier onto the lagoon with gazebo, and quiet private interior streets behind the gated entrance.
