Casa Playa, East. 6BR/side. Pool! Gulf Shores. Awesome place/value!

6BR 7BA. Casa Playa, East Unit. Gulf Shores, Alabama. Nice duplex. 6BR per side! Pool!

2023-05 UPGRADES! New paint, new stuff, so new pictures on the way and virtual tour is already up!

Looking for an very nice, upscale home to house a large group of people but you’d like to save a few dollars in the deal? This wonderful duplex has 6 bedrooms and 6 baths on each side. Want more? How about great internet on a wifi mesh network? An EXTRA fridge for all those shrimp and beach beverages? Each beach access and a great price point. What's not to love?

This listing is for ONE SIDE, with 6 bedrooms. For both sides, and 12 bedrooms, see our Casa Playa, East & West listing or just inquire. One side perfect for your group? Book our Casa Playa, East and Casa Playa, West listings for the individual units. Note, there IS a connecting door between the two sides in the living room areas. Like a connecting hotel room, it can be opened if guests rent both sides.

BEDDING
2nd Floor North Bedroom, King
3rd Floor South Bedroom, King
3rd Floor Middle Bedroom, Queen
3rd Floor Middle Bedroom, King
4th Floor South Bedroom, 2 Queen + Bunk Bed
4th Floor North Bedroom, 2 Queen + Bunk Bed
2nd Floor Living Room QSS
2nd Floor Bonus/Lounge Area QSS

ALL bedrooms have en suite bathrooms with combo shower/tubs. The 2nd Floor LR and Bonus QSS use a common bath separate from that level's bedroom. 

BEACH ACCESS
Casa Playa is located on the north side of West Beach Boulevard, directly across the street from the beach and you can see the beach! You have beach access at the 12th (3 mins, < .1 mile!) and 13th street public beaches, PLUS a large pool private to just the guests of Casa Playa. We aren’t talking about blocks to reach the beach, it’s right across the street, .1 miles to the west!

POOL? You bet!
BIG outdoor pool (shared only between the two sides).

PARKING
There is available onsite parking for at least 6 cars per side. More if you park under then home and stack carefully. Just share nice with the neighbors! 

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!

SOAPS, TOWELS, COFFEE, 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 drip coffee makers and most now have Keurigs as well. 

No smoking please. No pets. 

SNOWBIRDS! Up to 2/3rds off for off-season stays of 28 days or longer.

Great place to stay when you have a large group.

Great place to stay when you have a large group. The pool was a nice addition. Very clean and well stocked. I recommend the Bama Beach House for your large group wanting to spend time at the beach.

Nice home with lots of space

We travel with my brother and his wife. Sometimes my sister and her husband also join us for a week or so. The house was very roomy. We like to golf, play Pickleball and ride our ebikes. We saw a couple of great shows and enjoyed the relatively close proximity to everything we wanted to do. Check in was simple as well as check out. Great location

Fun holiday getaway!

Great holiday retreat! We enjoyed our stay . It was just the right amount of bedrooms and baths. I was so pleased to see it had two refrigerator which helped tremendous. The pool was enjoyed also by the brave ones. Hopefully next time we rent it will be warm. I would recommend to anyone who's looking for a fun getaway.

October fall break

Property was well maintained and close walking distance to the beach… close enough to restaurants but still great location for slower pace as traffic was light most of the week even with the Shrimp Festival

Mission accomplished!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Casa Playa East. Previously we had stayed at Casa Playa West. We love the house, the floor plan & pool. We only had one issue, and it was taken care of immediately. Thank you for everything. Our mission of making memories with our grandchildren and children was accomplished!

Amazing for our family

House was amazing for our family. Stayed in both sides of Casa Playa. The management company did a great job. Great job having two refrigerators per side, plenty of sleeping quarters. Lots of seating. If we ever need that much room in Gulf Shores again. We will for use use your home. Thanks for checking on us. Denise Bond

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Family gathering for Thanksgiving!

There was plenty of room with room to spare for the 14 of us. The view was nice. The house was spotless. Our host Richard was friendly and answered our questions within a few hours. Looks just like the photos and matched the description. The beds and pillows were a bit hard for my liking. But the memories we made there at Thanksgiving were priceless!

Casa Playa East

The home was exactly what we needed for our family. Wish it were closer to the public beach access area. The kitchen could use a pantry. When you are staying with a large family, groceries have to go somewhere and there was no space to store and organize groceries. The mattresses on the main floor and 2nd floor need replacing, but we managed. Overall, kudos to this lovely home. With these few adjustments, I recommend this vacation home to any family looking for a place at Gulf Shores.

Home away from home!

Your home was great! We had such a good time and your home felt like home during our stay. We had a little trouble with the A/C on the second floor but the property management company had someone out there within hours of calling. What we appreciated most was having all the silverware, plates, pots and pans that we needed. Although we did have to buy a blender to make our margaritas, as the one there was cracked and leaking. Still please don't take that as a complaint. We really enjoyed our stay. Hope to have the whole family together again soon and we will be staying here!
