2025-06-03. Yay! New Virtual Tours of both sides of Pearl, plus the two sides in one big tour! The tours are the latest greatest! HDR photo updates to follow. Nice place! https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=B2sQX4QZKxg
REVIEWS? Absolutely! This 5 star place has been on VRBO for a while as the separate sides (VRBO links at end of description). Lots of love. Check them out!
This listing is for both the east and west sides of Pearl, together! Lots of space for everyone. Its BIG! And two of everything, including elevators... well, not two of the fridges, actually FOUR! :-) Connecting door in the living room areas! Nice. Togetherness for a LOT of people, but some space and separation too!
We have the Pearl East, the Pearl West, or you can book them together as a 20BR as the Pearl East & West!
The Pearl is a really awesome beachfront duplex vacation home in Gulf Shores, Alabama. Is the Pearl on West Beach a big vacation home!? You know it! Is it fabulous? You bet! Should it be your next favorite place to stay in Gulf Shores? Absolutely! (If you act soon enough to get it... it goes away quickly every year!).
How big? 10 Bedrooms big PER SIDE. Sleeps 28 EACH SIDE!
That's big! In 8 kings and 4 sets of full-single combo bunk beds (a full bed underneath a single!). King beds. Big! And none of that sleeper sofa stuff to make it 28. Its 28 in beds, not pullouts. And, no, there are no sleeper sofas anywhere at The Pearl. Need to sleep more than 28? Take both sides of this huge duplex, and 56 people can stay comfortably, and in style! Or check into our other really big vacation houses, because we surely have the perfect size for you!
Main Floor Bedroom: King with private en suite bath 3rd Floor N Bedroom: King with private en suite bath 3rd Floor N Middle Bedroom: Two Twin over Full Bunks with bath off hall 3rd Floor S Middle Bedroom: King with private en suite bath 3rd Floor S Bedroom: King with private en suite bath 4th Floor N Bedroom: King with private en suite bath 4th Floor N Middle Bedroom: Two Twin over Full Bunks w/ bath accessible from hallway (shared with Middle King) 4th Floor Middle Bedroom: King w/ bath accessible from hallway (shared with N Middle Bunks) 4th Floor S Middle Bedroom: King with private en suite bath 4th Floor S Bedroom: King with private en suite bath

TWO OR MORE OF MOST APPLIANCES PER SIDE! TWO of the essentials on EACH side! BIG. With not one but two refrigerators. And, not one but two dishwashers too! Because when you are big: eat, drink, wash, repeat! It's better with two! Need ice? It's got icemakers, and not just on the two fridges! Clothes, swimsuits, towels? Of course it has a really big washer and dryer! In fact, one set per floor! Seriously.
ELEVATOR! How about accessibility? Elevators! One per side. Hoofing it up three floors can be hard. Why not an elevator?! Yes, the Pearl on West Beach has one of those too! And bathroom tweaks too. The bath on the main level has a floor roll in capable shower, just in case!
POOL? You bet! Of course! Huge pool for the sole use of the duplex. Big. Great place to lounge, or head under the home for a break from the heat, or on one of the many decks! All.. BIG! AND its heatable. Really big. In the vicinity of 14'x35′ big. Wow! Deck? Yup, covered and uncovered. We literally have you covered, when it comes to a deck! And its private to the two sides of our duplex, not shared with anyone else in the area! Heatable too! Added a propane gas pool heater, so YES the pool is heatable to a maximum of 82-84' (the high side of recommended rec pool temps) to take the chill off! This service is by request in advance with a nightly surcharge that varies by season and is per night for length of stay (the 12 month range has been $65-85 depending on season) gas is expensive right now, this does not actually recoup the cost!). Simply request the pool be heated any time after making the reservation and any time up to at least a few days before check in so we can get it on before you arrive. See our FAQ about heatable pools too. The pool is beachside, in the sun, with an expansive deck area around it, PLUS a nice shaded and sheltered area to escape the heat, right under the home. Nice!
BEACHFRONT? Absolutely. The Pearl on West Beach, is RIGHT on the beach. Nothing but sand between you, your guests, and the water (well, sand, and the pool!).
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 rock solid and ran > 250Mb 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!
PARKING? Of course! All off street You can park 8-10 full size vehicles in front of the Pearl.
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 unless specifically listed, 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 both a drip coffee maker and a Keurig as well.
Come Stay with us at the The Pearl on West Beach at 1037 West Beach Boulevard, Gulf Shores Alabama!

Labor Day Vacay
We rented both sides of the Pearl so we would have 20 bedrooms for our really big family gathering for Labor Day. It was PERFECT. Lots of room for everyone, and plenty of space to spread out too when needed. We LOVED the pool and beach too. Thank you all so much for sharing your home with us! You have a truly beautiful place in a beautiful location!

Moved on up to Pearl
Had a great time last year at Emerald (the 12 bedroom in Cottages at Romar) but needed more space so upgraded to the Pearl for our holiday trip this time around. Two sides of a home, each with 10 bedrooms. Each with huge kitchens and living rooms, and each with an elevator. So much space! And having the pool heated is great for our Christmas trip!

would highly recommend the Pearl to anyone especially a large group.
This is the second time that our family has rented the east and west side of The Pearl and it was amazing again. The home was spotless, beds and linens were very comfortable, pool crystal clear, supplies in the kitchen were wonderful in both the condition and the selection. We had ample room for our entire family. The communication with the maintenance company was easy and their response was immediate. I would highly recommend the Pearl to anyone especially a large group.

"Christmas" at the Beach
5 stars! We hold our family Christmas in early December each year in different places on the beach, and chose Gulf Shores, and the Pearl, this year. We did NOT choose wrong. It was wonderful! We set up the tree and more in one side, and used the other for daily meals and prep for the "big day." The heated pool was a hit too, so glad we opted into having that--so worth it! Thanks for a wonderful holiday celebration this year! I would be happy to recommend you and the Pearl to anyone who asks.

Could not have picked a better place
Your house was great. I have a large family six brothers and myself and we come from a farming background. We had a total of 41 people... a large family and we could not have picked a better house. The pool was a godsend as we have eight kids under the age of six and they tire of the beach pretty easily. Since our group was so large we cooked a lot and the house had everything we needed. The management company was great as one of the TVs was not working and they exchanged it immediately. Thank you for having us!

Fall trip to the Gulf Shores
Pearl was perfection!!! Perfect for our group size, perfect for cooking and hanging out, and the beach and pool... perfect too! We had the best time. One thing to be aware of, there were several lights out under the home (the orange overhead 'turtle' ones) so you might want to have those replaced--I did not report it. Have been recommending Pearl and BamaBeachHouses to everyone! Thank you for allowing us to stay. Not sure how many of us will be able to come back next year but we did reserve one side for sure!
[Thanks so much Anne! I very much appreciate your kind words. Thank you for rebooking too. If you decide you need the other side... hopefully it will still be open, and I'll get it set up directly and with a little extra lovin' too! 😉]

Wonderful wedding at the Pearl
Everything was Wonderful!! As you may or may not know, my daughter was getting married at the beach in front of your beautiful home and we needed a house that could hold the wedding party and family. We had some issues such as the air conditioning not working on the top floors of the house and the management team sent someone out, that night around midnight, and had it back in working order. I was totally impressed! So, my experience with the house and the management was Excellent! The thing that happen could have been MAJOR issues, but your management teams took care of them quickly and efficiently and I was able to enjoy my daughter's wedding! Pearl was perfect for the wedding and reception. Strung lights and had white tableclothes on tables under the home. I can't relay how appreciative we are. Thank you so much! I will send you some pictures.

We stayed at The Pearl (East & West) to gather for a family reunion and had an incredible week! The property truly served all our needs and then some! The great accommodations, the pool and the beach access provided a very relaxing and enjoyable time together. The location was ideal for venturing out to the many sites and fun time venues Gulf Shores has to offer! We will absolutely be back for our next reunion!

Great week at the beach
Great trip. Clean. Big. We really had a nice time. Thank you.
The house is in a great location with plenty of room for our group of 24 adults. Only complaints would be the carpet in the bedrooms are very stained. Carpets need to be removed and replaced with some other type of flooring. The refrigerators need to be replaced due to broken shelving.
