Beachfront at The Salty Pelican, Sleeps 16, Plunge Pool, Fort Morgan Beach
Wake up to the sound of gentle waves and your toes in the sand at this true beachfront escape, set directly on a private stretch of Fort Morgan’s pristine shoreline. Step off the spacious wooden deck and follow your own path straight to untouched, sandy beaches—flip‑flops optional.
From sunrise coffees to sunset cocktails, every moment is framed by sweeping Gulf views. Settle into the provided loungers and watch dolphins glide by as the tide rolls in. Take a dip into plunge pool to cool off. Or spend your days nearby sailing across turquoise water, reeling in the catch of the day, snorkeling vibrant shallows, golfing all year long, or renting jet skis for a little thrill.
Inside, this expansive coastal retreat is designed for effortless relaxation. Five beautifully appointed bedrooms—featuring a king, multiple queens, doubles, and a cozy twin—ensure everyone finds their perfect place to unwind after a day in the sun.

The views and beach access were spectacular! The house was perfect for our family of 12! It was as beautiful as the pictures in the listing. The owner was immediately responsive- we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return!
Such a perfect layout and wonderful beachfront property in the Fort Morgan area of Gulf Shores. Owner was very attentive when a couple of issues occurred. Our family loved this Beach House and made wonderful memories!!
We couldn't have asked for more for our stay at the beach. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, and the kitchen and living area are large enough and well-equipped. Being able to walk out the back door and being right at the beach was amazing for the whole group.
The property was incredible and perfect for our family! The checkin and checkout process was clear and easy! The communication with the owner was above and beyond. We always received a quick response and anything needed was handled quickly! We would definitely stay here again!
We throughly enjoyed this property. The host was excellent. Right on the beach and child friendly. We had 5 children 3 and under. Would definitely go back
We had the most amazing vacation together as a family! We made wonderful memories together and enjoyed every minute. The house was so nice and clean. We loved the space and the pool! We have already been talking of our next trip back!
We enjoyed our stay ! The location and convenience to the beach was perfect ! Beds were super comfy but we did feel like the house could use a good deep clean . I realize it’s peak season and turn around time is short but baseboards and walls could use a good wipe down as well as cleaning under all furniture .
Second time at this house and it’s a great find. Overall, the house is great. A lot of space for family dinners and movie nights, with plenty of beds/rooms for everyone. So close to the beach and nice secluded location.
This little gem was perfect for our crew of 14 including 5 littles 5 and under. The double queen beds were perfect for the families and the dipping pool was just the right size for the kids. Really well appointed! Tons of chairs, toys, tents, etc for your use.
We were here with our children and grandchildren and had a fantastic vacation. It was perfect for all ages. We loved having the pool and the beach was just steps from the house. The kitchen had all the necessities. The beverage fridge and ice maker were perfect to have . Beds were very comfortable. We would definitely stay again!
This house was wonderful for a family or a group. The rooms are well laid out, and the noise from one room to another is minimal. The location is outstanding, and everything that was in the listing was an honest, perfect depiction of what we found. The owner were very helpful and answered all the questions I had. We’ll definitely be back.
We had a fantastic stay at Salty Pelican. The location is wonderful. Close to Sassy Bass and Tacky Jacks restaurants. We enjoyed being directly on the beach. The kids could go to and from the beach easily. The little pool ended up being a favorite for the kids. The kitchen is well stocked. We also enjoyed the family room being large enough for our family to relax and play games. We are looking forward to returning. Thanks for sharing your home.
We had total of 8 and this house fit us all. The beds in this house are very comfortable. The location and the private beach is amazing. The house had everything you need. The pool was nice to sit in and just relax after a long day at the beach. Shae was awesome to work with and she respond quickly to questions. I will differently be renting this house again for sure. It's the best.
Family vacation with 8 adults and 3 children ages 7 to 9. The house was perfect for us, just steps from a beautiful private beach area. The pool was small but the kids loved it. Had an issue with the washing machine caused by a previous guest. The host immediately let us know and even though it was Memorial Day weekend, was able to rectify the situation with no inconvenience to us whatsoever. Will definitely be returning!!
We had the best time this last week at this house!! Perfect set up for a big group with ours ranging from 6 years old to 56 years old! House was exactly as listed and so beautiful! We did notice the pool wasn’t working correctly so I messaged the owner and she called me within minutes and had the pool guy there that same day to fix it! We will definitely be booking this house again in the future!
We enjoyed our stay and the location and weather were great!! Recommendations….the kitchen was poorly equipped (no pot holders, the knives were dull), lack of comfortable outdoor furniture, weak WiFi reception, insufficient towels and wash cloths (found others on last day left in washer) hot water heater alarm kept going off during the night). Did contact owner and they responded quickly.
The house was awesome! It had everything we needed plus so much more. The beach was at our doorstep. Great living area big enough for our 10 adults and 6 children. The walk-in showers were nice. Plenty of beach chairs and accessories. Great location. Because there were no closets in the bedrooms, it would have been nice to have a few hooks for hanging clothes. Well stocked kitchen, but we missed the can opener, measuring cups, etc. in the island drawer until late in the week because it didn’t have a handle. It didn’t look like a drawer. All in all, a great week!
This property has potential, but needs attention. The house was not clean, the AC upstairs stopped working, and there were visible issues with the house. The thermostats kept kicking back to high temps and we were hot all week. But!! Can’t beat the location, the beach is beautiful and not crowded in that area, the owner was easy to get in touch with and was responsive to the issues we had.
We loved this house! Very clean and everything about it was wonderful. We loved being right on the beach. The owners were very good with communication also! And the extra beach toys and beach towels were very nice to have . 10/10 !!!
The house was just as listed and very well stocked. Beds were all comfortable and being right on the beach was perfect!! Also the host was very responsive everytime
The only few things I had a slight issue with is that the bathrooms in the rooms do not have a lock. They are sliding doors and very noisy when you open and close them which sometimes woke up my kids. The next would be the amount of stairs which I know can not be fixed, however climbing 3 floors after a long day does get you tired. Other than that the home was very clean and very nice. gorgeous view of the Gulf as well. This would definitely be a place we would consider again.
