When the sun, sand and surf come calling, pack your bags and head to this waterfront complex in Gulf Shores. Right on Alabama's Gulf Coast, you can't beat the location – the crashing waves and soft, sandy beaches are mere steps away, making it easy for you to come and go as you please. And the resort's array of amenities is the cherry on top. Take it easy and lounge by the pools – there are three to choose from (two outdoors and one inside), plus a hot tub ideal for post-adventure soaks. Get your blood pumping with a workout in the fitness centre, then wind down with a steam in the shared sauna. Whatever you need, be it bicycles or beach chairs, the front desk can help you out – what's more relaxing than that? The apartment isn't too shabby, either. Decorated in coastal shades and boasting breezy bedrooms with stylish en-suites, the main focal point here is the balcony. It's the perfect spot to while away your holiday, whether you're enjoying your morning coffee in the salty ocean air or sipping cocktails as the sun goes down. We also like the open-plan living space, which makes gathering together for... meals or Netflix movie nights effortless.

About Alabama
Alabama is the epitome of what you think of when you envision the American South. Spanish moss hanging from big, crooked trees that line pathways to historic antebellum homes.
