Summer 2026 is ALMOST GONE and 2027 is filling up REAL FAST! Still looking for 2026? Contact us ASAP.

Don't forget, peak season is in swing and during peak season, we book Saturday to Saturday. So, if you're looking and don't see any availability, check to see if your stay duration falls under those parameters as that usually is the problem :) But, as always, feel free to reach out as we are always happy to help!

12BR 14BA. Casa Playa, East & West. Gulf Shores, Alabama. Great place, awesome space, nice price!

UPGRADES! New paint, new stuff, so new pictures and virtual tour too!

This listing is for Casa Playa's East & West sides together, as one great big 12BR 'house' but... better than a house since you get two of all the common spaces: two kitchens, living areas and so much more!

This combined listing gets you both sides of Casa Playa in one easy reservation — 12 BR total, joined by a hotel-style secure connecting door between the East and West sides. Only need one side? Check out Casa Playa East (6BR) or Casa Playa West (6BR) individually.

Want more? How about great internet on a wifi mesh network? An EXTRA fridge for all those shrimp and beach beverages? Easy beach access and a great price point. What's not to love?

This listing is for BOTH SIDES, with 12 bedrooms. One side perfect for your group? Inquire about 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
EACH SIDE has the following:
Main Floor N Bedroom: King
3rd Floor N Bedroom: King
3rd Floor Middle Bedroom: Queen
3rd Floor S Bedroom: King
4th Floor N Bedroom: 2 Queen + Twin Bunk
4th Floor S Bedroom: 2 Queen + Twin Bunk

Main Floor Living Room: Queen Sleeper Sofa
Main Floor Lounge Area: Queen Sleeper Sofa

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.

VIRTUAL TOUR!

WEST: https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=hkXEQFFXXcz

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). 30x18x3-5' rectangular bit of bliss!

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.

Perfect for our track team

The trip was great and the kids competed very well at the AHSAA State Track Meet! We are actually looking at bringing our Cross Country team down for a meet this year in the fall, most likely from August 20th-24th. The kids really enjoyed Casa Playa so I am planning to get on the books this week to get it reserved. We appreciate y'all letting our teams stay with you!

Fantastic Property at a great location!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property, It was super spacious and afforded us room for everyone in our party. The home matched the pictures and descriptions to a T! I would definitely recommend this property for any large families or groups. It is super close to the beach access point as well as its far enough down Beach Blvd that the traffic is minimal.

Clean. Nice pool. Perfect for brother's bachelor gathering

Had my brother's bachelor party there, it was in a great spot with close beach access. The pool was nice and plenty of room to house the 18 adults that stayed. Parking was also not an issue and was able to accommodate all of us. Beds and furniture were comfortable. Thanks again for the house for the weekend!

Great place for our family trip!

This place was a great place for our family trip. Reserving both condos worked out perfect for 30 people. Richard was very helpful with everything. We spent a lot of time in the private pool which was awesome. The beach is like a 5 minute walk. Make sure to bring beach items such as beach towels, coolers, tents and chairs.

Casa Playa Reunion

Casa Playa East & West was just what the Price family required for 2025!!!!The proximity to the beautiful beaches was perfect and the spacious pool was great for afternoon cool off.Each of our five children hosted a dinner night and the twin kitchens/ great rooms provided the necessary gathering accommodations for the family.Some of the younger set went to nearby bars by uber, and daytime activities included rental boats and fishing trips. Even visited the Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola.Great family spot!!!

Great Collegiate Soccer Trip!

Our team very much enjoyed spending the week at your beautiful home in Gulf Shores. They loved having their own pool, and the large living rooms were great for team meetings. Having 4 refrigerators was key in stocking up plenty of gatorade and protein drinks! The massive size of the house and all of the bedrooms with baths allowed our players nice spaces to rest while not feeling cramped whatsoever. We absolutely loved the trip!

Great experience!

We rented both sides of Casa Playa for a friends weekend over New Years and it was the perfect space for us! The house accommodates a ton of overnight guests, but somehow still allows for guest privacy. The kitchens were well-stocked with pots, pans, utensils, dishes, etc. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and appreciate Richard's proactive communications and professionalism! Thank you for a great experience!

Great big place. We had a great trip!

We stayed in both sides of Casa Playa (the east and the west). It was so big. 12 bedrooms and we were all able to spread out. Having 2 kitchens and living rooms, and the connecting door, was very nice. It was also nice that you could go from side to side on the main level deck. We have plenty of room for all of us, but could get away from each other too! :-) We hhope to return in the future when we all get together again, and I will look at you all for a smaller place when we come back with less of my family. Highly recommend Casa Playa and Bama Beach Houses!

Will definitely be going back to Casa Playa!

The home was spacious and clean. We had a large group and everyone was comfortable. Each room has it's own full bath, with 2 full baths in the common areas! There were 4 refrigerators and 2 kitchens with all the necessary utensils and appliances. The owner uses a managing company but still checked in on us to make sure things were good. Will definitely be going back to CasaPlaya!

Appreciated everything and would recommend staying here!

Richard's house was exactly like the pictures and was a lot of fun to stay at. We were a big group with a lot of kids and we had rented both the sections of the house and it worked great for us. The place was clean when we got there and we had plenty of advance details sent to us, so we knew what we needed and what to expect. Richard was always responsive and even when we needed maintenance for a very small issue, they came out the next business day. Appreciated everything and would recommend staying here!

Everything was just like we remembered with a few upgrades(

We had an awesome time. My aunt actually book the house last year the the week of Christmas. We had such an amazing time we wanted to book it again. Everything was just like we remembered with a few upgrades( Keurig Coffee maker and Alexia). The weather was perfect and we will book again in the future. The local management company was awesome. After we checked out, one of the kids realized they left their watch charging in the bedroom. The gave us a temporary code to enter the home and get it. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home to make lasting family memories.

Perfect for us!

Your home was beautiful and was so nice for my big family. We had room to spread out and enjoy the patio and pool area. I did let the management company know about the microwave on the east side. Never worked well. We didn't want to make anything worse so those that needed to warm something up just came over and used the west side. It wasn't a big deal for us since we didn't use the microwave much anyway. I just wanted them to know for the next guest. Other than that, the home was perfect for our needs and close to the beach. Thanks much for letting us stay at your place for the week. Many special memories made!
