Description
NO DAMAGE AT ALL FROM HURRICANE! Blue Crab Cottage is newer construction and located in the heart of Gulf Shores! Private beach access is just steps away. Easily walk to dining, shopping, The Hangout, and more! Private outdoor shower and storage for all your beach necessities are underneath the cottage. Cottage offers privacy with no neighbor on either side. Free parking available for 2 cars. Community pool is right outside. Snowbirds are welcome!
The Space
The Blue Crab Cottage is perfect for those who want to avoid elevator lines and lugging sandy toys up to their condo. Wash everything off using the outdoor shower and store all your beach gear in a locked storage room underneath the cottage. No parking permit required. Just one flight of stairs and you're in your home away from home. Access is through keyless lock so no worries about keeping track of a key. You'll find menus, coupons, and suggestions pinned to the corkboard by the front door. Find a place that you love? Feel free to add to the corkboard!
Blue Crab Cottage is only a couple of years old. It is by itself within the community with no neighbors on either side. It's also the very first unit as you enter the neighborhood. If you want a sense of privacy, this is the place for you. Features granite countertops, wood plank flooring, shiplap walls, and tasteful beach decor.
Love to cook? So do we, but we usually find the items supplied by most condos to be lacking or completely unusable. Not here! New pots, pans, dishware, baking sheets and more were recently added to the already overly stocked kitchen.
Deeded beach access is a very short walk (less than 3 minutes) from the cottage. A crosswalk with a stoplight makes it very easy getting to the beach. Although it's a very short walk, a beach buggy cart is provided for your use. You'll also find enough sand toys to build the biggest and best sandcastle ever! A couple of beach chairs and umbrella are also provided for you. Need more supplies? Take a quick walk down the street to shop for whatever you need.
Pet Fees: If you bring your furry family member, there is a 1-time charge equivalent to the cleaning fee.
We want to make sure you have the best vacation ever. If there is anything we can do, please let us know.

About David Spicer
From the moment we arrived in town on that very first trip, we knew that Gulf Shores was special. From the white, sandy beaches to the miles and miles of open water lagoons, Gulf Shores is a dream for any water enthusiast. It's the people, however, that make it really special. Most everyone waves and says hello in passing. They're always asking where you're from and how long you're staying. People come from all over the country which makes it a very special blend. When we were looking for investment properties, we knew a trip to Gulf Shores was in order. It didn't take long to find the "Blue Crab". Close to everything but private enough for pure relaxation. The community itself is extremely friendly and safe. We hope you enjoy the Blue Crab!

Awesome stay at the Blue Crab!
Thank you David for our awesome stay at the Blue Crab. We especially appreciated the opportunity to bring our dog on vacation and into various restaurants in the area. (For other travelers with pets we found our favorites to be The Gulf and FloraBama Yacht Club) . I personally loved the simple layout of the cottage with the public spaces (kitchen/living/dining/balcony) on the main floor so that our group could all be in the same space while pursuing different activities. The cottage was very clean and tastefully decorated with beach themed décor. We loved our stay and hope to be back to the area.
