Romantic Retreat | Walk to Beach, Swim, Relax

☀️ Please note that a lease agreement and security deposit are required to complete your booking.
🦮 Pets are welcome with a $100 per pet fee (max 2)

Welcome to Nauti Mermaid, your Gulf Shores retreat where the beach is just steps away and relaxation begins the moment you arrive. This thoughtfully appointed condo is perfect for two guests with pets welcome, featuring upscale furnishings, pool access, deeded beach access, and all the coastal comforts you need. Please be aware this is a second-floor unit requiring stairs with no elevator access, and while we welcome pets in the condo, Gulf Shores beaches are not pet-friendly.

The property is located on quiet West Beach, directly across from beach access with popular dining and shopping within walking distance, including Beach House Kitchen & Cocktails, Waves grocery, and S&S Seafood. The famous Hangout is just 1.5 miles away, with major shopping and attractions conveniently located within 3-4 miles of the property.

The living space features a full kitchen with island seating for three, stainless steel and Le Cruset cookware, and a coffee station offering both regular brewing and Keurig options, complemented by a 40" Smart TV, queen sofa bed, and comfortable rocker recliner. The bedroom provides a queen bed with nice linens, ample storage solutions, bedside tables with reading lamps, and a book exchange for your enjoyment. The bathroom includes a spacious walk-in shower stocked with shower gel, shampoo, and conditioner, luxury towels, and beach towels, plus an in-unit washer and dryer with eco-friendly supplies. Guests can enjoy the shared pool area with sun loungers and tables located at the south end of the building.

We take pride in providing eco-friendly options including Swedish dish cloths, detergent sheets, and Brita filter throughout your stay. As your local hosts, we offer personalized area recommendations through our digital guestbook and share my personal knowledge of Gulf Shores to enhance your experience.

We welcome responsible guests who appreciate a well-maintained space and follow our house rules, with pet owners who understand local beach restrictions being perfect fits for our property. We value guests who treat our home with care and help us maintain the five-star standard we strive for with every stay.

➡️ No smoking of any kind ($300 fee)
➡️ No glitter or dyes ($300 fee)
➡️ Primary guest responsible for all visitors
