Le Hibou Blanc (A) - Fairhope: Laid-back Sophistication

Escape & relax at Le Hibou Blanc, located in the “Fruits & Nuts” district of downtown Fairhope, one of the Gulf Coast’s most beloved destinations. Just steps beyond the front door to the horizon on Mobile Bay with spectacular views, sunsets, stars & nature. This chic cottage (1 of 2) is professionally decorated & carefully curated to inspire, enhance comfort & refresh. Parking on-site for 4 cars & space for a boat trailer. Le Hibou Blanc offers authentic luxury with a stunning sense of place.

Here at Le Hibou Blanc the feel is innovative, charming and intimately connected to Mobile Bay just steps beyond our front door. Conveniently, tucked between downtown Fairhope and Historic Point Clear, enjoy the close proximity to public boat launch 1/4 mile away, 1/2 mile to Two Sister's Bakery & Deli, 1 mile to Downtown shopping & dining, and just 2 miles to the famous Grand Hotel Resort & Golf Club. Walk next door to find the famous neighborhood Italian bistro, Gambino's, offering authentic cuisine & piano bar. Across the street, check out the tiki bar & Legion for afternoon cocktails & brews. Le Hibou Blanc wants to capture a feeling as much as they do character, where everyone who visits feels as if they have been welcomed into Fairhope and our own home. Experience the quintessential laid-back sophistication with indoor-outdoor flow, chef's kitchen equipped with black & brass gas range, dreamy white & subtle grey veining Quartzite natural stone kitchen counters, naturally honed marble bathrooms, fully stocked honor bar, complimentary & luxurious Molton Brown of London bath products, crisp white Suzanne Kasler bed linens, 21x15 screened-in porch with gas fireplace, outdoor tv & hanging porch swing. We offer 2 complimentary bicycles & helmets, grill, beach chairs, books & games. Our carefully curated design exudes conversation, imagination, relaxation & nostalgia. Settle into the easygoing pace of life by the water, where an authentic Fairhope experience awaits.


The cottage is a duplex with 2 separate and private units. Each unit has their own private entrance, outdoor space and parking.

Little piece of Heaven on Earth
I'd love to give a bad review to keep this nugget a secret and to myself. 😉 BUT, I'd be lying. We were in town for Mobile Mardi Gras. (We stayed in Unit A) We decided to change it up some and stay in Fairhope, because we love shopping in the quaint little town. The bay is a short walk and can be seen from the yard. Absolutely a fabulous place! The attention to detail in the home was outstanding. They had everything we could have needed. Im excited just typing this because we cant wait to go back! Oh oh oh! The front screened in porch! Yall! You will spend 90% of your time there. Trust me! Thank you Chris!

Another Great Girls’ Weekend!
Our group of 6 colleges friends has been traveling together annually for the last 20 years, and this home in Fairhope checked all of our boxes. The online description matches the real thing exactly. It’s clean and well appointed with fun decor and a great screened porch. The location is excellent, close to both the bay and downtown restaurants and shopping. We’d stay here again without question!

Charming, relaxing elegant sophistication
First getaway in over 4 years and this was sophistication that felt every bit as grand as the Grand Hotel but more private and intimate for our short trip. We loved hanging out in the screened veranda. The bold deco style decor was a treat and well done in a small space. Location is close to everything. Gambino’s is a must-delicious crab claws and eggplant parmigiana! Two Sisters was great for breakfast-had it twice, cause why go anywhere else. Shopping at 7 South, Duke’s, CK Collection, and M&F Casuals. All high end boutiques with great hospitality. The Book INN for great selection of gently used books, organized and easy to shop. Walks on the pier and a day at the Grand Hotel and tour of the USS Alabama. We will come back to Fairhope and would love to stay here again.
