Big pool. Large balconies! Great deal. Nice! Slps 20. Shells, West Unit 1422 West Beach 6BR 7BA. West Beach Blvd Duplex. Pool. Large balcony patios! Easy beach access. Great deal. Nice place! Brand new paint for an updated style inside on both sides! Looking great!! This listing is for the West side unit. Shells, West! Each side is a private unit with 6 bedrooms, kitchen, living room, and more. No sharing. You CAN also rent the other side, or both together: two of almost everything: kitchens, living rooms, more! When renting both sides, guests may unlock the connecting doors to allow for access between the two sides near the kitchens without going up and down the stairs from the main entries. Looking for an incredibly nice, upscale home to house a large group of people but you'd like to save a few dollars in the deal? The Shells duplex has 6 bedrooms on each side, balconies on two levels, ocean views from the south side rooms, a living room, and a lounge room. Each side of Shells has the following sleeping arrangements: Main Floor North BR: King 3rd Floor South BR: 2 Queens 3rd Floor Middle BR: Queen 3rd Floor North BR: King 4th Floor South BR: King 4th Floor North BR: Queen and Triple Bunk (twin over full) Main Living Room: QSS Main Floor Bonus Room: QSS ALL bedrooms have private, en suite bathrooms. Shells is located on the north side of West Beach Boulevard, across the street from the beach and you can see the beach! EASY DEEDED BEACH ACCES You have beach access and a large pool for the guests of Shells. We aren't talking about blocks to reach the beach, it's right across the street, you have access to the beach by using the private walk way next to one of our homes at 1433 W. Beach Blvd! 465 ft walk to the beach! TWO REFRIGERATORS Two? Per side? Yes two. Because you won't want to stay somewhere without an extra fridge once you have had them. POOL Big. Private to the two sides of the duplex: no sharing with other places nearby. The pool is open all year. It's a big rectangle, 33x17x3-5'. Lounge chairs are provided around the pool. 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! PARKING There is available onsite , offstreet, parking for at least 6 midsize vehicles if you use space under the home and stack well. In duplex units, please be neighborly about this. SOAPS, TOWELS, COFFEE, GRILLS 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 both drip coffee makers and Keurigs as well. PETS We do consider well-behaved canine furry friends at many locations. This requires owner pre-approval, and is subject to a pet fee (currently $250 per pet). Approval in a duplex location, especially for peak weeks, generally is only available for guests renting both sides of the duplex. Please inquire. No smoking please, but feel free to eat lots of shrimp, bask in the warm sun, and have a great time! That's it! We think you'll have a great stay in our home. Reach out and let us know how we can help! SNOWBIRDS! Up to 2/3rds off for off-season stays of 28 days or longer. Inquire.

Jan 9, 2024 #### Beautiful place and a great deal We loved Shells and it was much more affordable than many places we looked at. It is across the street from the beach (not on the beach) but that probably helps with the price a lot. And the owner has a beach access right across the street instead of walking down the road--very convenient! I highly recommend it. ##### Alan P. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Allison H.

Communication prior to and after our stay was excellent. Check in was super easy and everything was just as described. Plenty of seating around the pool and on the decks. Several tables under the house allowed us to enjoy our meals outside and in the shade. There are 3 levels of living space, so lots of steps - but this gave us plenty of room to spread out. The beach is right across the street and gorgeous! Overall, an excellent experience! ##### Lori W. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharon S. Sep 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family vacation 2024 We came down as a family of 17, 10 adults and 7 grand children, ages three and under. Even though the weather did not cooperate with our plans, we had a great time just spending time with the family and going to a few of the local gift shops and restaurants was fun for everyone. The home was clean, and the owners replied to any concerns we had, which really wasn’t any thing major. The beds were comfortable! The location to the beach was just across the street. We will consider this home again in a couple years when the grandkids get a little older. ##### Sharon S. Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joel L.

The house was clean and beautiful, our family of 15 had no trouble at all fitting enjoyed many family dinners. The pool was perfect and was plenty big enough to not only accommodate our family but the neighbors family as well. The hosts were fantastic and we will definitely be renting here again FIVE STARS!!! ##### Joel L.

We have a large family that gets together once a year with lots of adults and children! This place was great because there were so many bedrooms, all bedrooms had its own bathroom, plenty of living room space, balconies, and a private pool! Easily fits 4 vehicles as well. It was a great trip! \[😎😎😎 Yay! Super happy to hear you all had a fantastic time at Shells and overall had a great trip! Thank you so much Melissa, and please don't hesitate to reach out here, or directly, if you think of any suggestions/tweaks to our place OR when ready to come back too! 😉🙏\] ##### Melissa D.

We did have an air conditioning problem and that was repaired very quickly which we are grateful for. Thank you for that! One last thing, the beach access for us was difficult to obey. The people staying in the house that we walk through parked their cars too close to the walkway making it impossible to pass through. We really did enjoy our stay and the set up is perfect for large families. I would definitely stay again just wanted to make you beware of those issues. Thank you! ##### Jimmy M.

Jul 18, 2024 #### Gulf Shores family vacation at Shells We LOVED your home Everyone had way enough space! The air conditioner kept us nice and cold. Everything we needed was there. The pool was awesome. The people next door had the whole baseball team there and the parents which crowded us out some but you have no control over how many people were there. Definitely more than 20\. We still loved it. Thank you! ##### Susan M. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Shooting Star Casino & Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Thief-River-Falls-Hotels-Shooting-Star-Casino-Hotel.h28874246.Hotel-Information) > > [Canad Inns Destination Center Grand Forks](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Canad-Inns-Destination-Center-Grand-Forks.h1713856.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Hilton-Waikoloa-Village.h19640.Hotel-Information) > > [Angel Of The Winds Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Angel-Of-The-Winds-Casino-Resort.h9689970.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Shadow Ridge I-The Villages](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Shadow-Ridge.h853695.Hotel-Information) > > [Semiahmoo Resort Golf & Spa, Trademark Collection by Wyndham](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Semiahmoo-Resort-Golf-Spa.h13986.Hotel-Information) > > [Bavarian Inn of Frankenmuth](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Bavarian-Inn-Of-Frankenmuth.h9809515.Hotel-Information) > > [Seneca Allegany Resort & Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Salamanca-Hotels-Seneca-Allegany-Resort-Casino.h2238839.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information) > > [C'mon Inn Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Cmon-Inn-Hotel-Suites.h1510580.Hotel-Information) > > [Great Wolf Lodge Sandusky OH](https://www.expedia.ca/Sandusky-Hotels-Great-Wolf-Lodge-Sandusky-OH.h1183594.Hotel-Information) > > [Darien Lake Lodge on the Lake ](https://www.expedia.ca/Corfu-Hotels-Darien-Lake-Lodge-On-The-Lake.h13279584.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Resort & Club, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-La-Quinta-Resort-Club.h10916.Hotel-Information) > > [The Brook at Turning Stone Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Utica-Hotels-Turning-Stone-Resort-And-Casino.h1684407.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Jasper](https://www.expedia.ca/Jasper-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Jasper.h1760121.Hotel-Information) > > [The Trail in Adams - Berkshires’ Art Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Adams-Hotels-Topia-Inn-An-Organic-Oasis.h12259511.Hotel-Information) > > [The Breakers Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Breakers-Palm-Beach.h8479.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Mobile](https://www.expedia.ca/Mobile-Hotels-Fairfield-Inn-Suites-By-Marriott-Mobile.h41871.Hotel-Information) > > [Six Flags Great Escape Lodge & Indoor Waterpark](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-George-Hotels-Six-Flags-Lodge-Indoor-Waterpark.h1385446.Hotel-Information) > > [Riviera Resort Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Margaritaville-Resort-Palm-Springs.h26011.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Kings’ Land Waikoloa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Kings-Land-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h2303745.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Orchid](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Fairmont-Orchid.h25190.Hotel-Information) > > [Tulalip Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Tulalip-Resort-Casino.h2161524.Hotel-Information) > > [TownePlace Suites By Marriott Mobile](https://www.expedia.ca/Mobile-Hotels-TownePlace-Suites-By-Marriott-Mobile.h427522.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Desert-Willow-Villas.h3304313.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Welk-Resorts-Palm-Springs.h1140793.Hotel-Information) > > [Akwesasne Mohawk Casino Resort and Players Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hogansburg-Hotels-Akwesasne-Mohawk-Casino-Resort.h6009138.Hotel-Information) > > [Harrah’s Laughlin - A Caesars Rewards Destination](https://www.expedia.ca/Laughlin-Hotels-Harrahs-Laughlin-Hotel-Casino.h43310.Hotel-Information)
