About this property
Beachfront & Pet Friendly
Offered by Coastal View Vacations | Gulf Shores, AL
Welcome to The Commodore East, a standout beachfront retreat designed for unforgettable group getaways. This spacious 5-bedroom, 4-bath duplex sits directly on the sand and offers the perfect combination of comfort, character, and panoramic Gulf views. Just offshore, you’ll spot the historic Rachel, a schooner that ran aground in 1923 and has become a beloved local landmark often visible from the property.
Designed for Gathering & Gulf Views
The main level is the heart of the home, featuring a wall of windows that frames breathtaking views of the beach and Gulf beyond. A massive dining table anchors the space, allowing everyone to dine together while soaking in the scenery. Additional counter seating ensures there’s room for the entire group to gather comfortably.
The well-appointed kitchen is a dream for group meals, with a unique oversized prep counter that works equally well for cooking, serving, or casual buffet-style dining. You’ll also enjoy granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and durable hard-surface flooring throughout the home—perfect for beach living.
This level also includes a large pantry, a full-size washer and dryer, and a full bathroom for added convenience.
Private Retreats Across Three Levels
On the second level, the primary suite offers a true escape. Enjoy a king-size bed, private balcony access, and a spacious ensuite bath complete with a garden tub, double vanity, stall shower, and private water closet.
Also on this level are two additional king bedrooms that share a well-appointed hall bathroom, offering comfort and privacy for guests.
The third level is ideal for families or larger groups, featuring a king bedroom and an expansive bunk room. The bunk room includes two triple twin bunk beds, along with a full-over-full bunk and a twin trundle—plenty of space for kids or extra guests.
Perfect for Extended Stays
With its generous layout, beachfront location, and thoughtful design, The Commodore East is ideal for family reunions, multi-family vacations, and extended stays. Snowbirds are welcome—please inquire for special seasonal pricing.
Whether you’re enjoying sunrise coffee over the Gulf, gathering for meals with a view, or making memories just steps from the sand, The Commodore East delivers a classic beachfront experience with room for everyone.
