About this property

Cooler Days. Fewer Crowds. Better Rates.

  • Autumn is a great time to discover Fort Morgan, with cooler beach days, fewer crowds, lighter traffic, and better rates. Jellyfish Twist is a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath beach-view home in a quiet residential community just 17 miles from Gulf Shores, where Gulf views are part of the experience and public beach access is only a 3-minute walk away. Bring the family, bring the dog, and enjoy more of the coast without the summer crowds.



    With public beach access about a 3-minute walk away, this is a great fit for families, couples traveling together, and groups who want space to spread out without being in the middle of the crowds.



    WHERE YOU'LL SLEEP

    **Master King Suite:** King bed, private bathroom, walk-in closet, and private deck.

    **Gulf-View Queen Suite:** Queen bed, private balcony, coffee station, and wide-open Gulf views.

    **Sea Turtle Room:** Daybed with trundle that can be configured as one king or two twins.

    GOOD TO KNOW

    Jellyfish Twist is **not directly beachfront**. The home has partial Gulf views and is approximately a 3-minute walk to the beach.



    Exterior security cameras monitor the driveway, entrances, and stairs. There are no cameras inside the home.



    **Booking requirements:** A signed rental agreement, government-issued photo ID, and security hold are required for every reservation. If bringing a pet, the applicable **$150 non-refundable pet fee per pet** is also required. These items must be completed within 24 hours of booking or the reservation may be canceled.



    Jellyfish Twist is designed for people who want to spend less time dealing with crowds and more time enjoying the beach, the Gulf, and each other.

The house was very clean. We liked the close proximity to the beach and that you could see and hear the waves from the deck. It was stocked with all essentials needed to get you started. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We will definitely stay here again.

Cozy cute beach house

We enjoyed our stay. Loved mornings on the front deck listening to the ocean. Living room was cozy & a great place to relax. We appreciated the beach cart so we could haul our cooler & gear to the beach. Added bonus was the elevator/lift to move our luggage in & out.

Ft Morgan

Lovely property with all amenities. Everything as described. Swing on porch was best! Upstairs bedroom perfect for teen to stow away, as they typically do. Would rent again. Owner very responsive and home was fantastic. Elevator was life saver!

Jellyfish Twist - Best I've stayed in in over 30 years of visiting Gulf Shores area

My extended family and I have been vacationing in L.A. (Lower Alabama) for nearly 35 years. We've stayed in some great places and some terrible ones. Jellyfish Twist is hands down the best we have stayed at overall. Ample parking, composite decking and furniture outside, free coffee, hotel-style body wash, conditioner, and shampoo, comfortable furniture, amazing host, you name, this place had it. Interior stairs were carpeted and quiet! No creaks, no worry of waking up anyone in the master suite. It was great for a group of early risers upstairs and late sleepers downstairs. Laurel was amazing to work with and even brought a new microwave, as a previous guest had broken the opening mechanism on the old one. One of the best parts? No one complained about the beds! And I had to sleep on the kiddie trundle bed. The location is quite far from the main drag in Gulf Shores, but with a little planning, it works well. Love not having to fight with people for beach spots. Perhaps the only two cons were that it sits about 800 feet from the two easy beach accesses, so you hook it, or drive a short distance. Worth it. The other might be that there is no unimpeded view of the beach, mostly because of the utilities. We also had to deal with construction next door (and the chigging of a generator to power their tools), but that's nothing new for the area.All in all we were very pleased with Jellyfiish Twist and will have it on our short list of places to stay at from now on.
