    Welcome to Blue Haven at Moonraker, a 2-bedroom condo directly across from Seacrest condominiums in Gulf Shores.

    Pick up fresh seafood at S&S Seafood Market, just steps away, and cook at home. The Beach House restaurant is just one block away, and Gulf Shores Steamer and Desoto`s, which is famous for its Bushwackers, are nearby. Groceries, ice cream, and dining are half a block away, and The Hangout is about 1.5 miles away.

    Winter is a great time for scenic cruises, dolphin watching, and hiking. Visiting family will enjoy The Track, with its bumper boats, and the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo.

    Check-in is automated, and we`re always available before, during, and after your stay. Our professional cleaners thoroughly clean and disinfect between every guest.

    Good to know: There`s no elevator, and the unit is up three small flights of stairs.
    Guests need to be quiet between 10:00 PM and 8:00 AM.
    Renter MUST be 21 or older unless pre-approved
    Check-in after 3:00 PM

Great place

Quick little weekend getaway, that was very short notice. I did not even look at pictures of the condo before we booked! Lovely, clean condo with plenty of room for our family of 3. So nice that we had our own designated covered parking spot. Communication with host was great! I would definitely stay again.

Nice rental

This is a great location with easy beach access & walking distance from the Beach House restaurant (highly recommend) & a small grocery store. The unit was clean with a well appointed kitchen if you want to eat in. The owner is very responsive to questions. Beds were very comfortable. Like most places, there are stairs (2 flights). Would definitely recommend.
