About this property

Beachview 309 | Across from Beach • Walk to Hangout

  • Welcome to Beachview 309, your cozy Gulf Shores getaway in the heart of the action! Perfect for couples or a quick beach escape for two, this comfortable studio puts you directly across from the white-sand beach and The Hangout—so you can park the car and start enjoying Gulf Shores.

    LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION

    Beachview 309 is all about convenience. Step outside and you're within walking distance of the beach, restaurants, shopping, nightlife and entertainment.

    Spend the morning on the sand, grab lunch nearby, shop in the afternoon and walk to dinner or live entertainment in the evening—all without having to drive around town.

    COZY & COMFORTABLE FOR TWO

    This studio is an ideal home base for guests who plan to spend their vacation experiencing Gulf Shores.

    Inside you'll find:

    • Queen bed
    • Full bathroom with tiled shower
    • Flat-screen TV
    • Free Wi-Fi
    • Air conditioning
    • Iron
    • Elevator access

    It's a simple, comfortable place to recharge after a full day at the beach or a night out in Gulf Shores.

    CONVENIENT KITCHENETTE

    The kitchenette includes a micro-refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker, making it easy to keep drinks cold, warm up leftovers or enjoy coffee before heading across the street to the beach.

    With so many restaurants within walking distance, you may not need to cook at all!

    WALK TO GULF SHORES FAVORITES

    One of Beachview 309's biggest advantages is being right in the center of Gulf Shores.

    The Hangout and Gulf beaches are directly across the street, while popular restaurants, shops and entertainment are all nearby.

    Leave the car parked and enjoy being close to:

    • Gulf Shores' white-sand beaches
    • The Hangout
    • The Pink Pony
    • Restaurants and nightlife
    • Shopping
    • Mini golf and entertainment

    EASY BEACH GETAWAY

    The Beachview complex also offers covered parking, elevator access and an on-site laundry facility, giving you the conveniences you need for your stay.

    Please note that Beachview 309 does not have a private balcony and is designed as a compact studio for two.

    If you're looking for a huge condo where you'll spend your vacation indoors, this probably isn't it. But if you want an affordable, comfortable place to stay steps from the heart of Gulf Shores with the beach, food and entertainment right outside your door, Beachview 309 is a great home base for your Gulf Coast getaway.

Location was key. Everything was in walking distance. The place was small but clean. The only issue we had was a faint odor in the room. Would definitely stay there again.

Room was smaller than expected even reading reviews but still plenty room for 2 adults to be comfortable the hallway and stairs to the room are what really worried me steps looked old and hallways were super narrow but as long as you watched your step and didn’t have to pass anyone in the hallway you were fine overall great quick getaway location

Long weekend with husband

Great location! Walk to everything. Floors were fairly dirty and the sheets had hair on them. There isn’t a place to hang up clothes and didn’t have enough towels and bath clothes. Only one chair to sit and watch tv. Had to sit on bed. Ok for a short stay.

Great location

The location was amazing. Right across the street is the beach, the hangout, and the pink pony. Dollar general, souvenir shops and various restaurants are also steps away from the building. Access to the beach is easy with a crosswalk light. The room did have a bad smell. We had to leave our clothing in our suitcases because the dresser drawers smelled really bad. The bathroom walls had some mold growing on them and there was a crack in the floor of the bathtub, also the shower button was not working properly so it was hard to get the shower to turn on. The bed was supposed to be a queen, but it was more full size. The room was small, but was ok for 2 ppl, would not recommend for more than 2 ppl. All in all if you are looking for a cheap weekend getaway, this place will work.

Short jaunt from New Orleans

The room is just across the street from the beach. There is a mini kitchen but no sponge or kitchen towel to help with the clean up. The closet is full of cleaning equipment & no hangers so nothing can be stowed away in there. The dresser's drawers are so warped that once pulled out we really struggled to push them back in. No amenities in the bathroom except for 1 bar of soap & no hair dryer. Some room occupants did not ahered to the quiet time rules. Weed smokers must have reeked up room(s) because the hallway smelled so strong someone had to prop open the door. The location is nice & if all you want to do is laze around on the beach - this place will fit the bill.

Great location with covered parking walking distance to restaurants and entertainment

We enjoyed our stay at Beachview. The condo was older and the room was small but large enough for 2 people. The bed slept well. The room was clean with average wear for a vacation town. I hated that people smoked at both ends of the hallways and near elevator.

Not staying here again

Very small. No useful furniture other than the bed. The fan in the bathroom is a joke. The shower is an even bigger joke. Took a "clean" glass out of the cabinet that had a lipstick print on it.

Upon arrival the apartment had a terrible smell that even a strong air freshener didn’t improve, there are 2 floor mats incredible dirt, the commode ring was dirty, 2 pillows were also very dirty, in the kitchen the china drain rack was dirty, I already sent pictures and a complaint to Vrbo and the renting agency Poole & Associates without response.

Great location

As other reviews have said, this place is perfect for a short/long weekend vacation. We were here Thursday-Monday and it was perfect for what we were needing. If it were any longer, we would probably need to go elsewhere as you would probably want a bigger fridge and stove. The check in process was so quick and efficient I think I was in and out of the office in 5 minutes. The location is PERFECT. We only moved our car 1 time to drive to the seafood market, all other times we were able to walk to shops, restaurants, The Hangout, etc. very easily. The public beach access is literally right across the road. I really don’t think you could get a better location for this price! Because we walked most of the time, we had no issues with parking. We did have to call maintenance for a toilet issue. They came while we were at the beach the same day and the problem was fixed immediately! We were very impressed on how quickly our concerns were handled. We would stay here again for a short trip to Gulf Shores again! Perfect for a couple :)

Cozy Studio

It was the most affordable option I had at the time. The signs everywhere said there was a pool, but I never found one. Parking was a nightmare even with a parking pass. Huge trucks with lifts made it impossible to drive into the parking under the building. For what it was, it was cozy and suited its purpose for which I am thankful, but I won't return to this location. The price is too high for what it is and there are options that provide more in walking distance.
