About this property
A Sunset View/ West Beach home with gulf view
Summary:
4 Bedroom 4.5 Bathrooms .Sunset View in Gulf Shores offers unobstructed views of the Gulf, Little Lagoon, and the dunes of the Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge. The owners bought the home for the sunsets over the Gulf, but learned that the morning sun lights the dunes for even more beauty. The Wildlife Refuge provides four miles of pristine beach with hiking trails among the dunes and along the lagoon.
The Space:
Sunset View is a thoughtfully selected Gulf Shores getaway offering open coastal views and a peaceful setting along West Beach. From this elevated home, guests enjoy views of the Gulf, Little Lagoon, and the protected dunes of Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge. The location balances easy access to dining and attractions with a calmer, residential feel surrounded by palms and dunes.
The main living level is designed for gathering and everyday comfort. An open living, dining, and kitchen layout allows everyone to stay connected while enjoying Gulf views through large windows. The kitchen features new appliances, including a double oven, along with ample counter space for shared meals. The dining table seats six, with additional seating for four at the kitchen bar.
Also on the main level is a queen bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, ideal for guests who prefer fewer stairs. A half bath and laundry room are conveniently located on this floor.
Upstairs, two king bedrooms each include private ensuite bathrooms and access to the upper balcony. From here, guests can enjoy coastal views, watch seabirds along the shoreline, or relax on the loungers in the evening breeze. Both rooms offer generous space and views from the bed.
Above, the loft provides a quiet retreat with a twin daybed and views of both the Gulf and Little Lagoon. A small bar area with windows creates a peaceful spot for reading, writing, or enjoying a quiet moment away from the group.
The separate guesthouse adds flexibility for larger families or friends traveling together. It is accessed by a glass-enclosed skyway from the main house. The guesthouse den includes a queen sleeper sofa and a compact galley kitchen equipped with essentials such as a Keurig, blender, crock pot, shrimp boil pot, mini stove, and refrigerator. A covered west-facing patio offers Gulf views through the palms.
Upstairs in the guesthouse is a king bedroom with an ensuite bathroom and west-facing views toward the dunes and sunset. On the lower level, an additional bunk room with full-over-full bunks provides extra sleeping space. This room has exterior access and garage entry but does not include a TV or bathroom; guests use nearby bathrooms in the guesthouse or main home.
Highlights include:
Views of the Gulf, Little Lagoon, and protected dunes
Access to uncrowded beachfront near Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge
Main home plus detached guesthouse connected by enclosed skyway

Guest Access:
Guests have access to the entire main home, guesthouse, garage, and outdoor spaces. Laguna Key amenities, including the shared pool, tennis court, basketball goal, beach walkway, and lagoon piers, are available to guests during their stay.
The Neighborhood:
Laguna Key is a gated beach front and lagoon front community at the very end of West Beach Boulevard in Gulf Shores. The beach is to the south, the lagoon is to the north, and the Bon Secour Wildlife Refuge is to the west. It is situated in a quiet part of the beach, but is only a quick drive away from all the restaurants, festivals, and activities of Gulf Shores - it is just under 6 miles down the beach from The Hangout. The amenities of Laguna Key make it a perfect destination for family and friend vacations - beach boardwalk with gazebo, pool with bathrooms, tennis courts, pier onto the lagoon with gazebo, and quiet private interior streets behind the gated entrance.
Getting Around:
Laguna Key is the gated community at the end of West Beach Boulevard in Gulf Shores. Approach Gulf Shores on Highway 59. When the road ends at The Hangout, turn right onto West Beach Boulevard. Laguna Key is 6 miles down West Beach Boulevard. Once inside the neighborhood, go straight until you reach the cul-de-sac, 3270 Dolphin Dr will be on the right.

Had a wonderful stay. The house is older than some in the neighborhood, but kept up well. Having views of the beach and the wildlife reserve from the porch made for a peaceful trip.
Quiet location, nice amenities and what a view! The bedroom configuration worked perfectly for our three families.

Great home for our family vacation. Beautiful sunsets.
This home worked out well for our family of 10. We enjoyed use of the pool, tennis courts, and access to the beach. There were different options for fishing from the gulf shore and the dock on the lake.
Beautiful home that is the far west house in gulf shores. You are up next to the dunes and there is an open lot between you and the beach. Perfect place for a large family that wants to enjoy the beach and its location is very private. Very short walk to the beach.
Amazing location, great neighborhood. We had the beach to ourselves. Beach view from almost every room. Great for a large group.

My family and I had a great time !
The house was absolutely great and accommodated our group! Everyone had their own space . Loved the other kitchen that helped out alot when cooking our meals ,the views there are beautiful! Ihave stayed in another house in that neighborhood but all we could see was other houses ,At Sunset view you are almost beach front, love it so we all hope to book again next year .
It was perfect for our family ranging from 5-69. Couldn’t ask for anything more except a pool. Unfortunately the community pool was not working during our stay, the porch was perfect for this grandma’s morning coffee. Close enough to hear the waves.
Great time! No true complaints, house has wear n tear but overall good. Listing states there was a grill and there was not. Contacted Mngt company with no reply. We would of ate at the house more. The location of the property was great. Beach, pool and boardwalk was all enjoyed. Great neighborhood, felt safe and secured. Will definitely be renting in the Laguna Keys again!
