Gulf Shores Surf & Racquet Club Vacation Rentals

Gulf Shores Surf & Racquet Club in Gulf Shores, Alabama is a unique waterfront condominium community located on West Beach Boulevard along Little Lagoon. Known for its boating amenities, private fishing pier, tennis courts, and deeded beach access across the street, Gulf Shores Surf & Racquet Club vacation rentals provide a peaceful coastal retreat with both lagoon and Gulf access. This low-density complex offers a quieter alternative to high-rise beachfront towers while still placing guests minutes from the heart of Gulf Shores.

Why Stay at Gulf Shores Surf & Racquet Club?

The West Beach location offers a more relaxed atmosphere compared to central Gulf Shores near Highway 59. You’re close enough to reach restaurants, grocery stores, and attractions within minutes, yet far enough away to enjoy quieter evenings and beautiful lagoon sunsets.
