About this property
8BR Beach House, Sweeping Direct Gulf Views, Sleeps 20, Steps to Sand, 7 Pools
Designed specifically for large, multi-family beach vacations, Afterglow on the Gulf combines two connected homes into one spacious 8-bedroom retreat with room for everyone to gather comfortably while still having space to spread out. Located just one house back from beachfront in Fort Morgan, you’ll enjoy true Gulf views of the water and beach across the dunes and easy beach access without beachfront pricing.
With 8 bedrooms and 6 full bathrooms, the home comfortably accommodates up to 20 guests, making it ideal for family vacations, reunions, and group beach trips.
Sleeping Arrangements
• Five king bedrooms • One queen bedroom • Two full-over-full bunk rooms, perfect for kids or teens
Two upstairs bedrooms open to private balconies overlooking the Gulf.
Designed for Large Groups
The main level features two full kitchens and two living areas, allowing your group to cook, gather, and relax without feeling crowded. The dual-kitchen layout makes meal prep easy for larger groups, and separate living spaces allow kids and adults to unwind at their own pace.
Two full-size washer and dryer sets make longer stays convenient.
Outdoor Space & Beach Access
The decks off the main living areas offer room to gather for beautiful Gulf views and stunning sunsets, creating the perfect place to relax after a day at the beach.
Because you’re just one home back from direct beachfront, you can easily go back and forth throughout the day without the need to pack everything up. Forget something in the house? No problem it's easy to just run back and grab it.
Do you enjoy family time and serenity? That's great, because this stretch of Fort Morgan beach is known for being quieter and less crowded, even during peak summer weeks.
Beach chairs and toys are available in the garage for guest use (items may vary depending on prior guests).
6 parking passes come with the home.
Community Amenities
Afterglow on the Gulf is located within the amenity-rich Gulf Shores Plantation community, where guests enjoy access to:

Sorry!
You get the space for your entire group, true Gulf views with stunning unobstructed sunsets, easy beach access, and resort-style amenities, all in a relaxed coastal setting away from high-rise crowds.
Located on Fort Morgan, Afterglow is close to many restaurants, golf courses, and other things to do. It somehow feels away from it all but with plenty of things to do (and it's only a short 15 to 20 minute drive to all the hubbub on Gulf Shores itself). Fort Morgan is a more cost-efficient choice for those who are looking for something a little more laid back. Book your stay and make Afterglow your home base on the Gulf.
