Gulf Shores, AL
Alabama Gulf Coast - underrated value coastal STR
Gulf Shores offers some of the most attractive risk-adjusted STR returns on the Gulf Coast. Property prices remain significantly below comparable Florida markets while occupancy and ADR have trended upward for five consecutive years. The white sand beaches rival Destin at a fraction of the price, and the Alabama Gulf Coast is the fastest-growing STR market in the Southeast by new listing count.
