No matter what you're looking for in your accommodation, there's a place for you at the beach.

How old do you have to be to rent a beach house in Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, or Fort Morgan?

Beach house rentals require the person booking to be at least 25 years old. This policy helps ensure a responsible primary guest is present. If you're booking for a group or family, the adult meeting the age requirement must be part of the stay.
 

Can someone else check in if they're over 25?

The primary renter, who is 25 or older, must check in personally and stay for the full duration of the reservation. ID is checked at arrival, and some properties may not allow entry if this requirement isn't met.

Can a group of underage guests stay if one parent or adult is with them?

In most cases, yes, as long as the adult is 25 or older and is staying for the full duration. Beach house rentals require a responsible adult to book, check in, and remain on the property. Check with the rental agency or owner for specific rules.
