The Best Beach Houses for Family Reunions

Planning a family reunion can be a challenge, especially when it comes to finding a place that's big enough for everyone. The good news is we've got a few homes that make it easy to keep the whole family together without feeling crowded. Our top picks for large groups are Kiran Terrace Quadplex, Kiran Terrace Duplex, and Sunrays. Each one offers plenty of room to spread out, easy beach access, and everything you need for a memorable stay on the Alabama Gulf Coast.

Kiran Terrace Quadplex is our largest option, featuring 16 bedrooms, 12 full bathrooms, and 4 half baths. It comfortably sleeps up to 32 guests and includes a private pool, making it a favorite for family reunions, church groups, and multi-family vacations. The property is made up of four two-story townhomes that are rented together. Each townhome has its own kitchen, living area, laundry room, and private balcony, so everyone has a place to relax after a day at the beach. It's the perfect balance of spending time together while still having a little privacy when you want it. Even better, it's dog-friendly, so your pets can come along too.

Located on the same property, Kiran Terrace Duplex is another great choice for large families. With 6 bedrooms, 6 full bathrooms, and 2 half baths, it sleeps up to 20 guests. Each side of the duplex includes its own kitchen, living room, laundry room, and balcony, giving everyone plenty of space without feeling like they're on top of each other. Guests also have access to the shared pool, and yes, this property is dog-friendly too.

Need even more room? Rent both the Quadplex and the Duplex together for the ultimate family reunion setup. You'll have space for everyone to stay comfortably while enjoying the pool all to yourselves.

If being right on the beach is at the top of your wish list, Sunrays is hard to beat. This beautiful beachfront home offers 9 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms and sleeps up to 24 guests. The open-concept living area makes it easy for everyone to gather for meals, games, or simply catching up after a day in the sun. Since the house sits directly on the beach, there's no crossing busy streets or hauling beach gear from a public parking lot—just walk out the door and you're on the sand. When you're ready for a break from the waves, cool off in the private pool or relax poolside while the kids splash around. Located on West Beach in Gulf Shores, Sunrays is the kind of home that makes family vacations feel effortless.
