Pumpkin Spice and Everything Nice: Fall Coziness on the Alabama Gulf Coast

When you think of fall, you might conjure images of rustling leaves in hues of burnt orange and gold, or steaming mugs of pumpkin spice lattes warming chilly hands. But at The Beach Club Resort and Spa in Gulf Shores, Alabama, we’re putting a sandy twist on the season. Because, let’s be honest, what’s better than the blend of salty sea breezes with a sprinkle of cinnamon spice?

If you’re ready to experience an ahh-mazing autumn season, here’s why fall at The Beach Club is your coziest time on the Alabama Gulf Coast.

Fall is the time when our sun-soaked shores turn into a cozy autumn sanctuary. Wave ‘good-bye’ to the sizzling summer heat and ‘hello’ to crisp fall mornings, perfect for snuggling under balcony blankets with a warm cup of coffee. As you take in the view, the sun plays peek-a-boo behind clouds and the waves whisper tales of the summer just past.

It may be too cool for the pool, but those crisp evening temps are ideal for a cozy beach campfire. As red and orange flames crackle and pop under a colorful fall sunset, gather on the sand to share stories and roast s’mores as the stars start to shine. Perhaps even a pumpkin one, if you’re feeling extra spicy!

Of course, no fall experience would be complete without that comfy-cozy factor. The gentle breeze from the beach provides the per-fall-ct excuse to break out your favorite sweater and scarf combo. Better yet, stop by The Village Mercantile to wrap yourself in one of our plush resort sweatshirts and wear the essence of Gulf Shores wherever you go.
