If you\u2019ve been thinking of getting away, now is the perfect time to book your rental for the summer. Stay a week or two and don\u2019t feel pressured to use those vacation days because you can definitely work from here! Read on to see the benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Views<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They say the best work comes from surrounding inspiration. We can\u2019t think of a better place to inspire your mind than the relaxing waves, white sand and warm sunshine along Alabama\u2019s beaches. Work from your balcony or maybe a nearby coffee shop or restaurant with a view. A big perk of this plan is the fact that after a few hours of work, you can take a break to soak up the sun, take a long walk on the beach or bike ride through the trails at Gulf State Park. The beach lifestyle is a great escape from the regular hustle and bustle of your normal office environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Wi-Fi<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wi-Fi is available with our rentals and no matter what part of the island you decide to stay, you\u2019ll have the accommodations needed to get your job done. If you\u2019re bringing your family, they\u2019ll be happy to have access to the 32 miles of sandy beaches, plenty of trails for biking and nature sightings and plenty of attractions to keep them entertained while you are working for the day. Gulf State Park also offers a free bike-share program with bicycles for use while on the island. Check out the many local bike rental shops for fun cruisers, segways, helmets, trackers and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Convenient Meals<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you plan to prepare your meals at your vacation rental, enjoy local restaurants or a mixture of both \u2013 you\u2019ll be near great options at any of our vacation rentals. You can even choose to have local grocery stores deliver to your rental so you can save time on grocery shopping during your stay. Many local restaurants offer dine-in, takeout and delivery. Plan to take a break from working for a beach picnic during the day! The possibilities for fun meals are endless when you\u2019re staying in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bring the Family<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With school almost out for summer, it is the perfect time to plan a family getaway. Why not pack your laptop and make it a working vacation? The kids can play in the pool or build sandcastles while you get a few hours of work done. Whether you work poolside, beachside or from your balcony \u2013 the rewards are endless when it comes to escaping the daily grind to experience a new perspective along our white-sand beaches here in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You work hard year-round and sometimes a little change in scenery is an excellent boost for the hard-working mind. Find balance in your schedule, enjoy time with your family and soak in the sunshine alongside our white-sand beaches during a week or more of working from here. Find plenty of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sugsands.com\/search-rentals\">vacation rentals on the Alabama Gulf Coast<\/a> for your budget and desired dates from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sugsands.com\/\">Sugar Sands<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So many people have flexibility with their jobs these days.
