FREE Nights for Hangout Music Fest Weekend in Gulf Shores

Can you believe it...we are just a few weeks away from a history-making major music festival in Gulf Shores - the Hangout Beach, Music and Art Festival (May 14-16). I bought my weekend pass weeks ago and I can't wait.

The accommodations deals are getting sweeter at Meyer Real Estate. Rent now and get a FREE night. Rent 3 nights and pay for 2 in a condo or rent 4 nights and pay for 3 in a beach house.
Sharing costs in a condo or house really makes a festival trip affordable. Plus you have a living area and balcony for relaxation and a kitchen for convenience. I looked up a few samples to give you an idea of how economical your trip can be when everyone pitches in for the cost.

GULF-FRONT DIRECTLY OVERLOOKING THE BEACH
3 nights in a 2-bedroom gulf-front condo near the festival totals $533 (divided by 4 people the cost is only $44.45 per person per night).

4 nights in a 4-bedroom gulf-front house in Gulf Shores totals $1504 (divided by 8 people the cost is only $46.98 per person per night).

WATERFRONT ON THE LAGOON ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE GULF
3 nights in a 2-bedroom waterfront condo on Little Lagoon in Gulf Shores totals $447 (divided by 4 people the cost is only $37.23 per person per night).

4 nights in a 4-bedroom waterfront house in Gulf Shores totals $1314 (divided by 8 people the cost is only $41.05 per person per night).

Use our MAP to find a condo near the action or stay at a nearby beach area and plan on using the shuttle service.
