June 2016

Right next to the Pass Bridge in Orange Beach, Alabama, is a massive resort complex called Caribe the Resort. Located on over 30 acres of a peninsula, Caribe features more amenities than any resorts in the area, including 40,000 sq. feet of pools, lazy river, tennis courts, saunas and steam rooms, game room, and private beach cart service. There is a five-star restaurant next door called Cobalt. This beach getaway is absolutely amazing, and it’s also very expensive. Early summer rates per night start around $500-$600 and only go up from there.

Yikes.

What’s a great way to save money? Bring your girlfriends!

2016 Beach Princess: Condo Rental at The Wharf in Orange Beach, Alabama

Cobalt day-old desserts…$1 each and excellent for sharing.

Girly drinks!

So if beach prices are keeping you from having fun in the Alabama gulf coast sun, grab some friends and split the price!

We’re already planning next year. Love ya, ladies, and thanks for the excellent company!
