We are planning a family vacation to Gulf Shores this July starting 7/18 but haven't ever been there before. Can anyone gives us some hints on where to stay that is nice and a good deal? We will need 3 bedrooms, 2 baths. Anything else you can tell us about Gulf Shores if you have vacationed there before that would be helpful we would appreciate.

Thanks.
