Business Description
Thriving 27-Year Boutique & Salon with Loyal Clientele & Top Location
Why This Business Works in Orange Beach

Suns Up Tans thrives not only because of its premium location on directly on the beach highway with gulf views, but also due to the strong local demand. Many of our loyal customers are full-time residents with busy careers, families, and limited time to enjoy the beach itself. Whether it's due to work, school schedules, or parenting responsibilities, indoor tanning provides a convenient and consistent way for locals to maintain a sun-kissed look year-round. This dependable demand from working professionals, teachers, hospitality workers, and parents helps drive consistent traffic to the salon throughout all seasons.
