Spring Break stay

Spouse and I stayed with our teenagers, first time to Gulf Shores. Ideal location, convenient beach access with ice cream, convenience store and restaurant within walking distance. The property is a bit worn down and dated (dry rot in the window, front door hard to open/close, back yard isn’t usable) but the kitchen and bath are well stocked.

Nice and quiet

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. We brought our dog and was able to walk him on the lease with ease. First trip to Gulf Shores alone. Normally we bring all the family. This would be a great place to stay again with our kids and grandkids. Easy beach access, clean, and quiet. Short walk to the store and places to eat.

Great location

The house is in a great location across from the beach, with an ocean view from the front porch. The house is in need of some cosmetic updating but was comfortable for our stay. There was plenty of space for our group of four and we enjoyed sitting on the porch late at night as the weather cooled. The kitchen has everything needed to cook meals. Overall, it was a nice stay.

Fun times at the beach.

Rental was very well kept and taken care of. The location is great and very close to the main strip but far enough away to not have heavy traffic near the house. It is also literally across the street from the beach. I come down for my daughter's softball worlds series tournament. It's location was also great for that none of the fields were more than a half hour away. I would definitely rent this place again and suggest it to family and friends.

Great location!

Overall, it's a great place. There were a few cleaning issues (not Stephanie's fault, her cleaner). Stephanie responded right away and sent her back over to fix the issues. You have a great view of the ocean in the bedroom on the second floor and a good view from the porch. I would definitely come back here again.

Great Vacation Spot

The house was great! Right across the street from the beach with easy access to the beach! Easy walk up or drive to area restaurant and shops. House was clean and great for family of 5.

Perfect location, private beach access, close to all the shops and restaurants. Check out process is very simple and easier than most. Well stocked with beach supplies and ice. Only suggestion would be a few more kitchen items might make cooking easier.

Memorial Day Week Stay

We had an amazing stay! The property owner was great at answering all of our questions. When we arrived, we weren’t sure where our walk-through to the beach was, and she let us know immediately. There was no problems with the people staying next-door, they were quiet, and we really enjoyed our stay. The only concern I had, was the traffic in front of the house. We let our girls walk the beach and to the ice cream store with no issues. We did bring our own food, the only thing I would recommend would be having a cheese grater and a broom. The dishes were sufficient, but it would have been nice to have a few more cereal bowls . There was dish soap, laundry soap, and plenty of amenities that we really didn’t have to bring them, but we did. Overall, it was a great experience and I am so glad we stayed.

Our Beach Stay

This place is in a great location across the road from the beach and easy access to the beach, shopping and restaurants. Would definitely stay there again if owner did some updates to the place. Walls seemed to of been painted but ceiling really need a fresh coat it was extremely dirty. Pictures on the walls needed to be hung higher and more in line with the furnishings. This is a very cute and accomodating place and i dont mind paying a good price for my stay , but i expect a place to be extremely clean for that price. I dont know if they use a professional cleaning service or not but the place could use a deep cleaning. We had to wash the bathmats in both bathrooms as their were extremely dirty, the floors were dirty throughout the whole house, the couches could use a cleaning too.. The bedspreads needed a washing and possibly some airfreshers as the whole house had a body oder smell to it.
