Island Time

** Must be 25 or older to rent**

It's Island Time! Your much needed getaway is waiting for you in the gorgeous Island Time home in Gulf Shores, AL! The location of this beach cottage cannot be beat. Those white sandy beaches and clear, emerald waters that you've been waiting for are just a short walk across the street! Many other hotspots like The Hangout and Picnic Beach are within a mile's distance. Take a dip in the gated, community pool, or soak in that cool, beach breeze on the balcony. Just pull up, and prepare to enjoy the perfect location to gather some peace and tranquility!

Step into a new, relaxing world upon entering this beautiful 3-bedroom/ 3.5-bathroom property. Head up the stairs and admire the super spacious, open floor plan that connects the living room, dining room, and kitchen to keep the whole family together! The modern furnishings, decor, and electronics in this location are of top-quality and invite you to truly enjoy every aspect of your stay. Smart TVs with cable and access to many streaming services are readily available for your party! The kitchen provides modern, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and is fully stocked for your cooking needs. Step out to rest on the garden-view balcony for some of that refreshing, beach breeze!

On the first level, the Master bedroom holds a TV and a cozy, queen-size bed; this bedroom is beautifully bright with a light, airy color palette to give off that Beachy feeling. The private bathroom is designed with gorgeous, modern fixtures and a huge walk-in shower! Two bedrooms and two bathrooms can be found on the second level. In the first bedroom, you will find another cozy, queen-size bed and a full bathroom with a tub/shower combo. The second bedroom contains two twin-size bunk-beds with plush stuffed animals for your little ones; the last bathroom is connected to this room and holds a tub/shower combo to soak away the sun and sand of the day! Even on vacation the need for clean clothes prevails so there is a stacked washer and dryer on the main level.

We came down to run a 10k at gulf state park. This location was so close to the race, it was great! Parking was a little tight, not sure if a full size truck would fit.. Everything was clean and as expected!

Very enjoyable in great location!
We loved our stay at this property. The house is beautiful and had almost everything we needed. The microwave didn't work when we got there, but mid-week we were asked if they could come replace it and they did. Some of the toilet paper holders were loose causing the rolls to keep falling off, but overall things were very nice. Would stay there again and recommend to friends.

Highly Disappointed
Our stay was just “ok.” We would not stay at this location again for several reasons, 1. The microwave, ice maker/water on the fridge, and toaster did not work. 2. A man’s shirt was found under the couch. 3. Toilet paper hanger was broken. 4. Brown dried liquid stuff splattered all over the wall and blinds in the foyer. 5. Bugs were found crawling in the master bedroom/bathroom. 6. Overall, the house was just plain dirty.

The location was fabulous! We loved being next to the pool and walking distance to the beach. House was very clean. The property had 2 toasters but neither worked, which was disappointing as we had brought bagels for breakfast each day. The wifi was also very slow.

Beautiful and Clean
The property was beautiful and a short walk to the beach. Far enough away from the “nightlife” to have quiet evenings, but close enough to walk to entertainment and dining. We found the home perfectly cleaned and disinfected when we arrived which was wonderful! The only thing we had concern over were the bunk beds as they seemed slightly unstable, but all worked out. Would definitely recommend this property to those visiting the area!

Spectacular Beach Cottage Getaway
We came to Gulf Shores for our girls to play in a large beach volleyball tournament and needed a place close to the venue large enough to share with their partners’ family. We hit the jackpot! The unit was spacious, beautifully decorated, and perfectly located. Thank you for providing a wonderful home away from home!!

This place was perfect for our family vacation. We loved the cottage and the location was amazing. Even though it is across the street from the beach, it was super easy to access it. Everything about the process of booking, check-in, the stay, and check-out was simple. We will definitely look at staying here again the next Gulf Shores trip we take.

Nice stay at Island Time
The house was really big and nice. The location is great with a short walk to the beach, restaurants and shops. It was nice having a pool but the chairs in the pool area need to be replaced. There were a few maintenance issues that need to be addressed in the house and the wifi was bad. Overall I enjoyed my stay and would recommend this property.
