This house was exactly as pictured! We were able to bring both of our for babies and have the best time. The house was equipped with everything we needed-we love staying in this area

The unit is conveniently located and very clean with nearly all of the anticipated furnishings. Ideally for us, the amenities would include additional TV’s. My group included my mentally handicapped son who enjoys television and we were indoors due to weather for a couple of days so the situation was exacerbated. Two of the octogenarians found the entry steps challenging but admittedly this comment may influenced by our ages.

This was a fabulous home and just what we needed to gather family and play at the beach! It was super clean with comfy beds….and the location was perfect! Thank you for a wonderful stay. We will be back!

My family stayed at this house while our daughter competed in a Beach Volleyball tournament. We chose it due to the ease of walking distance to the beach and the quiet neighborhood. We would gladly stay here again due to the location, comfort, spaciousness and overall satisfaction of working with the owners.

We would stay again! The location was great and the owners were very accommodating with our dog. The only thing is the lock on the door we had trouble with at times. 😊

The property is located within walking distance of the beach but is tucked away from the busyness of the large condominiums. The interior is comfortable, AC was cold, and the hosts were responsive and helpful. Our group has been taking trips together for 6 years in a row now and this was the most hassle-free, relaxing, and enjoyable place we have stayed! Highly recommend.

We really enjoyed the stay in the beach house. Everything was nice and clean and orderly. Enjoyed the backyard with the pups and loved the porch swing. Nice area to take walks and all restaurants and stores are close by. Would definitely like to book again.

My husband and I had a great stay here, celebrating his recent retirement. The home is clean, comfortably furnished and very conveniently located near the beach and many shops and restaurants. There were plenty of dishes, towels, blankets, pillows, etc. We loved that it was in a neighborhood setting, making it easy to get out and walk the dogs and not have to worry about heavy traffic. We would definitely look to stay here again, the next time we are in Gulf Shores!

This was perfect for our family vacation. Sorry we didn’t get to visit, our days got busier than expected. Maybe next time. 😉 Thank you for having us!

From the moment we booked this house the host were super informative and responsive. They even allowed us to check in early which rarely happens when we travel. The house was clean, cute and cozy. My fur baby loved the back yard and my husband loved the location. It was around the corner from the liquor store and across the street from the beach. We will definitely stay here in the future.

This is a great property, conveniently close to all of our favorite Gulf Shores locations and just a short walk to the public beach (Literally, over a half block and up one block to safely cross the main street at a stoplight / crosswalk). We stayed at the end of the summer season in August, so there were a few wear and tear things that were likely just a matter of being used all summer, but otherwise, it was perfect for our family. Fantastic communication, easy check-in / check-out, and a great experience start to finish.

We stayed for two nights. Everything was clean when we arrived. We needed to reach out to the hosts for a couple of things and they were super responsive. The home is within walking distance to some great restaurants, shops, and the beach. We brought our dog and he was very comfortable in the home. There is a really nice backyard and plenty of outdoor space to enjoy. We will definitely be back!

This location was an easy walk to the beach so need to pay for parking. There was ample space in the house for us and our two kids. My 3 and 1 yo appreciated the tic tac toe board and little blocks to play with and especially loved the sand in the driveway area to play in when it was a little cold and windy at the beach.

The house is very easy to find with great access to the beach, restaurant and shopping. Very comfortable size and plenty of items to cook with for those that don’t want to eat out every night. The neighborhood was quiet which made it nice to be able to sit outside and enjoy the scenery. Everything was in walking distance including the beach and if not within walking distance it was only a short drive away! Pictures are slightly different than in person but overall very happy with our stay here and would look forward to coming back in the future !

Property was very clean. Furnishings were nice and as pictured. Location was also convenient to beach and dining. Front door stuck upon opening, which was a little inconvenient. More toilet paper, paper towels and trash bags would have been appreciated.

It was very easy checking in and out and out. My dogs liked the back yard and it’s two blocks from the beach. Plenty of kitchen and living room space. Outdoor shower is useful for the dogs and the sand from the beach. A couple of very minor cosmetic issues (like the front door isn’t perfectly squared) but we never tan out of hot water (a big deal to me), and we all had a great time
