GREAT TIME

Really enjoyed the quiet setting this place had to offer. The beach was not overflowing with multiple people and there was not the bustle of the big city. People were friendly and Fort Morgan was great. The home was wonderful and well stocked, communication with the owners were great. Thank you for a wonderful time

Want to come again!

We loved the quiet, peaceful atmosphere of the location, and the ease and beauty of the home. It is steps from the beach, which made the back and forth with babies very easy. The home was well stocked with kitchen appliances, games, blankets, towels, and beach supplies! The host responded immediately every time and was so kind. It was a wonderful vacation for us and we hope to come back again!

Just as amazing as the first time

This was our second trip to the Salty Pelican Tuex. We absolutely love the location and the house. We have a large group of 3 families and the space is all we need. Great location away from it all but just a quick drive away. The owners are very accomodating and easy to reach. Thanks again Shae!!

Amazing location

Shae was an amazing hostess. Wonderful communication throughout the entire stay. Couple things - very minor - would have been nice to have more drawer space in the bedrooms for storage of clothing and more chairs in the living room. But truly that didn’t take away from our beautiful experience. We adored her home!

Beautiful Property!!

Our family hosted a small wedding for my daughter at this beautiful property. It was the perfect sleeping arrangement for her and her bridesmaids. The large covered deck was perfect for the dinner after the wedding. We only had one small plumbing issue that was taken care of right away. Thanks so much for the memories!

Perfect! Only steps to the ocean! Clean! Highly recommend!

This house is literally just a few steps from the beautiful waters of the gulf! House was clean. We didn’t cook but the kitchen appeared to be well-appointed and remodeled. Beds were comfortable. Maybe because it is still winter, but could use additional table/chairs on the deck. Overall one of the nicest places I’ve stayed in at any beach. Would highly recommend and can’t wait to return!!

Loved It!

Our family has spent Easter break on the Gulf Coast several times. The Salty Pelican Tuex was our favorite accommodations yet. The house is beautifully remodeled, clean, comfortable and with many extras. Great view from the entire home of the beach, which is just steps away. The owner was great to work with, true to her word and quick response to all our questions. It is obvious she took extra care in making this home a wonderful place to vacation. We are very happy with our entire experience staying at the Salty Pelican Tuex. Thank you!

Great time for large families

We had a great time with two families and the grandparents. Shae was a fantastic host and very communicative via text thru the VRBO app! Beds we’re so so comfortable and the upgrades done to the home are top notch. So clean and fresh! Plenty of room for food/drinks. We cooked and grilled in the kitchen + outside grill every night and had a blast. We were only the second group to stay since COVID and I can only imagine Shae will only make it better with time!! Great memories made!

New Years on the Beach was Perfect!

Our stay at the Salty Pelican was everything we could have asked for in a vacation rental home. Steps to the beach in a beautiful home with an awesome view. Dolphins every day and even the Blue Angles performing practice tricks in front of the condo during the week. There were plenty of beach chairs for everyone in our group (13) and beach toys for the kids. The house is 15 minutes from Gulf Shores and everything the area has to offer. We loved the secluded feel the house gave us. Shae was wonderful and always available to answer any questions. We will definitely be back!

Family Christmas Vacation

Beautiful beach home. Plenty of room for a large family. The location is the best! The Home is absolutely gorgeous! Shea (the owner) was easy to communicate with and a wonderful host. It was the very 1st time our 4 year old twin grandchildren had ever been to the beach or ever seen the ocean. It was magical seeing this experience through their eyes. I would definitely recommend this beautiful home and this fabulous host. It was also a plus that the location is very close to two of our favorite Fort Morgan restaurants.....Sassy Bass and Tacky Jack's. Thank you again Shea for sharing your beautiful home with our family!

A Wonderful Escape!

From the time we pulled up to the property to the time we walked in, it was total wow factor. What a great place. Our whole group felt right at home. Very private area with very little beach goer's. We were in our own little world. Everything is very well kept and laid out really well. Instruction were on point. We went out looking for sand crabs with success. We also awoke one morning to find a bunch of dolphins out swimming around and putting on a show. Just a great time! Mrs. Murders, thank you for all of your prompt communication and for allowing my family, friends and I to stay in this home. We had an amazing time and will definitely be visiting again in the near future.

Beach House

Great home a couple of issues was the box hanging down under the home. I hit my head and got a concussion. My fault I wasn’t paying attention but could be dangerous. We picked up several nails from under the house so we ended up not parking underneath the home. It wasn’t as clean as I would have liked lots of sand still on the rugs and under the bed hadn’t been cleaned in a while. Other than that it was a beautiful house and was great for our family.
