Family get away
The location was perfect, we were just across the street from the beach and easily accessible. Plenty of room for all of us…..3 adults and 3 children. Most of the place was clean enough but really needs a deep cleaning. The banisters into the unit and up to master bedroom, along with the plastic deck chairs were very grungy. All in all we had a wonderful time. Your beaches are beautiful and we really lucked out with the weather. We would definitely choose this place again.

Family vacation
The place and location was good. However, when we opened cabinets to get plates bugs scattered. Needless to say we ate out. The host apparently changed the Internet provider and didn't update the information, so we had to contact the property manager to get the info. The refrigerator wasn't working properly and again we had to contact the property manager.

Retirement Beach Trip
This was a great size for eight of us. Spent a lot of time on the deck and in the pool loved having our own pool and not having to share with tons of people was about a five minute walk, which was perfect. We did do quite a bit of cooking in the unit, just because we wanted to stay in and enjoy the pool and the beach. Any questions I have the manager got back to me quickly and we had no problems at check-in. Stay again in a heartbeat. !❤️❤️

Could have been better
I will start off by saying the location was good. Its just a short distance from the beach. The pool was a great addition. The place itself was nice and spacious. My complaint is with management. The dryer in the unit did not work. I emailed the company on July 4th notifying them. They sent someone to take a look on the 5th. The maintenance man said it needed to be repaced. NO ONE EVER CAME TO REPLACE IT! I made several calls and each time was told they would check with maintenance and call me back. THEY NEVER DID! We had to use beach towels at bath time because we ran out of clean towels. For the money we paid, we expected better from the company!

Perfect for family
The layout was nice since we had older family & younger. It allowed seperate fanily spaces. There are 2 sets of stairs so lighter luggage helps & maybe bring a baby gate for littles. There was a closet on the entry floor with some beach items we used then also left some toys & things we didn't take home. The pool is small when sharing with neighbors but we used the beach as much as possible.

Fantastic Beach Getaway
Lovely property that was just perfect for our family vacation! The location was ideal for us - easy access to the beach, which was much less crowded than other parts of Gulf Shores. The pool was a great addition - we really enjoyed spending time there. Wonderful view of the beach from the porch - great spot to have coffee in the mornings and wind down in the evenings. The house had everything we needed for a beach getaway. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Perfect Oasis
Bringing babies to the beach and young kids can always be a little hassle at times but this place has the perfect location and everything needed for my family! The pool and outdoor shower were great because the kids could swim whenever they want and also rinse off all the sand from the beach! The beach is a short walk from the house and right down the road from Waves which we used every day!
