Views of the bay are incredible- and the sound of lapping waves will relax you immediately upon arrival. The home is nicely decorated and very well appointed. The host (Tina) communicated well throughout the whole pre rental and rental period. Fresh flowers and coffee were a nice touch. We very much enjoyed staying here!

Sweet Retreat ion the Bay

This was our fifth girls trip and we selected Fairhope, Alabama after a recommendation from my niece. Our lovely cottage provided a breathtaking view for all of us. Tina was extremely helpful from the very beginning and for as the spokesman for the group, this was just what the doctor ordered - a peaceful and charming cottage that even had it’s own pier where I spent several early mornings. We are grateful and lucky to have found such special spot and hope to return one day!.
