Perfect! Exactly as described and better. Easy walk to the beach, and all shops on the strip. Pool was amazing for just relaxing and soaking in the sun. Can’t wait to return next year.

I was the guest of record for this reservation. I was not present during the stay. Communication with the host was professional, and I will review any post-stay concerns through the proper VRBO channels.
Beautiful home in a great location. Easy walk to beach and restaurants. I would definitely recommend this home for a large group. All the beds were comfortable! We really enjoyed the private pool.
What a great location - not too far from beach, walking distance to restaurants & stores . Short drive to other great locations . Pool was great and house was beautiful & accommodated our group of 9. We would definitely stay here again
We try to stay somewhere between Ft Morgan and Perdido. This has been the cleanest and best property we have rented so far. Perfect layout, with plenty of space for 10 adults. The pool was amazing after hot hours at the beach and at night. We really loved our time there.
Very nice and super close to everything. The only down was in the master bathroom the toilet handle was sitting on the back of the commode. Was not a big deal for us cause there was another bathroom available on the floor
Property was beautiful! Location was great! Definitely need some lights outside, it's was to dark, to be able to enjoy the pool, at night, which is something we always do , on vacation. I actually went & bought some lights.
We really enjoyed staying here…close drive to the beach (we drove due to having a canopy and there were designated areas specifically for the canopies). Rooms were very nice. Wi-Fi service was not great and tv service would lose connection at night. Other than that, no issues.
We really enjoyed the week at Beach blues . Wifi was not great but was not a concern as it kept the teenagers off of Tik Tok LOL. Some of the outdoor patio furniture could use some updating but again not a big concern. House was spacious and worked well for our family . Pool was a great. Everything was as described.
We had a fantastic time here for our annual family vacation. There was plenty of space for our party of 7 adults and 5 kids ranging from 4 to 17 to spread out and spend time together or escape for a little piece and quiet. The pool was perfect for our littles to jump and splash around in and the chairs were great for us to sit back and relax while watching them! The beach supplies were great with lots of chairs and toys to plays with. We got to see a beautiful thunderstorm our last night with great views of the lightning from the top deck. Would love to have had some furniture on more of the decks to sit outside, instead of just the one off the main living space. The owner was super responsive and helpful. She responded immediately when we had a little pool murkiness issue and got the pool guy out to us the very next day. Overall a great place to stay with a large family!

Great Home and Location for a Large Group
We had a lovely long weekend in this Beach House! We had a group of 12 adults and two children, and there was plenty of room for us! The house was very clean and beautifully decorated. We were able to walk to the beach and some restaurants easily. We also cooked a few meals in the house with no issues. The only thing that would make it better would be to have a pool. This was our first time renting as a group, and everything went very smoothly. It was nice being able to rent for only 3 nights (rather than a whole week). We would definitely rent this house again! Thank you :)
This was our annual end of Summer family vacation. Our grandchildren had never been to the Gulf Coast so we chose Gulf Shores as our destination. This property was fantastic. It was in a great location with short walks to beach access. The house easily accommodated our needs for 6 adults and 3 children, the A/C was great providing relief from high humidity and August heat, and the private salt water pool was the icing on the cake! We were in the pool the majority of each day and evening. Communications with the property manager were easy via text message for any questions or concerns we had. We will definitely consider staying here again if we return to the Gulf Shores area. Great property!
No colander for draining pasta. Can opener didn’t work. Bought both.pans were scratched up. First floor bathroom refused to flush and constantly plugged up. If I was the owner, I’d definitely stay here for a week or more to work out the bugs. Other than that, it’s a beautiful home. Would stay again.
It was a nice house. It was clean. We were told there would be starter supplies for shampoo, toilet paper, soap, etc but that was not the case. Dollar General was close and it was an easy fix. Great porches on the house but only 3 chairs for for 4 decks so 3 decks had no furniture and were unable to use them at all. Pool was terrific and several pool items to play with. We added to the collection while we were there. I had contacted Janet to find out the house location for golf carts but she did not respond to me. VRBO finally gave me the house address and I didn't find out until the day before we were supposed to check in that golf carts are not allowed in that area.

Spacious Enough for Family Reunion of 11
Family Reunions can be tricky, you want plenty of time together, but having time apart also helps. This lovely home met all those needs. The 5 bedrooms and large living room-dining room kitchen space & many decks allowed room for fun family activities as well as some alone time. The kitchen had everything we needed to create great dinners and having both a Keurig and coffee maker allowed those that were up and out early to make just enough coffee for them. Their were plenty of chairs and a couple of rockers on the back deck that were utilized constantly. It was a great place to start and end the day. Having Netflix in each room was helpful when alone time was needed. The HVAC worked heroically on some really hot days. Having a washer and dryer was super helpful for wet swimsuits & beach towels. The master bedroom was amazing with the huge bath and jetted tub. The beds were very comfortable and I enjoyed some amazing nights of sleep. The outdoor shower helped keep the tracking of sand down. It is an amazing location, walking distance of lots of cool things. My only word of advice is the stairs can be slick when wet. Make sure you hold fast to the banisters when you are going down after a rain. It is a long tumble if you don't. You don't want to see the bruises from that. But overall the 11 of us ages 12-83 had a marvelous time and it was our favorite vacation home to date. It was set up well with whatever you needed to ensure lots of fun family memories and the backdrop for some amazing family photos!
