We had a great week in the Castle! When I booked, I thought I'd have more company than we actually had, but regardless it was a great place - so close to the beach access, very spacious, plenty of room for everyone. Love that there is a bathroom for each bedroom. Everyone likes that! The owner was very responsive and kind. There was plenty of parking, great outdoor showers, nice new BBQ, kitchen well stocked, an extra fridge for drinks, everything was quite nice.

This was a excellent house for a large group - big rooms and plenty of bathrooms. We had lots of room to spread out and the location is stunning. It's outside the hustle and bustle of the busy traffic areas around Gulf Shores, and being able to just walk across the street to get to the beach is a dream. The kitchen had an impressive amount of dinnerware and supplies for making dinner for a large group.Our very nice host was responsive and informative. We will consider renting here again!

Our large group thoroughly enjoyed our week at the Beach Castle. The home is fully equipped for all your beach needs. A very well stocked kitchen with plenty of pots/pans, cutlery and extra dishes. The 3 refrigerators and upstairs kitchen worked great for a crowd. Close proximity to the beach for easy access back and forth with little ones.

Great family house

Loved how big the house was and that we all had our own bathrooms. It was great that there was a washer and dryer upstairs and downstairs. The house was big enough that we could all gather together but also have our privacy. The beach and pool was pretty much empty the whole time. . So peaceful and quiet in the neighborhood. Sitting on any of the balconies was very relaxing.

Great vacation house for a big family!

Plenty of rooms for everyone! We stayed here with our kids and nine grandkids (ages 8 - two infants) & had a wonderful time! Each bedroom has its own bathroom and there are half baths in each laundry room. The description is accurate- you are steps from the beach & two pools! The beach was beautiful and not crowded. The kitchens had everything we needed. And, Laura was always quick with communication. We’ve already booked for next summer!

Great Place for a Gathering of Friends

We enjoyed gathering with college friends at the Beach Castle. This was our 6th time getting together and this home was perfect. The spacious bedrooms with privates baths along with the large dining table were just what we needed (The 3 refrigerators, 2 laundry rooms, 2 kitchens exceeded our expectations!) Laura, the owner, was very easy to work with and responded quickly to all of my questions. The home is across the street from the beach, but the views from the house are good. October Was a wonderful time to go to the beach.
