Great beach house! Beautifully furnished, comfortable beds, great kitchen and plenty of fun games and puzzles for the kids. Plenty of space for parking and a 3 minute walk to the inter coastal waterway for fishing. We caught several decent size crabs right from the dock. The beach was also easily accessible. Eric and Regina were wonderful to work with and very responsive to emails and questions. We highly recommend The Big Bama Beach House for a great stay in Gulf Shores!

I enjoyed the area surrounding this property. Although the owner accused me of falsely reporting not having hot water upon arrival . The place wasn’t clean enough for my standards . The place also appeared to be used for personal use often. The pictures look significantly better than the actual property. There was also water leaking onto the patio from the home above.

5 Star Stay

We enjoyed our stay at the beach house so much. Great location, very clean and family-friendly. We would definitely rent again if going to Gulf Shores. Here's a list of some of the places we visited that we enjoyed. The Hangout, not great food, but very entertaining for the kids. Lulu's was a lot of fun for the kids, they loved the arcade. Adventure Island was a blast, highly recommended.
