Property was very nice. We ended up not taking our dogs but they do have a fenced in yard. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was very nice. The beach was very close but there is a walk from the parking lot to the beach. Get your parking spot early. Not far from Gulf Shores.

Absolute Sanctuary at Galloway
The loveliest slice of heaven on the island. Nestled in the oak forest, you'll find peace, quiet, and everything you need for the perfect little beach vacation. Perfect host, super clean and modern, kind and friendly neighbors, close access to everything, and a beach right down the road. You won't find a better stay on the island! 10 out of 10 highly recommend.

My daughter after prom mini spring break vacation
From the first day I saw your property online I said yep this is it. Everything was perfect you definitely laid it out, the property is its own private area, the pictures don’t even top it for seeing it in person. Makes me want a whole new house. I didn’t leave the house the first night me and Cardi (my shitzu) stay in while the kids took a late night stroll at the beach. Even uber eats came and delivered with no problems. Jenn was very responsive she left everything out I didn’t have any questions nor issues but she made sure she was on standby if I needed anything. Just say my daughter enjoyed her prom mini spring break vacation. The plans were to do everything once we arrived but we didn’t check in until 8:30 that evening so I definitely kicked back like I was at home and enjoyed this beautiful comfortable house felt like my own house. The next day we ate did, some cleaning and check out, was well rested. First we went to the beach stay a hour, then we kick the evening off by going to OWA Tropical Fall resort. Stayed longer than planned we had a ball. And Jenn play a big part in it. Y’all book with her and don’t forget to sign her journal in the living room.

Perfect Stay!
We were so impressed with the property. It was super clean and absolutely beautiful. It’s hard to stay somewhere with a baby on the move, but we were so thankful for the cleanliness and had no qualms about letting him down to explore. Jeanne was kind and compassionate and super quick to respond. Anyone looking for a no stress stay needs to book this property! ❤️

Great place for the family.
Thank you for all your help to make our stay for our family just perfect. We loved the location and it met all our needs. The privacy was perfect. We also loved the area to have a camp fire and enjoy laughs. The 3 bedrooms allowed our family to spread out and have their own space. The place was well furnished. We enjoyed some meals out but loved the nights we stayed in and cooked. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks again for a wonderful experience.
