Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
We stayed in this house for a kid-free getaway, with 10 adults occupying the house. It was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the beach daily. As we stayed in the house during June/July 2020, it was nice to be in a less crowded area of Gulf Shores, which still allowed for good social distancing. If you're looking for a spacious and nice location for relaxing and enjoying the beach, this fits the bill!
