Everything was great and the owner was so flexible!

We were so happy with the house. We really enjoyed the patio swing and chair area. We were traveling with young children and the owner was flexible with check in and checkout to accommodate nap time. We were so appreciative and would come back!

As described and great location

Property was clean and easy to keep clean. Plenty of dinnerware/cookware. Appliances worked as intended. Plenty of TVs with plentiful TV/streaming subscription viewing options. Plenty of sleeping space. Property is in close proximity to beach, stores, and restaurants. Towns outside of the immediate are just a short drive away. All within our party were very please with this place. Thank you.

Perfect location

We travel and stay a lot of places and I will say this is one of the best places we have stayed. I was hesitant because it was across the street from the beach but the walk was no different from walking from a condo. It was a very short walk and very convenient location. The house was stocked well with everything that you could need and there were even snacks there. I can’t say enough good things about this rental. The owner was in touch checking in making sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely stay here again.

Great condo for a large group!

Our group of 14 (12 adults and 2 children) really enjoyed our stay here! The condo was clean, spacious, and thoroughly equipped. The owner was super quick to respond to any questions we had, and even offered to reimburse us for groceries when we thought something was wrong with the fridge! (The fridge ended up being ok, but he was super generous to accommodate any food we may have lost). The condo is a short walk to the beach as stated in the description. We brought wagons to carry our things to the beach and the condo also had one available for use as well. We were able to walk to dinner on the nights we wanted to walk, or we would take a 2 min drive into town to park and eat or shop. Overall, it was a great place to stay and we would look into this condo again for a large group!

Great location and plenty of room

This house has plenty of room and is conveniently located to major attractions in Gulf Shores. The bunk room upstairs was very spacious and gave the kids somewhere to hangout, plus there are 2 separate living rooms (one downstairs, and one upstairs) It was an easy walk to the beach. We had a great time !
