WeCelebrated our 50th anniversary with our family here. It was exactly what we needed. The hosts were delightful to work with. One day, due to some heavy winds, quite a bit of sand blew through into the pool. I texted the host at dinner time to see if there was something we could do to help clean it. She had her pool guy there by 9:00 that night to clean the pool and make it pristine so we could swim the next morning. I. Highly recommend this lovely place.

Beautiful home and quiet location!

We loved staying at this beach house! The kids loved the pool and NBA Jam! The house was a quick walk to the beach and had everything we needed. It was a short drive into town for food but we were also able to cook at the house. The owners were very responsive and the house was in great shape. We would definitely recommend to others and plan to stay again next time we head to Gulf Shores!

Great beach

Overall we had a nice relaxing stay. The home is super close to the beach which is quiet and private.The deck is a great spot to relax in the morning with coffee and the evening with wine. Nice breeze and views.We had a few issues with appliances not working and smells from the neighbors dogs that hampered our time in the pool.Otherwise we had a nice stay.

Quiet Paradise

We travel a lot and I yet have to be disappointed in our places with VRBO or the owners. They have all been great and this place was no exception. The house more than accommodated our needs. Just a few steps to the beach to relax and play during the day and a lighted pool to play in at night. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and Kapsur were very professional, polite, and quick to respond to any of my messages. Highly Recommend!

Huels

It was a great stay. If I had to make a complaint it would just be the pan selection in the kitchen, small selection of pans for a large group, but we made it work. We would return; clean, quiet beach, nice pool, spacious house. Another recommendation would be to put bunk beds in the ‘game room’. There is a closet in this room and it could accommodate more if it were made a true bedroom.

House was wonderful, accommodations were great for our family (4 adults, 7 kids). It was a little further from the beach than expected but still just a short neighborhood walk to the private beach access. Pool was cleaned while we were there by pool service and someone even came to pull our trash cans to the curb then put them back under the carport. We did pay the rental fee for the beach items and the storage room was full of rafts, sand toys, chairs, a wagon etc. the wagon was great for transporting items to and from the beach each day. If you need more shade, you may consider calling one of the services that offer canopy tents that can stay out the whole week (we saw a lot of them from Beach Bums but they were sold out of the canopies for our week).

Perfect getaway

Our stay at The Jewel Sea Bungalow was a dream. Beautiful aww home, so clean, quick response from owners, everything is there that you need! My parents, my family of 4 and my brother’s family of 4 all stayed in the home and we didn’t feel like we were on top of each other. The pool was clean and a nice way to wear the kiddos out. With just a short trip to the beach, we felt like we were living in a dream. The house is all new and updated. Checkout was simple. Only complaints: up charges for add-ons. Early checkin (literally an hour before)=pay extra, beach toys=pay extra, and so on. The water from the fridge wouldn’t work even after following the directions given by the owner. Last complaint was the inability to enjoy the fire pit due to overgrowth of grass around it. The bugs ate us alive as it was up on the porch, so down in the grass near the fire pit was an itchy nightmare. Wish it was just sand to and around the pit or have the rock pool deck extend out past the fire pit. These are small nit picks and only given as recommendations for improvement. Overall, we would absolutely recommend the house and owners and would definitely stay again.
