Nice Relaxing Vacation Spot

We booked "Be As You Are" for a last minute beach trip. The house is close to beach access and right across the street from the beach so you still get the relaxing sounds of the waves and beach views from the balcony. The recent renovations were nice and the house was clean when we arrived. Great spot to go to the beach without the crowds of OBA or Gulf Shores.

We had the most perfect stay! The size of the house was just perfect for our family and our pets. The balcony was a plus for the dogs, they enjoyed a lot of outside time ! Location is perfect as well, just a few steps from the beach access. There were enough linens and towels for everyone, kitchen had everything we needed! Pam was very quick to answer and very accommodating to our needs. We would definitely come back !

Peaceful, Easy Feeling

This property is in a quiet neighborhood and a beautiful location. There was very minimal traffic or sounds from neighbors. The ocean is visible from the deck of this home and the beach was never crowded. I highly recommend this home and will be looking forward to my next stay here.

Great Beach House

This is our 2nd time staying here and we absolutely love it! It’s a very nice house and we love that we can take our dog! The deck is probably our favorite. It has a gate so our dog can roam freely, it is partially covered & the other part is in the sun, plus you can see the beach from the deck! It is a very short walk to the beach & the neighborhood is great for walking dogs!

Awesome Rental

Awesome rental house for close access to the beach & ocean. Beach access point was two doors down which was convenient for having 3 little’s and a pup! Could see and hear the ocean from the gated deck and the outside shower / clean off station was a great touch! We’d definitely consider coming back, hopefully when there isn’t another hurricane off the coast!
