Amazing! Huge home with large “everything you need and more” kitchen ready to cook for a big group. Fancy washer/dryer. All electronics and WiFi perfect. HVAC works great. Panoramic views from top decks. Shade on two lower decks and underneath. Small cooled garage for easy unloading, with second refrigerator. Elevator that serves as dumbwaiter or wheelchair access. Beach access, pool, and also pier with shaded gazebo on lagoon. Carpeted stairs, good for older dog, there were even some doggie gates in the closet. Our favorite of five rentals in Gulf Shores this year. Bre was attentive, helpful and kind. We will rent this unit again!

Location was great! Loved having an elevator for luggage! Backs were saved! Owner promptly responded to texts. Two of the five beds were good. Keys did not unlock the gate to the pool and fishing pier however. Having the beach toys and umbrellas were awesome! My grandchildren loved it! The property is well stocked and supplied for beach stays!

The elevator was the gold star of our vacation and made all the difference with aging parents with low mobility. The communication wasn’t timely. Amenities were in disrepair and unusable. And while I expect to bring many things to a vacation, batteries for the remote and toilet paper are not on my list.

We loved the location and how much space we all had in the house. The private beach area and access were very convenient! The pool was easily accessible and clean. The owner was quick to respond which was nice. The house definitely is not deep cleaned so don't be surprised at the crumbs and such in cabinets and drawers, but the owner does specify it's not deep cleaned. The overall condition of the house needs some repairs, but this didn't hinder our stay. The comments about the window in the upstairs bathroom being taped around is accurate and the bed off of the kitchen we found out wasn't very sturdy, but again the owner took care of that issue as quickly as she could when it broke. I did expect the house to be in a little better condition based on the pictures and price we paid, but it definitely needed some TLC. Again we loved the location and nothing hindered our stay with the condition of the house, we just were a little surprised.

It was a good vacation

It was a good vacation and the home was in a good location, but the home is in need of quite a bit of repairs. Multiple windows have duct tape on them. Several the ceiling fans do not work. You can tell in a lot hotter environment maybe during the summer, the air condition will struggle Lotta maintenance issues on the outside of the house.

Not a good experience

There were several things that were not as advertised. I found working with the homeowner was nearly impossible. I don’t know how you verify the condition the homes you promote, but I’m sure I’ll never do another VRBO.

Vacation at West Beach

We had a very nice stay. House is well appointed. Kitchen has all the need items. Deck on top level needs some attention, some rotting wood. Numerous lights out throughout the home, especially on the outside. Bre was very communicative. Our dog had a blast as did we.

Great Thanksgiving

My husband, daughter and her husband and 2 grandsons, one with his fiancé were in the house and there was plenty of room for us all. My husband uses a wheelchair and the elevator made our stay very easy with him. The beach access was great, just cross the road and you were there. Thank you Bre for allowing us to stay in your home. It made our Thanksgiving a special time.

Great for families

We enjoyed the location and space of this house. Pet friendly, in which we loved. Kitchen well equipped, plenty of towels and washcloths in bathrooms. Only negatives were loose boards on the main deck, doors sometimes hard to open and housekeeping could definitely improve. Windows dirty, hard to see through. Bathrooms need cleaned better and updated. Overall, we enjoyed our stay here.

Things you should know before you go

We had multiple issues with the HVAC, which caused trouble with people sleeping at night. Eventually, the situation got resolved, but at one point the property owner said we could just leave and be refunded the next night. They also have a lot of house rules that I have never dealt with in all my times of renting on VRBO. For example, all towels and washcloths must be washed and dried and folded before you leave the property. How is that possible? When check out is at 11 AM? So we literally left without being able to brush our teeth, wash our faces or take baths. There were signs of mold around the HVAC vents upstairs. That started a disagreement with the property owner and my wife. We will not use this property again. our entire family was disappointed with the HVAC issues and check out process rules. The property definitely needs some TLC. I would judge this place by the pictures you see on the app because they are probably old. The saltwater and humidity are rough on beach properties so they need constant maintenance. Luckily, we were still able to be together as a family and have a Nice time at the beach. We stayed away from The property as much as we could. We basically had somebody out to do something almost every day we were there. Definitely overpriced for what you get.
