We thoroughly enjoyed this property. Everything was immaculately, clean, and beautiful views of the bay and the ocean. The home is very close to the ocean, the pool, and restaurants! The host was wonderful with communication and made everything easy when booking! We would highly recommend this property!

Everything was exactly as described and just as we had expected. We felt very comfortable, and the sea—with its beautiful beach—was truly just 60 seconds away. The kids enjoyed the pool and made full use of all the beach toys, while we, of course, appreciated the beach chairs and sun protection, such as the umbrella and pop-up sunshade. We even thoroughly enjoyed cooking our Easter feast in the fully equipped kitchen. We simply cannot praise enough how wonderful everything was (5 adults, 2 kids). We hope to return soon. Thank you, Mr. Richard, for this perfect place.

We had a wonderful trip. Check in was easy and we had no issues. The home is beautiful and location to the beach and bay access was perfect for our family. My son loves to fish so being able to fish on the beach and off the dock made it so nice. This side of Gulf Shores tends to be a little quieter which makes it nice, but still a quick drive to many restaurants! We would definitely stay again. Thank you!

Host was wonderful!! Richard answeredall my questions promptly and steered me through the rental process. (My first experience renting a condo vs staying in hotel). He was on standby and kept me updated. The condo was immaculate and very comfortable. It met all my expectations. We were having a get together with friends and we all enjoyed the cottage. It felt like home!
