Just Perfect

This is our 2nd year staying in this house and we couldn't be happier. The accomodations are excellent and the house is always up to date with any changes. The house is clean, neat and has everything you might need from the kitchen to the beach. My family loves this place. We look forward to coming back and staying here. The owners are outstanding and easy to work with. You will not be disappointed in this place. Best place in Gulf Shores!

Owner was super thoughtful in the home, making it very private / feel secluded from the neighbors in duplex. Enjoyed the ocean everyday, and used her thoughtful email with activities and restaurants as a guide since new to this location. Would def stay again! Was able to comfortably fit 8 adults.

Perfect location for a relaxing vacation with friends and family

Location is definitely the highlight of this rental! Traveling with 3 kids under the age of 10 meant lots of beach time and the adults appreciated that we didn’t need to be at the beach the entire time the kids wanted to be there. We loved seeing dolphins surfacing (and even sometimes jumping) each day of our stay. The beach was calm and I crowded for our December stay. And our host was very helpful with the one (completely unavoidable) issue we encountered.

Great stay!!!

We had a wonderful stay and loved the house. The location is great, you seriously couldn't ask for a better place! The owner was very responsive and fixed our one issue as soon as possible. The house was very clean and had plenty of space for 2 families and children. The outdoor shower was nice to get the sand off before coming in. The beach is only a few steps away and we had plenty of space on the beach every day. We'll definitely come back to stay here!

Kind of enjoyed our stay.

we loved how clean the space was but during our stay we kept getting bit by bugs while sleeping, i'm pretty sure they were bed bugs. A couple of kids in our family came back with head lice, as well. The beds need to be cleaned well, but the view is awesome.

Girls weekend

We had a wonderful time at your beach house. Access to beach items such as chairs and umbrellas was very helpful. We would have liked to have sheets for the fold out couch (I could have missed that in the listing), but the one on the mattress was soiled, so we were not able to use that bed. Overall wonderful time and stay!

Great stay in Gulf Shores

We were really happy with this Duplex in Gulf Shores. It was very nicely furnished but casual enough that you felt at home. Communications with the owner that were provided without having to ask were great, we had all the information in front of us BEFORE we got to the beach. Beds were comfortable, the kitchen was more than adequately stocked with dishes, pots and pans and utensils. One of the things we enjoyed the most was the sitting area under the structure. We were out of the sun and a soft breeze was usually blowing that made it a great spot for the kids to keep playing while the adults relaxed. Convenient and easy to get to, ten minutes to Walmart and many other places of interest. Would gladly stay there again!

Wonderful

We typically stay in the hotel/resort setting, even through Vrbo. We won’t be doing that anymore. Tina’s place sold us on staying here and it’s is the perfect place for our family of 5. My teenage boys loved it and said several times how much they enjoyed our vacation. I have told many many folks back at home how great it was. I would very much recommend staying here and will be doing so again when we make our way back to Gulf Shores.

Very good stay

Location is wonderful. Basically have your own beach area. Space in house was good. Only feedback I would have is that the cleaning service needs to be a bit better. Not much cleaning under or behind furniture. I would recommend.

Last minute get away.

The property is well situated on the main road. Right on the beach. the dune in front of the deck does not block your view of the ocean but blocks people on the beach so you have added privacy. The owners happened to be using the unit next door (the other half of the house) and were so nice, we got lots of pointers on the area. Loved it.

1st winter visit

Of course I’d chose the week that the entire nation was colder than usual but we still enjoyed a few days of sunshine on the deck and walks on the beach and even toes in the surf. House was perfect for the four of us and in a convenient location to stores and restaurants. My only suggest as part of a senior group would be grab bars in the bathrooms. Thanks for a good break from Illinois subzero temps!
