We had the best time here !

We had such a great time at this property. I enjoyed that it’s location was near everything. And with it being 3 stories we all had our own space when it was time to unwind for the day. We got to sit on the porch and watch dolphins play around while enjoying our morning coffee. We have already looked into reserving this property for our trip next year !

Great House

The house was everything we expected and more. Being in a private neighborhood was great for the kids. All the aminities were clean and well kept. Out of all the houses we have rented this is our favorite. Having access to the bay and beach gives you best of both worlds.

Excellent property

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the home. The location on the bay was ideal and would be hard to beat by any other property. It was a quiet, safe neighborhood. Waking up and drinking coffee on the porch overlooking the water was so relaxing! The bay is gorgeous and the wildlife was enjoyable to observe! The property was large enough for our group and had everything we needed. The beds were incredibly comfortable and the towels and linens were clean and soft. Thank you for that!! There were a couple of areas that weren’t cleaned as well but I think they were just overlooked. Overall, the property was clean and neat. The unusual decorations and feather sofa were interesting. The kitchen utensils were a little eclectic but sufficient and we made do. The beach access was a little iffy since we had to cross the busy road to get to it but with patience, it worked. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking to stay in Orange Beach. It’s a fantastic rental! Benjy communicated the information we needed. The communication was frustrating for me because VRBO wouldn’t load the inbox or let me send him a message when I wanted to the last day. VRBO seemed to be down on and off over several days. That has nothing to do with him, however. He was a good host.
