Our family had the best Thanksgiving at the Blue Marlin! The home was absolutely spotless and had everything we needed. Excellent supply of beach chairs, toys, etc. as well! The location is perfect-peaceful and quiet while only a short drive to the shops/restaurants. Thanks for a great stay- we would love to return!

Wonderful stay

This property was perfect for our group of seven. House was clean, well-stocked, organized, and had a great location. The beach was beautiful and not crowded. This property allowed us privacy away from the crowds, but close enough to get places quickly. We loved our stay!

Wonderful Fall Break

We had a wonderful stay during our fall break. The house was clean, comfortable and well equipped. The beach was a short walk from our back door and was quiet. Under the house there was storage for all the beach toys, chairs, umbrellas, etc which was very nice. Overall, wonderful stay and we hope to return!

Great location. Great property

The house is in an amazing location. The beach goes forever in either direction. There is a beautiful nature reserve just down the beach. The house is newly renovated. Everything is brand new and someone gave a lot of thought to decorating and kitting the place out.

Perfect house at the perfect location

This house was just what our group needed. Steps away from the water. Enough space between us and the neighbors that we didn’t feel like we were at an overly crowded beach. The house had a great layout, plenty of room to cook and hangout. And the view was spectacular! We will definitely stay here again if we visit gulf shores.
