The BEST vacation ever!

We had the greatest time! The house was AMAZING! The view when you walk in is breathtaking! Rooms are beautiful. Beach was GORGEOUS. Our 11yo loved sitting on the balcony and watching the dolphins. Our boys(14 and 15) had a blast looking at all the crabs at night(there were so many). All three kids loved the pool and snorkeling everyday! You also aren’t that far from all of the fun of Gulf Shores! This is the perfect location if you want a fun, no fuss, beautiful family vacation!

Family Vaca

Loved the duplex and pool. The beach was close enough for a 75 year old with 4 artificial joints to go to the beach and back. All the family loved the huge long table that fit all of us!!!! We enjoyed it very much!! The Skipper’s

Large Family Get Together

This Beach House was an absolutely perfect vacation spot for our large family. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the views of the Gulf and the pristine white sand beach. The house itself was spacious and had all the amenities we could have asked for. The location was perfect for us, as it was just a short drive from Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, but far enough away to feel like we had our own private oasis.

Misleading

First, there was nothing in the listing that indicated this was a shared property. There are 2 sides to this home. So… you share parking. But most of all you share the pool. Disappointed to say the least. 39 people sharing a small pool. I do t think so. Next is cleanliness. Being at the beach you would expect sand to be an issue. But not when you check in. The entire lower floor was gritty and sandy. Obviously no one cleaned under any furniture. One roll of toilet paper per bathroom, no extra. The downstairs bathroom had 1/2 a roll. One partial roll of paper towels. We have short term rentals. Imperative for comfort to have extra. Disappointed at best.

It’s a SPLIT UNIT HOUSE. and the next door neighbors are very rude. But the unit is very clean

Just be careful what you rent now days.

2022 Family Vacation

Our family loved so much about this property. It has enough space for a large family to spread out when needed. The pool was very nice & the proximity to the beach made it easy to go back & forth frequently throughout the day. Overall was a great place. The only thing I would have changed is to have a few 'staples' like coffee, sugar.... All of the other VRBOs we have used in the past have had a small amount of these things to get us started. One even had a welcome basket with snacks. We did find a great little store just down the road to pick up a few things & we were able to get groceries delivered to the house. But definitely would go back to this one. It is a great area.

Peaceful

Beautiful house with pool directly on the beach without all the chaos of Orange Beach/Gulf Shores. Great amenities! House is showing wear on the deck. There were spindles missing that could turn into a huge problem if someone were to fall. The deck around the pool is sagging in areas and again could cause a huge problem if someone fell through. The bathroom upstairs (bunk room) has clearly had water damage between the sink and shower. There was mold present. Not trying to pick but when you pay that much money for that short of time, you do not expect to find these things. Overall we were very pleased with the location, house and amenities. Great family vacation for our big group.
