Great location. Really enjoyed all the windows on both living floors. Also, the two living areas worked great for our daughter's young family being on the bottom floor. Some minor fixes could be done on some things, but really not an issue. Liked that most of the furniture was "livable" and kid friendly especially at the beach. Lots of beach stuff available which was much appreciated. Patio furniture was in great shop. Would definitely recommend this beach house.

Family Vacation

Great place to stay. Had 9 adults with 4 children and had lots of room. Private and peaceful, don’t have to fight for your own view of the ocean because it has its own beach. The beach and home were beautiful. The pool was great and just a 1 minute walk. Owners were easy to work with and very responsive.
No boom boxes, just the sound of the surf.
No need to rush to to the beach to claim a spot because it’s all yours.

Glorious Beach Time

We were amazed as we walked into the property. It is truly as gorgeous as the pictures show and description was exactly what we experienced. We were able to eat most all meals around the big dining room and loved the convenience of walking right out to the beach The garage was loaded with beach toys and games. So many great family memories made.

Nice location nice neighborhood overall nice house. I think it just needed a deep clean. The kitchen drawers were kind of dirty and disorganized and a couple of the kitchen cabinet doors look like they were gonna fall off. Overall, everyone had a good day thank you for sharing your property with us.

Amazing House

This property is beautiful. The beach is steps away and you have it all to yourself. Several rooms and a great second living room that our teens enjoyed having their own space. Each floor has its own large balacony. Several places for outdoor eating and dolphin watching. The night sky is spectacular. We saw shooting stars every night.

My family and I had an amazing time on vacation at this property. It easily accommodated the 13 people who were in our group. The property was beautiful and had direct access to the beach. Plenty of space and had activities and sand toys for the kids to use. Neighborhood was quiet and not overcrowded. I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay while in Gulf Shores.

Perfect family vacation home

Our family of 15 spent the week here and we loved it. We go to the Gulf as a group every other year, and are always looking for a place to meet our needs/wants. The bedrooms accommodated us all, though the odd layout does take getting used to. The beds are comfortable. We loved all the outdoor seating options. We really enjoyed the quiet location and private beach. This is the first time that we’ve rented a house without a private pool, and the community pool worked out well. It’s just a minute walk away, and the kids are old enough now to be okay without close supervision. A bonus that we didn’t expect is that the neighborhood has a nature walk with a boardwalk and pier into the lagoon. We enjoyed fishing here. Andrea communicated very well and was helpful with any questions I had. I would love to stay here again.

Great Stay

The property was well appointed and very clean. Great location, as the beach was private, and we virtually had the beach to ourselves. If you are looking for a terrific place that is away from all the tourism this is it. You have to drive 5-20 min for restaurants, but its a very easy drive. There are beach chairs provided which was nice as well. Oh, and the pool was a great change of pace for the grandkids.. Andrea was very responsive and easy to work with. We would definitely stay again!

Family Getaway

We had a wonderful time at Tween Waters. It is difficult to match expectation with reality when booking a house for a family trip. Many times, we as customers walk away from a rental at the end of a trip feeling like the accommodations could have been better. Everything lived up to the internet representation of the property. The beach was wonderful and the view from the deck was beautiful. We would rent the home, again.

Fabulous stay along the gulf coast

Everything about our week long stay was absolutely amazing. A beautiful spacious home with our own stretch of beach in a private gated subdivision. The home had everything we needed including an array of beach chairs, sand toys, and umbrellas (which meant we didn’t have to worry about bringing any of these extras). Not only was Andrea easy to reach, very kind, and always accessible, but she made us feel so welcome in her home. We are absolutely looking forward to a trip back to this little stretch of paradise and can’t imagine staying anywhere else! Thank you again for your kindness and sharing your home with us.

Fantastic Property

Our stay was amazing! We had a family reunion with ages ranging from 4-80 years old and everyone had a wonderful time. The views were fantastic and it felt like we had our own beach the entire week. This is an ideal spot for a large family vacation or a family reunion where you want to enjoy each other's company and stay away from the crowds and traffic. Owner was great to work with and when we had a slight issue with an exterior door not opening, we alerted the owner and a handyman showed up within a couple hours to fix it. I can't recommend this property enough and the owner was so easy to work with. You definitely won't be disappointed if you stay here.

Tween Waters May 2022 beach vacation

We have been coming to Gulf Shores for 22 years. This was one of the cleanest and best stocked (dishes, linens, etc.) houses in which we have ever stayed. The views are great from the living areas and the porches well designed. The only odd bit was having to walk through two of the bedrooms to get to the downstairs living room and bunk bedroom (or going around from outside). This did not affect us much, as we were mostly a family group, and there are two bedrooms downstairs that are separate and private. The owner was very responsive, which I really appreciated. Overall, it was a 5 star home, and we'd go back again.

About the host

Hosted by Andrea Caudill

Host profile image
We were blessed to have been able to purchase this beautiful home in the Spring of 2018 and we look forward to sharing it with other families!

Why they chose this property

From the moment we saw this house, the location, the amenities of the quiet gated community, we fell in love with it. We decided that this home would be our "retire to" home in the future. As we aren't quite ready to retire, we decided that we would open this home up for others to share and enjoy the beauty, the comfort, the peacefulness that 'Tween Waters offers.

What makes this property unique

The private-gated community offers security and solitude. No busy beach here - it's a very quiet area. Take a beach stroll west, just past a few houses, and you enter the coastal region of Bon Secour Wildlife Refuge... a popular area for Loggerhead, Green and Kemp's Ridley sea turtles to nest.
