We had a total of 34 staying the week. The house was perfect for our size, plenty of different rooms for everyone to have an activity going at the same time. The kitchen area was perfect to have many preparing food for our large crowd.We had good weather for the first part of the week then gale force winds towards the end. No one was able to go into the water for the last three days.We were thrilled to all be together and made some glorious memories that will last a lifetime. Age range was 80 to almost 2.Everyone wants to come back in 2028!

Don't wait for a review, we send you a message early in your stay asking if there are any issues and encouraging you to let us know what needs help. Oven was repaired as soon as it was reported! Pool is heated to normal resort temp of 83-85 degrees.

beautiful home on the beach

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was one of the best vacation our family had. This home was the highlight of the vacation as this had everything that all age group wanted. It was clean and spacious and more room than we all needed but with the current Covid situation gave us all our own space that we could safely enjoy. The only negative is the property was far from the food so to pick up food daily was an event and we spend a few hours daily getting food for everyone.

Perfect house for a small wedding

We came across this house a little under a year ago. Figured it was a great fit for what type of wedding we wanted to have. Small and simple on the beach. Unfortunately with the Covid 19 thing going on it caused all the beaches to be shut down. Thankfully this place has an awesome large space under the house that we were able to use to have the ceremony followed by the reception. Everything was perfect. It's a ways away from everything except a few neighbors which were of no bother. Had a few maintenance issues that were resolved in a timely fashion. The only minor flaw was the grill was way gross and had no tools to clean it. Besides that I would highly reccomend the place. Very spacious and good for large groups.

Thanks for the review! We are so glad you were able to have your wedding with a beach view:-) You did a great job taking things in stride and moving forward--that bodes well for your happy future! We'll check out the grill. It may be that we just can't keep a gas grill there. We've replaced the tools multiple times and somehow no one wants to clean it after they've used it.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was fantastic! We had all 11 rooms filled and had enough space for all and room for all the chefs!! The rooms were comfy and clean and the kitchens has everything we needed. We had a small wedding on the beautiful beach and a reception under the house...I could not have asked for a more perfect venue. Also, the owners were great at recommending local businesses and anything else we needed. We hope to be back for an anniversary!!

Wonderful vacation rental for a large group

This house is huge with three levels of living space and 10 bedrooms, 10 bathrooms. We have 23 people (12 adults and 11 kids) and it does not feel crowded at all. There are 4 sitting areas and kids den on top floor that kids stay there most of the time when they are in door. The heated pool and hot tub are very nice during the winter season. The beach is wonderful. A few minor issues that we noticed during our stay: 1) I wish the washer/dryer can be updated as it does take a long time to dry clothes. 2) Needs big pots or cookware for large parties.

This house needs a lot of TLC

The bedrooms had carpet that apparently had been wet from the storm and smelled. One of our family has Asthma and had to go to Urgent care twice for breathing treatments due to the air quality in those rooms. A dehumidifier was delivered to us but we were unable to use much because the air conditioning unit on the floor with seven bedrooms was not working for three days. Many spindles on the railing are rotted and in need of repair as well as the gate on the boardwalk. The oven door in the catering kitchen kept falling off when we opened. It is such a shame because it is a nice house in a beautiful location so very surprised it is not kept up.

The house is truly so beautiful that it’s hard to take everything in. I recommend this amazing house to anyone and Gulf Shores Vacation Rentals have been easy to contact and work with!

Need more large pots and chairs on porches

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very nice for large groups lots of room. Two small changes the owners need to make. Each is a negative 1/2 star. 1. Not enough LARGE pots to cook for 36 people.We made out because a few in our family brought their large pots. I know the guest will not take care of the pots and pans, but the owner should plan to replace the pots and pans ever few years. Also you should add some steel serving/cooking spoons. The plastic ones are too flimsy to cook and serve with. Except for the pots and pans the plates and flatware was outstanding. 2. I know the porches are not to wide, but some "Cracker Barrel" or simple plastic chairs would be nice so one can sit on the porch and watch the ocean. There are seating at each corner of the porches.

What an Experience!

Huge home with tons of room for people to relax, entertain or just watch the ocean. Will definitely recommend. Only thing that could improve is the parking. Not enough room for how many guest can fit into the home and come and go as they please.
