The house and kitchen layout is great for a large group. Everyone loved it. The pool is nice to have for entertaining kids but the real star is the beach which is right out the back door. My only issue is that the gas grill pictured on the deck was unfunctional. The working grill is down in the parking area with no view of the beach.

Family Vacation

Our family of 23 had a great time at this house. It had tons of room for everybody. Enough room for everybody to sit down to eat at the same time was a plus. The beds were comfortable. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect home.

Family stay/wedding

The Pearl could not have been a better fit for our family and daughter’s wedding. The size was perfect and had plenty of space. The kitchen had everything we needed and beach was beautiful (complete with pods of dolphins). The property manager was very easy to contact and prompt in replies. Highly recommend the Pearl, a true gem!

So glad you enjoyed the house!! We have high cleaning standards and will remind the cleaning crew and inspectors to pay extra attention to the shower grout each wk. All the bedding on the 21 beds was clean and sanitized prior to arrival. All bedding each wk is removed from property and laundered off-site at a commercial laundry, and fresh bedding is brought in. In the event a small blemish is still on a sheet, please call us and we can bring a replacement set. To all future guests, in the event anything needs attention at arrival, please simply call us and we will address it asap! We sub-contract all cleaning out to commercial cleaning companies, who are trained and do a great job, but are also human. Thanks! Greg w/ ALVacationRentals.com

The Pearl is a Gem!

Lives up to all expectations. No disappointments. Well appointed, beautifully designed, and functional for a large group. Everyone was comfortable and had their own suites. The Pearl can adapt to business or vacation configurations. We had a wonderful time.

Beautiful/Huge Beach House

Myself along with my brothers, sisters and our spouses really enjoyed staying here. The house is so beautiful and huge. Plenty of room to escape if you needed some quiet time. Massive kitchen with 3 refrigerators, 3 dishwashers and ice machines. The best part is 7 of the 12 bedrooms have a beach view. One bedroom went right out to the pool and the other beach view rooms all had balconies. Anything you want or need in a house for a weeks vacation this house has it. Would definitely stay here again.

We had multiple people coming in from other countries, including the United Kingdom, Canada and South Africa. They were also others from Alabama and other southern states. A wonderful time. We most enjoyed the three large tables so joint meals could be enjoyed by all.

Wonderful beach front

We had a group of 22 and it was truly the perfect location. Enough room to spread out so we didn’t get claustrophobic, but plenty of gathering space where we could all be together in one room. The heated pool and direct access to the beach made the stay extra amazing. The kitchen appliances, washing machines on 2 levels, and balcony’s for all beach front rooms were remarkable touches. We had one little issue with the grill but the friendly maintenance man was very prompt in coming to fix it. We would certainly go back again.

Do yourself a favor and book this home...UNREAL

Photos do this place no justice. It is breathtaking from the time you pull in the driveway. They have missed nothing in the details. They provided all of the essentials...towels, coffee, toilet tissue. The kitchen appliances are top of the line. The furniture and decor were well placed and very nice. The owner is very easy to contact and any issues that we had were addressed within 15 min. The property is well maintained and we will be back.

Thank you so so much for the kind review! We hope you and your family and friends can come stay with us again soon!! To all future guests, the cleaning company we use provides bath towels and one roll of toilet paper per bathroom. They do not leave any coffee, coffee filters, spices etc, these were left from a previous guest and not removed during the turnover. We just want all guests to know what to expect when packing, all this info is also included in the access info email sent to guest prior to each stay. Thank you!!

Perfect for what we needed

The very first thing that I want to mention is from the moment we booked, the communication between Greg and I was always fast and helpful! I’m not sure if he was the property owner or manager, but the communication and help from him was outstanding. We rented this property for our wedding without having the chance to visit the area or home beforehand. Every time we emailed, we received prompt responses with exactly the info and suggestions that we needed. Even in the evening hours! The home was absolutely beautiful and offered us all of the space that we were looking for. The open concept kitchen was perfect for our evening after the wedding. The island countertop is very large (much larger than the pictures made it look), and plenty of space for the caterers. We were also able to rearrange the living room and create enough space for our guitar player AND an area to dance the night away. Each floor was beautifully decorated, and the lay out was very comfortable. There is a stackable washer and dryer on the top two floors which was handy incredibly handy. The location is superb! About 10 minutes to the main road that feeds into the area. Dining, shopping were easy to get to. The area felt very residential and comfortable, which was exactly what we were looking for. We visited in October and decided last minute to heat the pool. Worth it! I should also mention that I was able to message about hearing the pool very last minute, and was easily and quickly able to have that arranged. There is also a guy that comes every 3 or 4 days to clean out the pool. The only thing that got a little tricky during our stay at the house was the driveway. It is a single driveway that can hold about 12 cars, but there is sand on either side that is recommended you do not park on. The driveway also sits up fairly high on top of the sand, so I wouldn’t recommend driving two wheels off the side of the driveway either. You can scrape the underneath of your vehicle. As long as you preplan for the driveway, it really isn’t an issue. We left everyone’s car keys in a basket by the elevator on the main floor so that if someone was blocked, we could move the cars as needed. Overall wonderful stay, would definitely consider renting again if we are back in the area.

Amazing house, great host to work with

Absolutely beautiful house in a perfect beach setting. We had 28 people and plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen and dining area are a great size and really well equipped. The only picky thing is that some of the house needed some small repairs, but the owner already has plans for the work to be done. Would definitely book again.
