Place and stay was just what we needed. Entire home, close to beach and nearby shops and restaurants. Private beach cart was awesome to get things to and from the beach.

Great property for our friends beach trip with kids. Living area was bigger than we expected and the downstairs area was great for hanging out after the beach. Beach access was super close and easy to get to with kids and our group. The second fridge in the downstairs was nice too. Being limited to 3 cars in the driveway with a group of 10 was inconvenient since we had people coming from all over in different places in more than 3 cars.

We had a family of 7 (3 Adults, 3 teens, and one 4 year old) stay here and there was plenty of room for all of us. The house needed a little TLC but that did not affect us at all and had no impact on our stay. A/C worked great and so did all the appliances. Everything listed was exactly as described. We loved being within very close walking distance to the beach, the beach store, coffee, and places to eat. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. The communication with the host was great as well! I have zero complaints and would like to thank our host for helping us make our stay in Gulf Shores such a wonderful and memorable one.

Replace the grill. I couldn’t not enjoy spending time at the beach with my family because the bottom of the grill was rusted out and it took 6-7 hours to grill the food I spent lots of money on for the holiday.

June 2024 Hook, Wine and Sinker review

Very nice place to stay. Convenient location. Property does need some updates. Front deck has very loose boards. A few fell on our car while we were parked underneath it. Washer makes a lot of noise when washing anything. Back deck could use some new boards as well. Other than that it's a great place to stay

Would stay here again!

This place was perfect for our spring break trip. The beds were comfy, check in and check out was so easy. Loved that we didn’t have to make it to an office to get keys, makes for a less stressful travel day. Only cons would be the plumbing and security. It’s an older house with dated bathrooms which can be an adjustment but not a major inconvenience. Only one of the exterior doors has a deadbolt. We were safe but definitely this caused some worry at the beginning of our trip. We had everything we needed for a great week at the beach. The speakers and location were by far the best unexpected perks of this property.

Love the location! 2nd time to stay there!

I would have given it five stars, but compared to the last time we stayed there, it wasn't as good as it was the last time. Overall the house is great! The bottom step on the stairs, looks to be rotten on the edge, and the hall bathroom went in an out when you were trying to use the shower. There were some little tiny ants on the counter behind the utensils. Someone called and they sprayed the first day outside, but we just wiped the ants away when we saw them. I like to keep things clean but no broom. I bought one at the dollar store & left for others to use in the closet. We do love the location & would stay again. 😍⛳️🏝️☀️

🌊 Getaway

Would happily stay here again. Even cuter than the pictures! Comfy beds, great location. The only reason I gave 3 stars on cleanliness was there was a good bit of sand on the DR table and in the master bedroom when we arrived. We actually extended our stay by 3 days!

Family Fun

This house had everything you would need. I truly felt at home. The space in the house was great. The driveway is a plus as we have serval family at different house meet at our rental to park and walk 1 block to the beach. The kids loved the downstairs hang out spot. My family will most definitely rent the house again.

First Time at Gulf Shores

It was our first time at Gulf Shores, everything at the property was as pictured, excellent location, clean. But we only had 8 towels should have had 10 which is the full occupancy, which we had. And only had 2 washrags, and 1 small kitchen towel. We had a broom, but no dustpan. No basic cleaning supplies at all. So you'll need to buy everything from soap, windex, to salt and pepper, etc. Overall happy with our stay mostly minor inconveniences, nice property. We just prefer the beaches East of Pensacola, Navarre, Destin, Miramar etc. The water is a lot clearer, at least during our stay. And more shopping and dining options, in the Destin Area.

Honest Review

First, the location is amazing. You would be hard pressed to find a better spot. Also the layout of the place is nice and roomy, the pics don’t do it justice. However, there are very few accommodating features of the property. You get one trash bag, one packet of dish soap, one roll of toilet paper, etc. So, if you are there for more than one day, you’ll need to buy a ton of supplies. Also, the bed in one of the rooms is awful. Worst bed I’ve slept on in a long time. Lastly, there is zero flexibility with this place. My airline changed my flight and I immediately reached out to this property owner to see if I could get an early check in. Nope. Then I asked to cancel, since I was 29 days away, they were going to charge me 50% of my booking. Then, as luck would have it, my flight home was also delayed so I asked for a late check out and they flat our refused.

Thank you for taking the time to post a review regarding your recent stay at our property. We are sorry that we could not accommodate your requests for an early check in and/or a late check out. During the busy time of the year, this property experiences back-to-back rentals. In order to have time to clean and prepare the property for the next guest, we have to give our cleaners sufficient time to access the property. I know will understand this. I hope that you will consider staying with us again so that we can have another chance to provide you with a superior experience.
