Quiet pet friendly getaway

We were very happy with the location of the property. It was a quiet area, but close to the beach and places to eat and shop. The house was great, with the exception being the operation of the tv in the living room. There were 4 remotes and still not quite sure which one you were supposed to use.

Simple comfortable and convenient

The house is cute and bedrooms were clean. Plenty of room to spread out. Kitchen was great. The yard was a nice feature for us, since we were traveling with dogs. Pool was nice. And the location was quiet and close to the beach. Main complaints were dirty floors, stains on the couch and poor TV reception for the direct TV. Overall a pleasant stay.

Gulf shores

House & pool were very clean but the backyard wasn’t mowed and outdoor chairs in back was broken.Master bed was broke down on one side so we put couch pillows under mattress to make it even. WiFi only worked one out of 6 days. That being said we did enjoy our stay

Great location! Close to everything.

The location is perfect and close to everything. The communication with the property managers was excellent. Any question we had was addressed promptly. The listing is a bit misleading with the lower bedroom, but we did not need the space so it was fine. There are a few things that would really make this rental, an excellent stay. An upgrade to the mattresses would be great. And the chairs by the pool are cheap and cracked, so the some lounge chairs would be great to make a for a better experience at the pool. The house is decorated cute. And there is plenty of space for two people. It being dog friendly was the reason we booked this.

Updates

I really like the house. It’s our 2nd time staying there. However, it could use some TLC outside. Please invest in new outside pool chairs. They are old and busted and only 3 chairs. No internet all week but we made that work.

Great location and pool is nice.

The house was nice and the pool was great. The location is amazing. Only complaints I have is there isn’t a table by the pool like the pictures showed, the downstairs is detached so you have to go outside to get there and the house was constantly hot.

Would definitely go back

The property was great for the price. Overall the stay was great, it’s a super quick walk to the beach, the pool was clean and great. The house was nicely renovated upstairs and the downstairs was perfect for people okay with being a little tight. Would definitely stay here again. There were some issues like the downstairs closet being completely full so it was unusable and there being a few lights out in the home and downstairs but those were very minor things.

Good place for large family and pets

It has comfortable beds and hot showers. We received prompt attention from property manager when contacting them about issues with keyless entry and WiFi. Bunkhouse worked out fine for the teens, providing their own space. 2 blocks from public beach access was great. Pleased with this choice and was within our budget. Would stay again!

Great Location, Beautiful Property.

House was clean, pool was great, nice quiet street with a short walk to the beach, close to all attractions, and dining. The only thing that we were bothered by was the air settings, it was hot in the house, they have the air set at a certain temp, and you can turn it down, but it will go back to the original setting shortly, we ended up buying fans. I would stay here again though, we had a great time.
