Gina was amazing. She was available to answer every question. As a first time beach goer it was so nice not to have to pack a car full of toys, towels, beach chairs, etc. She had everything you might need. It was steps away from the beach. We never even wore shoes when we walked out. The use of space was fantastic. There were 4 of us. 2 adults and 2 teenagers. The extra bunk room was perfect for them and their much needed privacy. This property will be #1 on our list next year!!! Thanks so much!

Excellent family friendly rental!

Our family loved our stay here in Gulf Shores. The location of the complex on the beach was ideal and the kids loved the pool on the property. Rental came with beach chairs, sun canopy, and kids toys which was great! Location was walkable to different dinner locations and shops. The townhome was beautifully remodeled and had everything we needed for the week! We would definitely stay here again!

This condo was perfect for our family. The location is ideal for those who desire easy beach access. Beach chairs along with beach toys are available to use. Cleaning up from the sandy beach is a breeze with a hose located in the garage space before returning to the condo. The kitchen is fully equipped for those who like to stay in and cook from time to time. All accommodations were wonderful!

Awesome place in the heart of Gulf Shores

We love this place (it’s our second stay)! Gina is an awesome host and the condo is perfect for families. It’s so convenient to the beach and the pool is right behind the unit also. Another thing we love - the owners have thoughtfully provided everything you need for a great day at the beech (chairs, floats, kids toys etc.) We will definitely be back!

Amazing Fall Break for our 2nd stay

We loved our second stay at the townhouse just as much as our first stay. The added bunk room is amazing. You can’t beat the amenities and cleanliness of the townhouse along with the perfect location that’s close to everything. Thanks for a great fall break!
