This was our second time booking with this property management company, and once again we had a wonderful experience. The house was clean, comfortable, and the perfect size for my husband, our dog, and me. We loved being so close to the beach and enjoyed the beautiful ocean view. The property management team was friendly, responsive, and easy to work with throughout our stay. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend both the property and the management team.

Super clean home and the communication with management and the owners was great regarding check in and general questions. Very peaceful where this property is located. If you want to dial it down and relax for a great value in price. This is your stay!

Positives, it was a walkable distance to the beach. The inside of the property was clean and a great size for our family. Kitchen was well stocked with appliances and dishes. Great location for avoiding large crowds of gulf shores. Negatives: outdoor patio and deck areas. Patio funiture was rotted and falling apart. The swing broke on day 4 with my granddaughter just sitting on it. There was a strong propane odor that took over the patio. Gas company was called but it was a windy day. So he had difficulty locating a leak. He did say much of the set up was rusted and needed to be replaced. The images on the booking are much older than the property looked. Also, there is a protected beach rat species that really loved the patio at this property.

Easy to find. Short walk to beach. Beach not to crowded. Good local food. Plenty of room for our family of 8. Only problem was that we have 3 teens that are 5'10- 6'2 and the bunk beds were a little short for them. We had such a great time though. Will be back.

This was the second time we brought our family to say at Smiles N Waves and are already looking forward to our next visit! We had everything we needed for our week long stay and the walk to the beach is only a few minutes away! The view looking off the deck is beautiful. I don’t think we could have picked any more of a perfect place to call our family vacation spot!

We had a blast. The check in was super smooth. The location is not crowded making plenty of room on the beach. The location was 100 yards from the beach. The check out was very easy. The staff also came in and checked with us at one point and was super helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend for any medium to small sized families looking for a quick get-away

It was a nice little get away. A few structural things needed repair but this didn’t impede our time. The only things that we felt could have been better is that the master tub water drained and we were not able to use it and the TV buffered and kicked us off every time we tried to watch anything in the evening. However, the quality and price was great and we enjoyed our time over Mothers Day Weekend.
