Quaint and friendly

Lovely spot to chill without the fussy crowds of the high risers. Nice beach access. Close enough to the tourist spots but far enough away as well.

Wonderful Stay!

Wonderful location. Easy access to beach. Love all the extra beach supplies. Only complain, was the upstairs neighbors assuming children running back and forth all through out our stay. We appreciate the living accommodation and plan to return.

Great Vaca!

The condo was clean and comfortably decorated! Close to the beach and having a pool is a plus! Next time we will book on the top floor…kids above us running around throughout the night was annoying.

Beach access

The property opens to the beach, the private heated outdoor pool was a pool plus, especially in the evenings when the pool is shaded. The unit we stayed in had comfortable beds, fully stocked kitchen and the ice maker in by the freezer section was a plus. We totally enjoyed our stay.

Perfect spot

It was wonderful! Great space & very clean! Comfy beds & great kitchen/bedrooms! Host was available & responded quickly when asked questions. I would definitely stay here again! The beach was not too crowded. Beach service fills up quickly as they only have a limited number of chairs/umbrellas so I do recommend attempting to reserve ahead of time if that’s a must for you.

Beach Fun!

The condo was perfect for our family! I could smell the cleaner when the door opened. Everything was clean and ready to go! We had everything we needed for a wonderful stay. The beds were very comfortable. The outdoor area seemed like a tropical resort. We loved the palm trees by the pool . The grilling area was a plus. All we had to do was walk a few steps and we were on the beach. This was a perfect vacation stay!!

text instead of email

The stay was very enjoyable. I would suggest that you text the check out notice instead of emailing. We left at 5:00 am and housekeeping could have been in there early. I did not check my email the entire time I was there, therefor I did not see how to inform you of my departure until the next day. I like many do not check email while on vacation because it includes work emails and no one wants that while on vacation :)

The Beach 2022

Everything was great except for the size of the unit was smaller than we anticipated. The bedrooms and bathrooms were sufficient in size for 3 adults and two children but the common area (kitchen and living room) was was pretty tight, especially on a rainy day. A little less clutter and an additional chair or two would have been helpful.

Great place to stay!

We had a great stay at Sandpiper. Our WiFi password wasn’t working at first but a quick call got that resolved. The place was clean and very nicely decorated. The location is on the beach. No boardwalk so directly on the beach. We had plenty of towels and extra pillows, blankets etc in the main bedroom closet. It was spring break so the condo was full and lots of kids running around. We could hear the people above us daily but once you close the door, you couldn’t hear the people outside. So nice! I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. Thank you!

Lovely

This was our fourth time to the Gulf Shores area and this was the best place we’ve stayed. From the heated pool, to the hop out to the beach and the cozy accommodations. When we return we will look to stay here again.

Honeymoon vacation

When I was searching online for places to stay in Gulf Shores, I saw “Beach Blessings” and knew that was where we were to stay. We were more than pleased with the condo, it’s location and proximity to the beach. The main bedroom also had an amazing mattress and got such wonderful sleep!

Angela at Beach Life Vacation was very easy to work with. I would recommend anyone to contact her for a stay in Golf Shores.

Angela at Beach Life Vacations helped us get a condo on short notice, We would gladly recommend her services to anyone wanting to visit this area. The condo was clean, well furnished and affordable.

AMAZING

We decided to take a trip to Gulf Shores the day after Christmas to relax after the holiday hustle. BEST DECISION EVER. Upon arrival we noticed that the condo was immaculate. The condo is recently updated and beautifully decorated. The location of the condo is absolutely perfect. You are literally steps from the ocean. Did I mention you can drink your morning cup of coffee on the front balcony and watch the waves roll in? My husband and I have a 9 month old and had ZERO issues walking to and from the beach. We were just right down from “The Hangout” and several restaurants and souvenir shops. We have stayed in many condos but I mean this when I say NONE are as fantastic as Beach Blessings. We did NOT want to leave. We have already booked our next trip. Book Beach Blessings, you will thank me later.
