Place was fully refurnished and ready for our guests upon arrival. Bill was a great host and super responsive at all times. Super easy beach accessibility and great location. Had a great time staying here, will most definitely come back.
Our stay was great! Although we couldn’t tell that the property was a duplex, it ended up working well for our large group. Before leaving, we were a little worried about some of the rules, such as the wristbands, but it actually ended up being really helpful and made the stay feel more safe. Bill was super available if anything went wrong, and the communication was great. Property was super clean, well maintained, and the location was perfect.

Beach house
Property was very nice. The house is actually split into 2 separate sides, which wasnt very clear in the listing. Not sure that the cleaning company used really did much cleaning however overall it wasnt "dirty" just not thoroughly cleaned.

Not for Us
The property owner was always available when we had questions, which was a plus. However, it was more inconvenient to get to the beach than we hoped….with the heat and kids 4 and under it was necessary to drive to a nearby beach access parking lot. Consequently we didn’t go much. Although the property was “freshly remodeled”, it was definitely not up to our standards. We would not stay there again.

I’m sorry we didn’t meet whatever standards you had for our beach house. As you mentioned- I’m always available.
The home was remodeled post hurricane sally and we have a 4.5 star rating.
We are 1 block from the water (you can see it in the photos). If you want direct beach front you pay double what we charge and our description of our proximity to the water isn’t remotely misleading,
It should come as no shock that August is hit in Alabama and going a block anywhere in America with “kids under 4” is going to take a little longer.
I feel like your review is unfair. You brought small children to the beach in August where you literally had a photo of the proximity to the beach and complain about the heat and the walk. I wish you had a better experience but your review is patently unfair. Hopefully folks read the reviews before and after your stay and draw their own conclusions.
Don’t miss out on this one! Perfect for huge families like ours!!!
The homes were stunning, perfect space for the whole crew. We went during Christmas which is the off season but there was still plenty to do. It was located in the perfect area. Across the street from the beach, and minutes from anything you could possibly need.
During our stay we lost power along with everyone else on the island and the pipes froze. The owner happened to be up the road with his own family and brought us water (which he definitely didn’t have to do), he was super responsive anytime I had a question and more than generous with us!! I can’t begin to say enough amazing things about how accommodating he was during our stay!! WE WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK TO STAY AT HIS PROPERTIES IN THE FUTURE!!
Thanks a million Bill and family for being so patient with us when you were trying to enjoy family time as well, we truly appreciate it!!

Just OK
My family and I rented out both sides of these duplexes. We arrived around 4 and got into the duplexes, and were greeted to an extremely strange smell on one side and very dirty place on the other side. We sprayed and got the one side smelling better, but there was a lot of cleaning. Walls had scuff marks all the way up the steps, floors were dirty, mold around vent in the kitchen, dust all over the ceiling fans and lights in ceiling, not to mention trash that was under the bed in the bedroom. All the drains on one side were VERY slow draining. Had to go out and buy batteries because the remotes went dead.
If you go here, make sure you bring your own hair dryer and iron because there is none. If you have an elderly person in your party be extremely careful because there is no rail on part of the steps and it’s very difficult for them.
While the owner wasn’t rude, he was very dry and nonchalant about what the things I just wrote here. There was no apology, just thanks for the feedback. Little things like customer service and making your renters stay as easy and flawless as possible goes a long way and I didn’t experience that with the owner at all. This wasn’t a horrible experience as I said, but it was very disappointing because the place looks immaculate on Vrbo, however, it was far from that. We won’t be staying there again.

Oh Karen- I mean Tammy-
It’s odd that you didn’t mention a “strange smell” or “dirty place” until after your stay when you were sniffing for a refund.
We have professional cleaners and we address complaints 24-7 in real time.
You didn’t mention slow drains until after your stay when you were sniffing for a refund.
It’s even more amazing that not a single guest before or after you many jokes strange smells, mold, trash or slow drains.
I had the home checked after you departed and alas- maintenance found no slow drains, mold, weird smells or trash so I didn’t address your “concerns” as we both know they were a shakedown.
Let’s agreed the layout of the home- you rented it with dill knowledge the master suites were all upstairs yet somehow are upset we didn’t bring in a moving team to rearrange the layout of the home to accommodate your specific needs (which we didn’t know about until you were sniffing for a refund)
You were upset we didn’t provide a hairdryer that we don’t advertise we provide and upset that 1 of the 8 remotes (all 8 work on any TV in the house) died on your stay. We did offer to send maintenance to replace them.
We do apologize for the harsh conditions you were forced to endure during your trip to our beautiful home and to our beaches. It must have felt like you were crossing the Northern Territory with only a hatchet and box blade to endure not having a hair dryer and one of you 8 remotes had its batteries die. Sorry for the inconvenience Karen.
I’d encourage people to read our reviews before and after your stay. I’d there’s a “real” problem we address it quickly and professionally but we don’t succumb to people creating fake problems to get refunds out of fear of a bad review.
Have a blessed day and try florida.next year - you’re not welcome back.
This property was great for our volleyball team! Very clean and met all of our needs. We didn’t have to contact Bill much but he was very quick to respond when we did.
I took my entire staff and their families to this rental for a business trip. Overall everything was very nice and as expected. The beach was about a two minute drive (or 5 min walk) and has public parking. The kids loved the pool! We would rent again.
The property looks recently remodeled, was very clean, and has a great location. We did have a few issues, but the host was very open and responsive to get things fixed as soon as possible. I do think there are some things still in process at this property, but it is an absolute solid choice for a Gulf Shores vacation!
Great spot for the 14 of us to spread out, with just a short walk to the beach and a great pool. Bill was an accommodating host and we'd definitely all stay at his place again.
Perfect weather and wonderful communication with owner
Upon arriving at the beach house we found our house had not been clean. I contacted the owner of the property and he was able to get the cleaners to our place right away and get that resolved. So I did give the place a 4 star for cleanliness after the cleaning crew came. The biggest thing I can say about this property is it just a few minutes walk to the beach which is wonderful. The pool was clean and great. The most important factor for me is communication with the owner! I would give him more than 5 stars if I could and he bought supper since our room wasn’t clean when we arrived. He did go out of his way to make things great during our stay. The only suggestion I would have to make is that the kitchen needs to be more set up for cooking as far as utensils and dishes. But overall it was a great stay and we truly enjoyed our visit!
