We had the very best time! Everything was clean and ready to go for us! Check in was a breeze. The owner reached out several times to give us some tips for the upcoming storm and also to let us know that we were able to check in early! She is so kind and the property was perfect!

This house was perfect for our family! We loved being right on the beach, very quiet neighborhood and most of the time we were the only ones on the beach! (Went in April) The house could use some upgrades but over all it was perfect for us!

Second.time staying at Almost Heaven. We had 7 people and there was plenty of space for all of us. The location is perfect and the house has new appliances and all of the kitchen items you could need. Only recommendation would be some additional cover on the back deck...will definitely stay at Almost Heaven again in the future.

Mfantastic beach getaway

Excellent beachfront location with direct access to the beach. Home was perfect for a beach vacation, and the beach infront of the house had so few people it felt like it was private. Communication with the host was excellent. “Almost Heaven” is definitely top of the list for next summer.

Spring Break at Cabana Beach

We enjoyed our Spring Break at Cabana Beach. The beach house had plenty of space for a family of six. Fantastic view and great beach right off the deck. The weather was good but not great during the week we stayed so it was nice to have the option for Beach Club access. Very nice indoor/outdoor pools and fitness facilities. Overall, would definitely recommend the beach house.

Heaven is an Understatement!

This is the most wonderful beach home on the Alabama Gulf Coast. They had to send the sherriff out to make us leave. I offered them one of my kids to let us stay another day.

Beach Gem

This beach house was exactly what my family needs each year. With over a decade of staying in crowded Gulf Shores, this house was a perfect fit. We needed a beach front view, 4 bedrooms, and nothing too crowded on the beach. This place checked all the boxes! Quiet neighborhood and not too far to drive if wanting to get to the reqular stops for food and shopping in Gulf Shores. We would highly recommend.
