Everything was just as described. We were very comfortable and the location cannot be beat. Easy walk to the beach and restaurants. Can't wait to go back.
Absolutely amazing location for beach access!Great carport. Outside shower for sand rinsing. Hammock and furniture under cover. Outdoor shared fire pit.
Just a block off of the main drag. 3-5 minute walk to the beach. Close to several restaurants from Seafood to Italian. This place was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. It even came with a beach cart with chairs and sand toys. We would definitely recommend this place for a visit.
Loved the close walk to the beach. Home is within walking distance to several restaurants. Our dog lived hanging out on the balcony with us so she could watch everything!
The host was great and helpful. The place didn’t look like the photos though, It’s a lot older. We had trouble regulating The showers in both bathrooms. One of them couldn’t be regulated. There was no beach or ocean view.

Response from VrboOwner on 5 June 2026
Thank you for your feedback and for your kind words about our hospitality. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.
We do want to clarify that since the photos were taken, we have purchased and placed new couches in the living room and completed a major update to the entire upstairs flooring, including installing brand-new carpet on the stairs and hallway along with LVP in the bedrooms. We apologize if the appearance differed from what you expected based on the listing photos.
We’re also sorry to hear you experienced difficulty regulating the showers. Had we been made aware of the issue during your stay, we would have been happy to assist and troubleshoot it right away to ensure everything was working properly for you.
Regarding the view, our listing does not advertise a direct beach or ocean view, but we understand how important that can be when choosing a vacation property.
Thank you again for staying with us and for your feedback, which helps us continue improving the guest experience.
Host extremely responsive. Home very clean. Great location within walking distance to the beach. Kitchen had most items someone would need to make a meal. Definitely appreciated the blender. Outdoor balconies were great for relaxing and enjoying the weather. Would stay again!
This was a great place to stay for our beach weekend! There was plenty of room for myself, 3 teenage kids and my parents. Plus it was nice to be able to bring the dogs with us. The kitchen was stocked with very nice appliances and dishes. The multiple balconies were very relaxing. It is a duplex and there was another family next to us, but they were very nice and we only significantly heard them when they were packing up to go. The owners were very responsive throughout the entire process. The walk to the beach was minimal and we were able to walk back very easily for anything we forgot. If I am ever back in gulf shores, I will definitely consider staying here again.
Great location, easy walk to the beach, local restaurants, bars, coffee shops. Many balconies to choose from if you like the sun or the shade depending on the time of day. Nice walkable area a block off the main road for walking your dog. Would stay here again!
We had so much fun! House was clean and offered a nice location… beach and concert at the wharf plus a clean and comfy stay- could not ask for a better quick vacay on way to Disney!
We had a great time at this property. We had everything we needed. The location is fantastic. The owners were super responsive, friendly and great to work with.
We had an amazing time, the place was clean and well maintained. We would stay there again in a heartbeat.
The communication was great and the location was wonderful.
We came to town for my son’s soccer tournament and this place was perfect in every way! Super clean, great location! Quiet, Safe and plenty of space for all of us. Amazing communication from the hosts. If you’re looking for a great place to stay, this is it!

Why they chose this property
On a quiet street only 1 block to the beach and walkable to so many other places in Gulf Shores, what's not to love? The Hangout is .7miles away, and an easy walk. The Wharf Amphitheater and Flora-Bama are both only a 20 minute drive away.
What makes this property unique
3 balconies await you for relaxation, and the beach is only 1 block away (1 minute walk). We provide our guests with a beach wagon, 4 beach chairs, and sand toys. Feel like exploring, walk to The Hangout for some good food and GREAT music. Lauria's by the Beach is also outstanding, and right around the corner. Thirsty? Head to the famous Pink Pony! It's all right there!
