The Reel house is real fantastic!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time during our stay! Very easy to find, close enough to all of gulf shore’s amenities but far enough away to provide peace and quiet. House was very clean and it faces west so beautiful sunsets every night. Beach is an easy walk and was never too busy. Wildlife was great as well, saw dolphins multiple times!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay at the Reel House was great. The house is in a pretty good location to where you can walk to the beach or drive to some public access points. The provided kayaks were also nice. With them you could launch out and kayak over to St. Andrew’s Bay to fish or explore.

Construction noise was unexpected.

The house was great and the process was easy but we had no idea that construction was occurring right next door. Starting bright and early every day there was construction noise all day long. It made time on the porch not enjoyable. It was not a relaxing get-away as we had hoped. I just wish it had been disclosed so I could have made an informed decision.

Overshadowed by construction

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pros: The house itself is very well kept. It’s one of the older ones in the area judging from the size and style, so for it to be in such good shape means a lot has been put into taking care of it. It was a bit of a tight squeeze for two adults and two teens, but true to the description provided. The kitchen had what we needed (except a wine key or bottle opener!). The yard was well kept, which was good for our pups.... But the yard is full of burs that hurt their feet and got stuck in their fur (typical for the area though). The dock and the kayaks were the best parts. Saw a lot of mullet jumping amongst the oyster nursery. From the dock we caught a lot of small catfish (a ton of hardheads, one teeny gafftop), croaker, pinfish, and a few spots. Nothing big. And definitely recommend taking the kayaks over the Bon Secour!Gulf beach access is a quarter mile (hot in August!) walk. We were fortunate with some very calm surf and clear water. Lots of fish to swim amongst. Cons: The vacation was nearly ruined by the construction of two very large houses going in on the lot to the north. They are squeezed in right next to this house. Feet away. Hearing hammering and sawing all day was absolutely awful. Couldn’t relax. Couldn’t nap. What made it worse was the classic rock radio the workers had blaring the whole time. Couldn’t enjoy sitting on the deck overlooking the water starting from 7 in the morning. That greatly knocks my rating. It was not a peaceful vacation. This house should not be rented until the construction is done. And there will be neighbors in very close contact after that.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love this vacation spot. It’s a few minute walk to the beach, but my family loves staying on the bay for the fishing and kayaking. We love that it’s pet friendly. The house is well equipped and the right size for us.

Not so peaceful retreat!

Pictures show a relaxing little cottage but little did we know they were building 2 houses right next door. Workers were there from early morning to late night, hammering, drilling and making a lot of noise. The peaceful retreat was far from it! The house being built next door is approximately 10-15 feet away, so very close. The cleanliness of the house was questionable also. Seems there were several spills and stains throughout the house. Kitchen counters had a spill of white goo??? No I would not recommend this house unless you had very low expectations!

Gem on the Bay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Reel House was a gem! I’ve stayed various places on the gulf and this is top of the list. So clean, so nicely furnished, an ideal property on the water. The neighborhood was very quiet and the beach only two blocks away. However, we liked staying at the property with the small beach in front of the house. The dogs loved swimming, we relaxed by the water and enjoyed the view. Sunset Properties thought of everything for water recreation including kayaks, paddle boards, boogie boards, fishing poles and traps. You can’t go wrong with this cottage!!

We enjoyed being away from the hustle and bustle of Gulf Shores and the traffic and congestion. It was just what we were looking for.

BEAUTIFUL....SUNSET PROPERTIES WAS AWESOME!!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I am very satisfied with my stay. It is a pet friendly property and I am very thankful!!! I think in the future....the grass and sand burs need to be address because with pets and even people that is an issue. Also, the TV was awesome but football season is upon us and there needs to be a notation that the service is APP BASED so you can be prepared to have passwords and info on hand. Otherwise a beautiful property and location to TACKY JACKS and beach is very close. Sunset properties are great to deal with and very accommodating....will definitely use them again for my next getaway!!!!
