We really enjoyed our week at Sea Bell! It was a great location. During our stay in mid-May, the beach was never crowded. The house was very clean and nicely stocked with many starting supplies, several that I often have to buy upon reaching our location, and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals some of the time. Always appreciate a Keurig being available, as was here.
Such a great space for our family with access right to the beach. Lovely homeowner and great space! We hope to make this an annual event with our family.
Great house with a wonderful view and easy access to the beach. Had everything we needed. Loved the coffee station, ice machine, and wine fridge. Kate was very communicative and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.
While very clean and perfect walk to the beach, the beds were so uncomfortable we actually left a day early.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.

However, we are sincerely sorry to read that you found the beds uncomfortable. This is the first time anyone has reported this problem. As you can see, we have 125 Ten (10) Star reviews. This is absolutely not the relaxing experience we want for any of our guests. We take your feedback seriously, as a great night's sleep is one of the most important parts of a vacation.

We value your patronage and hope you will give us another opportunity to provide you with a truly exceptional experience the next time you visit Gulf Shores.
Sincerely,
Mark & Kate
Everything was great except the living room television. A third of the screen was black and you couldn’t see anything on that part. The dishwasher wasn’t working properly either. I called the maintenance number left a message but never heard back.

I am happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. I apologize, but we were unaware of the television issue until the cleaning crew discovered it. The television was replaced immediately. The dishwasher was working properly when we checked it. It could have been set on delay. I hope these issues didn't keep you from enjoying your time at the beach.
Our stay was excellent and you couldn’t get any closer to the beach! Having the pool for the kids was a wonderful addition especially on those days we didn’t want them in the ocean due to red flag days. We would definitely stay at this property again!
This house had everything we were looking for; on the beach, pet friendly, plenty of room, and a pool. The owners are local and when we had some minor issues, they were addressed immediately. We will book again.
The sea bell was perfect for our group of 6 visiting gulf shores for the first time! The home was well appointed, clean and so comfortable. The pool was clean and the perfect temperature and the ocean was just steps out the back door. Really appreciated the prompt communication with the owner too! Had a great time!
The House was great, very modern and up to date. The only minor issues, were the downstairs toliet was very unstable, the deck light would not work, the car port lights were out, the shower overhead did not work properly..sprayed very little and no pressure.Overall our stay was very pleasant and would love to come again!
