The property was perfect for our family. Our only feedback is that the kitchen knives need replaced. We couldn’t peel a cucumber or cut a lime. Otherwise it was great.

Nice Getaway

The house was the perfect size for my family and I. It was within walking distance of the beach which was nice. We also had enough cookware and dishware for daily meals. The floors were slightly dirty, but everything else was clean and to our liking.

Beautiful, Spotless, and Super Beach Convenient

This is a super nice and clean cottage. There is a pool one unit over from this one and the beach is a quick walk directly across the street with dedicated beach access. Super convenient to the beach and the shops and dining places nearby. Best part of all is that it’s pet friendly!!

Nice Time at Gulf Shores

Property was well maintained and clean. For pets, not a lot of green space but it worked out ok. A short walk across the street to the beach which was very nice. We enjoyed our time. Traffic tended to be an issue late morning and then again in the afternoon so plan accordingly.

Very nice

The house was very nice. It was clean. It was very close to the beach; as well as shopping and other fun activities. I do believe that some of the "additional fees" were a bit pricy compared to other places, but overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Spring Break

Everything about our stay was great. We will definitely be back and recommend to others. One thing to note is that the traffic was really loud at all hours of the night due to spring break. It didn’t keep us awake because we were all exhausted from our daily activities, but it would have been really hard for families with small children or light sleepers.
