Spring Break 2024

The house was beautiful and it had three restrooms with showers which is great! The kitchen had two refrigerators which came in handy and it was fully stocked to cook our family meals. No need to take anything, we had everything we needed. The french doors opening towards the ocean in the living room and master bedroom were the best features of the house. Thoroughly enjoyed watching the view and listening to the ocean sounds. We enjoyed seeing the dolphins in the morning while eating our breakfast. I wish there was a better grill and table with chairs in the patio to fully enjoy the deck. This would have been an added bonus. The deck area is wonderful but we didn't enjoy is as much. Having our own beach area was also wonderful and it was such a treat walking out to the beach anytime of day with easy access back into the house. The house had a shower to wash off the sand before heading back into the house. The property manager was very responsive and made our visit seamless. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and highly recommend.

GREAT TIME

Really enjoyed the quiet setting this place had to offer. The beach was not overflowing with multiple people and there was not the bustle of the big city. People were friendly and Fort Morgan was great. The home was wonderful and well stocked, communication with the owners were great. Thank you for a wonderful time

Wedding—⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had a very small intimate wedding at this location and it could not have been more perfect!! The view, as well as the interior were absolutely beautiful. I think the pictures don’t do the house enough justice because it is gorgeous! Host was very friendly and informative. Would definitely recommend this house!

Peaceful area

Pros: GREAT location GREAT Floorplan Very PRIVATE Few steps to the beach Home and private beach area great for pictures. Two refrigerators Cabinet ice maker PLENTY of dishes and silverware All in all, a WONDERFUL PLACE. Cons: Poor lighting in parking area under the home. Numerous liquid circle stains on sectional couch cover. Sand on bottom/fitted sheets either from prior visitors that wasn't changed before our arrival or for some other reason when replaced before our arrival. Noticeable dust throughout the home on wall picture frames and ceiling fans. Washer has a strong odor. Just wanted the owners to know the cons in case they don't frequently visit to check on their property. I would want to know. We enjoyed the property and made wonderful memories despite any cons.

Why they chose this property

Discover the allure of Gulf Shores and Fort Morgan through our eyes. As New Orleans natives, this coastal haven offers us a quick escape from the bustling city to a peaceful retreat.

Whether it's sipping morning coffee on the back deck, watching pelicans and dolphins dance, or unwinding with a glass of wine during a breathtaking sunset, each moment in this tranquil setting is pure magic. We invite you to experience the serenity and beauty that captivates us every time we return to our Gulf Shores getaway.

What makes this property unique
