Just Perfect

This is our 2nd year staying in this house and we couldn't be happier. The accomodations are excellent and the house is always up to date with any changes. The house is clean, neat and has everything you might need from the kitchen to the beach. My family loves this place. We look forward to coming back and staying here. The owners are outstanding and easy to work with. You will not be disappointed in this place. Best place in Gulf Shores!

Loved this place!

Can’t say enough good things about it! Our family rented both sides of the Duplex. Comfortable furniture inside, on deck & under the house. It has great beach access right out the back door…perfect for the 3 generations that enjoyed the stay! Loved that the kids could easily access dry sandy play area under the house, even during short rain storms. Location on beach is wonderful, not crowded at all. Equipped with everything we needed & more. We will be back ! Tina was a pleasure to work with

Owner was super thoughtful in the home, making it very private / feel secluded from the neighbors in duplex. Enjoyed the ocean everyday, and used her thoughtful email with activities and restaurants as a guide since new to this location. Would def stay again! Was able to comfortably fit 8 adults.

Perfect location for a relaxing vacation with friends and family

Location is definitely the highlight of this rental! Traveling with 3 kids under the age of 10 meant lots of beach time and the adults appreciated that we didn’t need to be at the beach the entire time the kids wanted to be there. We loved seeing dolphins surfacing (and even sometimes jumping) each day of our stay. The beach was calm and I crowded for our December stay. And our host was very helpful with the one (completely unavoidable) issue we encountered.

Great stay in Gulf Shores

We were really happy with this Duplex in Gulf Shores. It was very nicely furnished but casual enough that you felt at home. Communications with the owner that were provided without having to ask were great, we had all the information in front of us BEFORE we got to the beach. Beds were comfortable, the kitchen was more than adequately stocked with dishes, pots and pans and utensils. One of the things we enjoyed the most was the sitting area under the structure. We were out of the sun and a soft breeze was usually blowing that made it a great spot for the kids to keep playing while the adults relaxed. Convenient and easy to get to, ten minutes to Walmart and many other places of interest. Would gladly stay there again!

Great stay!!!

We had a wonderful stay and loved the house. The location is great, you seriously couldn't ask for a better place! The owner was very responsive and fixed our one issue as soon as possible. The house was very clean and had plenty of space for 2 families and children. The outdoor shower was nice to get the sand off before coming in. The beach is only a few steps away and we had plenty of space on the beach every day. We'll definitely come back to stay here!
