We had a great time here. The house was very clean. The location is driving distance to the hangout and had some great local restaurants within walking distance. Highly recommend.

The good: 4 BR, on the beach, semi-private pool, interior great for a big family Not listing-specific, but as Ohioans here for the 1st time, we noticed: properties in this gulf region are much more $$$ than further south in FL. Traveling w/5 kids, we opted to pay more in order to cut 3-7 hours out of the drive. Also, there's not much vegetation relative to further south. And not walkable - no sidewalks on this main drag. Feels a little desolate. The bad: -Chiefly, the pool was broken for ~3 days. After repair, the underwater light never came back on (thus robbing us of pleasant nighttime swimming ambience). Things break. That's life. But unfortunately mgmt didn't make it right via small partial refund, gift cards, etc. (something I know exemplary VRBO listings do). We paid a premium for a pool that was unusable for almost 1/2 the stay. -Outdoor shower plumbing leaks everywhere when in use & is "secured" w/duct tape. Vacuum cleaner doesn't work. -Stingy amt of supplies: 1 dishwasher pod, etc. Maybe that's the standard in Gulf Shores, but definitely doesn't feel hospitable for a place that sleeps 12 -Confusing communication after booking. An unsolicited & vague text from property mgmt read like spam. Before I engaged, I messaged the owner on VRBO to verify legitimacy -"Clean" bedding was sandy upon check-in This year we're driving 4 hrs further south to stay at a place w/almost same amenities, 1k more sf, but at half the price.

Beautiful house and location! Had everything we needed. The toy closet in the carport was a HUGE hit and saved us a ton of money. Did not have one single complaint and will definitely use yall again!

Condo was well equipped with condiments ; salt, pepper, coffee filters, Had enough pots and pans and other kitchen items . The storage closet outside was full of pails, shovels and floats of all sizes . I was very dissatisfied with the cleanliness of the place! Under the beds desperately needed dusting as did the ceiling fans. Trash can area in kitchen was filthy, trash cans outside were very smelly and need to be cleaned. The door in the upstairs master was hard to keep closed but the air conditioner worked well. Probably would not stay there again .

We weren’t sure what to expect after reading some bad reviews after we had already booked. If you are looking for “new” and fancy- this isn’t the home for you. You should go to a higher price point- like twice as high if those things are important. We were all pleasantly surprised and quite frankly think those low reviews are ridiculous! The kitchen has MORE than enough dishes, pots and pans and utensils. There were coffee filters, spices, laundry soap, dishwasher soap. The owners even provided big, thick beach towels and tons of beach toys, floats and chairs. The location can’t be beat. The pool was lovely and no smaller than any private home beach pool. Yes, you hear the neighbors going up the steps but they hear you also. It’s not a big deal. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5, is the beds upstairs (3 bedrooms up) really were not too comfortable according to my adult children. The king downstairs was fine for my husband and myself. We would love to make this home our annual family vacation rental if the mattresses get upgraded. But we had a wonderful stay and made fabulous memories!

I was going to elaborate on all these reviews and offer my thoughts as well but there is a 1500 char. limit so - pool IS MUCH smaller than you may think from the pics. but still did its job for our small ones in our stay. - Deck is in need of refinish and stain or paint. as well as the small walk out below the pool deck. -Plenty of cookware. Toaster size was fine. weird thing to review, Robert. -curtain situation is lacking BAD. two deck door curtains were upstairs in the bunk room and the window in living room was curtains just nailed up -we arrived an hour early, cleaner, a young college aged male, was finishing up. Assured him not to rush. Saying that, hire a better service. Very dusty fans, vents, bathroom vents. -Furniture is quite dingy -some outlets your plugs ins will just fall out of. Idk how else to explain. -floors aren't ideal for a beach house. They are worn and torn from elements. Also dont seemed to be put in correctly in many places. I think this is what one reviewer was considering "buckled" floors. - you WILL hear your neighbors obviously. Ours were great but sounded like a heard of buffalo going up and down stairs. Overall if you pay attention, and do research, this property seems to have been purchased not long ago and with some investment into the investment it can be better. Does need some very focused TLC. better than hauling crap up and down a condo though! would not rule out another stay and Tosha was great! 1500 char limit sucks VRBO!

pool is much, much smaller than pictured. Pool did not appear to have been cleaned prior to our arrival had sand in pool. Underwater pool light did not work.Missing deck umbrella at pool side. Some bathroom lights were out, interior floor laminate is peeling in places. Outside deck paint gone exposing rusted screw heads. Kitchen lacked the cookware for 12 people. Had a 2 slot toaster and a 6" diameter skillet for 12 people. Found a couple of wall outlets not working. Missing livingroom curtain, could not watch TV in daytime because of the sunlight glare off TV. We only had 6 people but felt crowed and disapointed with the amenities. For what was paid, we expected much better.
