This was our family vacation and we had given this to our children and grandchildren as a Christmas Gift. Having visited Gulf Shores for years throughout my childhood, I was so excited for this experience and to share with my family. We have 5 children and several grandchildren. This house was perfect. The amount of space and set up of rooms could not have been better. 4 large rooms upstairs all with on suite bathrooms as well as ceiling fans that were perfect. We never had issues with the home being too hot and boy was it hot outside. July visit! There was a washer and dryer as well as a small refrigerator on this level as well. This allowed for morning coffee and late-night snacks without having to travel and bother anyone in the early and late hours. The main level had 2 bedrooms as well, one having the on-suite bathroom. All bedrooms (8) had king size beds with all the needed linens and pillows. The kitchen was appropriately stocked with utensils, pot and pans as well as blender, coffee maker and ice maker. (Game changer) The basement was set up beautifully for our daughter and her 4 small children that included a room with 4 bunk beds and a living area as well as a kitchen and full-size refrigerator. The best part that was a potential negative to some that was a positive for us with small children was that there was only 1 access to the beach which was from the basement sliding glass doors. This allowed the children to be on the main and top levels without having to worry about them escaping to the pool or beach. Deck space was good. The grill area was outside our door and was very nice. Had a area for seating and visiting well cooking. Yes, like most rentals on the beach, there were some upgrades that could have been made and a hose that didn't have a working sprayer. The only real concern that I had was that the walkway to the beach was in pretty bad shape and had several boards that were sticking up. We made it work! Overall, the family had a great time and look forward to our next vacation in Gulf Shores. We would rent this property again or sure! Thanks for all the memories made in this house that we will cherish forever.

We loved this spacious home with lots of room for our five families! The beach was uncrowded and plenty of space for the kids to play. Hope we get to come back!

The house overall was a great size and though we had 10 adults, 3 toddlers and an infant, we never felt crowded. However, check in was difficult and we had to spend 15 minutes on the phone with support to get a code that opened the front door. Customer support was great and very responsive but a frustrating experience none the less. The house needs some extensive maintenance to repair broken appliances, a deep clean of air filtration systems and dryer vents and repair of leaky windows. The back deck is fabulous but getting out there was a pain sometimes because the doors kept jamming. The kitchen is well appointed (we cooked every meal in it and had everything we needed to do so). The bath towels provided need to be REPLACED! The pools across the street are small but perfect for our toddler situation. If you need a house with plenty of space and you want to cook for large crowds, this is for you. Just set your expectations. We love Orange Beach and will return in 2 years for another reunion but will likely choose another house.

Plenty of room for 21 people, nice pools, almost private beach, nice, clean grills

Loved the large living area and dining area. Great access to the beach without a lot of people on top of us. Highly recommend!

The house was described accurately in the listing. It is perfect for multi-generational families. The bunk room for children is on ground floor which made it ideal for them to go directly to the sand and play. Grills are not allowed at the house or beach but there was a electric griddle which made it easy to cook for a large group. The open kitchen is also ideal for large group meals. The one issue we had was handled quickly and professionally.
