Nice location dirty property

Floors were filthy including food and wrappers under the bed, socks, bare feet, even towels were black after being on the floor for a short period of time. Living room furniture was sticky with food in between cushions. Only two rolls of toilet paper. Bent/broken doors, broken toilet seat, and broken chair on the front porch.Overall appearance of property was unkept.

Just “ok”

The home was fairly clean, but really needed some maintenance. The main thing is absolutely no privacy in the living room at night. There’s a big sliding glass door with a 100% see through sheer covering it. It faces the street and anyone can see in. Overall it was just ok.

Gulf Shores letdown

This home is in a good area. Easy walking distance to the main area. Easy check in. Manager was prompt when contacted. However, the property needs some love and maintenance. Things like ripped screens on the back deck, grungy corners. On the whole this property needs some upgrading.

Gross

This was our 1st time staying in Gulf Shores. The listing was not as pictured on Vrbo. Check in was a breeze you get everything a couple of days in advance that was a plus. On arrival When you 1st walk in, there was a very strong musty smell. As to proceed to enter we noticed the flooring was warped and damage to the flooring, closet door was dented in, sliding glass door in bedroom would not lock, the screen on the back deck was hanging.I contacted the owner she was able get maintenance out the next day. I went and got cleaning supplies to do some lite cleaning to try and get the smell out. We had intentions to grill but that was a no. The grill was nasty and rusty. The bedding was nasty did not smell clean. I rewashed everything we would be using as well as washed everything before we left to insure the next guest had clean sheets and towels. I could go on and on with things. At the end of the day I was just grateful to be with my family. If I was the owner I would definitely look into hiring a new cleaning service and maintenance. The gentleman that came out to look did say he knew the screen had been damaged but he hadn’t been there in a while. I’m not putting all the blame on the property owner. She hires ppl to do these things and if they don’t bring it to her attention she cant do nothing about it. The pillows need to be updated when stripping my daughter’s pillows it was nasty and orange.

Wonderful place, great host

I was in Gulf Shores with some friends for the annual shrimp festival. The locations is perfect. The place was very clean. Kitchen had every utensil and cookware you could need. The washer and dryer were very handy. Furniture of good quality and sturdy. Beds comfortable. The screened in deck off the master bedroom was a great bonus and I enjoyed sitting out there with my morning coffee. The host was very responsive to any inquiries and problems. There was a problem with the bathtub drain and she had someone out there to fix it ASAP. I would definitely stay here again.

Space or commodity?

Overall this was an okay place to stay. We booked for a last minute weekend trip, we didn’t have many options. If we were to come back, we wouldn’t stay here again. Good things: A lot of space, has 3 bedrooms and lots of beds. Washer and dryer in unit. Every room has a TV. They leave mini shampoo and conditioner bottles. Bad things: outdated furniture, kitchen dishes and utensils are stored in iffy ways, we washed everything before using it, Shower drains were clogged, bed linens and towels had stains on them, Mattresses and mattress covers were really bad stained and old, house floors were sandy when we checked in, stains on the walls and baseboards specially on the kitchen island, and worse of all- AC never cooled the house. It’s July and it never got colder than 70, we were hot all night and sweaty. Feels like the coldest 70 degrees was between 5-8am. This is huge for me since it’s literally summer, we traveled with a big family and after being outside all day you want to come home to a cool place. Also, on the last night we were there the fire/carbon monoxide alarm went crazy ringing every few mins. We called and texted the owner around 9-10pm and received a reply back next day around 6:30am. It wouldn’t stop going off and we weren’t sure why, we ended up calling 911 and they dispatched a fire truck who came to inspect the house and make sure it wasn’t carbon monoxide. They said the house isn’t wired correctly so something set it off but it was safe to go back. Nope.

Can’t wait too book again!

Everything about this property was perfect. Location was just the right amount of distance from traffic so we didn’t hear loud vehicles all night, but close enough to walk to restaurants and souvenir shops. Being able to park our vehicle beneath the rental saved us whenever the rain came. Plus the shade kept our vehicle cool in the summer heat. Kids loved sitting on the screened-in back patio anytime we took a break from activities. The canal behind the property is a bonus if you bring a kayak or SUP board. If there were any cons, I’d have to say water pressure in the hallway bathroom is noticeably weaker than the bathroom inside the bedroom. Not a real issue though since the kids preferred the weaker pressure. We truly enjoyed our stay. Can’t wait to book again!

Nice little duplex

This is a nice little duplex on the canal in the middle of Gulf Shores. Easy walk to store and restaurants nearby. Couple of blocks to the beach. Property was a little old but maintained fairly well. Bedrooms were spacious and beds very comfortable. Screened porch was nice to have on the back facing the canal.
