Everything was perfect!! IF I had to make one suggestion it would be to add a little more silverware. Check in and out was very easy and the host checked in to make sure we got in and everything was good.

Great Stay
This is a great place and very comfortable. A bit sandy in house and downstairs where beach toys are kept and where outside shower and faucet are. Downstairs needs to be washed down of sand which would slow tracking it in house but I have to admit it’s a beach home and sand is part of the territory you’re in. The owner was very kind and always available for questions. I would definitely stay here again.

Highly Recommend!
This beach house was perfect for our family! Great floorplan with a private bath for each bedroom. Wonderful windows in the great room with an awesome view of the beach. Great kitchen with lots of dishes and appliances. This was very nice for us as we have little ones and stay in for most meals. Loved having the large table with lots of seating so all our family could all eat together. Great outdoor space and very close walk down to the beach. We had a wonderful stay and will be booking this house again!

Family Vacay Gulf Shores
Beautiful Gulf Shores home that was perfect for our family vacation (ages 2 to 75)! The layout of the home is perfect with the large open living and dining room with bedrooms on the four corners, all with en suite bathrooms. Kitchen was well stocked. Plenty of sand toys provided to keep our 2 year old entertained for hours. Beach chairs also provided but we decided to go with beach service from High Wave 59 (highwave59.com). Beach was fantastic and the most private of any home we’ve stayed along the gulf (PCB, Destin, Navarre)!Owners Taylan and Michelle were very welcoming and checked in on us to make sure we were settled. Also quick responses to a couple questions we had along the way. Highly recommend this home for your family and/or friends. We are already looking forward to planning our trip for next year.

Family Christmas in Gulf Shores
This property was perfect for our family of 10. Loved that each bedroom had its own bathroom. The home was very spacious with an amazing view. What you see from the pictures is exactly what you get. I would definitely recommend this property, especially for a large group.

Heron/June Trip
The property was nice and we enjoyed staying there. The floors were a little sandy. Just FYI, the vent in front of the closet doors leaked when it rain. It was awesome to have beach chairs there for our use and the kitchen was outfitted well. You may be aware of this but the hinges on the storage box outside were rusted and pulled away from the box. We will definitely consider renting it again. It was perfect for our family.

Amazing owners
The owners of this property were so helpful with everything and always immediately responded to questions or concerns. The floor plan of the house is perfect for families. Every bedroom has its own bathroom and all adult couples had a comfortable king size bed. More than enough room for kids in the bunk room with two queen size bunks. We were thrilled and amazed at the wildlife.. and were so lucky to see a large sea turtle come ashore and lay eggs, then return to the gulf the first night we were there. We loved our stay and had a wonderful time.
