This is my first time staying in a Vrbo property. It was a wonderful experience and exceeded expectations. It was well appointed and housed my entire extended family very comfortably. We especially enjoyed the game room. What an extra plus! It was an easy walk to the beautiful beach. I was so impressed with how accessible they were and how promptly they responded when we had questions and when we needed help, they went way above and beyond. Thank you for helping us create a marvelous family memory.
Host very welcoming and we loved the house and pool. The heated pool was my grand children’s favorite place. We also loved the playroom. Would definitely stay there again.
The location was great! The house is spread out a bit which was nice for privacy. The pool water stayed cool and refreshing! We would definitely stay here again!
We rented this house for our church youth group attending a conference, and it worked great. Half of our group stayed here at nights, but we used the main floor for meals and gathering times for our entire group during the days. The double kitchens were just perfect, and the games and pool were great too. The house was also easily in walking distance to the public access beach. Terrific place!
Location was great. House has recently been updated on the inside. We really enjoyed the pool, eating dinner on deck, and the proximity to the beach! Owner/management was very responsive and accommodating on very short notice!
The house was clean and had everything our group could ask for. From the private pool, to the huge beds, to the awesome screened in downstairs tiki bar area, I give this place a five star rating and it deserves it. Big thanks to the property manager who helped with everything we needed and for making the stay as effortless as possible!
We chose this property due to the fact that it could house our friend group. It was completely renovated and having a private pool in addition to proximity to the access for the beach. The property managers were responsive and care a lot.
Only thing that would have made it better would have been more beach towels.
Absolutely a fantastic place for family vacations. Excellent accommodations, clean, comfortable, everything they promised was there. Definitely a repeat guest in the future.
Plenty of room for everyone!2 full kitchens Large game room Nice patios front and back Overall great all the way aroundHost were quick to respond with questions we had!
Excellent location with close beach access to uncrowded pristine beaches. Loved the dual kitchen space, 3 total fridges and updated interior. Great stay and we highly recommend.
The property was wonderful. Spacious, double kitchens, plenty of room for the entire family. The pool being heated was wonderful due to it being a little chilly when the sun went down. Cleaning could've been a little better but overall a beautiful house and I would book again.
This beach home exceeded our expectations! It has two kitchens with plenty of room, the rooms were nice each equipped with a TV. The kids spent hours in the pool and the beach was well within walking distance.
We enjoyed our stay at Sunsation. The house and pool were very clean. We really liked being able to hang and play in the screened Tikki Bar area. The host was nice and very communicative. We would like to stay here again.
We spent 3 days here for a girls trip and it did not disappoint. The location is ideal -within a 2 minute walk to a series of incredible hikes and views at Muir Valley. The cabin is spacious and well stocked. We really enjoyed the porch.The beds were comfy. As another guest mentioned, we also ran into some issues with our code not working. It was remedied but the response time was about 30 minutes (we called, texted, and messaged the property managers).
Sunsation is a great property in gulf shores in prime location of great local restaurants. The property owner was a great communicator as well. I definitely recommend this property if your planning a stay in gulf shores.
There was More than enough room for my family of 13. We Loved the private pool and short walk from the beach. The host stayed communicating even if I was too busy to respond. It was really an overall great stay besides a few minor things.

The property was not like the photos . The doors barely closed and are old and warped the paint is chipping off ceiling .The filters in house appeared to not be changed for years .The wifi did not work .The Tvs either didnt have remotes or didnt have batteries. The fan remotes were either missing or didnt have batteries . The house was covered in sand on arrival and the pool deck was old And had nails sticking up. The pool had sand on bottom and a pool guy had to come clean it. There were no umbrellas like the photos By the pool, we had to go buy one. There was no cleaning supplies in the house. We had to go buy a mop to clean up the sand from someone else. Both dishwashers were full of dishes that were not ours that we had to put away. The grill in the pictures was propane not the same grill on the property wich was cheap charcoal. There are no coverings on the chairs like the photos out by the pool.The games in game room are rusted out not like the photos .The refrigeratorwas rusty and disgusting This property was completely misrepresented. The neighbors dogs barked entire time their property was a mess and pool was green . VRBO is supposed to check these properties out and let this one stay on their site so we lost out they had our money do we had to stay . The host said they would hire people to come fix some of the issues but our vacation was already interupted from start and we couldn't wait around for workers every day.I would NOT recommend this property to anyone.

Not impressed
So many 'little' things needed attention while our family of 17 stayed. Many things listed on the site were not as described. There were 6 pool chairs but unfortunately 3 were rusted and completely unable to be used due to all the material being ripped. The A/C dripped from the upstais down to the main floor in front of the master bedroom and when looking for towels to catch the water coming down, we found all the towels dirty sitting in the washing machine, not washed. The handle to the oven is broke, no top to the coffee pot and several ceiling fans not working...I could keep going but I'm sure you are getting the picture. When brought to the home owners attention, things were not taken care of in the time I was told it would be, some things were not made right. When wanting to use the grill, we had to wait for one to be delivered on day two but no propane with the grill until 9:30 p.m. so having to change plans for family of 17 was a major inconvenience to us over and over and over during our stay. Being with family from different states was great but this place needs attention from the owner.
