This property was perfect for our stay in Gulf Shores. It was walking distance to one of our favorite restaurants, Mikee’s . It was close enough to the State Park to ride our bikes from the property to the trails in the park. There is also a nice dog park about a mile away for our fur babies to enjoy.

The property was just like the pictures, the location was great only a 3 minute walk to the beach, and pretty close to other places like restaurants, convenience stores and gift shops. The host was responsive and polite. Would book again.

So happy with our stay

We had such a great 3 day visit and having the perfect place to stay made that happen. We loved being close enough to walk everywhere...beach, shops, food and even a wildlife sanctuary where we saw an alligator! The home was so convenient, clean and very comfortable!! We would love to come again! Highly recommend

Overall great

This stay was for a fishing trip. I was able to park my boat along with my truck. The location was great. The price was good too. The house itself could use a few minor repairs that I’m sure will be fixed since tourist season is over.

Affordable, modest location

Not the fanciest place we've stayed but very reasonably priced and location was near to events we were attending. The interior is showing some wear and tear but was clean and the furniture/beds were comfortable (I would rate mattresses as medium firmness). As others mentioned, ceiling fans in the bedrooms would help with comfort. We will likely stay here again next time we are in town for an event.

We loved being able to walk everywhere especially to the beach. The property is clean. I will say that you definitely need to bring extra toilet paper and towels. Other than that, we look forward to booking again.

The abode was very clean and exact what was in the pictures. The location was close to everything we needed which made for a great stay not having to drive everywhere...

Great location

The location was perfect for our stay. Overall a great property but a couple of recommendations: it would have been helpful to have a broom, toaster and some dish soap. Also the shower curtain liner is too long and has the potential for causing falls in the shower.

Great time at Gulf Shores

The property was very comfortably furnished and nicely decorated. The kitchen was well supplied with dishware, glasses, utensils, & cooking pans. The bathroom was clean and the shower was great! The bedrooms were also nicely decorated and had comfortable beds - though we only slept in one of them! Importantly, the beach was less than a five-minute walk from the house, and good restaurants abounded. We highly recommend this rental.

Love Gulf Shores

First time we decided to stay off the beach and it turned out to be a great idea. The add says 10 minutes from the beach but it’s actually closer than that. Extremely close to restaurants and all the fun you can stand.

Perfect

Short stay, three nights Location absolutely great, off main roads so easy in and out while quiet/no traffic, 3 short blocks to beach, easy walk to several good restaurants, quick drive to many more Amenities were good, agree with review about length of shower curtain, bar should be raised 3 or 4 inches to eliminate the tripping/fall hazard; would recommend bringing/buying your own TP, single ply stuff provided not very good. Definitely recommended!

Gulf Shores

The unit is in a great location, about two blocks/five minute walk to the beach. It's a little dated, but had great A/C and a really nice washer/dryer combo. As stated in the notice, only one starter roll of TP and paper towels, so be prepared to take/buy more. Limited towels, but can wash as needed, but have extra detergent/dryer sheets on hand. Limited TV channels, but at the beach that's not an issue for us. Could use some upgrades in bathroom and bedding, but sufficient for what we needed.

Almost Perfect

The property was nice, clean and close to everything. The only downside was the area right outside the property wasn't pet friendly. My dog immediately got several thorns in her paw. After that indcident. I didn't let her walk around the area of the property. I had to take her accorss the street in the grassy area to do her business. Other than that, the property was great.
