Wonderful Stay

We absolutely enjoyed staying at your beautiful home. Perfect location, quiet, and peaceful. The fishing dock was a favorite for my family who loves to fish, and the easy access to the ocean was a major plus. Every about our stay was lovely. Thank you so much!

Had a great time. Lot of space. Lot to do. The neighbors sometimes had 6-8 cars there. Pool got crowded. But understandable. Nice short walk to the beach. Nice restaurants. Beaches were clean. Would recommend

Perfect

I am a first time Vrbo renter and could not be more pleased with the experience. Lagoon was peaceful, pool perfect size and distance to the beach a short walk. I had my whole family on this vacation and it was beyond words! We had enough room indoors and out, loved that we could grill, loved the dining tables inside and out were large enough for us all to gather.

a great Thanksgiving

This property was great. It was the best of both world with the lagoon in the back and the beach right across the street. The only thing I would say is that it is not really a 5 bedroom because the bunks are really in the hallway but this was not really a problem for us. We all had a wonderful holiday.

We loved it and it was perfect for us! We didn’t realize it was a duplex until we arrived but our neighbors were very kind and polite as well. The pool was small but worked well, and the location was perfect. Any issue we had was resolved quickly. We will stay again!!

Family vacation 2023

We had a wonderful week in Gulf Shores! The house is very nice and 11 of us stayed very comfortable. We loved the pool and used it everyday. The weather cooperated and we left 2 snow storms and -15 temps behind. I would recommend this property for sure! Just realize that this is the west unit and there is an east unit and you do share the pool and parking and dock.

Slice of Heaven

Our group of 11, (11 years and up) enjoyed our stay on the West side of this property. It was a prime location to the beach, which I noticed not all properties in this area are privy to. House was well stocked. Pool area was clean. Dock area was beautiful! Check in and check out were super easy. Lots of memories made. Thanks!!

The house was amazing and great location.

The how has access to Little lagoon in the back and about 2 blocks walk to the beach in front. The owners have a book with recommended sites and restaurants. We did several outings and beach days. Very laid-back town for a relaxing vacation. I recommend if you fish to pick up poles and a license on your first day. Fishing off the peer in back was fun for all. The little general store up the road has everything you need to fish. Enjoy.

Just okay

The inside of this property is beautiful. I had absolutely no issues there. The outside, though, leaves a lot to be desired. There are broken lounge chairs everywhere, which seem to be forgotten about. There are weeds completely overtaking the sand area. The pavers are cracked and broken. The pool area is beautiful, as well as the dock. All in all; it was a nice home, but for the price and from photos, I would have expected a little more maitenance.

Excellent property

Fantastic weekend stay with group of friends and family in town for the triathlon. We rented both East and East houses. Perfect location. Loved fishing and crabbing in the lagoon. Kids enjoyed the pool time. Very spacious indoors, and common areas outside on the joining decks and under the house for cooking and cocktails. My only suggestion is bring a fan for sitting outside on decks this time of year! Kitchen was very well stocked, as was the storage area for pool toys. Highly recommend and can’t wait to return next year!

Perfect Vacation Spot

We had an absolutely amazing time during our stay! The house was perfect for our group. There was plenty of room for everyone. The kitchen has everything you need and more, the beds were comfortable, the common area has tons of seating so no-one feels left out and there were plenty of outdoor spaces for everyone to relax. The location could not have been better. With our own pool and pier and a VERY short walk to the beach, we barely left the area. The owners were very personable and made sure we had everything we needed. I don't usually write reviews, but this one deserves 5 stars. Will be re-booking this property if we decide to visit the area again!

Fantastic Gulf Experience

The location of Waterside West was PERFECTLY nestled between the lagoon and the Gulf of Mexico. Only one block from the beautiful beach and just steps from the lagoon. Within walking distance to the beach, to the market, or to a nearby restaurant for a quiet relaxing stay. Jellyfish getting in the way of your beach experience? No worries!!! This property has a gorgeous saline pool. We pretty much lived in it all week. The house was spacious, well-stocked, and everything else that it said it would be. We will be back next year. Thank you!

I forgot to establish how kind and helpful the Owners are. We had a special need they took care of

We had an outstanding vacation at this Beach House with a refreshing salt water pool. The Gulf was sparklingly clear and warm, and easily accessible to the home. The house slept 12 comfortably and had a huge open space for all 11 of us to gather in the LR and kitchen. The kitchen was very nicely furnished with plenty of room for 3 of us to prepare an occasional full meal. Our family of 11 enjoyed every aspect of the house. We are in our mid-70's, so it was great that we had a BR downstairs; the adult children and Grandblessings loved their privacy upstairs. It's important that I emphasize how kind and helpful the owners are. We had a special ne ed and they took care of it without charge. We eagerly look forward to returning! The Goforth Family

This property was not represented as a duplex unit. The pictures show a complete house listing. My whole group could not believe what we were left with when entering property designated East and West units. So we get everything inside with a downbeat and get to the beach for a checkout. That was good. Then all us grownups sit on back porch to enjoy evening and start smelling odors from the southwest which is an overgrown property piece. Well the orders are from a sewage pump lift station for that whole side of the peninsula. We constantly smelled crappy odors all the time outside. I got to talk to two utility workers that come by daily to the pump station. It’s a big deep holding well. This was not disclosed. Another thing our dishes inside were mostly all dirty. Had to hand wash them. The dishwasher needs cleaning probably and checkout. It did not clean well. Anyone looking to stay here needs to ask about the lift station next door and being a duplex. Another thing the owner got upset when I told him about problems. I can’t believe anyone giving this site an excellent rate. Did not think to take photos.
