We can’t recommend this VRBO enough! This is our third stay, and it continues to be our favorite. The location is perfect, with convenient access to both the beach and the bay, and the layout is spacious, comfortable, and ideal for our family. The host is incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with, and the unit is clean and thoughtfully stocked with everything you could need and more for a relaxing stay. We keep coming back for a reason and are already looking forward to our next visit!

Property was close to the beach and had easy access. The additional beach supplies that were supplied were great as well. The parking situation is a little tight for bigger vehicles was very challenging getting in/out with a large van/SUV. Overall was a great experience though.

Great rental

My son had a tournament in town and this was a perfect place for my kids and I to stay. Directly across front the beach so we could walk, a pool for an easy way to get the kids energy out and a beautiful view of the lagoon. We loved our stay and highly recommend it.

Perfect spot for two families of four with teens and younger children. Access to the lagoon in the back and the beach right across the street. Carrie made the process seamless and everything was exactly as listed/as she stated. Will visit again.

WV to Gulf Shores

Our stay was amazing! Plenty of room for all us, and the location was perfect! The sunrises and sunsets over the lagoon are absolutely beautiful. The beach is right across the street with easy access and not overly crowded. The condo location was the perfect distance from down town. We were minutes away from anything we wanted to do. Overall our entire stay was perfect. I hope to come back and stay at Carrie’s again.

Beach house

We had an amazing stay. Plenty of room for our family. Absolutely loved the lagoon with access to the water for all kinds of outdoor activities. The pool was a good size for all staying there. My grandson absolutely loved the upstairs space. Very clean and plenty of towels for showers. Kitchen is very well stocked. Both bathrooms are nice sized. Over all we loved our time spent there. Can’t wait to go back next year. 😊😊

Perfect for Everyone

With teenagers it’s hard to make everyone happy when it comes to picking vacation houses. This was our second time staying in this property and we will be back again. I love the ease of booking, communicating with Carrie, checking in, and checking out. The teenagers love that the pool, pier, kayak, and bay are so close. The husband loves that everyone is happy and he can sit out and see all of his people happy without being worried about running around finding them all. We love watching the sunset from the balcony or the pool or the pier. 10/10 again, don’t change a thing!!

Had a great time. Carrie took care of us big time. Condo was very clean and comfy. This place is batting well above the mark for similar places in this price range. We had a group of 6 adults and 4 children with no issues at all spacewise. Great view of the lagoon. Overall a great place to rent out. Thanks again!!

The location was great and the views of the lagoon were beautiful! Parts of the condo seemed a little dated and the loft was a little stuffy, as heat rises, but overall, it was clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay!

Best Location Hands Down!

If you are looking for a place to stay that is close to everything yet far enough away that the beaches aren't shoulder to shoulder, this is it! This condo is clean, spacious enough for a large family (we are a family of 7) and in the best location. My kids LOVED the bay and fished every evening. The kayaks included with the condo were a huge plus. The beach is literally as close as crossing the street. Such a great find! If we ever come back to GS, we will be looking to stay here!!
