Gulf Shores Live after Five

This property has great potential, but the property was run down and not well loved. The house is right next to public beach access, with a large condo building across the street so the beach was crowded. There were several charcoal grills available on the property despite us being told there were none, so that was a pleasant surprise. While we had appliances brrak down during our stay, the property manager was very responsive.

Good location

This home has a practical layout and a good location. We had 4 adults and two kids under the age of 7 and the space was fine. There is no way I would have more than the 6 total even though the listing suggests more. The furnishings were fair. The overall condition of the home needs attention. There were numerous carpet stains, shredded interior doors, a terrible exterior door situation (the kids could not close or open on their own because of swelling) and the decking on the lower level was uneven and rotting. The operation of the television was complicated with no instructions provided. If you are looking for location the home is fine - about a mile and a half from the center of the commercial beach area. New construction was all around, but this is an older home. If you are looking for luxury this is not the listing. Seemed a bit overpriced for the condition.

Wonderful getaway

Even though you aren’t by yourself with a private beach it really feels like it are. This location is in a quiet area that’s not far away from everything. The house is completely amazing. If I had to find one thing that could have been better is the mattresses. They are pretty firm which some people like so to each their own. I would absolutely stay here over and over again!!

Needs a few update

I just love gulf shores. We notice a mouse in home due to different packages where chewed on. We had to put everything in cabinets/refrigerator The couches are breaking down very uncomfortable. The bathroom upstairs mirror cannot see self. Need a roof on porch I loved downstairs bedrooms and bathroom. It was very clean and communication was excellent. Beach view absolutely beautiful. We bought a canvas cover so we could sit outside.
