Wonderful location. Peaceful and close to beach

Wonderful Beach House and Vacation!

We just returned from our stay at the Sunny Shores Beach House. It is a beautiful home with great amenities and well maintained. Our host was very attentive in helping to resolve a couple of minor challenges. The home is very updated, spacious, and had everything we could want. It is located a very short walk from a beautiful beach and close to many nearby amenities. We couldn’t have chosen a better home for our vacation, so much so my girlfriend is planning on returning later this year with her adult daughters. Definitely a great value and great host…book your vacation now!

No Shoes Nation

Came down for the weekend to see Kenny chesney at the wharf. House was well furnished with everything we needed and was clean but had a few ant issues. Backyard space would be really fun with a big group if there was more seating, a better volleyball net and a yard kept up to walk barefoot in. It was a good weekend trip and we only had to walk 5 minutes to be on the beach.

Great for my family close to the beach

We really enjoyed the location of the house. I do feel the cleanliness of it could definitely be better. Our host was very attentive to all of our needs, but we were unable to use one of the rooms due to It being not clean. Since we stayed over the holiday, it would’ve been a couple days until someone was able to clean it. Therefore, two of our family members had to stay on the couch. Overall, we still enjoyed our trip

Great beach house!

If you're looking for a place to stay with your dog, this is it! The house is spectacular - - everything you need. And a fenced in backyard for the dogs to run around. A short walk to the beach (and a private beach at that). Very quiet at night. There is a Dollar General close by that has groceries and essentials. If you want to travel to Gulf Shores it is about a 20 min or so drive. The gazebo in the backyard is amazing (we turned on the fire pit and relaxed). The kitchen is full stocked. The house is super clean (and I appreciate a host that stocks hand soap, it's the simple things). We will definitely be booking this house again. Cheers!

Beach House

This is a spacious unit that easily can accomodate 15-20 people if you choose to host that many. There was no issues for us. We had plenty of space for the 6 people in our group. The beach is a short walk, or you can drive one car and park close. We walked most days. The fire pit was a nice perk we enjoyed late at night. The front deck was nice for sunsets ( a bit warm in the afternoons but it is what it is). The best sunset sunrise spots are the beach! Take the ferry ride to Dolpin Island. We saw lots of Dolpins near 5pm on the ride back and really made the day extra special. You can't go wrong with this place. The owner is very easy to deal with and checked in to make sure we were doing ok.

Fort Morgan/Gulf Shores

Very responsive host. Open floor plan with tasteful decor and plenty of seating for guests. Kitchen well stocked with utensils, plate settings, and cookware. Appliances in good condition. Accommodating bedrooms in main level. Other bonuses: Enclosed outdoor shower; relaxing fenced back yard with gazebo, propane fire pit, and lights; deck in front of house with seating. And of course the pristine, white sandy beach a short walk down the road. Things to know: the home is located in a private community that is 12 miles away from the nearest grocery store in Gulf Shores and other amenities. The Cabana Estates seems to be a growing area with new home construction. Road to home is @.5 miles off highway and unpaved.

Wonderful spot-a real gem

We had the best time on this vacation. We arrived and the house was spotless-I have never stayed at a VRBO so wonderfully clean. It felt very much like a nice hotel-the towels were white and fluffy and beautifully arranged. There was a nice thank you note from the owner and a canvas tote filled with treats for the kids. The house was open and bright-tastefully decorated. The kitchen was well appointed-it was missing a toaster-and the owner sent one over immediately! Couldn’t ask for a more gracious host There was a keurig coffee maker-which came with a million different flavored pods. We brought our own pour over coffee (we are a little coffee crazy) but the kids LOVED making cocoa in the keurig after the beach.. The beds were incredibly comfortable. We stayed with 2 boys-ages 10 and 13. They each had their own room and bathroom. We enjoyed having our coffee in the morning on the front porch or our wine in the evening. The backyard is wonderful-there is a fun sand volleyball court in the fenced backyard and a fire pit in a charming little cabana. We would come back from a sunset walk on the beach and play volleyball and roast S’mores, great memories made. The location is steps from the beach-the neighborhood is quiet and charming. Our last night we ordered a shrimp boil from Sassy’s convenience store-for $100 you get the huge pot filled with corn, potatoes sausage and shrimp-it takes about an hour to cook and is heavenly. On the day we were supposed to leave, there were tornado warnings, and the owner kindly let us stay a bit after checkout so we could wait out the storms. Really one of the best Vrbo experiences we have ever had-and we stay at them often. We have already asked if we can return next year!! 5 stars all the way around.

Cabana Beach

Great property with super easy access to the beach. Really enjoyed our long weekend stay here. The fenced in back yard was perfect for the dogs to play and house itself had plenty of room and bathrooms to fit everyone comfortably. The walk to the beach was short but it was also nice to have the option to drive all the stuff down and park and unload the beach supplies.

Wonderfully versatile property for families

We had a last minute booking at Cabana Beach due to a problem at another property, and it did not disappoint! We only used the upper rooms due to the size of our party and stayed 4 nights. It's clear that the property has recently undergone renovations, and they've done a great job. There are definitely some finishing touches still needed (cabinets and drawers need pulls installed, some crown molding left undone in the master bath), but the house is generally super clean and nice (my wife is very picky, and she expressed numerous times that she would stay here again). We loved the open kitchen/dining/living area. The outdoor area is nice as well. We were pleasantly surprised with the huge icemaker provided, and it was nice to have covered parking as well. The fenced back yard area has a great little gazebo with a propane firepit. Some suggestions for improvement (we would stay here again regardless) > have Roku sticks in all TVs and ensure TV remotes work (the bunk bed room did not have one) > clear out roots and other growth in the sandy backyard area > leave an electric blower accessible to the guests so they can blow sand off the covered area and gazebo > There was a fair amount of trash on the grounds outside (we cleaned up some). Have cleaners make rounds on the outside of the property as well > install pulls on cabinets and drawers > finish crown molding in master bath

Fun in the sun

We had a great stay. The beach is very convenient to the house. The ice machine and outdoor shower were fantastic amenities that made our stay so much smoother. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space (we had 2 adult children and 2 teens with us) but also big enough gathering areas to enjoy time together.
