Perfect house!

The house was extremely clean and had tons of space for our 2 families. The beds were all very comfortable and had tons of “extra’s” like beach wagon, towels, laundry baskets, etc. The walk to the beach was very short, all around a great house to stay in. Owner was extremely friendly also! Will definitely stay here again!

Stay at Surfing Turtle!!!

We had a large group with us for our Memorial Day trip. The house was perfect! Very spacious, clean, beautifully decorated. The kids enjoyed the air hockey table down stairs while the adults were able to enjoy the private backyard screened porch. The owners were super nice and went out of their way to make sure we had a terrific trip. They had prepared a beach wagon that had everything ( toys, umbrella, chairs), extra beach towels were in the laundry room. Fully stocked the kitchen with any appliances or dishes needed to feed a large group. They did a great job preparing this house for guest. Perfect location (less than 5min walk to the beach), (less than 5min walk to beach store/grocery store), ( 10 min walk to the Hangout). I know everytime we go to Gulf Shores in the future we will try hard to stay at Surfing Turtle. We have already recommended it to many of our friends.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND

First off let me say I love the name Surfing Turtle!! How fun is that? The house is really big, plenty of room for our three families. The game room was a nice surprise! We had air hockey tournaments every night. Love the location, just across the street from the beach! We actually walked back to the house for lunch and we didn't even try to find a bathroom, we just walk back to the house it was so close it's like 2 maybe 3 minutes to walk back. Where the house is located the beach is almost empty. Restaurants and shopping are in walking distance. The deck is huge. We barbecued almost every night. The kitchen had everything we needed. There's multiples of everything including coffee pots and toasters. We absolutely have found our new vacation spot!!! We would recommend to anyone who vacations in this area!!!! 5 STARS FOR SURE!

What More Could You Need?

Without question this was my best experience renting any property! The property was very clean, nicely decorated, and had plenty of room for us all (Yes we had 16 total people). Location wise it is ideal, a very short walk to the beach, close to restaurants, and entertainment. We are already planning our next trip for a longer stay. Cannot wait to stay here again!
