Family vacay

The house was super clean and the host is very responsive. Beds are comfy! Easy walk to the beach and so nice to have beach essentials provided. Chairs, wagon and beach toys! The only issue we had was running out of toilet paper and no dishwasher tablets- easy fix! Had the best time!

The property is beautiful and comfortable. The floor was slippery the first day and the host quickly offered to have the cleaning team mop to make it less slippery. We declined but as our stay went on the floor became less slippery. Beds were comfortable. The kitchen was disorganized but clean. Within walking distance to Pier 33. Walmart was close. Even though the property is only 1 block off the main drag it was peaceful and quiet. I would stay again.

The house is awesome! Plenty of space and the short walk to the beautiful beach was amazing. We've stayed at houses ON the beach that had longer walks. Communication with owners was super easy. Plenty of restaurants and shops within walking distance. Walmart a couple miles away for all the necessities. I was the tiniest bit concerned with the house being a duplex but it was never an issue in any way, shape, or form. There was never any noise transfer from the other side. The balconies were great for morning coffee and evening refreshments. We would definitely stay in this house again. Bring your favorite beach towels or buy some souvenir towels from the surf shop, the house just has bath/shower/kitchen towels.

Why they chose this property

On a quiet street only 1 block to the beach and walkable to so many other places in Gulf Shores, what's not to love? The Hangout is .7miles away, and an easy walk. The Wharf Amphitheater and Flora-Bama are both only a 20 minute drive away.

What makes this property unique

3 balconies await you for relaxation, and the beach is only 1 block away (1 minute walk). We provide our guests with a beach wagon, 4 beach chairs, and sand toys. Feel like exploring, walk to The Hangout for some good food and GREAT music. Lauria's by the Beach is also outstanding, and right around the corner. Thirsty? Head to the famous Pink Pony! It's all right there!
