Pool was beautiful, but the fire ants were terrible property needed to be sprayed. Lots of things in the house were broken. I did take pictures! Was not notified when anyone was coming to clean the pool so that we could put our dog away they just opened up the gate and came in. Then 2 Days Later a crew came to retile the hot tub with no notification,so that whole day I wasn't able to use the pool tell they left.

Overall was a good stay, great location with walking distance to the beach no need to struggle and pay for parking. You could hear the people above us but it wasn’t as crazy as people would make it seem. Pool and jacuzzi were great. Downside that you have to bring anything and everything if you’re wanting to cook at home, no salt or pepper even provides no basic condiments, no proper pans to cook eggs, No beach equipment. Nothing extra very vanilla. May try out a hotel instead for the price we paid.

Will Stay Again!

Perfect getaway for a family of 4 with our pup. We loved the pool and backyard area. It felt like our own private oasis, which was exceptionally wonderful while the beaches were closed. The management company was friendly, responsive, and helpful whenever I had questions. We will definitely stay again.

Great Place on the Beach

This place was perfect getaway for me and my teen girls! Walking distance to the beach, restaurants and shops. Very clean and comfy accommodations. Hang out was so fun with live music and good food! Hot tub was perfect for the cooler days. Can't wait to come back to beautiful Gulf Shores!! ❤️

My husband booked this hoping for the best. We could absolutely hear EVERYTHING going on upstairs. If you are uncomfortable with sharing a small pool space with another family, this is not the place for you. The biggest kicker js that when we arrived, we were overwhelmed with what smelled like fumes. We immediately called maintenance who came quickly. He said they’ve dealt with that smell for a long time and they couldn’t figure out where it’s coming from, but it’s most likely Chinese dry walls and the humidity brings the fume scent out. We went out and bought plug ins and candles to try to help. Those who get migraines easily might not love that. But it did get better over time. It’s jn a convenient location, and the backyard is cute. Again it’s ideal if you’re ok with sharing a space and don’t mind upstairs noise. We loved the Panama Jack travel toiletry box. That was a nice touch.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the convenient location, backyard, and welcome amenities. Our team responded promptly when contacted regarding the odor, and we appreciate you bringing your concerns to our attention. As this is a shared property, some noise and shared use of the pool area can occur. We appreciate your feedback and thank you for staying with BEACHBALL PROPERTIES.

We loved the house and neighborhood. Just a heads up to those staying on the ground level, you can hear people moving on the second floor. We were actually woken up at 2a.m because someone upstairs decided to have a mini party. The pool was nice and so was the hot tub. However, it was a bit dirty on the bottom. I understand that the trees around it drops leaves, but the stuff on the bottom had been there a while. And the hot tub had sand in it, but it was still enjoyable.Overall, we loved it and would stay again.

Nice Place.

Cute little place and loved the pool. There are little things I think that need to be provided for guests for paying that much to stay. I think more than one roll of toilet paper and paper towels should be provided. The ceiling above the shower needs to be repaired before mold starts growing and the hot tub needs to be cleaned and scrubbed. Other than that we had a great time and it's nice place to stay.

Duplex

Check in was easy. If there is people staying in the top part of the duplex good luck trying to get sleep because it will sound like a heard of buffalos stomping around up there. If there is people staying in the top would be nice to know if there is going to be. The pool wasn't cleaned the people in the top of the duplex called 3 times about it and I called once and they said they would have someone come out and clean it never happened the bottom of the duplex flooded due to a failed French drain so before you get it make sure the French drain is fixed if not it will flood be prepared.

Cute place

Everything was pretty good except the hottub wont get over 92°. Told maintenance, they shrugged shoulders. It was the only reason we booked fhis place because of the semi private pool and hot tub. And we couldnt enjoy it. Also, out little yorkie couldnt walk around in the yard because of all the sticker bushes. He kept getting them in his feet.

This property was not definitely not worth the price! Mattress needs to be replaced in second bedroom. There are hardly any electrical outlets anywhere. Lighting was extremely poor! Hot tub never reached the set temperature and the grounds needed cleaning up.
