we had a group of 11 - from an 8 month old to a 92 year old - with plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms, and area to socialize. the house was perfect for our needs! access to the beach was easy and Bobby at Gulf Shore Beach Rental was excellent to work with regarding tents and chairs. He came daily to set up and tear down!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that the house was a perfect fit for your group, what a special gathering, spanning generations from 8 months to 92 years! We're also glad the space provided everything you needed to relax and socialize comfortably.
It’s great to know beach access was convenient and that Bobby from Gulf Shore Beach Rental helped make your experience even smoother. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to him as well. We’d love to welcome you all back for another memorable stay!
Everything was great. The only complaint was the wi-fi. It went out often. Other than that it as great.

Everything was wonderful from booking to checking out. Communication was effective and timely. I have never booked through Vrbo and was very stressed. The entire process was simple. I will definitely use Vrbo and this property again. The only suggestions I can make are cleaner towels. The towels were dingy and many stained from overuse. Beach chairs and shade would have been amazing.

We sincerely appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. It's wonderful to know that you had a great trip! There are third party vendors in the area that provide beach chair and umbrella rentals that we share in the Happy Stays App. Thank you for choosing Sands of Alabama, and we can't wait to host you again.
When we arrived there were beer cans all over the grounds that my son picked up before our grandchildren arrived. The internet did not work for two days and the service provider had to come replace wiring that he said appeared to have been struck by lightning, our bedroom window leaked both days when we had the rainstorms enough we had to mop the floor and dry the blinds. The air conditioner never got below 77 degrees. The proximity to the beach and restaurants was perfect. The interior of the house was clean and the kitchen was adequately equipped. Management was quick to respond to my text.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're truly sorry to hear about the issues you experienced during your stay, especially the debris on the grounds, the internet outage, and the leak from the window. These are certainly not the standards we aim to uphold, and we appreciate you bringing them to our attention.
That said, we’re glad to hear the home’s interior met your expectations, the kitchen was well-equipped, and you enjoyed the convenient location near the beach and restaurants. We’re also happy our team was able to respond to your concerns quickly.
Your input helps us improve, and we
We enjoyed our stay and thought the house was very nice. We noticed right away there was not a single wine glass or large mixing bowl for us to mix a salad for 11 ladies, so I contacted the office and they ordered some through Walmart to have them delivered, which they did. With such a huge kitchen, you would have thought it would have several mixing/salad bowls. There were no kitchen trash bags to get us started. Every vrbo I’ve stayed in at least has a couple to start with. Thank goodness the weather was wonderful so we could all eat outside. There were not enough chairs around the kitchen table and the counter to seat all 11 of us. The only door would not shut without it locking and entering a 8 digit code, which is annoying when there are multiple people coming and going. I wish they had supplied beach towels and beach chairs. It would be helpful to have a book with instructions on how to work the thermostat and tv etc instead of having to go back to the email for instructions. The communication with the company was very prompt and they tried to accommodate us with the wine glasses (they sent 8 and we had 11 people) and one bowl, which was nice. The dryer set off the smoke alarm so we turned it off. We did have a wonderful time.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. We’re glad to hear that you and your group had a wonderful time overall and enjoyed the house and beautiful weather!
We also appreciate your detailed feedback—it’s incredibly helpful as we work to improve every guest’s stay. We’re happy our team was able to respond promptly and get wine glasses and a bowl delivered for your group, though we understand 8 glasses and one bowl weren’t quite enough for your needs. We’ll make sure to reevaluate kitchen inventory to better align with the size of the home and the larger groups it accommodates.
Your comments about the lack of trash bags, beach towels/chairs, and seating are well taken, and we will look into providing a more complete starter supply and adjusting the amenities accordingly. The feedback about the door lock and the need for a simple in-house guidebook for TV and thermostat instructions is also great insight—we’ll take all in consideration for future guests.
We apologize for the inconvenience with the dryer setting off the smoke alarm—that definitely isn’t typical, and we’ll have our maintenance team inspect it to ensure everything is in proper working order.
Thank you again for your helpful suggestions and kind words about our communication.

We did a weekend stay at Gulfshores, and stayed at this beautiful property. The house was absolutely gorgeous, clean, spacious, up to date decor and layout. There was a beautiful view of the beach from the patio and rooms, with easy access to the beach. Beds at first felt a little hard but they were very comfortable.
Only cons to this place was upon entrance, we couldn't get the door to unlock. I felt it was jammed, but the owner was quick to respond and after a little pushing, it unlocked. He even sent a maintenance person the same day.
Just a few things we would have liked more (not a deal breaker) but It would have been nice if every room had a television and long length mirror (or at least somewhere in the open). It was a little hassle sharing the living room tv with different age groups. There were tvs in some rooms, but some didn't have one.. Again not a deal breaker
Although there was enough parking space, one side was big enough for SUV's the other side only a smaller car could fit.
Also not sure if we overlooked this, we didn't see an iron and ironing board. That would have been nice
But overall, I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend to others. The property manager was responsive from start to finish. Even was nice enough to answer questions before our stay. Thanks for such a great stay!

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your weekend stay and that the house, view, and beach access met your expectations. It’s great to know the beds turned out to be comfortable and that you found the decor and layout up to date and spacious.
We truly appreciate your patience regarding the door issue and are glad we were able to resolve it quickly. Your feedback on the TVs, mirrors, and ironing board is very helpful, and we’ll certainly take it into consideration as we continue to improve the experience for our guests. We're also looking into optimizing parking arrangements to make things as convenient as possible for all vehicle sizes.
It means a lot to hear that you would stay with us again and recommend the property to others. We enjoyed hosting you and hope to welcome you back in the future!
