Booked the Idlehour for a quick getaway and LOVED IT! Quiet location, just a quick drive to downtown Fairhope, one of our favorite things was the outside area with the Edison lights. Host was very responsive…overall great experience!

Perfect place to enjoy all the things along the Alabama coast!!! The house was super clean and a great place to unwind and relax on our anniversary weekend. Its convenient to all the great shops and restaurants Fairhope has to offer and just a short drive for a day at the beach.

Great experience at Idelhour. Snug little cottage located in beautiful and quiet area. Highly recommend going to see the sunset at nearby Mullet Beach. Host was a pleasure to work with and quick to respond to any question.

Cozy and Comfortable

It is a perfect location! It’s in a lovely neighborhood with a perfect path to go on a morning walk. The living area greets you with beautiful and thoughtful decor, like an amazing selection of books to browse while you stay there. We also appreciated the Nespresso and awesome bath products. It is as pictured and described. Will book again.
