Stylish Gulf Shores Getaway w/ Dock Access!

Reviews

• Good for Price- Would stay again

  4/5

  We enjoyed our stay, the booking was easy, it was a great place for the price. Would stay again.

  Pros:

  -Pool (a little small but we always had it to ourselves so it was fine) appeared to be checked daily by a guy in a truck that would come test the water

  -Location - Backed up to lagoon, was about a 3-5 min walk to beach, or paid parking right across the street from beach entrance. Maybe a 5 min drive to the main intersection by the Hangout, gift shops, etc.

  -Good amount of space inside and out

  -Nice outside areas (Decks, Dock, or ground level with bench swing)

  -Plenty of towels in bathrooms

  -Was only slightly more than most 2bed 2bath rentals we were looking for that were comparable

  -Host provided all instructions and information we needed to check in and out.

  -The neighbors in the next unit were very nice, didn't experience anything bad with the permanent residents as one review mentioned.

  -Felt pretty clean upon arrival, which I feel isn't always the case in my experiences with other rentals.

  The not as good, but not bad: (All of these are very minor, but were brought up among our group at one point)

  -Instructions on taking trash out, but didn't specify to where. A permanent resident neighbor helped us.

  -The place could use a little updating or maintenance- nothing major, but if I was to be very picky there would be a few things I'd suggest (Overall in good shape, just typical things that are mainly cosmetic and usually not high priority)

  -Not sure about other rooms, but ours came with a king bed and only 2 flat pillows. I could've messaged host to see if there were more, but a very minor inconvenience not worth the hassle, I still slept fine, but wouldn't have minded more pillows.

  -I'd say with these being the biggest "cons", we did fine and had a great stay, just like to try to leave some constructive feedback.

  Overall, we were all very happy with the place. This isn't a standalone house that's $1000 per night, so don't expect that, but it was very good for the reasonable price. We all agreed we would stay there again, which isn't always the case with our group of friends.

  Manager's Response:

  From the owner: "Thank you for all the constructive feedback. These are the kind of things we need to know about because our cleaning crew is mainly there to turn the place around and not conduct maintenance or inspections. We’ll address as many of these issues as possible during this busy summer season."

• Top notch

• Nice Place to Stay!

  5/5

  This property was such a nice place to stay. It honestly exceeded our expectations! I would recommend this place to anyone. The property manager, Tracy, was phenomenal and very helpful at all times. I would give it a 100/10, if that were an option!

• Short but sweet

  3/5

  Being with my family was great. Had a couple of issues with the live-in resident in #4 even though every time we talked to her she would tell us it was fine, even gave my family pizza but complained. Trash was everywhere on that side but i said nothing because i just wanted to be with my family who i had not seen in almost 5 years. It put a damper on things but we still had fun. The property manager was amazing. The property could use a remodel, all of the furniture and carpet was stained but again we had fun and appreciate the accommodations. We would rent again

  Hi Daphne, thank you for your review and for staying with us. After reading your feedback, the homeowner wanted to share the following:
  - We have full-time residents at the complex, and we strive to maintain a respectful environment for everyone. We addressed the situation with the neighbor and appreciated your understanding.
  - We are continually working on small improvements and replacements of furniture and fixtures. While a complete remodel is not feasible at this time, we are planning to replace the carpets with laminate flooring in the near future.
  Once again, we appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve the guest experience.
