Recent Gulf Coast guest reviews

This property is absolutely amazing!! Everything was immaculate when we arrived. Getting in the gate and the house was simple. The landscaping is amazing. The house is less than 1/4 mile from the southernmost point, and a block from Duval St, but once inside the gate, the outside world disappears. It’s magical. There’s little to no noise from the hustle and bustle outside. Parking on Louisa St. is limited, but was not a problem. We parked when we arrived and walked everywhere. Highly recommend this property. We will definitely be back!

The home was absolutely amazing. It was everything we were hoping to stay in and more. We were doing a large family vacation and wanted a space for everyone as well as being right on the beach. This home exceeded the expectations of this trip! The room setup supported our families and the different living room spaces provided an option for the kids to go somewhere and the adults to talk without background noise. Access to the beach was great. There is a small dune to climb but nothing crazy. The views were spectacular! Saw dolphin fins in the water every morning from the balcony. The location is far enough from the main areas of activity but not too far. Just a few minutes drive to get to the restaurants and shops. Beach was never crowded. I highly recommend this place! In the future when we go back to Gulf Shores, I will book this place again!
