Pool & Dock Access: Gulf Shores Family Getaway!

Dirty, managed poorly.

The only thing good I can say is the house is spacious and has elevator. Otherwise, it is extremely dirty. We arrived to dirty beds, dirty towel, filth layered floors, and unclean pool. Several window cranks were broken and seals were disgusting. There was a broken window and glass in the room. No directions on where trash cans were or how to operate anything. The listing says there is a dock for use but we were kicked off by a neighbor because it’s was someone else’s. There is no additional supplies, so be prepared with your own. Even the cleaning supplies like mop or broom were layered in flith and unusable. It almost seemed as someone might have been staying there consistently or wasn’t cleaned from a party that happened. When reviewing the listing it seems the issues that have been brought up have never been fixed and they continue to rent it out. We left early due to this as we had young children and between the filth and safety issues we could not enjoy our stay. We were highly disappointed after driving 12hours. The rental company did help a bit by communicating with the owner to get us a partial refund however we didn’t get much of an apology or anything for our troubles. I promise you we left this house cleaner than we found it.

Highly recommend!!

We just finished a 2 week stay and have zero complaints! This is not your typical rental! It is furnished just like a turnkey home and feels like home! Very spacious, lots of wrap around deck/porches, great appliances, and super clean and well taken care of. The owner was absolutely wonderful to work with and was there daily to maintain the pool and property. There is tons of outdoor and indoor space, lots of seating and well stocked with everything you would need for you stay. It is very pet friendly and very secure for your pets to roam freely on decks and outdoor space. The elevator in the home was a huge bonus! Never had an issue with it and made groceries and laundry super convenient without going up tons of steps. Air conditioner was top notch on every floor and every room! We will definitely be renting this listing again and after 15 days there we have no complaints!! We highly recommend this listing! Very quiet and safe neighborhood and very close to everything!

We loved the house. Perfect for a large group

So wonderful. We loved everything about the house but will caution folks that plan to cook....bring a non stick pan. Adults,kids and fur babies all had a great time. Already booked for the same week next year

A lot of stress

I paid a lot of money for this house to spend 1 weekend and I couldn't even spend 24 hours in it. It was my first vacation in Alabama with family from Louisiana and South Carolina and because I was preparing a family reunion for my birthday, some gentlemen arrived and entered the house without prior notice. They even scared us and told us to vacate the house in half an hour because There were many people and no matter how much we explained that they were just visitors, they didn't give us a chance and we had nowhere to go in that state where we didn't have a family, it was inhumane because you had very young children and everyone was scared, it even took us to the police and it was stressful, They were watching us all the time because they live almost in front of the house and pay too much attention to the tenants. I will never return to Alabama!! Keep my money, people like you don't do well in the end!
