The host very accommodating to our needs and reply’s were very fast, some within a few minutes. The home was immaculate and perfect for our needs. The beds are more comfortable than luxury Hotel beds! The home was fully stocked with kitchen all appliances, cleaning supplies, paper towels and even laundry soap to wash clothes. OHHH… and the kitchen has a garbage disposal too! Bathrooms had an ample supply of towels and also toiletries ( I forgot my Shampoo and Conditioner! ) even a hair dryer. It’s was pretty much like staying in a 5 star hotel. We just needed our clothes and bodies plus food!! Location was perfect, right close to the beach. Trash service is twice a week too! This is a must stay home. We plan to return in a couple of months and we will book again for this home.

Orcas Beach House is a clean and well designed property that my family of 6 (4 teenagers) stayed at. You can see that the owners really care about the guest experience, and this is shown through quality bath products, bikes and beach toys, and towels by the door.The shared pool/spa was not too busy, and it was heated well, so it was very enjoyable. The location of this property is also good, as it is a short walk to the beach, and stores/restaurants are a short drive away.This property worked for us, but with our kids being young adults, I would choose a larger property next time around. Overall, this was a nice property to stay at!

Family & Friends Thanksgiving

My wife and I have been coming to Orange Beach for Thanksgiving for years. We decided to stay in Gulf Shores this year. Orcas Beach House was the perfect place for our family, friends and dog. The beach access is close. The home is conveniently located to most everything. Plenty of room to park multiple vehicles. Michael was an exceptional host and his communication was excellent. We had a great time.
