Perfect Beach Getaway with Plenty of Space!

Our stay at this Gulf Shores rental was fantastic! The biggest highlight was the unbeatable proximity to beach access—just a short walk, and we were on the sand in no time. It made trips back and forth super convenient, especially with kids and beach gear.Inside, the house offered plenty of space, making it perfect for families or groups. The open floor plan allowed everyone to gather comfortably, while the bedrooms provided privacy and relaxation. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the outdoor space was a nice bonus for enjoying the coastal breeze.Overall, this rental is ideal for anyone looking for a spacious, well-located home near the beach. We would absolutely stay here again!

Great house in perfect location!!

We had the best trip!! This house was clean & exactly as pictured. The prop mgr had great communication & the location was PERFECT!! It’s right across the street from the beach, less than 1 mile into town & less than 1 mile to the trails. We took bikes with us so we rode bikes into town, as well as the trails. Totally recommend!
