Family Vacay

We really enjoyed our stay at this property! The beach was just a short walk away, and having the pool so close was a great perk. We do wish there was outdoor seating to enjoy the beautiful surroundings even more. Additionally, the dryer took quite a long time to dry our clothing. Overall, we had a wonderful time and appreciate the efforts to make our stay enjoyable. We would consider coming back in the future.

Pleasant Beach Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was a great home away from home for the week. It was a close walk to the beach and even closer to the pool. It was far enough away from the busyness of Gulf Shores that the beach wasn't as crowded. But any restaurant or shopping was only 12 miles away. The 4 bedrooms and bunkroom worked perfectly for our family. We heard from the manager early on in our stay, but didn't run into any problems to need to reach out for anything.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beach Blessings was the perfect house for our crew- two adults and six adults-in-training (ages 17-20). The house had everything we needed for a fun week. The location was great too. Just a short walk to the beach! My advice is book it, you won't regret it!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a large group and for the most part very comfortable. The house was great for us with a short walk to the beach, both pools and tennis courts. We cooked most meals and the kitchen was well equipped for a rental. The oven was not accurate but we just added 25 degrees. I would definitely rent this house again.

stay

This was a very nice place to stay. Needs a few updates but was at a great location and fit most our family's needs. would have loved to BBQ, but the one was a very small grill and couldn't grill enough for the family. Needed more utensil's, (very limited). Lower bedroom had a bed that sounded like it was breaking every time to moved(uncomfortable)

Wonderful Property Management Team

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had 6 adults and 5 kids ranging in ages from 3-19. This was our third summer to rent a house in Morgantown. Beach Blessings did not disappoint. On two different occasions we had to reach out to the property management team, and they responded quickly and took care of any issues. They were absolutely wonderful. Will rent from Coastal View again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall the entire family enjoyed the property (we had 12). Could use a little TLC on maintenance, but definitely wouldn't hinder us from renting here again. The property management team responded quickly to anything we needed. Centrally located between both pools. Beach access was very close. We rented a golf cart for the week from Golf Carts 2 You. It was a nice extra that helped get us to and from the beach. Would 100% recommend this property.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Upon arrival it was beautiful and clean. We had just enough parking for our family of 13. The only down fall was that they only had one set of patio furniture. the upstairs balconies had no furniture nor did the rear balconies. I work at a outdoor furniture store and could change that for them. You need to check out .

Family Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent a wonderful week at Beach Blessings in Morgantown. Morgantown is a wonderful community with its own pools and crosswalks to the beach. Twice a week garbage is taken to the road for you and garbage cans returned.The house was located approximately 2 blocks from the beach and a block from each pool. Very convenient! Had a small grill outside that had seen better days. Within a day I was contacted by our manager and she brought over a beautiful new grill. We really appreciated this!The house itself was perfect for our family. Large kids room upstairs with two sets of twin over full bunk beds. The two bedrooms on the main level are super if you don't want to climb stairs. Appreciate the washer and dryer on the main level!There were small issues with the house but nothing that hindered us from having a great vacation!Highly recommend the Morgantown community!!!
