Enjoyable vaca

The property had everything we needed but didn't have room to pack, such as beach chairs, sand toys, and nets. So that saved us from having to buy things and having to leave them. The location was perfect. Being right on the beach is also great with kids.

Great location!

The location was perfect and very private, the only downside are that the Wi-Fi would not work the entire trip and the comforters on the beds are so thin it’s like sleeping with just a sheet! But other than those things the place was a wonderful stay and a great getaway!

Great place, poor cleanliness

So when we arrived, it was apparent no one had cleaned. The carpet was gross, there was backed up water full of pasta sauce in the sink in the kitchen. There was urine in the toilet, the floors were covered in sand, and dirt, there was no toilet tissue, trash bags, or cleaning supplies. The pool was complete with a big gob of floating human hair and two dead crabs. The linens were stained and it was obvious they hadnt been washed, only spot cleaned. The deck and stairs have board which are not secure and there were rusty screws sticking out of some boards, which caused my child to sustain an injury. The couches were stained, covered in sand. The property was beautiful, obviously on the beach, there was a coffee pot, stove, dishwasher, fridge, etc. It is a private beach and despite the tourists, felt very safe for me and my family. We still had a good time, but had to make the best of what we had. Overall it had everything we needed and had it not been for how dirty the place was I would consider this same property again. I did contact management who stated they would send housekeeping over. They arrived handed me some toilet tissue, trash bags and left. I ended up buying cleaning supplies and doing my best to clean. Maintenance never showed up to correct the sink that was full of dirty water, or the master bath toilet that wouldnt stop running. But hopefully things can be cleaned and repaired before anyone else stays.

Spring break 2024

We loved the closeness to the beach. Even tho it was spring break the beach wasn’t crowded. Perfect for keeping up with the toddler. Neighbors/community was great. We visited the fort and a couple of the restaurants on fort Morgan. Can’t wait to come back soon.

Beautiful location!

Nice setup, convenient to a couple of good restaurants and dollar general as well as a market. While overall it was a good stay: -the dryer didn’t work well and took excessive time to dry clothes -there was not sufficient dishwasher detergent or toilet paper for a 5 night stay for a 4 bedroom home -pans were not clean and were just tossed into cupboards -the cleaning crew needs to do some more scrubbing -upon arrival 2 smoke detectors were chirping and we had to disconnect the batteries and electrical connections to stop that

Beach trip 2022

The house is nice, but needs work. The cabinet door over the dishwasher came off the hinges. My husband repaired it. The shower door in the master bath would not stay on track and would not completely close. I believe the other shower doors were the same way. The vent in the master bath dripped to the point it kept the bath mat damp. We had 8 people staying and only 6 forks, so the silverware needs to be evaluated. On the plus side the air conditioning is out standing! We had 5 women in the group and I asked for more towels and they were promptly delivered. The kids loved the pool and we loved that we were steps to the beach.

Needs some updating

The best part was the location and the beach—both were great! Beach was not crowded in the least and we were so close to Tacky Jack’s where we ate all our meals. The bedrooms overall were comfy, but the bathrooms are in need of updating. Had an issue with 2 showers not draining. Vacasa had someone out in 2 days to fix, but was a pain to have to share bathrooms when we paid to have our own. Pots and pans were mostly unusable due to heavy stains and wear making it another area in need of some updates (5 forks for a 4 bedroom house is a bit absurd!!) We had our late arriving person bring cookware from home. I never thought to read closely about the home having a DVD player—I assumed. It was quite surprising to not find one, but that is on me for not reading carefully enough. Living room was a bit small, but comfortable. All in all a good vacation, but would not rent this particular home again without some updated pictures. Will use Vacasa again.

Beach

The best thing was the closeness of the surf. The worse was all the stairs for 8 adults 74+.

Fort fun

The bedrooms were spacious with plenty of room. Living area and kitchen were small for the number of guests allowed. We only had 5 of us that were able to make this trip and it was cramped with just 5 adults. My mother in law and myself picked up 8 nails just on our side of the driveway alone which could have damaged our tires and caused a miserable trip home. The house was a bit dirty when we arrived but was easily cleaned up. Other than those minor things we enjoyed the little house on the beach with our family and it was good to be back home on the Gulf..

Service was poor

We arrived on Friday and noticed the top stair on stairs going to first bedrooms was soaking wet. That night when my grandson went to bed, it was broken and was folding in half! We reported both issues on Saturday morning. Saturday night around 9 pm someone came to fix the bed, making a lot of noise; waking the children, to tell us it could not be fixed. Expressed that my grandson would have to sleep on the sofa!! The next day, Sunday we reached out to see if the would replace the bed, they said they would on Monday. Monday came and we told the two gentlemen about the stairs, which was now two stairs wet. Later, around 7:30 we were told we’d have to leave the rental immediately!! Well we were about to eat supper and it was dark to start packing!!! I explained I had two handicapped adults and three toddlers about to go to sleep. To which the said Sorry, but you cannot stay!! After going round and round, packing All our indoor belongings, someone agreed to let us stay the night and would send us rentals to move to. We agreed to move to the Blue Whale even though there was no pool, we just had one more night. We were very satisfied with the Blue Whale! The original rental had other issues too; shower doors would come off the track when you’d try to slide them. Pots without lids and lids without pots. Some of the beds were very uncomfortable!!

Beautiful home with lots of potential. Very poorly cleaned!

The location of this property was beautiful! Away from everything but still around other people. We still had times when nobody was on the beach but us. So that was the best part! The pool was almost fully shaded so made those really hot days not so miserable. Now to the not so good parts. Upon arrival, we weren’t able to get in because they were still cleaning. The “Patio”/pool area had piles and piles of sand on it. The pool was so nasty. It had trash, clumps of hair, piles of sand. Luckily we have a pool and was able to clean the filter out to get the pool running again. We also had to spray the patio down so we wouldn’t track sand. The steps had glass on them and someone stepped on it. The stove was covered in sand and white spots. The bottom shower had brown stuff all in the bottom. Every single dish we got out we had to clean. There were no blankets only sheets. When someone used the 3rd floor shower it leaked from the vent into the 2nd floor king bathroom. I know sand is inevitable but the amount of sand inside this home and around the pool area was ridiculous. This home is beautiful. The decor is beautiful. But it is in desperate need of a deep cleaning. I reached out a total of 5 times and not once has anyone replied to me. I’ve tried calling and kept getting put on hold. I hate leaving this review but nobody ever reached back out.
