Girl's Trip

The townhouse was cute & had the little things; like soap, 1 roll of toilet paper & paper towels, to get you started until you could go to the store. The access to the beach was easy & just right there. The owner was great & very very helpful through the whole process. I would definitely recommend to stay here.

Beach access was AMAZING! Very short walk to the beach. I was pleasantly surprised at how close we were to the beach/water. Overall great experience and we will definitely be back! Thank you Ms. Marni!

Great location! Awesome parking!

We really enjoyed our stay. The town house is located within very short walk to the beach. The parking is great. Never have to fight for a spot and this area has many people trying to find parking. It was so nice to pull in and park under the town house. You can walk from the home to close restaurants. It was comfortable home with everything you need. We went on walks down the beach and it was so nice to leave everything behind at the town house knowing it was locked up safe. Bring beach chairs, umbrella and beach towels!!

Great location!

Property manager contacted me initially prior to check in to advise me of leaky roof lill dishwasher issue which we declined to have worked on during our stay since we would not be using it and the roof leak was minimal. I immediately contacted her about washer/dryer closet door down and she responded immediately to confirm the issue was prior to my stay. Great communication. Great location. Great vacation!

Best location out there!!!

My family and I enjoyed this property so much!!!! The location is fantastic!!! For starters- you have your own assigned parking area beneath the townhouse. This parking area also doubled as our pool/beach gear storage (meaning- no sandy mess being inadvertently brought in every time you come inside!!!) You can be at the pool or beach in less than 3 minutes!!!! Amazing!!!! I’ll never stay in a high rise with 30+ min elevator lines again!!! The host(owner) is also wonderful. She gave us so many suggestions on places to visit and eat during our stay! She went above and beyond and I’m so grateful we’ve found our forever rental in Gulf Shores!!!

Unit is very dated, but clean!

Sofa seat cushions sink into the sofa bed when you sit down (very uncomfortable). Need to upgrade furniture, or fix and clean old. TV in the living room has no instructions and it's very hard to find a particular station to watch fave shows! Beds are uncomfortable. Location was good, close to fave spots. Probably won't stay here again.

Disappointing

I'm trying to recall if I've ever left a negative review on VRBO before. Where to start? I bet this place was nice 20 years ago. Poor maintenance has taken it's toll. AC is insufficient. Little to no water pressure. Drier needs constant attention. The shower coming from the beach only worked 25% of the time. The sliding doors were inoperative, so it was difficult to go on the minuscule porch. I used the window to close the door after it fell apart. There's a public beach next door, and a high rise on the other side, so the beach was just slammed. The owner did offer to have someone come fix the sliding door, but I was unwilling to wait on them after they missed the first appointment. Disappointed, to summarize it.

Great location, great owner!

Seeing the picture reminds me of a good place to start this review....that picture is 100% accurate. 2 minute walk to the start of the beach and 5 minute (or less) walk across the beach to exactly where you want to be to set up your beach chairs. This place is a great value for the price. Top features: Location - as described above it's very easy access to the beach Owner - Marni is very responsive which makes the whole process that much easier. Pool - the townhouse complex has it's own pool which is pretty good sized and is a nice change of pace from the beach. We have little one's who can be trusted in the pool with minimal supervision but couldn't be in the ocean so the pool is a good option. Things to be aware of. Obviously, I give it five stars so these aren't issues that take away from the overall experience just a few notes I would want to know ahead of time if I were visiting. internet - was dicey when we were there. Marni told us it was being worked on and we saw the actual workers there on our departure day so we can confirm that. However, if you absolutely must have fast reliable internet you might want to double check on this. staples - with vrbo we are accustomed to there being some staples - (salt, pepper, etc.) all the necessities (plates, glasses, silverware) are definitely there but other than that the cupboards were bare. room for 6 - 2 adults and 4 kids no problem. in my college days, yep room for six. Six adults would be seriously pushing it. We were a family of four and it was perfect for us. Our last beach trip was to Galveston which is only 5 1/2 hours from us. Gulf shores is 10 hours away but I'd say it's definitely worth the extra driving time. It's just a significantly better beach. Also, the best beaches in Galveston are a ways from most services. This townhouse is very conveniently located to a bunch of great restaurants and other services. It's also not overcrowded. So...we highly recommend this rental!

Condo was clean and well equipped. A lot to do with in walking distance. Communication with owner was prompt. Nice pool area. Only negative for some would be accessibility. You park under condo and have to walk upstairs to the unit and bedrooms are up one more floor. Wasn't an issue for us but could be for some.
