Most of our needs were met by this rental. We could have used a spare blanket or two and some sort of kitchen wrap, plastic or foil. Also I inquired as to what type of coffee maker was provided and was told both kinds. I packed cone and drip filters. Both kinds equals drip and kuerig of which none were provided. This home is second row so instead of hearing the surf you hear the cars. For March that was fine.

I would describe this property as OK to good. It has a lot going for it and the overall experience was good. T\You can see the ocean across the road and there is beach access only 4 minute walk away. Host was nice and responsive. Place was clean and location was excellent. The "just OK" comes just from it being a little worn and some amenities being just...not quite adequate. For instance, there were pans in the kitchen but they were so old the non-stick surface was destroyed and we really didn't want to use them - one had rust on the bottom. There were only like 2 bowls even though there were plenty of other plates, etc., so just things that could be easily fixed for almost no money, so...why not? There were other signs of a place just kind of worn out - rot around the windows, etc. But let me be clear...It was a fine place to stay for the most part. NO big complaints, but just...OK by today's standards.

About the host

A long time ago:

I am a single mom raising 3 children here in beautiful Gulf Shores and my property is completely 100% owner-operated. I strive to provide a clean, comfortable, affordable vacation for all!

7/15/2024
I wrote that description many years ago. Everything is still true, but I have since remarried a wonderful man, Wes, who works in home inspections. He comes in handy to make sure that the property is up to par safety wise.

Wes and I live in town, about 5 miles away. I am a mental health therapist. I work in a psychiatric hospital in Daphne. My oldest child works for Ikes, and provides beach services to all the vacationers. He's the one that sets the chairs out on the beach. I have a beautiful daughter who is up at Auburn, following in my footsteps and getting a psychology degree. And my youngest is now 14 years old and starting the marching band. I am proud of all 3 of them and you may meet them when they come to see their dad, next door...
It is true that my ex-husband lives next-door to your rental unit. It is a duplex . He's a nice guy, his name is Randy. He's a criminal attorney if you get any trouble while you're down here! He knows a lot about fishing too, charter boats and honey holes.

Everyone in my family looks forward to having happy vacationers at our condo.

Why they chose this property

In 2009, I had been vacationing in Gulf Shores for over 20 years. I decided to buy in and relocate for a safer place to raise my kids.
West Beach in Gulf Shores is by far the best spot! Quiet and peaceful, but close to many attractions, and within walking distance to shops and restaurants.
We offer a hurricane refund, cat 2 and up.

What makes this property unique

This is the most popular spot on West Beach for spring break. The best part of the beach, this property is 1 block west of the last convenience store, ice cream, seafood, family friendly bar and grill with live music. Great Gulf view, Big front porch with breakfast table. Outdoor shower. Covered picnic table. Beach across street from home, lagoon/bay behind. Heart of West Beach.
