Wonderful home. Very clean with super cute decor. Perfect for the three of us. The only negative is the stairs to the unit are really steep!! The deck stairs were much easy to use. Perfect location and short distance to the water!! Would stay there again!!

Hi Angela, thanks for the wonderful review of Sweet Beach Home Alabama!
Very clean, kitchen was stocked great for whatever your needs are. Close to town etc. It was great! Just note if you are handicap the stairs are very steep like bad knees, hips I made it at a snails pace. Living room furniture needs to be updated. Overall it was great. Would stay again.

Hi Channika, thanks for the awesome review of Sweet Beach Home Alabama. Happy belated birthday to your boyfriend on behalf of Harris Vacation Rentals!
This was one of my best experiences with our rental in Gulf Shores. It was the BEST! The beach is just steps away. Management was beyond amazing and we WILL be back!

Hi Sharon, thanks for the wonderful review of Sweet Beach Home Alabama!
The king size bed in the master bedroom is past its life expectancy. There is no box springs and the bed is broke down to the point it needs replaced. Squeaks very bad when you move. The porch outside of the master bedroom could use taller seats to see over the rail and view the ocean. The house was nice besides that. We enjoyed the location and the house.

HI Jason, thanks for the feedback of what would make this a five-star experience next time!
We had a great stay here. Beautiful two-story duplex right on the beach. Two decks overlooking beach and ocean. Many good places to eat and little grocery stores nearby. Shopping close also. Would rent again. .

Hi William, thanks for the wonderful review of Sweet Beach Home Alabama!
This property was absolutely amazing for our large family. The location is so convenient to everything. Literally jut steps from the beach. We were able to watch dolphins every day of our 6 night trip from either the beach right outside to property, or the deck.

Hi Amber, hanks for the lovely review of Sweet Beach Home Alabama!
Great location, good for our dog. The privacy was nice, both in the duplex and the beach. The only downside was the master bed was upstairs and had to share a bathroom with the bunk room. We loved the decks! We would definitely stay there again.
