We loved the fact that the home was dog friendly and had a fenced yard for them to go outside and enjoy themselves without us having to stay with them on a leash. Also, the house was very well appointed and had quality appliances, cooking utensils, etc.

The property was exactly as it was listed. The area is quiet and peaceful. Robin has extras for everyone, pets included. I would definitely stay here again.

Thank you Ashley for the kind review! We would welcome you back anytime!
We booked here for a volleyball tournament at the event center. It was perfect, about 15 minutes away. I like being able to have a washer/dryer and park and be in my room within seconds. So much better than a hotel and plenty of room for our family of 4. The foldaway bed is actually a full bed. The host Robin was wonderful. I wish we had had more time to explore the area, we would stay here again for sure!

Thank you for your kind review! We’d love to host you next time you are in the Gulf Shores area!
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at the Castaway Tiny Home in Bon Secour. The flowers and welcome basket were a nice surprise when we arrived. The house is decorated in a beach theme and was fun! Our dog enjoyed the fenced in back yard. We would definitely recommend this house to anyone visiting the area.

The property was accurately described and as seen in the photographs. All communications were professional and helpful before and during my stay. The tiny home has all the luxuries of your own home and it's in a nice, quiet location with excellent restaurants and activities nearby for the individual of family.

Thank you for your review, we would love to host you in the future
We came into town for a weekend soccer tournament, and we wanted some place that we could bring our two dogs. This place was perfect! Robin was very communicative, and the check in process was super easy. We loved the personal welcome note, basket of snacks, and fresh flowers!! Such a quaint little home. The fenced back yard was perfect! If we come back into town this will certainly be the place we stay!
We loved our stay here! The house was super clean and quiet. The host, Robin, is amazing. We had an issue getting into the house initially (our door code didn't work), and before I could contact her, she had already remotely unlocked the door to let us in, and called me so we could resolve the problem! There were lots of little touches that made this a great place to stay: fresh flowers on the table, dog treats for our dog, snacks for us, and even extra toiletries in case we forgot something. This house is about 15-20 minutes away from the beach - close to everything, but far enough away where it was super quiet and relaxing. I would definitely stay here again!!
Highly recommend this amazing little home!! It was spotless, had everything we could possibly need! Eric & Robin were very easy to reach for anything we had questions about and so very nice!!! It was easy to check in and out. There was plenty to do close to the home but you are out of the noisy places. They even personalized our stay with a welcome sign for us and our pups along with treats for them. I will definitely be recommending to friends and we will most definitely be going back. Such a beautiful part of the world.
I also forgot my makeup bag and my straightener and they are sending it to me Monday. Such great people to rent from. Check them out!!
