This stay was a breath of fresh air. Prior to our arrival, Jennifer was very communicative, and made sure we were well-informed on expectations and check-in processes. The room itself was fantastic, with a great view of the Gulf of Mexico, and private access to a beautiful beach. The unit was outfitted with everything to make our stay perfect! It was a short walk from the unit to the local bar/eatery Pirate's Pizza and Wings that had delicious pizza and made the perfect cocktails. Overall, I highly recommend staying here; I DEFINITELY will be back!

Perfect Stay!
The rental was clean and was very comfortable. We liked that it was quiet and peaceful. We did lots of walking on the beach which was easy to get to as there was a walkway from our place. The pool was so nice and warm for me, but they also had a cooler temp pool right next to it for those who want it a bit colder. We rented E bikes and toured the entire island. We also had some good meals within walking distance. It was a great vacation!
This is a great place to stay. It is second floor so you can see the ocean. It was clean and quiet. There are retirees that live there so they want you to be quiet. The only thing I would recommend is a chair in the living room. The couch is the only place to sit. We ended up bringing an outside chair in while we were there.
We had a wonderful stay! The condo was lovely and very comfortable.The kitchen was well equipped.We rested and played. We would definitely stay here again!!
Overall a very nice condo and just the right size for a couple. It is more of a hike to the shoreline than I expected, though. Communication with our host was great and with her blessing, we were able to check in a little early. A good but too short stay.

Perfect Place for a Beautiful Beach Stay
This condo was the perfect size for my small family! It had everything we needed along with a great view of the beach and access. I loved the decor and how clean it was! The host was very helpful and recommended things right away to make our visit even better. Would definitely stay here again.
Great location. The room was clean, classy, and very comfortable. The facility was well-kept and conveniently close to everything. Beach access was just steps outside the door, which made the stay even better. The owner/operator was easy to work with, and everything was handled smoothly—our expectations were met and even exceeded.
This place was beautiful and immaculately clean. Loved how peaceful and quiet it was. The amenities were ample as far as cooking was concerned and the apartment was very well maintained. We hope to come back next summer for a longer amount of time!
We wrapped up our stay at Turtles Nest, West today and have really enjoyed our time in Alabama! Jennifer is a great host, and this unit is laid out and decorated perfectly for an ocean get away.
Property is great for a weekend or a week. Everything you need. Awesome host, walk to restaurants and the Mardi Gras Parade.

Beautiful Condo
The condo was beautiful. The soothing beachy color scheme was apparent throughout the condo. The view from the balcony which we thoroughly enjoyed with coffee in the mornings. The Inn itself is well maintained including the boardwalk from the Inn to the Beach. The overall feeling to the condo and to the Inn is quiet, family friendly and very peaceful which is what my husband and I were looking for. Great place. We will go back.
This condo is adoravle, clean, cozy, and convenient. Works great for a family with kids. The host is awesome, very easy to communicate with, and responds to messages very quickly. This is a great becah if you like fishing. And from what i saw this seems to be a go to spot for families. Very calm and relaxing vibe.
Such a wonderful condo and location! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Jennifer gave us great information on the facility and area. We will definitely use her rental group again.
