The whole place was very nice. The negative was that the shower had a slight smell when you get in, but could just have been the layout of the shower itself. Overall, wonderful stay!

February

We stayed the month of Feb in a Good Winds rental home. This is our third year going down to Gulf Shores and staying in the same rental home. The house was very clean and well stocked, good location right across from the beach/Gulf. Great area. We had a minor problem with our cable on TV...contacted the office, they said they would write a work order and someone came out within a couple hrs to fix our issue, we appreciated their help and how prompt they were! We plan on returning next year. Good Winds is the best!

Thank you, Linda! We’re thrilled to hear that Good Winds continues to be your go-to spot in Gulf Shores. It means a lot to us that you found the house clean, well-stocked, and perfectly located. We’re glad we could quickly resolve the minor cable issue for you, and we appreciate your understanding. We look forward to welcoming you back next year for another wonderful stay!

Great Stay!

Overall, we had a fantastic stay! The property was close to the beach and the location was close to town and things to do. The house was clean and check in and out process was easy. The only thing (and this is totally minor and just personal preference) was if the sheets were a bit thicker. We would definitely stay here again!

Fab February!

The four of us could not have been happier! The location was great, we had all the cookware and utensils we needed for meal prep, everything was clean and decor was perfect — nice, but not fussy. We enjoyed every minute of our stay.

Family beach retreat

Overall, we had a fabulous 3 days. The weather cooperated during our stay and the house was very comfortable for how many people we had-10 in all. The TV in the living area was pixelated and hard to watch but we didn’t spend a lot of time inside anyways.
