I really liked the area and how remote it felt. House was steps from the beach which allowed dogs. Huge bonus. Manager was was super helpful, neighborhood was quiet and friendly.
We really enjoyed our time in Gulf Shores. The house is far from the hustle and bustle making it easy to rest, recharge, and connect as a family. We absolutely loved the pool and how secluded it felt. The beach was an easy walk; it too felt peaceful and quiet.
The cherry on top was Daniel, he made sure we had everything we needed, checked on us regularly, and was lightning fast to help!
The home was very nice. Especially the private pool. The beach was in wAlking distance and beautiful. Only bad part of our trip was the weather and canât control that.
The home is modern cozy with an open and âtouch of rustic feel.â. We were comfortable from the start. The kitchen was well stocked and beds comfie. It was my husband and our 19 year old boys. We had plenty of room and absolutely loved the pool as well as the quick walk to the beach. The communication with our host was excellent and welcoming. We would absolutely stay again!
The property and house do offer seclusion with beach access only two blocks away. The heated pool is a definite bonus but the per day cost to heat the pool is overpriced and not worth it. The house is roomy and open and the screened back porch is great. I realize our stay was during off-season but the house is in need
Wonderful property that the pictures don't do justice.
Quiet and secluded property 500 yards from the beach.
Great pool and very comfortable accommodations.
Kitchen fully stocked, commercial hot water heater, Weber gas grill, frankly more amenities than most beach rentals.
Enjoy the peaceful surroundings that is just not common for beach homes
This property was exactly how it was describedâŠand quite honestly even better. Theyâve thought of everything. We had our toddler with us, and they even had a built in gate for the stairwell, a pack and play, pool and beach toys, wagons, I mean you think of itâŠthey had it. The pool is just amazing. We had the best time and will definitely be back. Thank you for an amazing trip!
The house is gorgeous and had everything we needed. Unfortunately the weather didnât cooperate but we had a great time anyway. Daniel was quick to respond to any questions or needs.
We stayed with our adult sons and we all enjoyed the comfortable house with the 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The house was neat and clean, we especially enjoyed the screened in deck. The pool and pool area were beautiful and we spent a lot of time lounging by the pool. The private beach was gorgeous and a short walk away. The beach was not crowded at all and we were fortunate to have great weather for our stay. Daniel was especially helpful and quick to reply to any questions we had.
We booked this trip months in advance and couldnât wait to arrive. House was great, spacious for a family of 4. The pool was a hit and it felt like an oasis. The short walk to the beach was something I looked forward to everyday. The beach was quiet and felt private. Neighbors were residents and super friendly. Sassy Pizza was delicious and the Sassy Market and Dollar General were close by for groceries and supplies. Canât wait to come back to the Fort Morgan area again.
This is the 6th or 7th time we have rented Sea Oaks for a fall vacation. Great location only a couple of blocks from the beach (recommend renting a golf cart for beach gear transport) with pool and great screen porch for non-beach days. Owner has always communicated promptly to any questions and we have always found the house to be clean and ready upon arrival. Pet friendly is a plus as our dogs also love the annual trip. So glad to return this year after the hurricane damage in 2020. Looking forward to 2022!
Hi George, thank you for coming back to stay with us! We greatly appreciate that and we are so happy that you had a wonderful trip! Looking forward to hosting you again!
As my wife and I are very busy people in our respective jobs, we needed separation to clear the he noise. This nugget of a find was exactly what we needed. The seclusion was there with the size of the property. The heated pool gives you the option to stay on site and still relax in the water. The ocean is just a small walk and the view on the beach is the best we've seen in 3 visits to the area. Daniel is like a best friend, being there for you for anything. 5 star service.
Property was nice. The property manager was the best! Pool heater wasnât working and he did the best he could to make sure all was well. The mattresses need to be updated, grill was in bad shape. There is some electrical issue that makes lights on the west side flicker. But a nice little place.
We were able to arrive three hours earlier!
As soon as we got there my kiddos jumped straight into pool! They loved it!! It was fun for the whole family! The screened in back porch was so wonderful, we set there for hours. The beach was only two blocks away and there was a wagon we could put all of our beach supplies in! We loved how secluded it was. If you want a place away from all the noise this is the place! Anything we needed or any questions we had our host was on top of it! Our favorite part was just being able to relax and that our kiddos had a large pool to swim in. We will be back!!!
Nice house with lots of space, 2 families of 5 very comfortable. The pool was very nice and we enjoyed it very much. The house could have been cleaner. There was a good amount of black dog hair throughout the house. The gas grill did not work, we replaced the empty propane tank and did speak to the owner about it not lighting. The downstairs directv box did not work which was an inconvenience for kids. Overall good place.
Unfortunately the guest who left the day of this guests arrival had multiple large, long haired dogs and did not clean up after them at all. We put in extra time to get it cleaned up but we must have missed some. Apologies for that. I am now going to put a weight limit on dogs that can stay in the house and will need to be more strict about long haired breeds and the number of dogs allowed.
Also, when I spoke to the guest about the issue with the grill I told her it was a brand new grill and that the issue was likely with the AA battery in the igniter. I suggested to change the. battery to see if that would fix the issue and offered to have someone go down to take a look at it. She did not respond. Once she checked out I had the battery changed (Super simple to do) and it resolved the issue. Unfortunately she never mentioned the TV downstairs being an issue.
I am very responsive and do my best to take care of things right away when I am told of issues. I cannot take care of issues that I am not aware of.
I aim to provide all guests a well appointed and relaxing environment to enjoy and unwind.
Thanks for your consideration.
Fantastic - loved the screened in porch on upper level.
The house was put together so beautifully! There are 3 bedrooms with there own bathroom. The kitchen is ready for you to cook, it has all the pots and pans, ect. Three different kinds of coffee pots, coffee drinkers are set, just bring your coffee you like. There were items you could take to the beach if you wanted or just go out to the pool! Thank goodness we asked for it to be heated. Our host made contact with me several times and assured us he was down the road if we needed anything. The walk to the beach wasn't bad or too far (2blocks). Thankful for the beautiful sunny days! This is an EXCELLENT place to stay with a wonderful host!! There are a LOT of light switches though!!
The grounds are gorgeous. Very rarely can you be two blocks from the beach and in a pine forest. The back yard is lovely and the kids enjoyed watching the rabbits run around. The pool is very pretty and the pool area made for nice lounging and evening picnics.
The house was very clean and decorated very nicely. It was more than enough room for the 4 of us. The kitchen had all the utensils we needed. We appreciated there was dish washing and dishwasher detergent (and laundry too but we had brought our own).
The only suggestion is to get new pillows for the master bed. They weren't comfy, but that was minor.
Our favorite place was the screened porch. The weather was great and it is well shaded, so it was nice to sit out there any time of the day. We would definitely go back!
Iâm so glad you enjoyed your stay! I have ordered new pillows for the master bed. Seems that they may have been switched as they were supposed to be new. The ones that are there will be replaced within a few days. Hope to welcome you back again soon.

Perfect for a week away!
We were drawn to this rental because of the design and it was even better in person. All of the furnishings and fixtures were wonderful. Loved the porch, but it was so warm we didn't use it as much as we would earlier or later in the year. Would love to come back in the Spring to experience it in cooler weather. The air wasn't working as well as I think it could, but the ceiling fans were a great help and it wasn't enough of an issue to warrant a call to the property manager. The kitchen was perfectly equipped and met all our needs! The real suggestion I would have is to maybe provide an umbrella or sun shade around the pool area. The photo shows umbrellas, but the pool had been updated and renovated. Loved the wood fencing and the furniture, just wanted a bit of shade. Would definitely recommend it and next time, we may bring our dog!
I'm glad to hear that the design and feel of the house and property were beyond your expectations.
We have tried in the past to leave umbrellas at the pool but unfortunately they never lasted past a week or 2. They need to be closed when not in use due to the windy conditions that are often present at the beach otherwise they either break due to the wind or they blow out of the stand and are broken on impact. We may try to offer some option of using the umbrellas with an additional security deposit in the future. Thanks for the feedback.
