Family time

We had a fantastic time. Wish we could have stayed longer. We came down to spend the week before school starts back up to relax & unwind before everyone’s schedule gets crazy. Thank you so much for such a beautiful property & great time. Suggestion- maybe keep some board games handy in case of rain. It only rained for about 40 minutes during our trip but everyone was searching for things to do.

Re-connect with old friends.

The weekend was perfect. We sat on the deck, drank wine and coffee while catching up on lost time. There is a nice view of the Gulf from there. We walked to the beach the next day which was a short walk. The beach was not crowded due to the fact that there are no high rises near. Numerous restaurants are very close and we spent one day at Gulf Shores State Park on e-bikes. Great accommodations, location and the entire booking process was super easy.

Perfect home, beautifully decorated and convenient to all things!

50 Shades of Blue was the perfect home for us in Sept 2023. From the initial reservation through the checkout process, we were provided top communication. The home is comfortable and convenient. It was peaceful and comfy and right across the beach! Beautifully decorated, ample parking and walkable to all the sites of Gulf Shores. Within minutes of grocery, ice cream and restaurants. Every amenity: coffee makers, ice makers, great WIFI, TV, amazing front and back porches and even floats and a board for the ocean! To improve on future guests stays, I would recommend blackout curtains in bedrooms. With particular attention to the back right side bedroom which the door had no coverings on...we could not use at all due to the bright lights even at night. Two other suggestions: improve the cookware for guests as the pans are very worn and tired...and hard to clean. Additionally there is a safety issue with the lighting on the stairs at night. Not sure how to rectify this but one light is not enough when going down the numerous stairs.

Just a short distance from the beach

This house was great for my family of four and my mom who also made the trip with us. I was hesitant about staying across the street from the beach at first, but the walk was very doable, even with a toddler and infant. We’d definitely stay again.

Nicely appointed, clean home with a good restaurant and beach access nearby. The AC was broken when we arrived but the management team was fairly efficient in getting it fixed - but most importantly they were kind and understanding and easy to get in touch with.

Great Location for Gulf Shores

Place was perfect for our family of 4. Pool was nice when couldn’t swim in the ocean or during the hot afternoons. Everything worked good in the house and we enjoyed our stay. We would stay in this location again. This was our second trip to Gulf Shores and this location was great. Easy walk to the beach.
