The house was nice and as pictured in the listing. The owner was very cooperative and responded immediately to my texts. There is a nice view of the gulf, but you have to drive every day to get to a beach. Due to my age and medical issues I found all the stairs to be quite challenging., but it is still a nice place to stay. ##### Alonna B.

The house was everything we needed. We were in town on an unexpected trip due to a family emergency and this house met our needs perfectly. It was clean and comfortable, a refuge after long days. If we were in town for a vacation, it's a great location with kayaks, a work out area, and right on the canal. ##### Theresa R.

We booked the property while it was being built with no pictures of the inside. It was beautiful and of course very clean due to the newness. Great house on the water. Plenty of space for multiple families and kids. The kayaks and swim spa were great for the kids to experience. Owners are a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend. Looking forward to staying here again! ##### Allen P. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 6 Jan 2018 #### The home is beautiful, comfortable and spacious for two couples or a family of 4-5! Nikki was a wonderful host, always attentive to us and making sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Watching New Year festivities from the upstairs deck was awesome! The marina had a live band and fireworks - even a ball that dropped! We thoroughly enjoyed the house and the location. It is secluded, yet close to Tarpon Springs where we often went for dinner and for a walk around town. We highly recommend it and will consider returning! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Holly T. 6 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Awesome house! Even better host! We have rented for many years from VRBO for our family. We have a wide range of ages so it's usually difficult to find a house that works. The Mangrove Manor was perfect. The house is immaculately clean, spacious, wonderful amenities. The host was so responsive and answered any questions or concerns that we had before and during our stay. I can not say enough good things about this vacation home or the hosts. It will not disappoint!! ##### Holly T.

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the space, amenities and spectacular views! We have seen many animals in our travels around the world, but the active and abundant wildlife that live in the mangrove ecosystem marveled us every day! We saw a hammerhead shark, manatee, stingrays, dolphins and other beautiful sealife! In addition, my family enjoyed the massive swim spa and fishing off the dock! Finally, we thoroughly enjoyed the sunrise and sunset views (of the canal, mangrove and gulf) from our third story master bedroom! We highly recommend this VRBO—it’s a true piece of paradise and Nikki is an excellent host and communicator—thank you. Nikki! ##### John Michael W. Stayed 7 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 2 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful property! We booked this property for a family reunion, there were eight adults total. The whole house was perfect for our family and gave everyone the privacy they needed, but yet had wonderful gathering spaces to enjoy the beautiful views of the gulf. We enjoyed our coffee in the morning on the upper deck, and had dinners on the living room deck, enjoying the sunsets over the canal. The kayaks and paddle boards were a great addition as we enjoyed the water and the wildlife. Nikki was a great host and very communicative. She responded quickly and the check in process went smoothly. I highly recommend this property as it was very clean and nicely updated. So many amenities including a nice washer and dryer to wash up after a day at the beach. The master suite was my favorite with its private deck, views, and coffee bar and mini fridge. Overall, a great place to stay! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris C. 26 Aug 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great view We had a great time.

They rescued me after another VRBO reservation was cancelled by the owners due to Covid19 and the HOA's decision to cancel all reservations. If it wasn't for their compassion I would not have been able to have my surgery. I highly recommend this property.

I just expected it to be extra clean because of the pandemic. ##### Cassie F. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Timothy P. 8 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Home away from Home Mahogany Snapper, Crevalle Jack, Snook, and Striped Mullet---Just a few species of fish caught off the dock of Casa del Sol or in a provided kayak while dipping a fishing rod near the Gulf. Two dolphins play nearby--a Manatee raises her snout inches from our kayak and blows air before surfacing. We grilled Snapper on the home's six burner BBQ grill and didn't want to leave our comfy confines--if only for a drink after a stroll around the corner visiting the GET HOOKED restaurant and bar. RENT THIS HOME!! Niki was very accommodating. Oh yes---DID I MENTION IT WAS OUR SECOND VISIT HERE? ##### Timothy P.

We thought it was close to the beach. When I looked for property, I typed gulf shores alabama. This property popped up. I thought Hudson was an inlet from the beach. I asked the owner how far away the beach was and the response was 5 minutes away. It was a park with no beach but a small strip of sand ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Jeanne M. 2 Apr 2019 #### Wonderful location Wonderful location on a quiet canal with fantastic birding in the mangroves and canal, and on walks through the neighborhood. The kayaking was great in the canal and the mangroves. We had some issues with the house, but Nikki was very quick to address them. The only con was that the living room furniture was not as comfortable as we would have liked, but we were told that it would be addressed this summer. We had a great time during the two months we rented. Thank you, Nikki and Mike. ##### Jeanne M.

Weather didn’t cooperate but nothing anyone could do about that. Did find a nice dog park that we enjoyed at Anclote Gulf Park. Nikki was extremely attentive. She got back to us right away if we had any questions. Would rent again, ....maybe when it’s a little warmer. ##### Janice R.

We loved the stand up paddle boards and kayaks! We also fished and manage to catch a beautiful sunset! Would definitely stay there again!! ##### Marianne W. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cynthia B., Las Vegas 6 Aug 2018 #### Amazing Views of Nature We, three adults and four children, checked into Casa del Sol vacation home July 2018\. The home was clean with a fully stocked kitchen (basic spices and plenty of utensils - pots, pans, dishes). Additionally, there were plenty of linens for extra bedding and towels, which came in handy during our water adventures. When we weren’t exploring the local attractions, we enjoyed reading books in the hammock swings and nature watching from the three decks - one atop with terrific views of the gulf and natural hammock of trees, another at ground level to view into the natural landscape across the canal, and a floating dock that allows the viewer to almost step into the wildlife estuary surrounding the home. The children enjoyed greeting a family of ducks, including ducklings each morning and delighted in watching the turtles and fish throughout the day as the dock rose and fell with the tides. The adults spent late evenings viewing and listening for wildlife on the rooftop deck which yielded amazing experiences as we heard wild hogs, owls and other predators going about their nightly business. Amazing! We spent a couple of days visiting the local fresh water springs at Three Sisters. The kids thoroughly enjoyed swimming, hiking and riding the trolley. The home is located near restaurants and grocery stores. Within walking distance of the home is a seafood restaurant and an ice cream parlor. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and plan to return as we didn’t have a chance to visit all of the attractions and activities available, yet. If you enjoy kayaking or paddle boarding, the dock is set up to easily put in and take out your gear. The home offers equipment as well if you did not bring your own. ##### Cynthia B.
