Great winter getaway
The property is as advertised, and is within walking distance of several good restaurants and a beautiful beach. I don't want to sound too picky, but the beds were not very comfortable However, for the total package, it the deserves a 4.

Place was OK, Host was not
When we entered the house there was an awful grinding noise coming from the fridge. Since we checked in late, we messaged the host and asked them to look into it the next day. Later the next day, we received a message from the host that said they can't fix it during our stay, but the fridge is cooling. Now you should know that the fridge is adjacent to the main living area so this noise made using the living area unbearable. I messaged the host that the news was disappointing & asked if we could get some sort of compensation for the noise and inconvenience. We NEVER heard back from the host again on this topic - even after two more attempts. With poor communications skills like this, the host does NOT deserve Premier Host status..

Perfect space close to the beach
I loved the location and the house. Living room and kitchen is a little small, but perfect for a small amount of people. Only complaint is that the tv in the living room kept malfunctioning, and I had to restart it several times.

Overall property was very nice for the price. The dining area is too small for 4 people. Short walk to the beach. We would definitely stay there again if we go back to Gulf Shores. Only negative, trash trucks were noisy bright and early every morning.

Very Disappointing
Based on the listing and reviews we thought the cottage would be a great place to stay for the last 2 nights of our trip. We were under the impression the area was nice. The cottage wasn’t very clean, the yard was overgrown. and it was directly across the street from trash dumpsters. We weren’t able to sit outside and enjoy ourselves like we normally would. We altered our plans to only stay at the cottage to sleep. We made the best of it, but we’re very disappointed.
