My partner and I are long distance so finding somewhere for us to relax is sometimes a struggle. This property was so peaceful and everything we couldâve imagined. The host was so helpful and was there if needed. Iâd definitely stay here again it was worth every bit of it.
Even when it rains here, itâs relaxing. Michael and Nicole are wonderful hosts and their property is ideal for those just wanting some peace and quiet, but is also a wonderful base from which to explore the quaintness of Fairhope, the outlet malls of Foley, or the beaches of Gulf Shores. Itâs also within easy reach of Mobile and Pensacola. This is the second time weâve stayed here in six months and weâd love to come back.
This is a very safe and peaceful place to stay. Owners were super nice. Great location and central to all the beaches. Air conditioning worked great and lots of information in guest book for local places to visit.
Everything about the stay was perfect. The owners were incredible to work with and bent over backwards to meet every need, way above what we expected! The house was spotless and the AC kept it nice and cold in the heat of the summer! We will definitely be back!
Countryside Loft was perfect for our needs. We looked for an affordable place that was close to family near Fairhope and found it with this property. The bed was comfortable, as was the other furniture. The location was exceptionally quiet, and we could even see the Milky Way from the yard. Michael was attentive and responsive, making sure the property was up to expectations, and we had everything that we needed. We'll definitely stay again on future trips.
Weâve been staying in the area for 15 years, have tried hotels and condos, but this was by far the best property and location. It is so peaceful, yet minutes from Fairhope. The Loft is spacious and very comfortable. Communication with Michael was excellent, he was very attentive but not intrusive. We suggested adding a cool box and kettle and they were delivered the following morning. Canât wait to come back.
This was the perfect place to unwind. Total peace and quiet. The balcony porch was where I spent all my time. The indoor space was immaculate and had special touches for their guests. I would highly recommend this place and I will definitely come back.
This apartment was perfect for our family vacation (two adults and one child). It is a beautiful property that allows for rest and relaxation while being only a short drive from almost anything you could want to do. Michael was a great host and has a very organized and streamlined checkin process. He has a property binder that gives great recommendations for beautiful beaches and excellent restaurants. The city of Fairhope is absolutely beautiful and the residents are very friendly. We had a great time and can't wait to come back!
I absolutely love this place. Itâs out in a beautiful quiet area that is about 15 min from town. The owner communicates well and gives explicit instructions. Itâs like an apartment at the top of an A frame building. Every detail has been added for a comfortable stay. There are stairs that might be difficult for a mobility impaired person. The bed is comfortable and the living area welcoming. Perfect get away.
We were coming to Orange Beach to visit our son's family, who just started a new business there. We didn't really want to be in the busy beach area so when we found this location it was just perfect. We had never been to the Fairhope area and we loved it. This location was close enough to drive into the town of Fairhope and also not too far from the beach area. Our hosts were absolutely the best. They communicated with us all throughout our stay. The loft was so very nice with lots of little amenities that were well thought out by the owners and above and beyond what we have experienced in the past. They made you feel right at home. I would highly recommend this property and would definitely stay there again in the future.
The host Michael was amazing, we had everything we needed to have a comfortable stay! He knew it was my bday the day I drove up and my husband couldnât make it until the next day so him and his wife left me a bday balloon in the loft and left ice cream in the freezer and made the cutest little sand bottle charm! I hope we can make it back up to Fairhope, cause thatâs where I plan to stay! Absolutely amazing 3 days.. he also left great recommendations of the area.
Great experience. Michael is a great host and provided wonderful recommendations. He caters to his guests. The property is peaceful and quiet. The little town of Fairhope is quaint and charming. We rode our bike every morning and enjoyed breakfast on the balcony while listening to the birds chirping. If you are looking for a quiet getaway with close access to the beaches and wonderful restaurant, Fairhope is a great option.
We enjoyed everything about our stay. The hosts were welcoming and helpful They provided extra amenities for us such snacks, coffee, and toiletries. We enjoyed having them in close proximity to the cabin but they were never intrusive. If the opportunity presents, we will return.
The property was stunning, it was everything described plus some. The home was immaculate and perfect for cozy nights in. Michael had an amazing list of local places to check out which did not disappoint! I will 100% stay here again.
What a wonderful place to stay. It was just as it was portrayed to be. The host left no stone unturned for our stay there. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a beautiful peaceful quiet place to stay. We absolutely loved it. Perfect!
My husband and I were looking for a quiet, peaceful setting in the country for some much needed rest and relaxation away from the office. This property exceeded our expectations. We were able to rest while viewing the property from the lovely porch of the loft. We took walks around the perimeter of the property in the cooler mornings and evenings of our weekend. Songbirds serenaded us and were never interrupted by sounds of traffic or other noises. Michael was a terrific host, offered great suggestions for dining out, and made himself available should we need anything. The loft was clean, cool, and had every amenity that we needed.
I love to host. Its real fun to try and provide a memorable guest experience. My wife Nichole has lived in Fairhope all her life. The road we live on was named after her grandfather. I have lived in Fairhope since the early 80's . It is such a great place to live with southern hospitality everywhere. We have two young kids that we love to spend time with.
I am an experienced VRBO host..who loves what I am doing. Its fun trying to provide the best customer experience possible.
My two goals:To provide an 5 star experience for our guests..I want our guests to feel like they are staying at a professional run establishment. The second is to learn and constantly evolve to provide a better guest experience.
We know the area real well. Anything from beaches, shopping, restaurants, hiking, boating, fishing, site seeing, etc., we can provide recommendations.
During your stay, if you need anything or have any questions, please never feel like you are bothering me. I have done close to 500 short term rental stays and I cannot think of one experience where I felt bothered by a guest...I am pretty much always happy to help.
People that use the daily rental sites like this one expect more; more bang for their buck, a unique setting, more amenities, larger space, expectation of a cleaner place. We have done it with the loft. What drives us is to be better than the other daily rentals out there.
Fairhope has been voted in the top ten small towns so many times and Gulf Shores/Orange Beach has been voted in the best top 10 beaches. Our slogan for the Loft is "Meet me in the Middle" We have the best of both worlds being located almost in the middle of both. You would be staying only 38minutes from the beaches and only 15 minutes from the great dinning and shopping of downtown Fairhope. Good TV to me is important while on vacation. After a long day of having fun, nothing is better than a evening movie. The Loft has a Roku TC and Wi-Fi for your Netflix or Amazon account . Very comfy chase lounger couch.
