We had a Wonderful stay here it was the perfect spot for me and my family! Me and my husband and our 9 kids and we fit perfect!Everything you need is there and the check in and out was was great! Right on the beach this house is exactly what I was looking for a little cottage on the beach that was clean and not too expensive! Canât wait to go back someday!!!
This property is above and beyond what we could have imagined! Short walk straight to the ocean. Less than 100 yards. So private and such respectful neighbors. Breezy all day even in the heat of the day. Beach is very well maintained and no trash in site. The house was just like we moved straight inside our house at home... All the amenities are already inside. Just needed food and cleaning supplies. Very clean and great Internet for the kids. The large outdoor deck is a wonderful place for the morning coffee while we watched the dolphins when the sun came up. Lots of other great things to say about our new favorite vacation spot, but we'll add those the next time we stay.
The house was perfect! The kitchen is well equipped, the appliances are nice, loved the drink fridge. The living spaces are bigger than they look in the pictures. The beds were super comfortable. The deck to the beach has been replaced - it goes out a lot farther than in the pictures. Had the beach to ourselves most the time. There is an outdoor shower.
Cons: Check-in was super frustrating. I had to stop into the office in town to show them my ID. We drove by the property a little before 4 and the cleaners were gone so I tried to get a code to get in the front door. Over an hour later someone finally called me back, asked if I had checked into the office. We had 5 kids 10 and under including twin 1 year olds we were trying to entertain. A $200 grocery pick up order sitting in my car. Almost an hour and a half later I got a code to the door.
The washer and dryer are located in an enclosed porch - that door does not have a lock on it.
It is bare bones as far as supplies. Nothing is included for the beach.
Loved the house but probably won't stay here again.
The house is just as advertised. Great beachfront location. Close enough to the convenience store, far enough from big resorts. There are no extras of any kind. It would be nice if there were some beach chairs at least. Our family had a lovely stay.
The location felt like we were on a private beach. Lots of room to play without fighting for a space on the water. The house was clean, comfortable, and well equipped. Appreciated the outdoor shower. Plenty of room for 8 adults in the house. We had a wonderful time. The 22 inch Weber kettle grill worked out great for meals at home. Thank you for sharing this lovely piece of paradise with us.
Pros: steps away from the beautiful beach. A little closer to Beach House resort than we like but was still private. Beds were comfortable, kitchen had all the necessities and the showers had great water pressure. House was decorated nice and furniture was comfortable.
Cons: the house was surface nice for pictures. It appears the house had some serious water damage during a hurricane or tropical storm that didnât get fixed. All the floors need replaced. Some areas were spongy others were bowed up. Definitely could be a tripping hazards. Popcorn ceiling coming down in family room. Major cracks in walls. Light in the kitchen looked like it was going to fall off the ceiling. None of the exterior doors to the deck opened easily (required significant pushing to open). The family room door you could actually see outside at the top of it since it didnât close right. The TV in family room did not work. Wasnât a big deal since we spent most our time at the beach. The master bedroom doesnât have its own bath even though it is listed as such. It has a door to the shared hall bath.
All in all we had a great trip, but we were disappointed in the conditions of the home considering the cost we paid to rent it. I doubt we would ever rent again. Owner needs to invest some serious work into the home.
Home for two weeks now, we are still dealing with itchy bites from fleas. My wife is covered in bites. My scalp has too many bites to count.
The rear door to the deck will not close properly, and the flooring is buckled so badly in places the raised edges cause tripping. There are many good things about the property, but these problems spoiled our vacation. The owner MUST make repairs & treat for fleas.
We had a great time at the Cabana Beach House. Super close to the beach, incredible ocean views and a very nice, clean house. The beach in front of the house was very uncrowded and is a MUCH better experience than the other areas of Gulf Shores where the beaches are packed. We will definitely be renting this house again!
Loved the location of this beach house. Itâs was perfect and private. We usually stay on foley /Gulf shores. With everything going , did t want to take a chance of our vacation being cxld. Donât regret booking this house at all. Very well stocked with everything you need as far as dishes and cookware. Had to call fir a small issue and maintenance was out within minutes . Never could get the WiFi to work no biggie for me.
Had a very nice time at this rental. The house could use a little maintenance, and the WiFi was spotty at best-but everything was clean, and all the appliances worked well. Very nice location with private beach frontage.
The house is in a perfect location. It had all the amenities we needed and everything worked! (We've had some where it doesn't all work!) The AC worked really well! The ice maker was a huge plus as well. Game changer for drinks! I would like to see the owners spend some time over the off season and re-paint/ make the small repairs that would really separate this property. Other than that, for our group, great place to call home for a week! For the same sized group, (8 total) we'd go back!
We stayed during a Tropical Storm - Property is ON the Beach
This was a wonderful property for a family, it is ON the beach... makes it a private vacation during this COVID mess - you are quarantined. We stayed during a tropical storm and had no internet and other issues we had to communicate to management but they dispatched the maintenance and let us know how they could help us. It had some inconveniences but it was a tropical storm. Not the property fault.
Great location, comfortable beds. The house needs work. There were several outlets that didn't work. Our balcony doors took some effort to open. Upon arrival the kitchen cooking and serving utensils were very dirty (so much so that we didn't use them). The floor was very dirty. The vacuum provided was filled with old dirt from other people. The internet was not working and when maintenance was called they came out and said "oh that is a Centry Link problem, it will have to wait until Monday". We were leaving on Monday. The fridge didn't get very cold. Over all for a quick stay, the beds are comfortable, the toilets and showers were clean but if you're staying for an extended time you may choose somewhere else for the price you pay.
This house is exactly as described. The rental is directly on the beach in a great neighborhood with a very calm beach. I absolutely recommend this house!
We had a family of 8 stay at this property and there was more than enough room for us all. The view was stunning and the beaches were clean and quiet. We will definitely stay at this location in the near future!
This home was very nice and well equipped. Youngâs Suncoast even called a bit early to let us know we could check-in. Location is perfect with a very uncrowded beach, with restaurants and stores close by. Could use a little better lighting underneath for nighttime, but I got two cheap hang on lights at Walmart that did the trick. Good rental rate for a beachfront house during peak season. Overall, great place and highly recommended.
Enjoyed my stay. The house was in good shape. Had all the amenities you could need. The only negative was only one trash bag, 2 rolls of toilet paper and one roll of paper towel were provided. Seems for what you pay a few more could be provided. The surf fishing was excellent. I caught a 16lb redfish, a nice pompano and catfish. Down the road was a great fresh seafood store. We had crawfish, scallops and king crab. Ate like a king and Queen. The location of the house is a half mile off of the main road which we enjoyed as well. Very private. I would definitely recommend this house for a couple or small family.
Location, location, location couldn't ask for a better one. The beach is right outside the door. Walkway from the house. Great sunrises and sunsets. Even saw dolphins. Owners took prompt care of any needs! Already for next year! Thanks Again!

Amazing views and quiet beach
This house has the perfect beach location! A perfect unobstructed view and itâs only 20 steps from the beach! The beach is uncrowded and beautiful! Itâs only a short drive into town and restaurants. The house itself has a very well equipped kitchen and the furniture is comfortable. We loved the beach decorations, too. Minor cosmetic flaws and worn carpeting, but the view and beach make it worth a visit! We canât wait for our next trip!
I can not say enough good things about this property. You can tell a lot of thought went into the decor, the beds were very comfortable, the kitchen well stocked with everything we needed to cook our Thanksgiving dinner. The view is amazing! We will definitely will be back!
