Heated pool

Everything was great except have to spend $50 A day to have the pool heated and only heating it to 88 degrees didn’t help us at all we could not go in the pool so it scampered our experience and I wasted &209 on a heated pool. Calling y’all 8 or 9 times didn’t help the situation.

Perfect College Reunion Location

We loved our stay at Morning Tide! The home is every bit as beautiful as the pictures. The home is designed o meet every traverl’s need. The accomodations are spacious, comfortable, close enough to what we needed but also very private. We had immediate response to all our questions from Susan and Geoff at Gulf Shores vacation rental. They also provided us with a contact for catering that proved to be delicious. It was also very convenient to have the elevator for hauling the groceries and luggage up the stairs. We look forward to returning for our next reunion. Just a note, use caution on the stairs in the home as the bottom step blends so well with the floor it is easily missed.

The house is perfect for 8 couples, so much room to spread out or all be together in one area! Lots of bedroom options but wonderful that all face the beach. Any questions/concerns we had while there were taken care of promptly by GSVR. For example, we were technically challenged with the TV's , their tech guy came by immediately and got us all on the right track. Beautiful house, beautiful location!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We all "loved" the Morning Tide experience! The big house fit our family well. All the bedrooms were used and we made good use of the kitchen and dining room. We only went out to eat once. Thanks for providing grills. There was plenty of space for playing games, reading on the little patios, visiting, etc. Having plenty of bathrooms was also a plus. We enjoyed being right on the beach. The heated pool was used quite a bit due to the cool weather, so that was a nice option to have. Our family, including our grandkids, said this was the highlight of the year, and would like to come back sometime!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a great time with all of our family. All were pleased with the house and amenities. The weather cooperated and every day was a great day outdoors. However, a screw came loose on the pool door and made it hard to close. We reported it and someone was going to check it out when they brought a new stove. But no one came with a stove or looked at the door. Then the piece came off the door. On our last night, we were unable to lock the door. One place where we stayed in the past had someone drop by every day or so to see if anything was needed. That was very helpful. But overall, a wonderful time!
