It was nice.

We have stayed in this area many times prior and have always enjoyed our stay. The house was nice. Wish it would have had a few more kitchen utensils (frying pans) but other than that we had everything we needed. The walk to the beach was nice. Really could not have asked for anything more. The house was perfect for my family.

THIS IS IT!!!

We stayed for 5 nights at the beautiful Blessings in the Sand home and we could NOT have made a better choice! This home has a remarkably well-stocked kitchen and was very clean upon checkin. It boasts two large covered porches, 4 beds and 3.5 baths. Room for three cars underneath the house and convenient to the main road. It’s one block to the beach which can ne seen from the back porch and only 1/2 block to the pool and tennis court out the front porch. Take your beach towels and have an awesome visit at the nearly empty white sand beach. The only thing in short supply was potholders but otherwise all you need is clothes and food!

Lovely very well stocked house

We had a wonderful time in this house. It is very spacious. We had 8 adults and 2 dogs and did not feel cramped at all. The kitchen was very well stocked with a variety of cookware. We loved that both balconies had a gate to shut so our dogs could be on the deck with us. I wish both doors to the house had a key pad instead of just the front door. Our only issues were that the queen bed in the bunk room needs be replaced. It sinks in the middle of the bed when two people lay down. So you both are rolled to the middle of the bed. Also the shower head in king bedroom with the tub shower did not work so it could only be used for baths. Other than those two things everything was great.

Convenient, Clean and Comfortable

This roomy clean home was perfect for our grandchildren and dogs. It is a short walk to the beach. The outdoor shower has warm water! The property manager was amazing. I received a message one week out letting me know that the house code would be sent to me shortly before check in time. This was huge. A welcome message was sent shortly before our arrival. Questions and concerns were promptly answered and responded to. Great experience and we will return to this property and if it's not available, we will stay with this management group.

We’ll be back!

I highly recommend this property. The house was perfect for my extended family and me. Short walk to the beach and pools. Plenty of great places to eat, close to the house. And a short 25 min drive to Gulf Shores. There is a dollar general and small grocery store at Sassy bass within 5-10 min of the house. The house itself was plenty big for us. There were 7 adults and 3 children. And we had no problem spreading out and enjoying some quiet if we needed. The porches are amazing to sit out on anytime of day. I can’t say enough good things about the place. We had the best time!

Yearly - Large Family Vacation

We had a wonderful time. The house is just a short walk to the beach. The house was clean and had many useful items to use while there to make it feel like home. The property manager was a joy to work with and made our stay as comfortable as possible. We had dogs with us, and the grass was full of stickers though, so that is something to be careful of. All of that being said, we will be revisiting the area!

Just enough space

We had a great time here at Blessings in the Sand. I’m so sad it’s already over. We booked this house back in December and couldn’t wait to get here. The other half of our family stayed in the house across the street on the corner. We couldn’t have done that again if we tried to plan that so that was cool! The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed and more. We really enjoyed the Adirondack chairs on the deck where we drank our cups of coffee every morning. We had no trouble sleeping. The beds were comfortable. The only negative thing I would comment on is probably the living room furniture needs updating. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

This was our second time staying at this property. We love the neighborhood, the pool, and easy access to a private beach. The house is spacious and comes with everything you need! Two decks-one for morning and one for evening, an outdoor shower so you leave allllll the sand under the house, and easy access to some sweet spots in Ft Morgan.

Blessings in the Sand was spacious with a well-equipped kitchen. We enjoyed the neighborhood feel of Heritage Shores. The home was near the pools and was actually a little closer to the beach than it appeared in photos. The front and rear balconies were nice where we could see the bay and the beach. Definitely we would rent this property again. This was our first time staying in the Fort Morgan area.

Awesome location for the beach. Kitchen was nicely stocked. Plenty of room and seating for large groups in the kitchen and living area. The pillows and mattresses need updating. The master bath could have been cleaner. It had some mold. The patio furniture was nice. Cable and WiFi was nice to have also.
