Amazing

The house and locations couldn't be better. Right on the beach, views are incredible, deck furniture is plentiful. There was not a speck of dust in the house, spotless. Beds are comfortable and TVs in every bedroom. Lots of space for everyone to have their own area for work or play. Kitchen is well stocked with utensils, cookware, etc. We found it a little odd that there were no beach towels or beach chairs given that this is a beach house, but there are plenty of places nearby to purchase them. Still... The kitchen has absolutely nothing it, foils, bags, salt & pepper, nothing, so plan on bringing everything and anything you might need. They start you off with one roll of toilet paper per bathroom and a couple of garbage bags, so plan on a shopping trip for staples. Regardless of those few things, we had a wonderful stay and hope to return soon.

Great Family Getaway

Great location and fabulous house. They have all the amenities you’ll need for an awesome beach vacation. We had age ranges from 2-67 and everyone loved this house. The beds were comfortable, house was clean and decorated well, and you can’t beat being right on the beach. The only issue we had was the pool being cold the first 2 days, but the property manager stayed in contact and got the issue resolved.

Perfect Beach House

The listing for this house sold me, but it was even better in person! Clean, spacious & great location. Check in was a breeze and communication with the host was great throughout our stay. The elevator was a nice bonus when it came to unloading luggage. The views were beautiful from all three levels. Every bedroom had its own bathroom. Beds were super comfortable. This house had TWO sets of washers and dryers, an ice maker & tons of extras to make us feel at home. Decor was classy. We were able to bring our pup along which was a bonus. I can’t say enough about how wonderful our stay was. I highly recommend this rental & we hope to visit again during the summer.

Wonderful stay

The age range for family was 70 to 7 months. The size was 11 people. The house was right on beach and looked exactly like the pictures. The elevator came in handy for all the bags and groceries. The house in close location to activities but far enough to enjoy the beach and quietness. The kitchen was fully equipped. Every room had its own bathroom. The pool was warm. The property manager texted faithfully checking on the anything I may need and responded promptly to any questions.

Thanksgiving trip

Our trip started off a little rocky but the staff got everything top notch. The layout and beauty of this house was perfect! The views were exceptional! Our family enjoyed out time together, walking on the beach, swimming in the pool, and the kitchen was perfect for feeding our large family! We are planning our next stay!

Our new favorite beach spot

Our family stay at Somewhere In Sand 2 was one of the best trips our family has ever had to the beach! We loved having so much space! The entire house was very clean and tidy for our arrival. The elevator made unpacking and packing so easy! The proximity to the beach was priceless. Washer and dryer on both levels was superb! Location was also perfect- not far from restaurants and activities for the kiddos! I could go on and on with all the special amenities this place offered! Already planning our trip for next year :)

Overall-Awesome

The property overall was super nice. There a few things I made note of in case we stay here again to better prepare for our stay. There were no hair dryers in any of the bathrooms, the kitchen was well stocked with dishes but not cookware. Only 3 pots and they were small, 2 cooking spoons and one was melted pretty badly, and the quality of the cookware was not made for preparing meals. The only other thing I felt should be better planned is the pool cleaning staff showing up mid day while we were all there. We did have to call maintenance after hours because we were locked out due to low batteries in the main door lock, which also could be avoided by simply putting 2 new batteries a month maybe. However they did respond super quickly. In saying all of that, the house was practically brand new and decorated beautifully. I would stay again but just bring more from home.

Amazing Time!

The place was clean, beautiful, & the perfect size for our group. The pool was larger than we expected! They communicated well & came to maintain the property during our stay without being invasive. The elevator was great & not scary like they often are in small buildings, but it does not go to the 3rd floor. The kitchen was well stocked with tools, pots, & dishes but didn’t have any basics like salt or oil, so just be prepared when getting groceries. The beach access was easy & the showers were perfect. We would love to stay again.

Family vacation

We enjoyed our stay in Gulf Shores. The house was very clean and worked well for 14 people. The kitchen was adequately stocked but could certainly have more for the number of people who can stay there. It would be nice for it to have all the needed supplies for coffee for the first morning—there weren’t any coffee filters and the coffee maker doesn’t work without them. More dish towels needed—unless you want to wash after every meal. The outdoor cooker is dreadful. It had propane but the connection had a leak and we didn’t feel it was safe to use—plus—the grates were caked with gunk. The beach was beautiful and the little pool was a big hit. Overall we were pleased and had a great trip.
