Surf N Sand Cottage at Purple Parrot Resort!

ReannaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Couldn’t recommend booking at Lisa’s place more. 10/10. Lisa was so friendly and hospitable. She went above and beyond for our family to ensure we were comfortable and well informed of all the resort amenities and entertainment/ dining around the surrounding area. Lisa was very prompt with n answering my questions and she was very accommodating. Everything about our stay was wonderful and we look forward to booking with Lisa again!

The cottages at Thai Win/Serenity

AlexRating, 5 stars5 months ago
An absolutely outstanding location! The cottage is wonderfully secluded, providing a peaceful and quiet atmosphere. Inside, everything was impeccably clean and well-maintained. I must note, the king-size bed in the main bedroom was incredibly comfortable and you need to experience the master bathroom shower! The hot tub was perfect! Spotless and well taken care of. You can unwind in the hot tub while enjoying the sounds birds and nature. Amber exemplifies the perfect host! She was very responsive and courteous, checking in via the AirBNB chat to make sure we had everything we needed. Our entire stay was flawless! We were sad to leave and return home, but we can't wait to book again! Thanks for having us!

Riverview / Top 1% / Golf Cart / HotTub / Fire Pit

ShirleyRating, 5 stars1 day ago
We loved our stay for an all-woman trip to go wedding dress shopping in nearby town and decided to make it a nice weekend get-a-way! We would definitely stay again if we were in the area and we agree the area itself is worth going to for a relaxing get-a-way. The house was absolutely perfect, stunning and perfect for our retreat! Each person LOVED the decor and slept peacefully on the beds - one lady felt she was 'sleeping on a cloud'. Magnolia Springs area was safe to walk around and riding the golf cart and looking at the beautiful architecture was especially nice! 5 Star Stay!

Cozy stay. Very clean and well stocked- right down to beach stuff and bathrobes! We did feel the beach wasn’t really walkable. (With all your stuff)…but it was a super quick and easy drive. She was very quick respond to any messages. We would definitely return to this rental!

Charming Cottage, 2+BR (entire home, self checkin)

LarryRating, 5 stars1 day ago
Beautiful home. Beds were ridiculously comfortable. Slept better than I have in a long time. Quiet neighborhood. There is a train track close by but that didn’t bother any of us. Would definitely stay here again if we’re in the area again.

Modernized 2BR Historic Home w/ King bed

DeniseRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This beautiful little place was just what we needed. We were visiting a relative in assisted living nearby, yet wanted a place to retreat to at the end of the day, close to restaurants and the beaches for our down time. Our host provided everything we needed and more: comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchen, great bathroom, and lots of extras such as nice bathroom toiletries, snacks, Keurig pods, sunglasses and suntan lotion, restaurant suggestions, beach chairs, a hose for rinsing off the sand..... We really had everything we needed and then some! We were within easy walking distance to a number of good restaurants, and easy road access to the rest of Pensacola. Quiet neighborhood for walks, no dogs barking, etc.

The Hidden Magnolia Cottage

CarrieRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This property worked very well for our family. The property was comfortable, quiet, and well stocked. It was a bit further from town than I anticipated but we enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and being in nature. It was a short drive to several grocery stores and restaurants. Being able to have my small dog there with me was my favorite part. The shower was very nice and we slept well in the beds. We felt safe in the area and enjoyed spending time in the cottage.

Bay Cottage- private pier, 4 acres, sunset heaven

KathyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Quiet and very relaxing. Dolphins out frolicking everyday and sunsets were beautiful! House has everything you need. Bring insect repellents as they could be quite brutal at times at least while we were there. We will be back.

YaMar Cottage - Beach, Lagoon, Pool within steps

AshleyRating, 5 stars6 days ago
We had the best stay at YaMar. The cottage was stocked with all the things we would need for our stay (towels, toilet paper, cooking supplies, beach wagons, chairs and umbrellas, etc). We were very happy with the proximity to the beach that was directly across the street. The pool right down from the house was a huge hit with my kids. We also enjoyed watching the sunset on the dock and swinging on the swings. There were plenty of restaurants and grocery stores within a short drive. The host was a great communicator and extremely accommodating. We highly recommend staying here!

Hammock Hideaway - waterfront cabin

SueRating, 5 stars4 days ago
This home is exceptional. Very comfortable living area, well equipped kitchen, and bedrooms conducive to restful nights! Our favorite spot was the screened-in porch for morning coffee and quiet evenings where herons and turtles appeared to entertain us! Also Donna, the host, was very attentive checking in to see if anything was needed! We look forward to staying there again when back in Alabama! We give this house a 5+!

Beach Haven Cottage in West Side Cottages

KatieRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Beautiful condo. Teresa was very responsive and helpful. We had some confusion at check in and she was immediately available and calling to get it worked out. Very clean condo! We enjoyed the walking path and the view of the bay. The walking path is directly behind the condo and leads to the beach- it’s about a quarter mile walk to the beach. We enjoyed watching the birds from the deck! The pool was nice, always busy! Overall the condo is beautiful just as pictured and described. Would definitely stay again.

Beach Cottage - NEAR BEACH! - 3bd 2ba - NO GS TAX!

LindsayRating, 5 stars6 days ago
Our family loved staying here. Beautiful, spacious, and clean. It looks small on the outside but once you walk in, it is roomy and comforting. Had all of the amenities one would hope to have when staying in an Air BnB. Hosts were friendly and communicative! It was great to have the community pools when you wanted to be in the water but not go to the beach. The "main" town of Gulf Shores and some of the other beaches are about a 20-30 minute drive away so not far. We loved staying here, it was perfect. Thanks for sharing this beautiful home with others Beth & Dan!
