Thanksgiving

Delightfully located on the water but close to Fairhope. The property is beautiful with a porch, sun room and pier. Brightly decorated and so comfortable. We loved our stay. Our host had welcoming touches and gave special attention to our stay being over the Thanksgiving holiday. A great vrbo experience.

Incredible place on the bay. The sunroom had an incredible view of the dock and bay!

This place was great! Tina had a handwritten note and gift when we arrived. Place was one of our favorite VRBOs, very clean, three bedrooms each with a bathroom/shower which was great for our family. Tons of space and so many places to hang out (kitchen, living room, sunroom, covered porch, dock…) Highly recommend and would stay there again! Thanks Tina!

Awesome

This is a very clean and recently updated 3 bedroom 3 bathroom home. Has a brand new covered dock with lights. It also has good air conditioning and a tankless water heater so we never ran out of hot water. We were in Alabama for a softball tournament and this home is 19 minutes from the Foley sports complex. We will definitely stay here again.

This was our second stay at this beautiful beach house, but it definitely will not be our last! I can’t express how comfortable and beautiful the house was; and the views are spectacular. The host, Tina, is so sweet and accommodating.. and you must try dinner at Kingfisher!! every single dish the nine of us had was truly delicious.

Belle Vue was perfect for our family! We had my daughters’s wedding nearby, so the bayfront home was a perfect setting for our family getting ready. The views are absolutely lovely. We will treasure our memories from there.
