Perfect family vacation spot

Cute, comfortable home with a short walk to the beach. Amazing views of both bay and gulf. We had groceries delivered for the week, the home had every amenity you could think of- there was absolutely no reason to leave if you didn’t want to. We enjoyed a few nights out exploring and dining out as a family- the house was a great foundation to build memories of a lifetime! Thank you!

Great Location

This house was the perfect spot to spend every day for 6 days on the beach. The beach is so close we would only take drinks with us, and walked back to eat lunch. The kitchen was well equipped for anything you needed. We had some difficulties with the fridge that by the 3rd time the maintenance guy finally got us up and running. In the meantime the property manager did bring us a cooler and ice with some food that we had lost. The sunrise and sunset on the back porch was so beautiful and a must see. The beach was very beautiful and clean.

Getting in and out of the driveway during the day could get a bit tricky, but only at times. They are building a new home across the road. Workers and suppliers was there alot. We were in the area last month for a week and had driven buy several times and knew what to expect. Thanks for a great week!

Wonderful Home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved staying at Fins and Flaingos! The home had everything you need! No need to bring your own “good cookware” they have you covered. The kitchen was completely stocked with everything ( except food). It is a very comfortable place and pet friendly. We had a wonderful unobstructed view of the gulf when we arrived, however soon after our arrival, construction started on a new house which now blocks the gulf view.

Family getaway

We absolutely enjoyed our stay! The house was the perfect size for our group. The front & back deck was perfect for grilling dinner & drinking coffee. It was a very short walk to the water which was a huge score for us! The only issue we had was the house was not clean! The floors were not swept and the bunk house smelled like a wet dog! The trundle bed was covered in dog hair and dirt.. We didnt let that ruin our fun though i ran to the store bought febreeze pet and sprayed really good, swept all the floors and vacuumed the trundle bed & enjoyed our 6 day getaway ❤️ The property manager was very sweet and was quick to assure us the Cleaning issues would be addressed.

Beautiful and Relaxing

We thoroughly enjoyed our 16 night stay. The home was clean and offered every kitchen gadget imaginable. Super well organized and efficient. We sat on the gulf-side deck each morning to enjoy the sunshine and pretty view, and then moved to the bay-side deck for a bit of shade in the afternoons. We had a great unobstructed view of the gulf and saw many dolphins! Just a short walk to the beach. The property managers were super fast to respond to our questions. The best service that we have ever had! We highly recommend this home for your pet-friendly vacation. Our two little princess dogs liked the sunny deck too! We walked many trails during our visit. We especially enjoyed Fort Morgan and the Bon Secour national wildlife refuge. We took the car ferry to Dauphin Island one day (the aquarium was very nice). It was a relaxing and beautiful getaway.

Close to the beach with very little view.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It is a cute little place - nothing to be wowed about. Don’t let the pictures on the listing fool you - there is a 3 story house built in the open space blocking any view. Construction started at 7:45am and ended at 5pm during the week. The pictures should be updated to give an accurate portrayal. Plus one of the owners on the beach side told us that they owned the beach in front of their homes and we could not set up in front of their place near the water - that we had to stay by the public beach entrance only. If this is true it would have been nice to know. Overall the place was ok, they attempted to update it but it lacks a few modern things, no keurig coffee machine, outdated code entrance lock and the floors need a really good cleaning because our feet were black after taking our shoes off outside and walking around the house. the management company should peak under the beds to see how their cleaning company is doing. The management company stopped by 3 times in our 4 day stay when a text would have sufficed. We did not let these things distract from family time at the beach.By the way, Walmart grocery does not deliver to this address so get stuff before making the drive down the long road.
