Great house!

Great house! It was perfect for our large group and we loved that each bedroom had its own bathroom. We loved the convenience of having a pool or walking across the street to the beach.

Great trip!

We had a very nice time at Shells. The pool was big and got a lot of use! The beach access right across the street was very convenient versus walking to the public beach access. All in all, it was a great trip!!

Great for large families!

We have a large family and had plenty of room for everyone. We enjoyed the pool and the large decks. It was very easy to access the beach. There were grills left by previous renters so we took advantage!

Loved Shells East!!

I loved Shells East!! There was so much space for our group and we were able to come and go from the beach as much as we wanted!! You can see the water from almost all the bedrooms! The pool was a great addition for a really windy day when we wanted a more relaxed place to lay out!

Peaceful, beautiful, spotless. Recommend!

Shells was very beautiful. Very quiet location. Within driving range of restaurants, shops, and other activities. The beach was within walking distance and was not crowded. The kids enjoyed the pool that was a nice amenity. The house was huge (stayed in the East side, 6 bedrooms of the 2-sided duplex), big enough to fit all of us and then some. I would recommend Richard's to anyone looking to stay at Gulf Shores, Alabama.

Great week!

We had a great week! The set up of the house is great, and we love that each bedroom has a bathroom. The kids loved the lights in the pool. We loved your home and will definitely consider returning as long as we can still fit! Our family grows each year with marriage and babies!

Everything was great!

We had a wonderful time at Shells. It was really nice and was very clean. We were there with three of our four kids, spouses and 9 grandkids. We all loved it. There were a few outlets that didn't work (first floor bathroom, one in the family room and a couple upstairs). And the first floor bedroom/balcony door was hard to open. Otherwise everything was great!

Everything was great!!

Everything was great!! Our whole team stayed in both sides of the house. Everyone got along pretty well. The pool was a ton of fun for all of the kids since they all knew each other. Beach was great-yellow flags all week…the weather 🥵 well, let's just say, I'm from Arkansas and the humidity was insane 🤣 it was a fun, relaxing week with our friends and plenty of space for everyone. Loved how the outdoor balcony up too connected so the kids could go back and forth with their friends.

Great vacation place for big group!

Our ball team stayed in both sizes of this house. It was great. We loved having plenty of space for everyone to sleep as well as spread out. We also enjoyed the outdoor area under the house where we could all get together and eat. It was also nice to have the pool together with our friends. We liked the outside deck on the upper floor as well as the balconies on several of the rooms. The only issue we ran in to with so many families was parking. The parking is kind of tight. Fortunately since we knew everyone in both sides of the house we were able to make 3 rows of vehicles and work it out. Would definitely stay here again.

5 star is not enough

This home was perfect for our family of 14 (5 being kiddos 7-12 in ages). Extremely CLEAN, with plenty of room for all of us and we didn't feel like we were ontop of each other. Loved that every bedroom had its own bathroom and the kitchen was well stocked with utensils for us to cook. Our vacation was the first for my husband and I to have all our adult kids and grandbabies together for an entire week and we all had a blast. The location was perfect, not far from the Hang out, the beach was a short walk across street and can be seen and heard from front porches, the bay can been seen from back deck and can watch the sunrise from there as well. Oh the pool was a hit with kiddos too. We cant thank Richard and his crew enough for a perfect home and for checking on us throughout our stay to make sure all was good. 5-stars is not enough as this house exceeded that. We will book again, our grandbabies said “your house is LIT”, thanks again Richard! The Russell family, East Tennessee

More than what we expected!

So first I want to say that I gave 3 stars for "accuracy of online listing" only because the pictures did not do this place justice. I think they are a bit out date. The house was beautiful! It fit my party of 25 comfortably (we rented both sides of this duplex. We were here for a wedding weekend. Everyone was able to bunk up and have their own or shared bed. Each room had its own bathroom. Everything was clean and maintenance was already in changing out batteries in some of the smoke detectors. We had our own beach access right across the street, which we used as the entrance to our isle for the wedding ceremony. Kitchens were stocked with everything we needed. Property manager was quick to respond to questions we had about the area, they even sent text updates about beach weather and easy directions about check in/out. The only downside was the many flights of stairs, but that's too be expected for a sizable home. Overall we enjoyed staying here and would 100% recommend any family to stay. Any wait to come back!
