Vacasa….do better!

Our unit was very clean upon arrival. However, the unit is not what it was made out to be. We were under the impression that we had a beachfront unit/balcony. This would be perfect considering one of our guests was handicap and couldn’t walk down to the beach. She planned to sit and watch us. Our view was a block wall. We also didn’t realize that there were 4 sets of stairs to climb to our unit. Very hard for a handicap person. I sent Vacasa a message and asked to possibly be moved to another unit that would be more comfortable and accommodating. Vacasa sent back multiple questions asking why… although I had already told them multiple times. They replied that they would start the request. We never heard from them about it again. They received their money and were not interested in helping anyone. They didn’t care at all. The pics made me think of a cereal box where it states “enlarged to show detail,” it’s definitely a micro unit! We vacation quite often, yet I’ve never dealt with such non-caring people. I will never use this company again!

Meh

This condo is okay all around. We stayed for the weekend of the 4th of July so we paid a pretty high price for it. The location is great, walk to the beach and a ton of different restaurant options is great too. My issue is the condo itself was pretty haggard. Dirty handprints on the white doors, filthy shower curtain liner, you can see by the baseboards that the floors aren't truly clean. The handle in the bath/faucet is either broken or installed upside down, the master bedroom tv is fading so bad it's hard to watch. Balcony door doesn't line up properly so we couldn't ever lock it. There is no broom anywhere that we could find to clean up sand. Pool is absolutely FILTHY, trash floating in it and no net to skim. Didn't see a single maintenance worker the whole time and the dumpster is overflowing with trash, literally. If you’re super low key and looking for a place to sleep only, the beds were very comfortable and it's fine for that, but I would not return simply due to the lack of cleanliness and lack of upkeep. For what they charge it should be better. Also, there were only two key fobs hanging up when there are supposed to be four, so we called to make note of that so we aren't charged for the other two.

Meh

This home was ok if you are just looking for a place to sleep. It isn't very clean nor is it updated. Master TV is going out, wifi is spotty at best, shower curtain is filthy, shower faucet handle is either upside down or broken, dirty handprints all over the doors, baseboards are visibly gross. Balcony door doesn't lock. Beach access is nice and easy, but the pool was absolutely disgusting and had trash in it. Dumpster is overflowing with trash. I would not stay here again.

Family Vacation

Very clean please. Easy access and a couple steps to the beach. The kitchen had everything you needed if you were planning on cooking. A store right across the street. Very convenient spot.

Great Getaway Spot

We enjoyed our stay at this unit! Very good impression when you walked in--clean, well-decorated, just what you would want. Everything worked, listing accurate. Peek-a-boo view of the water. (Know that main view from balcony is side of another building.) Pleasant to sit on balcony, patio furniture comfortable. Main bedroom has king size bed, soft mattress but found it VERY comfortable and got great sleep. Didn't use second bedroom. Bathroom well-equipped, good storage, and places to hang towels.Kitchen well equipped with everything we needed (did minimal cooking).It is second floor unit, but since the building is raised renters should know that it is 3 flights up with no elevator. Worked for us (and we are age 62 and 71) but could be difficult for some folks to carry their stuff up.The main attraction, the beach, was easy to access and wonderful. Enjoyed the (very clean) pool as well.Would rent again! Thanks!

Gulf Shores retreat

Harbor House matched the listing description and photos exactly. We loved that we could walk to the beach and that it was a less populated area. Nearby restaurants were awesome. We highly recommend Bahama Bob’s and Gulf Shore Seafood (take-out). Overall it was a very relaxing vacation and hope to come next year.

Family Fun Location

Our family enjoyed this location. Our family enjoys smaller locally owned condos and this fit the bill perfect. This allows mom to be a bit more relaxed on vacation and kids have a bit more perceived independence. The buildings form almost a inner courtyard paved area, which blocks some of the road traffic view and noise. Mom was able to get up early and enjoy coffee on a quiet balcony. Our family enjoyed the pool, beach, walkway, and foot showers. Condo was clean and comfortable. Location was great. We walked to the grocery mart across the street, down to a couple different Alvin's Island, and to the Sunliner diner. We would stay here again.
