Great house, just as described…

The house is beautiful, updated and very clean. We had 3 couples, 3 kids, and two dogs and everyone had plenty of room for all. We sat out on the very large deck everyday and enjoyed the beautiful sunsets.

Great stay on the beach!

Repeat clients! We love it here. The large porch and sunsets are amazing. On the beach so allows for littles to nap easily. Great boardwalk. Spacious, clean and plenty of kitchen utensils! Nice bed linens and mattresses. Feels like home away from home. Thanks Sam & Liz!

4th of July Beach Week

We loved the beach house and it was easy access to the beach from the house. The neighbors put on quite a fireworks display and seeing The Blue Angels just topped off the week. Perfect weather and the house had everything we needed for a relaxing week at the beach.

Fantastic house!

Very clean and comfortable house. Outstanding, well equipped kitchen- there was a blender and hand mixer, I have never seen that at any beach house in all the years we have stayed at the beach. So many towels!!! It was so nice to have more than 1 towel per person. I didn't have to do laundry every single day. Comfortable beds and couch for being lazy on vacation. Check in was super simple and finding the house was easy with GPS. View from the dining room, living room and kitchen was awesome! Beach was very enjoyable and not too many people around. We brought our boat and launched at the Fort. It was easy to do and it was nice to see dolphins hunting a school of fish. We saw dolphins from our beach house and even a shark feeding right at dusk! There were a couple of days of jelly fish, but they were big and easy to see and avoid. There was also one day of lots of seaweed rolling in, but the rest of the time we had clear, blue water. Very pleased with the house, hope to be back soon!

Black mold

The house has black mold in the upstairs bathroom as well as around the air vent leading up to the upstairs bedrooms. We had several people in our party get sick. We found it in the stair well at the end of our trip.

Best beach house!!

This is our second time staying at Wave Watch and it was even better than the first time. The new floors and new living furniture are beautiful. We felt so “at home” there. The beach is right out the back door and the deck is perfect for relaxing in the evening. Saw the dolphins one day! The house was very clean and had plenty of towels and kitchen ware. Just a wonderful week there.

Lovely Beach House

This was a lovely beach house perfect for our family get-away. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking (better than most houses I've rented). The owners were friendly and happy to answer my questions. We loved the living room for hanging out on the couch and taking sun-breaks. Overall, a great experience!

Wave Watch Review

Excellent location with easy access to the beach. House was clean and had ample space for our large group. Although likely dependent on the time of year, the water was crystal clear and we greatly enjoyed swimming and observing the aquatic wildlife. We particularly appreciated that the location was removed from the summer crowds, but restaurants and other activities were still reasonably close. The only negative item was that the upstairs beds were too firm. Otherwise a wonderful experience.

Family retreat

We rent a home at least once a year with our adult children and their significant others. This was a well equipped kitchen (family of vegans with so many food allergies that it’s easier for us to cook together than to go out) that allowed us to have an excellent week together with very little annoyance about what we “forgot to bring” because it was so well equipped. Thank you . Beach was private: Sunsets and Sunrises were amazing. The surf was active which made for the best natural sleep sounds. Hosts were responsive and asked questions before we could anticipate what we needed. Top notch customer service. Can’t imagine that we won’t be back! Thank you!! Nesseth family and @theggoldenroad

Nice House and Beach

This house was perfect for our needs and the beach was great. Could have used some very minor touchups, but nothing that impacted the enjoyment of our stay. the property managers were very responsive for the 1 small issue we did have. Overall a great beach and beach house experience.

Great stay at Wave Watch

My wife and I along with our two kids and their spouses and four grandkids had a perfect stay at Wave Watch. Along with great access to the beach the house is in great shape and well maintained. Cable TV's in every bedroom and a huge one in the living area. House has perfect flow between the kitchen , dining and living area. Great views and big two story ceiling in living area make the house very spacious. All bedrooms perfect size and never ran out of hot water with all ten of us there. Tons of appliances and kitchen ware galore. Even a second refrigerator down on the ground floor and three grills. Never needed a thing and Sam and Liz are very responsive to any need you may have as they live nearby. We would definitely stay there again. Loved it!!!

Fun with Family

We did not come for "tourist stuff" but to relax and have family time. Spent most of our time on the beach and swimming in the ocean. Grandkids enjoyed riding their body boards on the waves and nightly walks looking for those crazy sand crabs. 🦀 House could use a little TLC but had plenty of room for family meals and game/movie times. Ate close by at Fort Morgan Tacky Jacks which was very good.

Wonderful 2 weeks!!

We just returned from spending 2 weeks in this fantastic house! This was our first time in the Fort Morgan/Gulf Shores area, and we loved it - we will be back! Communication with the owner, Liz, was great. A few days leading up to our stay she checked in. I texted with her throughout our stay with questions about restaurants, etc, and she was very responsive. The house is VERY clean. It looks like new LVT was put in throughout the house - no carpet anywhere. I had to sweep up the kitchen and living room every couple of days - but that's to be expected at the beach. Bathrooms were all very clean, and stocked with plenty of clean white bath towels. All the beds were comfortable. The full sized washer and dryer are conveniently located on the main level - we used them a lot. This house has 2 AC units that work very well - the house was never hot. Nice patio furniture on the big deck. Well equipped kitchen. There is a full size fridge/freezer in the kitchen, and a 2nd full size fridge/freezer on the carport level -- really nice for overflow food and beverages. Water temperature was great. We saw dolphins almost everyday. The beach was never crowded - this is not a "party scene area" - just families hanging out on the beach and having fun. This house has a very cool sandbar about 10 feet out into the ocean. Everyday we would swim out to the sandbar area and just bob around in the knee/waist deep water. I don't know much about how much seaweed there usually is in the Gulf, but there was a little seaweed our first week (not enough to deter us from getting in the water), and the 2nd week there was none. Thanks for renting us your house! We loved it!

Our new favorite!!

We had a wonderful week at Wave Watch!! The house worked out great for the nine of us and we did not experience any problems or have any concerns. The cleaning crew was leaving as we arrived and they did a very nice job. It was great to have the extra refrigerator on the lower level because as always we brought along more than we needed!! We set up our canopies on the beach and spent either all or at least part of every day in our zero gravity chairs. The kitchen was well equipped and we cooked or grilled almost every night. Beds were comfortable for a good nights rest. Many thanks to Liz Law for keeping us informed about arrival and departure instructions. We will be back!!!
