The Highlights

Welcome to Coastal Blessings! Located in desirable Surfside Shores, this 5-bedroom, 4 bath home sits directly on the beautiful Gulf of Mexico. One feature of this home and the space you'll likely enjoy the most is the expansive, wraparound deck which offers both sun and shade. You'll want to spend time here during the day enjoying all that a beachfront home has to offer but don't forget to spend some time stargazing in the evening. And you'll have a front row seat if you are lucky enough to be here when the Blue Angels are practicing. The owners have invested in comfortable and durable polywood furniture.

The Space

Step inside and your find an open floor plan with a colorful and comfortable living space. This will be where the group gathers to recap the adventures of the day and plan for tomorrow. Or maybe spend time watching a movie, playing games or finally reading that book. This space offers incredible views of the gulf so even when you are inside, you'll still be able to enjoy the gorgeous white sand beach.

The updated kitchen features granite counter tops and stainless-steel appliances. In addition to the large dining table, there is counter seating for 4. This home has everything you'll need to prepare simple meals should you choose to dine in.

The lower level contains two bedrooms. One, has a King bed with an en suite (shared with hall). The second features a King bed with a private bath. Head upstairs where there are three additional bedrooms. A King bedroom with a private bath, a second King bedroom and bunk room with 2 full/full bunks that share a Jack and Jill bath.

Reviewer Comments: We were looking for a place for extended family (including the dog!) to gather for a few days with easy beach access...Coastal Blessings provided what we wanted!

Great family vacation spot
The property was absolutely wonderful. Great location. The only thing that I would change would be to make the area under the house more usable for corn hole at night or something like that.

Excellant Family Stay
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is my first review ever and I kind of hate to post it! It might get booked up before we can re book! :) Our family of 9; 6 adults and 2 teens, an 11 yr old boy & a little doggy, arrived in early July and were immediately in love with this beach house. Some would mention cosmetic issues; but none bothered us enough to mention them!The location & amenities are so perfect; we overlooked all of them. This home was the first we've stayed at in years that was fully stocked with items we needed. I have been taking pans, spatulas, pitchers, etc. Not here. There was multiples of everything; including 3 coffee makers plus a single Kureg! It felt like home.The beach WAS literally steps away. Usually we have SO many wood steps then a nice hike to the beach we are on. Nope, it is right there.Perfection.We had a plumbing issue on Sunday. Before I could call, the office had texted me to see if all was good. I told her about the issue and the handy man was there quick. When that didn't help, a plumber came. All on Sunday and all QUICK, no runaround, no nonsense.Issue reared it's head again on Tuesday and the plumber was right there quick again. Issue fixed!The beds and linens are wonderful; not just your normal white sheets. Nice high count sheets. ♥Warning; the master upstairs is HIGH! If you are short, bring a stool! ;)The balcony upstairs was my favorite place. 2 high stools and a table; nice breeze. Wonderful.My family loved everything about the house, the beach and the surrounding area. We surely hope to be back again.

Family Vacation
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second year staying at Coastal Blessings. It is a great house with plenty of room for our crew of 14. Only a couple of minor areas that need improvement. It was very junky under the house with broken chairs,beachtoys,trash, etc. that had been left by previous guests. The property manager came by to check on us. We informed her and she said she would take care of it. She was very friendly. The only other thing is none of the outside deck lights worked. Some had no bulbs at all. Overall, we love this house and hope to come back and enjoy another vacation here!

Could have been better
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love Coastal Blessing. The layout fits our family. There is plenty of room for all of us. This year I was disappointed in the cleanliness of the place. There was a lot of sand. I know we are at the beach, but the from the first night, we were wiping off our feet to get in the bed. There was even sand in the master closet. I found clothes from previous renters in obvious places, as well as fallen down beside the dryer. The crow's nest is a great feature. It is fun to go up and look out, but there was nothing up there to sit on so you could enjoy it for more than a minute. It got a little chilly while we were staying there but there were no extra blankets. One last thing is that the master bed and mattress creaked as you got in and out, enough so you were waking your partner. The stove was beginning to show its age in that, the right front burner cooked too hot and the back right burner cooked too low. We adjusted and managed. We love the location close to the ferry, the pet friendly beach, and outside deck. We will rent here again.

We had a great stay. Everything worked as it should. Outdoor decks and furniture were great! Being able to walk out the back door and be on the beach was great! Weather couldn’t have been better. Saw dolphins daily. Nice to be away from the traffic at gulf shores.

House was beautiful, beach was stunning. Each morning we seen lots of dolphins swimming !!!
House was beautiful, beach was stunning and each morning we seen lots of dolphins swimming. Ghost crab hunting was really successful without all the crowds from the condos from in town. I'd definitely recommend staying here rather closer to town if you want less crowded and more intimate time with your family and friends. House had everything we needed. Guests left some toys, chairs games etc from prior visits so check the house before you buy anything like that. The owner obviously says it doesn't come with it but some was left. The shower pressure was good. Kitchen was well equipped. The refrigerator had a little bit of trouble keeping up so dont over load it and follow the check in directions exactly and you will be fine. Bring bug spray as bugs at night are out but definitely worth hanging out on the decks. Yes i said decks each room has access to each and plenty of space so everyone to find their own quiet spot to read or relax and enjoy the veiw! Everything was absolutely perfect. I'd definitely recommend and my family and best friends family will be back next year for sure!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had 12 people in the house, including 5 kids, and never did we feel cramped! The living/dining area was a bit smaller than it looked like o r he pics, but it was actually never an issue because the deck outside more than made up for it! The deck is what sold me on this particular house and it lived up to its expectations! And the second story deck was also great!

A beach front retreat
The home was great for our group/family. Being able to walk onto the beach from the steps was just excellent! We found a few minor maintenance needs which weren't a big deal at all. While it's not opulent luxury, it feels like the beach house we thought of for our family. A great stay!

Every bedroom has ocean view!
We were so thrilled that all 5 bedrooms in this beach house had, not only an ocean view, but a door access to a deck! In 20+ years of renting we’d never been blessed to have a house with a layout like that. Dining table with generous proportions, well-stocked kitchen, delightful 3rd story lookout room, high-quality sturdy deck furniture, granite countertops, easy-close kitchen drawers, new sitting room furniture. Some cons were that there was some dog hair/dust on baseboards/chair rails, a few things needing replaced or in disrepair and we unfortunately found about 6 huge palmetto bugs. The property manager was very responsive and helpful; sent out pest control earlier than their next scheduled treatment. We also had an a/c problem and again, the property manager promptly arranged for repair. Also, there are several tiers of homes behind the beach houses in this area so if you’re like us and prefer more private beach space, set up your beach chairs early to establish your space; otherwise, you’ll have large groups of people from behind setting up camp for the day directly in front of your house.
