We had a wonderful time in this great house! Had plenty of room for the 13 of us! The elevator was a life saver for my 97 year old mother. Loved the boardwalk to the beach and the pool. It is decorated darling and immaculate! Recommend it highly! Hope to stay there again next year! Definitely 5 star!!

Perfect multigenerational getaway!
We had 5 adult couples and 8 kids. Plenty of space, perfect bedroom/bathroom set up. The kids enjoyed the heated pool and everyone loved the house as well as the beautiful beach. The elevator was very helpful for the great grandparents and luggage. Thank you!

Just book it already!
This place is an absolute dream. I don’t think we’ll stay anywhere else on the gulf coast. It was very clean and well maintained. We had around 15 people. It was plenty of space, but still felt cozy. The master bedroom with its balcony and bathroom is gorgeous, but so are the other bedrooms. This was our first trip where the kids didn’t fight over bedrooms because they were all great. The second living room was perfect for the kids to wind down before bed so the grownups could enjoy some kid free time downstairs. The elevator worked perfectly and was a great solution for those in our party with mobility issues. The pool is small, but it’s well designed; shallow enough for the little kids to touch, but deep enough for the adults to hangout. The beach was never crowded and the walkway and outdoor shower was nice and kept sand out of the house. We were a little worried there wasn’t really anywhere within walking distance, but the house was so nice, we didn’t really wind up going anywhere. 10/10 fantastic stay!

Beautiful views!
Exceeded our expectations! Loved the elevator ,the views on each floor was spectacular. Steps from the sand. Up to date decor. Would have like to have seen a few more bowls, and tongs for grilling. Loved the refrigerators (2) very nice size. Loved the fact on 2nd and 3 rd level there was washer and dryer . Loved the balconies on each level from 3 of the bedrooms. We will absolutely be back . Thank you for sharing . Can’t wait to come back.

Great place to enjoy the beach and relax
The property was very clean and has a great view of the ocean as it is beachfront of course. The pool looked clean but was a little chilly but that doesn’t stop a young child from playing for a few hours in it. Definitely like that the kitchen which has 2 refrigerators and 2 dishwashers which helps with a large family. Overall the stay was great and management help with a few issues which was great but the they never was able to get the TV in the master bedroom to work our entire stay. I give it 4.8 stars and would return back to this property!

Beautiful home right on the beach!!!
When it comes to vacation, we are Hotel snobs! This house exceeded all of our expectations! It was absolutely gorgeous with amazing views! It was right on the water and convenient to get back to the house for naptime for our Littles. We had such an amazing time and can’t wait to go back again! The first night we had an issue with the pool heater and the owner was super responsive and was able to get it fixed immediately!

Lil Tipsea
I was shocked that the property was in the shape it was for only being 1 1/2years old. Tile floors in bathrooms needed attention in front of sink and shower where the tile was dark with ground in dirt. One dishwasher was plugged up, and rancid water sitting in it for God knows how long, second dishwasher slow to drain. Both had a horrible odor when the door was opened. Reported on the first day TV's in certain bedrooms not working, one missing power cord and 3 missing remotes, never corrected for the entire 7 day stay. Filter on left refrigerator in door water system in alarm for dirty filter whole stay. Outside patio furniture rusty and pieces of the wood falling off several chairs. Downstairs BBQ was full of ashes had to clean it out before we could use it. Couch and counter chair had big red stains on them. The dinning chairs padding was completely worn down and was like sitting on a box frame. The Livingroom cabinet had old molded cookies inside of it. Small bedroom on top level had black mold growing in the toilet. The morning we were leaving and stripping the bed linens we found a huge old blood stain at the head of the bed on one of the mattresses...disgusting!

This is a beautiful house. New and modern, beautiful touches all over the house. Owners/Managers were very quick to follow up on any question or information needed. Location is great, close to everything. Suggestion: bigger pots and pans for family sized cooking. Would recommend and would stay again.

Fantastic Property
My family and I really enjoyed our stay at Lil Tip Sea. The property was exactly as described-super clean, very spacious, great location, and amazing beach views. Kitchen was awesome with two refrigerators, ovens, dishwashers & washers/dryers. The living spaces were very nice with plenty of seating for everyone and the elevator was a nice addition to this 3-story beach house. We brought our own pots as previous reviews stated they were limited, however, all other items were plentiful. Property owners were very friendly and quickly responded to all requests/inquiries. We had a wonderful time and will definitely stay here again in the future.

Fantastic Family Vacation
We had an amazing family vacation at this property. It is beautifully decorated and seems essentially new. Very high ceilings on every floor and abundant windows enabled breathtaking views. From the extravagant master suite on the top floor, we could see both stunning sunrises and sunsets from the side windows. The property was spotless and smelled fresh and clean on entry. There were 9 of us: 5 adults and 4 children under the age of 15. Each kid was delighted to have their own room and the adults all had gulf-front master bedrooms with pub height chairs on the balconies for amazing views. The elevator worked perfectly was handy for moving luggage up to the top floor. Dedicated (and great working) air conditioning per floor ensured we were all comfortable. High quality ceiling fans in every room allowed for great circulation if more was desired. Property manager response was excellent for a small issue that popped up and was immediately addressed. High quality appliances in the kitchen; wall oven and micro/oven in addition to the range oven, two dishwashers, two large refrigerators with water and ice, and a separate dedicated ice maker were really appreciated. As other reviewers have mentioned, the kitchen has the basic pots and utensils, more advanced cooks might want to bring larger stock pots and perhaps some nicer non-stick skillets. Nice coffee mugs and Keurig as well as a nice toaster helped our morning rituals. We ate nearly all of our dinner meals at local restaurants - there are many good ones in the gulf shores area. The beach area in front of the property is classic Gulf Shores - tons of clean white sand and nice water frontage. The area is all homes, no condo towers on the beach nearby so it seems a little more private and less crowded. There is a condo tower across the street, but we didn’t see too many people coming through the public access down the way (perhaps due to the season). The private gated boardwalk was a nice feature that many gulf-front homes don’t have available. The spigot on the boardwalk to rinse off sandy feet is a nice touch. Given we were there in late October, we asked to have the pool heated and it was comfortable when we arrived. This is a beautiful home and we would gladly stay again.
