Great property! Great hosts!

Our stay in Gulf shores exceeded our expectations and much of it had to do with this property and how it is managed. We overpacked, thinking that we needed household supplies for our trip. That ended up being a mistake and a waste of space in our car, as everything from laundry detergent to dish soap was already provided by the hosts. The property is spacious, well-maintained and very clean. With our group of seven, having four bathrooms was a godsend. The hosts were incredibly responsive to all of our needs and made sure that everything was perfect for our arrival. This will definitely be our go-to place for any future trips to Gulf Shores!

Perfect Family Friendly Getaway

We absolutely loved everything about our stay at The Little Mermaid. It was family friendly, loved the pool and great beach access. The house had everything we needed. Loved the beach wagon that comes with the rental complete with beach umbrella, chairs, and toys. We really had the best time with our family and highly recommend this rental.

Amazing Property, Great Location!

This property is perfect for a beach vacation! It's clean, new, spacious, beautifully decorated and in close proximity to the beach. Host was helpful and responsive, beds are comfortable, towels are fluffy and it's in a great community with a nice pool. We felt comfortable and safe. We really appreciated that beach toys and supplies were available and plenty of parking. I can't say enough positive things about our experience, we would definitely stay here again!

Clean, cozy, and great pool!

The house was very clean and had everything we needed to make it a comfortable place to stay. The pool is big and clean and my kids loved swimming in it. The wagon and extra toys and chairs were really helpful for our walk to the beach. We also enjoyed walking over to the bay in the afternoons.

All you are looking for

This property is everything you are looking for and more. The host thought of everything thing you would need for a beach vacation. They included beach chairs and under and a cart tlfor transport to the beach. The house was clean and well stocked. Location was close to everything and faraway for a little quiet.

Perfect location for family beach week

This house was just as advertised. The bunk room was comfortable for four teenagers. We loved having 4 bathrooms so no one had to wait to shower. All beds were comfortable and there were plenty of extra sheets and blankets. There were a few unexpected nice touches that we haven’t experienced in many other beach rentals. There is a wagon, beach toys and chairs in the carport storage closet. There was also liquid hand soap at every sink, sounds silly, but a really nice extra. The pool is bigger than it looks in the pictures and the pool deck has plenty of room to spread out. We enjoyed the walking path behind the neighborhood which lead right to the street where the crosswalk brings you to public beach access. It was nice not to have to walk along the main road. Overall, a great week!
