Little Lagoon Cottages #C - Sea Home Alabama

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Nestled between the Gulf of Mexico and Little Lagoon and with deeded beach access right across the street, this lovely home includes two balconies for catching romantic sunsets with someone you love, an ideal setting for a fun-filled Gulf Shores getaway. There's nothing like coming back to a spacious vacation home after a long day at the beach, so after easily spritzing away the sand with the outdoor shower, step inside and spread out across the comfy living room furniture to catch a good ballgame or a movie or show on the wall-mounted flatscreen TV. You'll love sharing a bottle of wine with old friends out on the private balcony while the salty sea air drifts by. The full kitchen features stainless steel appliances that include a French-door refrigerator. There is plenty of granite counter space to take advantage of while you prepare a delicious meal for everyone to enjoy at the handsome dining table with seating for six. The kids can even chatter away from the five breakfast bar stools. The shared pool is ready to cool everyone down after a long afternoon hike, and you can let the private washer and dryer take care of everyone's swimwear for tomorrow.

Honest Review
Honest Review-Our trip started out a little rocky. When we checked in, the house was 90 degrees on the inside. The AC unit was completely down. We had to call the help line and wait for maintenance to be called out. It was probably 1.5 hours and maintenance did show up to fix the AC. Unfortunately, it took about 12 hours for the house to start cooling off. This issue consumed the greater part of our first day there. Cleanliness could have been better, some items found left behind from previous renters. On the flip side, the location of this unit could not have been better. Perfect location. Not a lot of high rises in this area, mostly houses. Not a lot of traffic. Overall very low-key and quiet end of town. You can enjoy the lagoon and the beach only a few steps away. Mostly fully stocked kitchen. Could use some dish towels. The kids loved the bunk beds.

Perfect Getaway!!
This was my first time to the beaches in Alabama. My husband of 51 years passed away couple months ago. I told a friend I needed to take a break, she suggested here. Absolutely the perfect, relaxing place to be. The Little Lagoon Cottage is very clean, up to date decor and comfortable. Very peaceful. Reasonable drive to restaurants and shopping. The beach is across the street which was a reasonable walk. This would of been a perfect family retreat. Plenty of room!! The only reason I didn't do 5 stars, our code did not work a couple times.

Plan to be back
Our stay was great. Only complaint is the bedding blankets need to be washed between guests. The master bed room pillow shams had obvious drool stains from a previous guest.

Great location!
We absolutely LOVED our stay! This was our first family vacation and we have 3 children. Listing was exactly as expected. Perfect location walk across the street to beach, or swim in pool and fish off the lagoon dock. We will be back again Lord willing!!

Victim of circumstances
Overall a pretty meh experience. Location was good. When we arrived we just threw our stuff down and went to dinner came home and crashed. Space was exactly what we thought no issues there. It seemed a little hot but it was over 100 outside so we did not think much about it. The next morning we wake up and are getting ready and notice there is dried blood on the walls and door in the bathroom. I messaged multiple people finally to get a response from the owner. He was not sure how it was missed but it would be fixed. Flash forward to the young lady coming out to clean it up.... with windex???? Yes, a good ole magic eraser and windex to clean up blood. She stated she thought it was from the cleaning lady and she just did not notice. So day two our house is just getting hotter but not yet out of range of normal we think. On comes day three and when we return the house is hot, hot so i message the owner again to inform him about the air. I have now checked the air filters and can assure you they had not been changed in over 8 months. I sent a picture of this along with the thermostat saying I know it is kinda late but this needs to be addressed. He said he would get someone out in the morning. Now begins the true fun... after a very miserable night in the heat the owner messages me to inform me the repair man will be out at 10:00 AM. He then asked me if we could be there when he arrived. Now this day just happened to be my birthday but someone asking a renter to be at the unit and waste their day while they are on vacation??? COME ON. I respectfully told him it was my birthday and asked if he could get someone on their staff to come out. To which he said the people are a trusted vender and we would not need to be present. The air repair man came out to look at the unit around 10 and called us to move our vehicles so he could access the unit. So I have to come back to the house to do this. He tells us he is unsure why anyone would wait as they are 24 hour service no extra charge. While talking to him the property manager drives out and informs us we will have to move the cars. As ours are pulled out and the repair guy is parked across the way (where no one is home!!). Come to find out the person in the unit across the street has cameras and is your typical KAREN. So while she is not there and no one is hurting the normal flow of traffic she has complained. We explain we will move everything once the repairs are done. The management staff explains this lady is excessive and says they will let her know. After a few hours the unit is fixed and we think we are good for the trip. Guess again. Come the next day we get a text from Vacasa saying I need to move my car parked in the way. This is around 12:30 in the afternoon. To which I respond what car, as we have none in the way. They then send me a screenshot from the lady across the streets cameras (7:30 AM)showing we had an extra car parked just overnight. We had moved the car earlier as it was parked because of people out the night before. I replied that the car was long gone and had no idea how a lady who was not even there or had anything to do with this unit was complaining and dictating our stay. Yes, it says two cars before the owner or whoever wants to put a spin on this. Many others are doing the same thing as us with no issues. I did not care about their cars either as there was no issues with space. Just a lady being over the top. Vacasa informed me that this lady regularly calls the police. To all this I say circumstances maybe, but I worry about the deep cleaning of the units. I know this is a review based industry and even upon arrival even though I had not really even been at the unit gave the 5 out of 5 on the unit being clean (again had not been in the unit as we just went to dinner.) But with everything that happened I felt I would share. Did we get a discount or anything, n...

DIRTY!
Very dirty!!! I refused a cleaning because they would be in our way. Sand in Unslept beds, visibly dirty floor, showers with scum and mold, dirty dishes, cockroach is bathroom, bedding dirty and/or stained, mattresses need covers and cleaned, dust I could write in. 18 stairs to get to main living area. 18 additional stairs to bedrooms. Horrible experience with vacasa beforehand due to mistake on their part. Will not book vacasa again. Very small, cold pool. Nice dock out back. Easy access to beach directly across road. Responsive property manager. Not within walking distance to any food or attractions. But not a long drive either.

Great location
Loved the location and place it self, but it was filled with gnats. They didn’t provide enough towels for the amount of people it was booked for and also no extra sheets for the pull out couch. We did contact the Vacasa people and they said they would send someone but no one ever showed up. Didn’t wanna waste my vacation contacting people so I didn’t call back. Will stay again because the amenities where great and the location was awesome but hope they provide more sheets and towels. Also the master bed was dirty did not looked like they comforter has been washed and again no extra sheets to change the bed .
