Perfect for Family of 4

We had a great time and the property was exactly as described. Great balcony overlooking the pools. Short walk to the elevator was a nice bonus! This is definitely a place that we will stay again.

Family Celebration

This property is away from the main activity, so it is quiet and peaceful. It also has wonderful amenities with beach access, swimming pools, tennis court and walking paths. The condo was very comfortable, including the bed and pillows (unusual!). The owner was wonderful and very, very helpful during our stay. Highly recommend and would return.

Great family vacation

We had a great time in Fort Morgan. Riddle Me By The Sea was a great place to stay. It had everything our family of six needed. We were just steps away from 2 swimming pools and a short walk to the beach. There is a restaurant on sight at the resort as well. Connie and Rocky were great host with great communication. We can’t wait to come back!

We have already re-booked!

We loved this little condo- its clean, simple, and the community is wonderful. I stayed with my 2 young daughters and we felt very safe and comfortable. I was directly in touch with the owners on more than one occasion and had my questions answered quickly. My only complaint/grievance is that I do not feel the refrigerator was cold enough, it was loud and sounded like it was struggling. Which was concerning because we brought alot of food to cook for the week. I was impressed with the efficiency of the AC unit and availability of fans (we like it cold, especially at night) and the water pressure in the showers. I have already re-booked and plan on booking more stays here.

Best Family Vacation

We loved our stay at Riddle Me By the Sea! Our hosts, Rocky and his wife, were so incredibly attentive and helpful through our whole stay via text and phone. Private and calm, with activities of Gulf shores less than 20 minutes away. The beach is actually closer than the pictures show and it took less then two minutes to travel from condo to pool chair. The indoor pool was so clean and convenient for the cloudy day. The Sassy Bass grill was in the bottom floor of the building and was delicious(I recommend beer cheese taters). Great place for fried shrimp baskets and drinks on the beach, as the outdoor seating overlooks the ocean. The community space has the pools, restaurant, and activities right there, so it was perfect for our 3 and 1 year old girls to romp around. Also, convenient to shops and other restaurants at the Village Hideaway plus you are 5 minutes from a Dollar General. Could see the ocean and bay from our balcony, such incredible views. Absolutely the most relaxing stay with our little family. Our two kiddos slept great the whole week in the quiet community and had the best time with all smiles. Will definitely be coming back!
