Our favorite stay so far!

My group of friends and I have been coming to the Gulf Shores area every October for many years now, and this is absolutely the best place we have ever stayed! We are all in unanimous agreement on this. Some of the great things about staying here: Communication with both the owner and the manager was excellent! It is right on the beach with great balcony views--we saw several dolphins playing and a gorgeous sunset! The elevator! Oh my, it is such a game changer, as we are all seniors. A bathroom for each bedroom (with tub/shower combos, except for the master, which had a large tub and separate shower.) Handy benches, tables, etc. in the bedrooms. An ice maker! Faucets to wash off the sand before coming in. Convenient location! It was a short drive to all the places we went to. We hope to come back!

Amazing stay

Our first time to stay here. The property was perfect for 4-6 adults. Location was incredible with few steps to the ocean. Elevator was great. Everyone said they slept really well in the beds. We love a sunset but the sunrises were beyond words. We enjoyed our stay so much that we booked it for 2025 before we left. Thanks again and see you next year!

Had a great time. House had everything needed for a great week. Very cosy, kitchen appliances were up to date and had every utensil you could think of. Maybe the first time I have rented a home that lived up to the pictures and narrative of the home. Good choice.

Simply amazing!

We rented this home for our first trip ever to the beach, and were absolutely blown away! Neil was easy to work with and very kind along with helpful about the area! The beds were soft, the kitchen was very well equipped. We had a slight problem with the home while there and the house manager came prompting check on things and take care of it. We felt safe and happy, and would come back in a heartbeat!

Great PLACE TO STAY!!!

Great place had 4 bedrooms and 41/2 baths rooms very roomy. Both lanais were very comfortable. Had wonderful sunrises and sunsets. The home had everything you would use in your own home. My suggestion would to bring extra toilet paper, paper towels , and Kleenex. They give you one of each. All pictures shown are exactly how the home is. You will enjoy your stay at the Tuscan Villa.

We love this place!

This was our second time staying at Tuscan Villa, and this time was even better than the last. We enjoy the convenience of the location and being able to walk right out onto the beach. The storage closet is filled with beach chairs, a canopy, toys, and everything you would need for the beach! The beds are comfortable and the house had enough room to sleep our family of 8 nicely. We will definitely be back again!

Family Beach Trip

We had a wonderful time staying in this beautiful beach house. It is well suited to a family and had everything we needed. We loved the location. It’s away from town and no big condos near by. There was no issue accessing the beach from the house and the beach was not crowded which is always nice.
