Good place to stay overall. - Brian



Literally across the street from the beach and had beautiful Gulf views from the front porch. Plenty of space for 7 and kid friendly. The provided bikes and beach chairs were put to good use. - Mary



I absolutely loved my stay... The Wi-Fi was fast, and the AC worked remarkably well, which made the whole stay even more comfortable. - Alejandra

    We have stayed in Gulf Shores several times and this by far was the best place we have ever stayed. The house is beautiful, the beds are comfortable, the kitchen and bathrooms are fully stocked. The house sits on the corner right across from the beach access so the view to the ocean is unobstructed. The beach toys and bikes that come with house were a great for our kids. This house really is a hidden gem!

    Fantastic stay at this vrbo! The rooms were excellent. Extremely easy access to the beach. The kitchen was well equipped. Communication with hosts was prompt and helpful. There were some chairs, a wagon, bikes, and a high chair that we didn't see in the listing but were available for use.

    This place was amazing! The location couldn’t have been better, just a quick walk across the street to the beach entrance. The porch facing the water was perfect for morning coffee and evening drinks. The main floor felt really spacious, and having an extra full bathroom there was super convenient. The kitchen had everything we needed, which made things easy. The beds were really comfortable, and the AC worked great the whole time. They also had beach chairs, towels, a wagon, and sand toys, which was such a nice bonus. Overall, it was the perfect spot in Gulf Shores and I would definitely recommend it!

    Overall great stay. Kitchen was surprisingly well-equipped. Only gripes were that both pools’ heaters were broken, and the indoor furniture could use an upholstery cleaning.

    Our stay at Castaway Corner at The Beach Villa Resort in Gulf Shores was absolutely wonderful! This VRBO condo provided the ideal setting for a beach vacation, and we would happily book it again. The staff was very helpful and accommodating! The unit itself was clean upon arrival, which is always the first sign of a great host. The kitchen was well-stocked, making it easy to prepare meals with everything from cookware to serving dishes readily available. It truly felt like a home away from home.The location is unbeatable. We had fantastic, easy beach access. The best part was the walkability: we highly recommend walking just down the street for dinner at The Beach House Kitchen and Cocktails and grabbing a treat at the ice cream shop right next door.The resort amenities were a major bonus. We loved having access to both the pool and hot tub. While the pool and hot tub felt a little cool initially (despite being listed as heated), the Gulf Shores sun warmed it up nicely, and it was a great way to cool off after a day at the beach.Overall, Castaway Corner is a clean, comfortable, and perfectly located gem. If you're looking for an excellent place to stay in Gulf Shores, look no further!

    Excellent location, good amenities, nice place. Floors not very clean - we had to buy a mop in order to clean the floors as our feet were black at nite and not from the beach.

    My 2 sisters and our families needed a place close to the beach that could sleep 8 adults and 3 kids under 4. We also needed somewhere pet friendly, as we were traveling with a dog. This house was perfect! You can’t beat the location, it is right across the street from the beach and very close to restaurants and shops (most a short drive but a few within walking distance). It was equipped with beach chairs and umbrellas, among other equipment. We all had a comfortable place to sleep and plenty of bathrooms! We had ocean views from the deck with comfy outdoor seating. The kitchen/living room was also very spacious and open. No issues at all during our stay. Would highly recommend!

    We visited for a week vacation, 2 families. Awesome location with a short walk to the beach! Sleeping 13, wish there was an additional bathroom. The bunk room was too tight for 3 people with bags but we made due!

    Perfect location. Voted by my family “the best deck!” Tastefully decorated with absolutely any kitchen appliance we needed. The beds were extra comfortable. The house was spotless with plenty of seating. I loved that all the bedrooms are upstairs for the early birds to enjoy coffee and talking without fear of waking up the late risers. We were impressed and gracious for all the “extras” the owners provided. We Will definitely rent this exact house again. It was perfect in every way! We loved every single day! The owners are honest and helpful with questions asked. The management is also very helpful and friendly. The owners made an excellent decision using them. Enjoy!

    We loved this property. It's in the perfect location, with a beautiful porch to sit and enjoy the beach breeze. It's also located very close to many restaurants. The furniture is nice and comfortable, it has a lot of room to sit back and relax. The kitchen is nice and very well equipped. The beach access couldn't be any more convenient. We really enjoyed our stay, and plan to return to this property again next year.
