The home is very nice and we enjoyed our stay. It's in a great location and close to everything and close to Mobile. There were a few things that it does need is maybe some curtains. The sun does come filtering in the morning. There are no dressers in the bedrooms. Another tv in the master bedroom would be nice. Since its a large home it seems like it does stay damp but the heater does work well
host was great, very responsive. house was very clean and in a quiet neighborhood. only suggestion is dresser or chest in bedrooms and add TVs for each bedroom. other than that, perfect place for our family.
Parts of the house had a musty smell. The stools beside the fireplace were dusty with dog hair. Some of the blankets smelled like feet. I had to wash them before we used them. It was cold and the thermostat was set to not go above 72. He said if i needed to adjust it higher, i would need to pay an extra 100. The instructions were to place trash outside in trash bin by garage. However when we got there the trash was already overflowing.The online pics look better than the actual house.
This home was like home away from home. Plenty of room for the family. Josh was very attentive. Will stay again if we ever get back to Gulf Shores area!
We were down from North Mississippi for my wife's brother's funeral. We found this property available for the two nights we needed. It was very accommodating for our 13 year old granddaughter who has CP and is confined to a wheelchair. The huge open den, dining and kitchen area was great for her to move around freely, as well as the rest of our family. Should we be in south Alabama we will certainly look to see if this property is available.
Joshua is a great host. He kept us well informed.
Thanks for a great stay.
Along with a friend, I enjoyed a four day stay at the Daphne Hideaway. It was the perfect central location for exploring Fairhope, Point Clear, Bellingrath Gardens and Foley. The place was perfect for a nice quiet night after our daily ventures out sightseeing and shopping yet not far from a variety of restaurants. We would love to return again!
We had a soccer tournament for the weekend and found this place. We really liked it. It was clean and in a great location. We felt very safe and it was close to everything we needed. The one thing I would say is the place could be better stocked with paper towels, toilet paper, garbage bags, shampoo, etc. I travel with that anyway so it wasnât a big deal to me. Beds were comfy, towels were nice and clean and the pillows were good. We only had 1 issue with the front door lock and the owner was quick to help us get inside! Overall we were very pleased with the home. We would stay again!
My family of 4 visited the Daphne Spanish Fort region for a bike race and an extended weekend around Spring Break. The house is in an easy to get to location within the vast Lake Forest community in Daphne.
The house itself is not new, but the owners have done a good job with some renovations. The floors are brand new it seemed like the furniture as new. The open floor plan was geat for our family of 4.
Our major complaint with the place was a lack of furniture in the bedrooms. None of the three bedrooms had a dresser or chest of drawers to put our clothes. Bedrooms 2 and 3 had shelving in the closet but the master closet did not o e had no place to unpack our clothes during the trip. We improvised and made it work, but it seemed odd.
Overall we had a great time and the lack of a dresser did not really impact our trip. I would stay at the property again if visiting the area and would recommend to anyone visiting the area for more than a day or two.
We stayed here for an extended weekend to celebrate Mardi Gras and my 40th birthday. The location of the house was very convenient to Mobile and surrounding areas. My kids loved the spacious living area and playing the board games provided by the host.
