Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There were 7 of us and this property was perfect! The beds were comfortable, the house was clean and had everything you need including a baby crib, all the kitchen utensils, and even a Keurig coffee maker. The property is beautifully decorated and laid out perfectly, with 2 ensuite bedrooms on one side (shower only in each) and 2 bedrooms and a shared bath on the other side (shower tub combo). There is plenty of parking and even a small, enclosed dog pen. And the view is magnificent! You cannot see the beach itself, but the view of the gulf is wonderful and does not disappoint! We were contacted by the property manager shortly after our arrival and they were very responsive to our questions. It was nice having someone to contact in the event of any problems and know that they would respond promptly. Also, during the reservation process, Coastal View Vacations (Jen) was such a pleasure to work with. The only negative about this property is the AC; there is a sign that states that the AC will freeze up if you turn the AC below 72. The weather was not unbearably hot when we were there, but I can imagine that during the summer months, 72 degrees is not cold enough, especially for hot-natured people. Overall, I would highly recommend Dream On and would love to return, just not in the heat of the summer (LOL!). Oh, and the Morgantown neighborhood is very nice. We did not visit the pools (I don’t think they were open), though, so I can’t comment on that. If you are planning a trip to Fort Morgan, please consider this property; you will have one of the best vacations of your life!

Outstanding property. As advertised. Quiet. Great location.

The home was exactly as advertised and very beautifully decorated. Everything was perfect and the walk to the ocean was short and safe if you had small children. The only thing I would recommend to be looked at would be the railing on back steps. Very loose and unsafe for children that didn’t know better and leaned on it too hard. All were adults in our group and steered clear of them to avoid any accidents or injuries.

We celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary with our family here and loved it so much,that we would love to stay here again!The home was gorgeous, spacious, clean, and comfortable with plenty of room for us all to have our own space. The location and beach access were sensational!The Beach was “WOW”! It was so easy to access from the boardwalk, the kids loved the sand bar directly out from the house, the water was inviting, and we were able to swim every day multiple times.We also spotted plenty of sea-life directly from the beach. We saw dolphins’ multiple times and even a few sharks, certainly from a distance 😊 the guys threw fishing lines out morning and night and many species of sea-life decided to visit us including, whiting, redfish, crabs, jelly fish and even had a sting ray on their line. Our 9-year-old caught the biggest fish! We also saw a shrimping boat right out from the deck, absolutely the coolest thing ever!I have to say each sunrise and sunset were spectacular and then the stars at night...breathtaking!!! I could go on and on!!!Lastly, let me say when we visit the Gulf Shores again, we will make more new memories here at Surfside!This comment is for DeeDee (the house manager). You are the Best!!! With all you did to make our stay better for my daughter, my family was greatly touched by your kindness and helpfulness. I appreciate and thank you for that!!!

Nice place in a great location. House is as described. The beach is beautiful and low crowds. Appreciate that the house was dog-friendly. The house could have used a few more basics like hot pads, dish cloths/towels, and a garbage disposal.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cechells. Very clean and well appointed and very homey. Comfortable beds. Close to beach. The pool, while not heated, was a nice amenity. We look forward to staying again when it’s a little warmer. Proximity to restaurants and shopping is great. There were a few minor things that could use attention on the interior and some screws on the wood stairs and deck are protruding, but all in all a wonderful place to stay. Also, the picture on the listing with that great view of the gulf needs to be updated due to a huge home under construction in the once empty lot. There is still a view of the gulf, but it’s limited now. Way more positives than negatives. We would recommend the property. We’ll be back!

Was in town for a wedding. Clean and comfortable. Only 1 issue. Someone left the water hose running in the pool. I noticed it on Sunday morning and turned it off. Weather was too cool to enjoy the pool, but it looked great.

fun and relaxing

Amazing location on the beach. Loved going to sleep with the sound of the ocean and waking to see the sparkling sand and beautiful waters. House was clean and very comfortable (will be even nicer when updates completed and maybe a dining table added). Property manager and housekeeping were great!!

Location is pretty good to beach but if you enjoy swimming in pools would recommend renting beach cart or driving to the large pool....but it is walkable.

This was more than a rental but a home. Conveniently located close to the main part of Gulf Shores. We look forward to coming back soon.

My husband and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary at Sunset in Gulf Shores this past week. We had a wonderful stay. We watched the dolphins come in and out and play. The sunrises and sunsets were so beautiful and the water was the perfect temperature. Highly recommend! We can’t wait to come back.

The process was easy and the home looked just like the pictures.

This rental was clean, convenient and a wonderful place to stay!!

Amazing location and convenient for those who like to walk out the door right onto the beach. The house was a perfect size for my husband and I. It has four bedrooms and can sleep 16, but living area would be quite tight for that amount if you are stuck in the house due to bad weather. You will want to bring extra bath towels if you are a larger party. Also, hand soap for the bathroom in addition to your toiletries.

A nice place to stay. The view and closeness of the ocean was great! I didn’t want to leave!

Love how close to the beach this place is. We had a very laid back family vacation week.

This place was absolutely amazing. It was stocked with everything we needed upon arrival. Everything was clearly labeled on where to find things which made my brain very happy. Very clean, comfortable beds- and loved the view. Will definitely stay here again. Very happy with finding this gem.

The entire complex is very family-friendly, with the exception of the alligators. We saw one in the marshy area right next to the house. Not anything that would keep us from coming back, but we were careful about our dog.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Smiles and Waves exceeded my expectations. The house is spacious and is well maintained. The outdoor shower, sand box, grill and swings were a huge hit for my family. This home is in walking distance to the beach, not even a three minute walk. I have four small children and the walk was very doable. The beach was not crowded at all. We will definitely be returning.

A great location, quiet and felt private. The house is well stocked but bring everything you need to cook, as far as food, spices, oil, etc. The house is older and could use some updates but overall it's a nice house. The beach is beautiful, a few oil rigs to the far right but they aren't in direct view. The sun and shade patio are the best. Perfect for sunning or staying outside without getting burned. I would recommend this house to anyone, and we plan to stay again next year.

Awesome, Fabulous, Exceptional - these are some of the words used by our group of 9 ladies who thoroughly enjoyed this house, its layout, its view, and its cleanliness and handy kitchenware. We were also impressed with the personal service from Allison who helped with the WiFi and disposal issue. We have vacationed for 40 years and this may have been our best! Thank you so much!

The house was very nice and an excellent place to stay right on the beach. One thing to be aware of that’s not really mentioned is that this rental only has a charcoal grill for outside cooking, which can be difficult to cook for large groups. Other than that, I highly recommend and would stay here again in the future.

Awesome, Fabulous, Exceptional - the house, the view, the cleanliness, the mgmt service - everything was sooooo great and we thoroughly enjoyed our vacation here. Would absolutely recommend to all.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed in a bunch of rental properties in the Gulf and this one was one of the best! The house layout was perfect and super close, very short walk to the beach. The beds were very comfortable especially the master king bed which makes a big difference in a rental house! My kids fished everyday right off the beach and caught so many different kinds of fish! My only recommendation is to go through the kitchen at the end of the busy season and replace what needs to be replaced as there were no potholders for example. For the most part the kitchen was stocked nicely. I would definitely rent this house again!

We enjoyed our stay at blessings in the sand. It has a very well stocked kitchen for cooking. We had 8 adults and 2 dogs and did not feel cramped in the house. There was plenty of seating for all of us in the living room and at the kitchen table. The only complaints are that the queen bed in the bunk room needs to be replaced. When 2 people lay down in it the bed collapses in the middle so that both people and up rolling to the middle. Also the shower head in the king bedroom with the tub shower did not work. So you could only take a bath and not a shower in that bathroom.

The house was clean and orderly if there was any shortcomings it would had to be that the unit is outdated as far as the interior but everything worked properly and was very comfortable. We only wish we could have stayed longer
