Beautiful house and amazing service

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was beautiful and clean. Stocked with everything you could need. The walk to the Gulf was short and easy. The property managers were super responsive, kind and helped with any concerns or questions we had not only for the house but for the area as well. We have never had service like they provided at any other rental! We would highly recommend this property and property managers!

We enjoyed the beach house!! Everything worked (air conditioner, dish washer, ect). Plenty of kitchen supplies for 6 adults and 3 kids. Really appreciated gate on the porches to keep the 2 year contained.

The house was casual and clean and comfortable, perfect for our family with small children. We loved the covered porches. Property manager checked in with us on the first day to see if we needed anything. We enjoyed our stay!

Another great visit

This was our second time staying at this property. We love the neighborhood, the pool, and easy access to a private beach. The house is spacious and comes with everything you need! Two decks-one for morning and one for evening, an outdoor shower so you leave allllll the sand under the house, and easy access to some sweet spots in Ft Morgan.

Yearly - Large Family Vacation

We had a wonderful time. The house is just a short walk to the beach. The house was clean and had many useful items to use while there to make it feel like home. The property manager was a joy to work with and made our stay as comfortable as possible. We had dogs with us, and the grass was full of stickers though, so that is something to be careful of. All of that being said, we will be revisiting the area!

Great vacation spot

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I have stayed in the Heritage Shores community before with my family but in a different rental. This year’s rental was noticeably better maintained and cared for. Walk out the back door and you’re a 2 minute walk down to the public access beach. Walk out the front door and you’re a minute walk from the community pools. This rental had everything we were looking for.

We’ll be back!

I highly recommend this property. The house was perfect for my extended family and me. Short walk to the beach and pools. Plenty of great places to eat, close to the house. And a short 25 min drive to Gulf Shores. There is a dollar general and small grocery store at Sassy bass within 5-10 min of the house. The house itself was plenty big for us. There were 7 adults and 3 children. And we had no problem spreading out and enjoying some quiet if we needed. The porches are amazing to sit out on anytime of day. I can’t say enough good things about the place. We had the best time!

What a nice surprise for us.Coastal View Vacations was great to answer any questions we had. Thanks for the memories.

THIS IS IT!!!

We stayed for 5 nights at the beautiful Blessings in the Sand home and we could NOT have made a better choice! This home has a remarkably well-stocked kitchen and was very clean upon checkin. It boasts two large covered porches, 4 beds and 3.5 baths. Room for three cars underneath the house and convenient to the main road. It’s one block to the beach which can ne seen from the back porch and only 1/2 block to the pool and tennis court out the front porch. Take your beach towels and have an awesome visit at the nearly empty white sand beach. The only thing in short supply was potholders but otherwise all you need is clothes and food!

Convenient, Clean and Comfortable

This roomy clean home was perfect for our grandchildren and dogs. It is a short walk to the beach. The outdoor shower has warm water! The property manager was amazing. I received a message one week out letting me know that the house code would be sent to me shortly before check in time. This was huge. A welcome message was sent shortly before our arrival. Questions and concerns were promptly answered and responded to. Great experience and we will return to this property and if it's not available, we will stay with this management group.
