It was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the beach daily. As we stayed in the house during June/July 2020, it was nice to be in a less crowded area of Gulf Shores, which still allowed for good social distancing. If you're looking for a spacious and nice location for relaxing and enjoying the beach, this fits the bill! ##### Kim Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Ruby Oct 18, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort We stayed at Princes of Tides immediately after Hurricane Michael.
