Reviewer Comments: This was our second year staying at Coastal Blessings. It is a great house with plenty of room for our crew of 14\. Only a couple of minor areas that need improvement. It was very junky under the house with broken chairs,beachtoys,trash, etc. that had been left by previous guests. The property manager came by to check on us. We informed her and she said she would take care of it. She was very friendly. The only other thing is none of the outside deck lights worked. Some had no bulbs at all. Overall, we love this house and hope to come back and enjoy another vacation here! ##### Deborah C. ### 6/10 Okay #### William w. Oct 26, 2024 Liked: Check-in, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Needs maintenance We love the layout of the unit, proximity to the beach, and the dog friendly beach. The unit itself needs maintenance. The dishwasher did not clean well and pinched your fingers every time you opened the door. The sliding door was very difficult to lock. The Master bath fan was Very noisy. The bedroom fan squeaked. The oven light was out. The front right burner ran hot and the back burner was not hot. The Tub drained slow on main bed bath. No outlets in the dining room were functional. The lazy Susan is badly broken. Floors desperately needed mopped ,couch and pillows needed cleaned. Water pressure was good plenty of hot water ##### William w. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2024 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen V.

It might get booked up before we can re book! :) Our family of 9; 6 adults and 2 teens, an 11 yr old boy & a little doggy, arrived in early July and were immediately in love with this beach house. Some would mention cosmetic issues; but none bothered us enough to mention them!The location & amenities are so perfect; we overlooked all of them. This home was the first we've stayed at in years that was fully stocked with items we needed. I have been taking pans, spatulas, pitchers, etc. Not here. There was multiples of everything; including 3 coffee makers plus a single Kureg! It felt like home.The beach WAS literally steps away. Usually we have SO many wood steps then a nice hike to the beach we are on. Nope, it is right there.Perfection.We had a plumbing issue on Sunday. Before I could call, the office had texted me to see if all was good. I told her about the issue and the handy man was there quick. When that didn't help, a plumber came. All on Sunday and all QUICK, no runaround, no nonsense.Issue reared it's head again on Tuesday and the plumber was right there quick again. Issue fixed!The beds and linens are wonderful; not just your normal white sheets. Nice high count sheets. ♥Warning; the master upstairs is HIGH! If you are short, bring a stool! ;)The balcony upstairs was my favorite place. 2 high stools and a table; nice breeze. Wonderful.My family loved everything about the house, the beach and the surrounding area. We surely hope to be back again. ##### Karen V.

The beds were comfortable, but the home needs some updates and amenities. It also isn’t as well-stocked as some of the other homes we have stayed at in the area. More towels, beach chairs, games, toilet paper, trash bags, coffee paper towels, etc. goes a long way with guests. But overall we loved the place and would return again. ##### April T.

I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: 15 of us rented Coastal Blessings for 4 nights, including 7 kids. We had a blast! The location is the big seller here - steps away from the beach. No one is fighting for a spot on this beach. Several of us enjoyed snorkeling daily, and we saw dolphins, sting rays, turtles, and so many types of fish. Each morning, we enjoyed our coffee on the decks as we watched dolphins play. We really appreciated the super nice deck chairs - not the cheap ones you sometimes find at beach houses. The 5 bedrooms allowed us to spread out, and the teen grandkids especially liked the room with the bunkbeds. We were a little crowded in the kitchen trying to prepare meals, but we made it work. Although we had a few issues (with both the coffee machine and the ice maker), communication was quick and offers were made to remedy the problems. The dishwasher doesn't work great and probably needs to be replaced. The trip to Gulf Shores is about 20-25 minutes depending on traffic, but that didn't bother us at all. In fact, being out of Gulf Shores was a selling point to our family. Overall, it was a great place to stay for our family, and we look forward to returning next year. ##### Jana H.

The living/dining area was a bit smaller than it looked like o r he pics, but it was actually never an issue because the deck outside more than made up for it! The deck is what sold me on this particular house and it lived up to its expectations! And the second story deck was also great! Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen M. Jun 29, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### House was beautiful, beach was stunning. Each morning we seen lots of dolphins swimming !!! House was beautiful, beach was stunning and each morning we seen lots of dolphins swimming. Ghost crab hunting was really successful without all the crowds from the condos from in town. I'd definitely recommend staying here rather closer to town if you want less crowded and more intimate time with your family and friends. House had everything we needed. Guests left some toys, chairs games etc from prior visits so check the house before you buy anything like that. The owner obviously says it doesn't come with it but some was left. The shower pressure was good. Kitchen was well equipped. The refrigerator had a little bit of trouble keeping up so dont over load it and follow the check in directions exactly and you will be fine. Bring bug spray as bugs at night are out but definitely worth hanging out on the decks. Yes i said decks each room has access to each and plenty of space so everyone to find their own quiet spot to read or relax and enjoy the veiw! Everything was absolutely perfect. I'd definitely recommend and my family and best friends family will be back next year for sure! ##### Karen M. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Julia B. Mar 20, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Every bedroom has ocean view! We were so thrilled that all 5 bedrooms in this beach house had, not only an ocean view, but a door access to a deck! In 20+ years of renting we’d never been blessed to have a house with a layout like that. Dining table with generous proportions, well-stocked kitchen, delightful 3rd story lookout room, high-quality sturdy deck furniture, granite countertops, easy-close kitchen drawers, new sitting room furniture. Some cons were that there was some dog hair/dust on baseboards/chair rails, a few things needing replaced or in disrepair and we unfortunately found about 6 huge palmetto bugs. The property manager was very responsive and helpful; sent out pest control earlier than their next scheduled treatment. We also had an a/c problem and again, the property manager promptly arranged for repair. Also, there are several tiers of homes behind the beach houses in this area so if you’re like us and prefer more private beach space, set up your beach chairs early to establish your space; otherwise, you’ll have large groups of people from behind setting up camp for the day directly in front of your house. ##### Julia B.

There is plenty of room for all of us. This year I was disappointed in the cleanliness of the place. There was a lot of sand. I know we are at the beach, but the from the first night, we were wiping off our feet to get in the bed. There was even sand in the master closet. I found clothes from previous renters in obvious places, as well as fallen down beside the dryer. The crow's nest is a great feature. It is fun to go up and look out, but there was nothing up there to sit on so you could enjoy it for more than a minute. It got a little chilly while we were staying there but there were no extra blankets. One last thing is that the master bed and mattress creaked as you got in and out, enough so you were waking your partner. The stove was beginning to show its age in that, the right front burner cooked too hot and the back right burner cooked too low. We adjusted and managed. We love the location close to the ferry, the pet friendly beach, and outside deck. We will rent here again. ##### Pamela S. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cindy W.

Being able to walk onto the beach from the steps was just excellent! We found a few minor maintenance needs which weren't a big deal at all. While it's not opulent luxury, it feels like the beach house we thought of for our family. A great stay! ##### Jordan M.
