Incredible relaxing vacay!

We have been to Gulf Shores/Fort Morgan several times with our kids. This was the first time as empty nesters and it was perfect. The size was great and the proximity to the beach was even better. 30 steps tops!! Fort Morgan offers more privacy and less crowds. If you’re looking for a small quaint relaxing spot, this is it!

Serenity

We love this property because it is right on the beach. It has been updated and looked much better than last time we stayed.it would be nice if the sliding doors had screens so you could leave the doors open. Also it needs a deep ckean. But we love it and will definitely go back.

Easy, chill fall break

We spent a week here with our four young kids and absolutely loved it. It is a very quiet location in a secluded community. It’s about 20 minutes from the excitement of downtown Gulf Shores, but an easy drive for when we wanted to get out for good food or souvenir shopping. The house itself is nicely updated, has all the essentials and just enough space for sleeping, eating, or watching a movie. Our favorite part is you literally cannot get closer to the beach!

Rental met our basic needs

Overall the place was suitable. It definitely had a musty odor to it and could use a few hygiene updates (new shower curtain liner - pink mold present, fridge/freezer smelled of fish - more arm and hammer boxes or changed more often). The mattresses were on the firmer side but plenty of beds and pillows provided. An umbrella for the patio would be my only suggestion but maybe its not feasible. The chairs on the patio were nice and comfortable. The chairs down below were broken and cracked but we were thankful for them to have some shade.

Unbeatable beachfront getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sun Kissed East. The location couldn't be better, right on the beach and away from the busy tourist area of the Gulf Shores. Being able to bring our 11 year old dog along on our family vacation was a huge plus for us and he absolutely loved it. The deck and furniture make for a very relaxing space to hangout. The house isn't anything fancy but it suited our needs just fine. Nothing can beat that view from the master bedroom, going to bed with the sounds of the ocean and waking up to that view was amazing. The house was clean for the most part, aside from the air register under the table and floors behind/under some of the furniture, minor things. There is a strong fish odor in the fridge/freezer that could probably use a few more baking soda boxes to help out but we also realized that considering the location someone may have went fishing and needed to store their fresh fish during the stay. Staff was very friendly and more than helpful with our questions. Overall we had an amazing family vacation and will most definitely be back again.

The nicest thing about this house, it’s literally 8 wooden steps until your feet touch the sand. Inside was nice could use a few updates. Starting with the Master bedroom mattress and brighter bathroom lighting. We enjoyed our stay. We will return!ThanQ J
