50 Shades of Blue

50 Shades was better than 5 star!! The pool was perfect for the children and the heated feature was the icing on the cake! My children enjoyed the beach very much via the convenient access point, within walking distance! The home was very clean! Great experience! The home was perfect for the whole family. Harris Vacations knocked it out of the park from start to finish! Highly recommend!

Home was clean and perfectly sized for a group of 5 adults and a toddler. Pool is small, but again perfect size for a small group and all we needed. Very close walk to the beach and the beach access has a bathroom so that was a nice bonus. House has a nice newly built deck and kitchen was well stocked with cooking essentials. The only issue we had was with the keypad. The number 9 sticks and we did have a few times we were afraid we might exceed our attempts and get locked out but fortunately that didn’t happen. Overall we enjoyed the home and would definitely stay here again.

We had a fantastic time. Wish we could have stayed longer. We came down to spend the week before school starts back up to relax & unwind before everyone’s schedule gets crazy. Thank you so much for such a beautiful property & great time. Suggestion- maybe keep some board games handy in case of rain. It only rained for about 40 minutes during our trip but everyone was searching for things to do.

The weekend was perfect. We sat on the deck, drank wine and coffee while catching up on lost time. There is a nice view of the Gulf from there. We walked to the beach the next day which was a short walk. The beach was not crowded due to the fact that there are no high rises near. Numerous restaurants are very close and we spent one day at Gulf Shores State Park on e-bikes. Great accommodations, location and the entire booking process was super easy.

50 Shades of Blue was the perfect home for us in Sept 2023. From the initial reservation through the checkout process, we were provided top communication. The home is comfortable and convenient. It was peaceful and comfy and right across the beach! Beautifully decorated, ample parking and walkable to all the sites of Gulf Shores. Within minutes of grocery, ice cream and restaurants. Every amenity: coffee makers, ice makers, great WIFI, TV, amazing front and back porches and even floats and a board for the ocean! To improve on future guests stays, I would recommend blackout curtains in bedrooms. With particular attention to the back right side bedroom which the door had no coverings on...we could not use at all due to the bright lights even at night. Two other suggestions: improve the cookware for guests as the pans are very worn and tired...and hard to clean. Additionally there is a safety issue with the lighting on the stairs at night. Not sure how to rectify this but one light is not enough when going down the numerous stairs.

Every amenity: coffee makers, ice makers, great WIFI, TV, amazing front and back porches and even floats and a board for the ocean! Great room sizes with a king, a queen and two twins. Porch chairs, washer/dryer. To improve on future guests stays, recommend blackout curtains (or light blocking shades) in bedrooms. With particular attention to the back right side bedroom which the exterior door had no coverings on...we could not use at all due to the bright lights even at night and privacy issues from back facing neighbors. Upgrade the cookware for guests as the pans are very worn and tired...and hard to clean. Additionally there is a safety issue with the lighting on the stairs at night. Not sure how to rectify this but one light is not enough when going down the numerous stairs.

Nice stay, Would book again!

We loved 50 Shades of Blue! The house and private pool were great! Just a short walk to the beach and conveniently located to everything. Perfect family vacation!

We had a great experience. Harris Vacations is very attentive and makes sure everything goes as well as possible for the travelers. I would book again at any Harris Vacations managed property that met my needs.

I love this house. The pool is small but great. Very clean. FYI! There is limited pans and no spices.

Place was perfect for our family of 4. Pool was nice when couldn’t swim in the ocean or during the hot afternoons. Everything worked good in the house and we enjoyed our stay. We would stay in this location again. This was our second trip to Gulf Shores and this location was great. Easy walk to the beach.

This house was great for my family of four and my mom who also made the trip with us. I was hesitant about staying across the street from the beach at first, but the walk was very doable, even with a toddler and infant. We’d definitely stay again.

Clean and easy check in and out great location close to beach

Great location, loved the pool and the front porch! Could use some minor updating on stairs outside and furniture but nothing major. Would recommend a covering over the door in one of the back bedrooms. Overall, great property!

Property was just as described . Very clean and well stocked with needed items. Location to beach was a very short walk. Love the pool and front porch. You can see and hear the ocean from the porch . The only thing I would say to improve would be a shade/blinds on door of room with the 2 queen beds. We had to take a towel and cover this . We enjoyed our stay and will certainly book this property again ! I have also recommended it to other friends .

Property was as listed, we had a great trip!

We normally like to stay right on the beach, but this house was all one level and perfect size with a private pool. Beach access was a short walk.

Overall, my family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Location was great and heated pool worked out perfectly. Cool front came through and going to the beach really wasn’t in the cards. We loved the location and will definitely look into going again.

We enjoyed our stay!

We loved this property and all it has to offer! The proximity to the beach and local shops and restaurants is perfect for quick trips and easy access. The house was well maintained and setup for families who want to relax in the pool in between beach days. The description and instructions for property user were very well laid out and easy to understand which made checking and out very quick. We will be back soon for sure!
