Wonderful location, ample rooms, great beach and pool access. Quiet at night. We stayed for an entire week and wished we could've stayed longer!

We love this house, this year was our 4th week renting it. It is so spacious and so close to the beach. It is perfect for a week with the kids and a week with the friends.

Harris Vacations was wonderful to work with. Superior communication, very responsive to requests and issues. The smoke alarm started going off because it needed a battery - they were out there to change it very quickly. The house was missing a broom - they brought one the same afternoon. We stayed at A Gift from the Sea, a lovely home, perfect for our group with plenty of games, books, and room to play. Easy walk to the beach and right across the street from one of the community pools. We hope to go back very soon!

We had an amazing trip!! This house is sitting right in front of the pool area and the board walk to the beach is just a minute away. The house was so spacious. We spent most of our time in the kitchen which came equipped with all the necessary cookware. I have a huge family and the dining room table was perfect. We played board games that came with the house. We watched movies. The beds are super comfy. We will be booking this house next year.

We recently stayed at the Gift of Sea - Morgantown Community in Gulf Shores, AL; the house was amazing! Accommodated our entire family and our fur babies! I really liked that it was walking distance to the beach. We will definitely go back!

Wonderful home in a fantastic neighborhood. Location was perfect in that neighborhood too. Quick walk to the beach, one pool right in front of the house with the other one not far away. Host was very responsive and communicative if we had any questions or issues. Really enjoyed our stay!! It was perfect for our 2 families with 4 kids each.

Excellent location, price, and hospitality! Two families of friends stayed and enjoyed the pool, beach, sunrises, and sunsets all within walking distance. We stayed at "A Gift from the Sea" and had plenty of space to enjoy ourselves. The staff at Harris Vacations was incredibly responsive, but not intrusive. Would recommend to anyone.

A gift from the sea was beautiful! It was closer to the beach than we thought! The home was spacious enough for my family of 10 and my parents even joined us for 2 nights! Few maintenance issues need addressed. Home could use some new blinds and such. We will definitely be choosing Harris Vacations for our future trips! Thank you!

I was impressed by how much space this home had as well as plenty of furniture to accommodate everyone.

It was just that. We stayed 2 weeks, 1 week with family 1 week with friends and it was perfect. The house was the perfect size. We had 8 both weeks, including another family who had their own house so 14 most of the time hanging out. We go every year and I'm hoping this can be our "forever" vacation home 😉

We had a wonderful stay at A Gift From the Sea! We comfortably fit 9 people and didn’t even use the bunk room. You could sit on the porch and watch the kids swim at the pool across the street and the walk to the beach was as easy as it gets for a non-beachfront home. It was a great stay with Harris and I would definitely book with them again!

We have stayed in many beach houses in Morgantown and this one I think is our favorite yet! Very close to the boardwalk and so close to one of the pools you can sit on the front porch and see the kids swimming. Plenty of sitting area in the living room and huge beautiful table with benches for lots of people! Kids love the bunkbed area and they are big and sturdy enough for big teenage boys. Well stocked in kitchen for cooking. Had a cabinet that had games in it the kids found. Beaches are beautiful and never really packed, and we have seen a turtle going to lay eggs, someone catch a shark, dolphins and seen lots of crabs to catch at night with the kids over the years there! Perfect home away from home to spend quality time with a large group of people in Morgantown!!!

Great house and plenty of room for our group! It was close to the beach and easy walking. The beach was very crowded but still enjoyed. We were right across the street from one of the pools. So that was also nice. We enjoyed walking and riding bikes in the neighborhood. We would like to stay here again.

It was a easy process to book a stay at the house in Morgantown on Fort Morgan Road. Everything was contactless. Key codes were provided. It was like being in a small coastal village. We had a short walk to beach and it was doable. Kiva Dunes golf course was close by. Sassy Bass and Tacky Jacks restaurant were convenient. And the Sassy Bass Market for other essentials was close by. Of course the 4th of July week was crowded and there were lots of beach goers. But that is not always the case if you choose other times.I would advise booking early to get the type house you want. The closer to the beach the better. On the beach is the best. We had just a few little issues and Harris Realty was quick to resolve. One was an internet issue and the other a loose railing issue. Both were handled in less than 24 hours. The internet issue was resolved within hours. Harris Realty is very renter friendly and helpful.

The place was very nice and clean when we arrived. It was very spacious and we had plenty of room. Furniture/beds were comfortable. Great location to the pool and the beach. It was only two houses down from the boardwalk leading to the beach. Harris rentals had good communication/instructions before arrival. We had no issues and would stay there again.
