Family Tides was everything we didn’t know we needed. The view and having the beach just steps from the house was such a luxury - especially with young kids. No worrying about parking, packing food, or finding restrooms because you are literally a 60 second walk from house to beach. The house was the cleanest airbnb I’ve ever stayed in! Five stars all around. Not a con, but a note to future guests with kids: bring everything. Basic cleaning supplies, TP, paper towels, laundry detergent, dishwasher pods, dish soap, etc. as they provide only the bare minimum. If you are staying more than 2-3 days you will definitely need it as there are no cleaning supplies in the house at all and being on the beach things get messy quickly. Take advantage of Gulf State Park while visiting. There is a park for kids to play at and they have free bike rentals to explore the miles of paved trails. We LOVED our trip to Gulf Shores and are eagerly looking forward to our next visit!

We absolutely loved this beautiful, spacious and very clean cottage. Just so amazing to be able to stay right on the beach. The back deck and views of the ocean, sunrises and sunsets couldn’t get any better. Hosts were great with very detailed instructions. Perfect and peaceful place that we very much enjoyed!

We decided we wanted to go with a house instead of a condo due to this being our little girls first beach trip and not knowing how well she would do and I’m so glad we did we couldn’t have picked a better place to stay very clean very friendly atmosphere

My wife and I enjoyed Family Tides. You can’t get any closer to the beach, and the house was very clean. Our only suggestion would be to change the master mattress - it’s quite lumpy.

Family Tides was a wonderful place to stay for our family vacation to Gulf Shores. The property is in a great location, not far from restaurants & entertainment while still being quiet and peaceful. The house is very clean and well stocked. The back deck and view are perfect for your time at the beach. Book Family Tides and you won’t be disappointed! Thank you for a great stay!

Family Tides is absolutely terrific. Waking up to and ending each day with that view is amazing. We had everything we needed, location was good, and the added outdoor grill for cooking was fantastic. Can’t wait to come back.

Just steps from the beach. Beautiful sunrise and sunsets from the back deck. Perfect location for long walks on the beach. The house was squeaky clean with comfortable beds. Nice open space and family friendly. Bring your fishing gear for fun surf fishing.
