Great trip!

Beautiful home and worked great for our group of 7 families. Every room has an en-suite bathroom which was the perfect setup.

This house is perfect for large family gatherings. Multiple ovens, dishwashers & refrigerators allowed for ease of food storage, prep & cleaning. We will definitely be back.

The house was beautiful! Each bedroom had its own bathroom, which worked out great. Two refrigerators, two ovens and an ice maker. It was right on the beach!

This is the perfect spot if you’re looking to come to Gulf Shores! The house is amazing and spacious, had everything we needed and more! Location was our favorite part, literally walk out of the back door right onto the beach! Definitely plan on returning!

A friend of mine and I stayed here with 6 kids. It was the perfect property for us. They loved the pool and the elevator (like another reviewer said- kids should only ride on it with an adult as it is easy to get stuck on). The house was clean and beautiful. We would absolutely stay here again. The little soap/shampoo boxes were a nice touch. We also utilized the multiple washer and dryers on each floor.

Pros: House was clean, layout was perfect with balcony access from most of the bedrooms and having a full-sized icemaker was a game changer. Cons: Pool was smaller, and not as warm as expected. Main family room floor leading to the balcony was soft and felt warped in spots when you went to step out onto the balcony. Neither of these things would keep us from booking this house. Excellent communication and very seamless experience. Highly recommend Somewhere in Sand 1

Perfect house for multiple families wanting to get together! Great layout!!! Very spacious. Lots of seating for meal times. Every bedroom has a bathroom. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes for large groups. The two fridge/freezers and ice maker were excellent. Conveniently located. Property mgmt communication was great prior to arrival and checked in on us after arrival.

Our trip started off a little rocky but the staff got everything top notch. The layout and beauty of this house was perfect! The views were exceptional! Our family enjoyed out time together, walking on the beach, swimming in the pool, and the kitchen was perfect for feeding our large family! We are planning our next stay!

The house was as advertised. Plenty of room for 15 adults! It was well equipped and the extra ice maker was a bonus. Somewhere in Sand 1 is a beautiful home on a gorgeous stretch of beach. I highly recommend!

This house, Somewhere In Sand 1, is awesome!! There was plenty of room for our family of twelve. The house sits right on the beach so it’s very convenient. Great gulf views from every floor. The pool is great for kids. Property owners/managers were very attentive to our needs. We will definitely consider staying here again!

The property is beautiful and right on the beach, the property management company was on top of maintenance requests. The home is very roomy with great accommodations for our large family. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking essentials. The only issue we had was with the elevator, I understand that it is not a commercial elevator, but it is very confusing to figure out how to operate. Do not allow your children to use it alone, as we had one of ours get stuck in it. All in all, it was a fantastic stay!

This house was by far the best house that we had stayed in for our family vacations. We have a large family and it easily accommodated everyone with plenty of space to just hang out. We loved that there’s a washer a dryer on multiple levels and that each bedroom have their own private bath. The best part was the pool for the kids to swim in and that we can just walk down to the beach to enjoy the water. I definitely have spent many hours on the beach! Overall, we all had a great time! We’re currently looking forward to next year’s trip and has started looking for other rentals by Harris Vacations!

This property was the best property for our family! Everyone enjoyed their stay and no one was on top of one another. We’re very thankful we were able to find a home that’ll hold our size family! We’ve already discussed next year’s trip with this same company.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Management reached out numerous times checking on everything and resolving any issues that arose. Great location with great access to the beach! Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful home right on the beach. Perfect for a large group!

It was a great vacation! We were there during Spring Break but it was a quiet location, never had any problems. The house is big and spacious but still had enough space to decompress by yourself at the end of the day. We wished that the elevator went to the 3rd floor but that is just a minor inconvenience. We really enjoyed the heated pool at the end of the day to relax, watch the sunset and listen to the waves. The locals are super friendly, plenty of places to shop and explore! I would recommend this place to everyone! We are looking forward to coming back next year!

We stayed in Somewhere in the Sand 1 and it was perfect. Harris exceeded our expectations and the house was exactly what we needed for our family.

Somewhere in the Sand 1 is an amazing beach home! The proximity to the beach is unbeatable. The house has everything you need to have a perfect vacation. The pool on the deck is very well done and just the right size for kids (or adults) who want to escape the sun for a bit and cool off. The rooms with bunk beds are a nice feature for families and our children really enjoyed bunking together. The whole ride home was spent talking about when we can go back and how much fun was had. Thank you for a great time and experience Harris Vacation Rentals!
