Nice location
It’s not directly on the beach but the view is of the bay which is nice. The beach is a short walk across the bridge or under the bridge. I used the walking trail every morning. The house was close to restaurants and shopping but far enough away from busy parties and noises.

Until we meet again
We loved this property! We stayed in a similar 3 bedroom last year, but this 4 bedroom house was perfect! It was clean, it had everything we needed, and it’s in a quiet neighborhood. The walk to the beach is worth being away from the crowds. The walking trails and piers are so nice for morning and evening walks. My husband and kids enjoyed some fishing, my toddler loved taking an afternoon walk. Book this place, you won’t regret it!

Great location on the bay
Only problem was the door- once I found the instructions on how to lock it I was pleased. The door instructions should be further up the list instead of after the beach flag info. I spent 30 minutes on the phone with a customer service rep and putting in a maintenance request thinking the lock was broken before finally figuring it out.

This was a lovely property but the customer service was extremely poor. I've just been to too many other properties and had a much better experience. There was no personal touch or human connection.

Beautiful Home on the Lagoon
We enjoyed our two week stay at this beautiful house on the lagoon in Gulf Shores AL. The home had everything we could need and the location was perfect for us. We traveled with our dog and this home is directly on the walking path. It was a short easy walk to the beach also! We rode our bikes to town and to the State Park. Thanks so much for making our stay so comfortable. There are steps to get into the home, as there are with almost all the homes in the area.

Great property, sadly unresponsive on maintenance
This property is lovely and really well located. Unfortunately one of the pocket doors in the jack and jill bathroom was broken when we arrived and despite falling to report the issue we were never return contacted and they did not fix the issue.

Family-full
The cottage was spotless, and its design helped us keep it clean. We enjoyed ourselves immensely. I particularly enjoyed the fact that we were 13+ blocks west of the main intersection, so there were no crowds, no big stores - - just white sand beaches and families enjoying themselves on the Gulf. The cottage itself has a lovely lagoon view, and feels quiet and isolated, until you look to either side and realize how close the other cottages are. In any event, we had a great vacation and would highly recommend this specific cottage.

Great Family Vacation Place!
Plenty of room for our group of 8 to rest, eat and relax. Would definitely rent there again. Larger than almost all in the complex, so be aware when you compare. Pros - kitchen well outfitted with dishes/cookware, good beds, good seating in and out, baby gate on balcony,good washer/dryer, easy walk to beach, loved the easy parking for 4 cars! Cons - towels and toilet paper were super cheap, no blankets, zero kitchen consumables (salt/pepper, coffee filters...things I would expect) Not a big deal...would have brought from home if I'd known. I would definitely bring my own bath towels and decent toilet paper and would bring kitchen consumables if driving which we all were.

Great location, BYO cleaning supplies
We loved the unit, great size, great location! Beach was a short walk on a safe trail for the kids. The view was wonderful! Socks for fishing were used daily, great amenity. Trail behind the house was great for daily walks and bike rides. The units are close together so you’re close to your neighbor if you’re on the deck. The cushions on the dining chairs are stained and quite gross, the couches also have stains and seemed dirty. Floors were so dirty- we don’t wear shoes inside and my kids feet were black on the bottom shortly after we arrived. The bathroom showers had mold on the wall and the door. I asked to have them cleaned- we arrived Sunday- they finally came to bleach the showers on Friday- we left Saturday. Floor was never cleaned. Fridge made an odd humming noise halfway through our stay- also not fixed even though we were told the local crew would be out. Overall we were happy with the location and the unit! Just hope for a much cleaner experience.

Great location!
We stayed here for our family vacation this year and loved it! We chose not to go the high rise condo route to avoid crowded beaches and do not regret it. The short walk to the beach was easy, my kids tolerated it well, the pool area was nice, and the beach was beautiful and not crowded at all. We will recommend West Side Cottages #M to our friends and family and look forward to staying here again!

Family with teens
The house gave us all the bed space and bathrooms that we needed. We enjoyed staying there. The pool was a little crowded for the amount of people it is used for, but the pool was clean and helped cool us down on the hot days (we were there when the beach was closed due to bad rip currents and winds). The grounds were very clean and well kept, and we never heard our neighbors or had any loud interruptions.

4 bedroom condo close to beach
Our family had a wonderful time at this condo in Gulf Shores. Great 4 bedroom, 4 bath home within walking distance to beach (best way is to take the path in the back of the condo). Home has a Keurig and a regular coffee maker. It listed coffee maker on the site but specific. I didn't see an iron or ironing board in the condo. Be prepared to walk upstairs to the condo and inside the condo for the bedrooms. All 4 bedrooms with 3 bathrooms are upstairs (2 bedrooms share a Jack & Jill bathroom). The other 2 bedrooms have a private bathroom. The 4th bathroom is downstairs with a tub/shower combo. The only other suggestion I would have would be a combo entry door instead of keys to get into the condo. Overall great time and rating on this condo.

Nice Thanksgiving vacation
We really enjoyed our four nights at The Captains Landing. The view of the lagoon and the proximity to the beach was perfect. The kitchen was well equipped for our Thanksgiving meal prep. I would recommend the addition of a blanket in each bedroom closet, but the overall experience was wonderful.

Checked all the boxes
This is a very nice, new, comfortable and ideal location. It had everything we needed. The beach is so easy to get to. It has a great view of the bay. The walking paths are wonderful! Pet friendly was an absolute plus!!! Our family enjoyed it. The management team is very responsive and helpful. The furniture is very comfortable and the house isn’t over decorated with tons of clutter and all the things! I greatly appreciate this! You might consider bringing a couple extra blankets as the management company coverlets are very thin. wifi was a tad spotty at times. But overall these are only things I can think of that would help someone staying there in the future. We had a great stay and appreciated all of it.

Beautifully Amazing!!
This property completely exceeded my expectations! When you first turn into the cottage community, it is extraordinarily clean and very inviting. The house was even better! Beautifully decorated, open but allowed privacy, and the views of the bay were amazing! THe short walk to the beach was relaxing with an easy path to get there. I appreciate the extra amenity of allowing pets with a deck equipped with a gate for our fur family to enjoy the beautiful surroundings with us.
