This house was perfect for our golf trip. The location is great being only 10 minutes from dining and entertainment, and only another 10 minutes from there to golf courses.

The house is well maintained and the host was very communicative and responsive with answers to questions. The large main area and outdoor dining spaces were expansive and great for socializing. The elevator made it easy to move luggage to the upper floors.

We would absolutely stay here again.

Marvelous, it's like you're in the carribiean.

The set up is perfect for adult couples with bedrooms and bathrooms. Private pool, deck and beach are awesome. Exterior doors are hard (sometimes impossible) to open and close. Having to wash and fold all the towels before you leave is a hassle and the towels don't smell so clean to begin with. Leaving it to the guest to do a good job cleaning towels is not a good idea.

This is our fourth year at Morning Glory. We took one year off and went to Pigeon Forge. Everyone voted to come back here. It has everything we need for a large group, including an elevator. The staff provided good service when needed. We were able to use complimentary tickets for golf, dolphin watching, and off shore fishing. Saved a lot of money by doing so. Other than a few areas that needed attention, our stay was very enjoyable. I would recommend it to anyone who needs a 12 bedroom house on the beach.

The house was perfect for our family of 19! The beds were so comfortable and the large open family room/kitchen/dining area allowed us to ample space to spend time together. The views were beautiful from the decks. Sadly temperatures were unseasonably cold so beach and pool time was limited. Therefore it was nice to have a cozy space to be together.
The only negative was the due to the cold the pipes froze at one point and we had a leak due to a broken dishwasher once they were no longer frozen.

Morning Glory was absolutely perfect for our family vacation. There was plenty of space and comfortable furniture. All 31 of us were extremely happy with our stay. The pool was exceptional for us with the 4 little ones - well worth the extra to have it heated! And of course the view and the beach access made our stay superb! I highly recommend this house to large groups.

This was our second time staying at Morning glory. The location is perfect. We had almost the max number of people staying here and we all fit great and didn’t feel too crowded. We had a few small issues like running out of trash bags (a house this size should come with more if they are being provided) and the trash didn’t get moved to the street as we were told, but the company was very quick to remedy these situations. Many of our guests did feel that the beds were uncomfortable this year and it might be time to replace the mattresses. Overall, we love the house and the location. It is a little further away from all of the condos so you feel like you have the beach to yourselves!
Manager response on 2023-09-22 - Response from Gulf Shores Vacation Rentals, Inc
Lauren, We are happy to hear the you guys had a great time! We have since resolved the issues with trash bags and trash company! We have also talked with the owner about the beds. We hope you will give the home a try again in the future!

Great stay at Morning Glory All our needs were met and family (ages 2yr to 80yr) enjoyed everything about the house Dinnerware and all kitchen items were very adequate Only suggestion we might make is making plastic beverage ware available for , not only for pool, but also instead when there are children and teenagers visiting..all your glass beverage was beautiful but we hesitant to let young people use it
It was an amazing week and every part of house was used ..SG

Our large group of 18 adults and 2 children loved this house! All the amenities you could ask for. Pool was awesome when we weren't on the gorgeous gulf beach. Living areas were more than adequate for all of us to visit. The extra refrigerators and ice machines were also a huge plus. All cooking needs were accounted for. Had one small problem with a toilet and our rental agency was on top of it immediately. This is our 3rd year renting from Gulf Shores Vacation Rentals and they are always awesome. Highly recommend this home and rental company.

Morning Glory was the perfect size for our family Thanksgiving gathering of 20 adults and 9 children. We were all comfortable with two spacious, tastefully decorated living areas and en-suite bathrooms for everyone. The kitchen is the best equipped we’ve had in the 20+ years that we’ve been renting a holiday vacation home and the elevator made loading and unloading a breeze. We paid the additional fee to heat the pool and enjoyed it morning, afternoon and especially evening with the colorful lights. Add all that to the ideal location - close to grocery stores and oceanfront - and you have the ingredients for cherished family moments and memories.

The Morning Glory now hold a special place in our hearts. During our week stay, we made memories with our family that we will hold on to and cherish forever. The home was beautiful, comfortable and spacious. The weather was a little chilly but that didn't hold us back from enjoying the heated pool and shelling along the shores. The home was clean and the beds were comfortable. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and we can't wait to go back!

We LOVED the house. It was perfect for our family of 20 adults and 10 kids, ages two to fifteen. Great location - lots of privacy yet close enough to restaurants, shops and grocery stores. The house was very clean. Beds were comfortable, and it was nice that every bedroom had its own bathroom. There were only a few minor glitches (black door not latching correctly, grill was missing a grate), but these were taken care of almost immediately. The maintenance guy was professional and courteous. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware and dinnerware - more than enough for us. The only thing lacking was large coffee mugs for use with the Keurig (first one up got the only large coffee mug!). Plenty of room for everyone to eat at the same time. The upstairs family room was great for the older kids. There was easy access to the lagoon across the street, and it was perfect for kayaking. We would definitely recommend this house to friends, and would love to stay again in the future.

We have had our annual family vacation at Morning Glory the last 6 years. we usually have 30 to 34 family members each year. It offers a very private beach away from all the condos yet is still close enough for shopping and restaurants.

We stayed at the morning Glory on 4/24/2022 thru 4/30/2022. The house was very clean and well kept.
loved that it was stocked with lots of pots and pans. There were also beach chairs and they were well kept and of good quality.Our stay at this house was far and above my expectation.I am hoping to stay again next year. I would highly recommend the Morning Glory to anyone who wants a beautiful beach house to stay in while vacationing at Gulf Shores.

This was the BEST rental we have ever stayed in! The house was absolutely beautiful!! We had 7 families with a total of 26 people- 12 of those teenagers. There was so much space- it never felt crowded. Each bedroom had its own full bathroom and there were 2 additional powder rooms. We loved loved the 2 full fridges, numerous ice makers, 3 dishwashers and 2 sets of washers/dryers. The kids had a huge game/tv room upstairs where they could hang out away from the parents. The pool was AMAZING and we did pay for the pool to be heated since we were going down in March. It was well worth every penny!

We are trying to figure out how to get back there next year- just have to coordinate all the college/high school spring breaks :) Thank you for the best vacay ever!!

This house is great! We were here in 2016 and we were very please to see the house has been well maintained. One small item that needs improved are the exterior door locks - they just don’t work. We followed the locking procedure and the doors (except the front door on the ground level) did not lock. Other than that the house was wonderful! Great location, great open floor plan, great pool and deck, perfect beach, 12 master bedrooms... we could not be more pleased!

Rental experience Top Notch. Everyone at GSVR was very helpful and went out of their way to help us. We were able to have a walk through before our family arrived. This house is amazing. We had 28 at the house ages ranging from 17 to 85. It was important we had an elevator. Plenty of room to gather and watch SEC and BIG 10 football on the same day. The pool on the deck is great. The deck could accommodate our whole family + a few guests. There were plenty of "beach" items for all, including a Bean Bag game they provided at our request.

We rented the Morning Glory House for our biennial family reunion and first trip to Gulf Shores. The house was perfect for us. The bedroom set up allowed each couple to have their own space and private bathroom. We especially enjoyed the open floor plan with the kitchen, dining, and living areas all flowing together. The kitchen was well stocked with pans and utensils for meal preparation. We also had several dinners catered by the recommended Orange Beach Concierge Services that were fantastic. The private beach was extensive and the family enjoyed the volleyball net there. The pool was perfect for cooling down by the house. We brought our own umbrellas to provide shade around the pool. The housecleaning staff is exceptional and the house was ready to go at the check-in time. We only had one minor maintenance issue and it was taken care of within a few hours. This is a great place to make memories. We will definitely be returning!!

This house is a wonderful place for a large group. The large meeting area is big enough for everyone to gather together. It's especially accommodating for groups of other words no 'bunk beds'. The linens are much better quality than many places I've stayed. The kitchen is nicely stocked with plenty of plates, bowls, baking dishes and cookware. 2 Large refrigerators plus smaller bar refrigerators in the bar area downstairs and upstairs. Beautiful views, nice pool, and boardwalk right out to the beach. Plenty of deck chairs and beach chairs. We can't wait to gather again next year!

Morning Glory was the perfect property for our large group. The house layout was amazing, we had 28 people an it never felt crowded. This house is situated away from the condos at Orange Beach so it was quiet. We arrived just as the cleaning service left and the house was spotless. We had a small issue with the doors locking and the elevator beeping and they were addressed immediately,customer service was great! We were pleasantly surprised to see a canopy set up for us every morning and taken down every night. We would absolutely rent this property again. It was a fantastic week at the beach!

We very much enjoyed our stay. The house is beautiful! It was very clean. Crazy high ceilings. The bedrooms are great and each has its own bathroom (no need to share). Beautiful views of the ocean. Great shade space outdoors and plenty of sun space also. We loved the pool and the volleyball on the beach. The kitchen is fabulous. VERY well equipped. It’s great having 2 ice makers, 3 dishwashers, 2 full size refrigerators, a bar refrigerator for beverages, 2 stoves and 2 sinks. The upper covered deck is beautiful. I cannot say enough good things about this property. The beach is not crowded. Soooo great. We did make 2 calls with very minor issues and they responded very quickly. The only possible negative comment is that a couple windows have broken seals and need to be repaired but don’t let that stop you from renting this property.

The Morning Glory house is perfect for a large group. Its' 12 bedrooms gives everyone a hideaway from the crowd if needed. The pool is large enough for everyone to enjoy at the same time. The gulf is wonderful to frolic in - but sure hate the sand!We especially enjoy the large general area with plenty of seating inside and out for our large crowd of 35 people. The kitchen is well stocked. The location is perfect - just about a 5 minute drive to town. The two ice makers were a wonderful extra because we were constantly making 5 gallon jugs of lemonade. The only thing I would add to the kitchen is a garbage disposal - otherwise it is perfect. This was our second time renting this property and will probably do it again in two years.

For our week at the Morning Glory we had family members from ages 1 to 90. We had family members from Alaska, Colorado. Virginia, Oklahoma and Arkansas. It is so good for each bedroom to have its own bathroom. There is space to get away by yourself and lots of space to enjoy being with the large group. One of us needs a handicapped bathroom and a couple of others used the elevator to go between floors.

The large decks, swimming pool and access to the beach are wonderful.

We had a few minor problems with blinds not closing, doors not opening and slow shower drainage but nothing major. Also one of the railings on the boardwalk going down to the beach needs to be fixed.

We would definitely like to come back in a couple of years.

We traveled to Morning Glory Beach House with seven other families. It was one of the best trips that the entire family had been on together! We were a little concerned before the trip that 7 families in one house might be a little chaotic. We were soooo wrong. With the layout of the house and the amenities, it was absolutely perfect for an extra large group. The beach house had plenty of space. All of the common areas were large and had plenty of seating for the entire group. The access to the beach was perfect and we were able to leave our tent and chairs down at the beach the entire week without any problems. The location of the house, was perfect because the beach was quiet and secluded. The pool was wonderful, as well, when you wanted a break from the beach. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything you would need for a gourmet dinner. The beds were comfortable and rooms were quite spacious. We have already booked our trip for next year and absolutely can't wait to go back.
Our ONLY complaint was having to wash the towels before we left the house. It made us wonder if the group before us washed their towels and if the towels we were using were actually clean.
Manager response on 2014-07-18 - Response from Gulf Shores Vacation Rentals, Inc
"Wash soiled towels & leave them folded near laundry—fine if last loads are still washing & drying at departure." That is what we ask so that we don't have to use those thin laundry service towels and can have nicer towels for your stay. Most guests have them finishing up when the housekeepers arrive, then the housekeepers start the sheets. We check them to be sure they are clean.

26 of us (14 adults, 12 children (ages 15 - 1)) had a wonderful week in a wonderful house (Morning Glory). The house was as good, if not better, than advertised. The living areas were larger than the pictures would lead you to believe. The house was advertised to have 12 bedrooms and 12 bathroom (which it did), but did not mention the 2 half baths (one on each floor) that were there - a real bonus and pleasant surprise. The handicapped bath was a necessity for our group as was the elevator and both were perfect. Beach access was very good with the boardwalk - all ages and mobility levels were able to get to the beach with no trouble. Only criticism is living area furniture is less than sturdy and washing towels prior to departure was somewhat troublesome given a 10 a.m. checkout time.
Overall - house was wonderful, response to issues by rental agency staff was excellent, location was great. We'll be back (whenever we can schedule that many folks again - might be a few years).

We had a great stay! The house is beautiful and has wonderful views from the house and porches. The beach was not crowded at all. We had a group of 26 and it was a great house for a large group. The kitchen is really well stocked and the multiple dishwashers, ice makers, etc was really helpful.

We loved the house. Everything was just as it had been stated by Susan concerning Morning Glory. It was a beautiful home with all the amenities. I had to contact the rental service to get correct code for the house. They responded promptly with a phone call and the needed information. The house was very clean and the deck and pool area was set up to accommodate a large group. Our only complaint was a lack of towels for 34 women. Following our stay I let Susan know and she was very apologetic and said she would check on this for future stays. I would certainly recommend this house. Our ladies group plans to come back next year. We enjoyed our time on the beach and our stay in this beautiful house.

Our family enjoyed the property very much. We were only there for a short while, but the house exceeded our expectations. The layout was perfect for a family reunion, and the fact that each room had it's own bathroom made it very easy to live there.

We could not have been more pleased with our vacation rental. The house was gorgeous,even prettier than the pictures, and very functional and well laid out. Even though we had a big group, we never felt crowded. There is plenty of space in the common living areas.
We loved being far away from condo congestion and had the beach to ourselves. the house was very clean and in excellent condition. The staff responded to any questions or requests promptly, and sent detailed information to us , including a great app, prior to our arrival. This is the best vacation rental we have ever utilized.

This home was perfect for our large family. Plenty of room for everyone. The kitchen was wonderful, except that one of the dishwashers was broken and did not get repaired during our stay. However, it was amazingly well stocked with every utensil and pan imaginable. Having the pool was great for our little ones. The home was very clean and well-maintained, and they came right out to work on any problems we had. There were so man;y things to do - some went deep sea fishing and we all parasailed. We would certainly stay here again. This was one of the best homes we've ever stayed in.

Geof & Susan,
Thank you for sharing this amazing beach house with our family. We have been coming to Gulf Shores & Orange Beach for 15 years and this has been the best ever! Our family has grown over these years and this year we had a total of 29 and this house was the perfect size. You were prompt in responding to all of our needs.
We look forward to returning next year!

Absolutely AWESOME! There was plenty of room for the 30 of us. Actually would be fine with 34. I've stayed places where the actual number of people who the site says can stay there is a bit cramped. The large gathering space on the main floor was more than big enough for all of us. Next year we plan to stay longer! The kitchen was amazing with plenty of room for several cooks and very well stocked with pans, cooking utensils and dinner ware. Can't say enough good things about it! We can't wait til next year.

Our group of friends (26 adults and 5 kids) stayed the July 4th week at this absolutely perfect home on a large private beach lot. Well maintained, beautifully decorated and equipped, with professional/accessible/responsive owners/management, you won't go wrong booking this home while enjoying The beach. Pool cleaning occurred at least twice during the week. Even when we couldn't locate the foozballs, the management team brought new ones the very next day. Without hesitation, I would recommend this fabulous house (large bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms).
We will definitely rebook for 2018.

The only complaint we had about the property is the difficulty in locking the doors to the decks. The upper decks we were never concerned with. There was 1 door that we just couldn't get locked so I was concerned at night or when we were away from the house with that door being unlocked. But other than that, our overall experience was fantastic! The house was well furnished from kitchen to pool!

From age 7 months to 90 years, our international extended family of 30 could not have had a better time at Morning Glory. From fishing on the beach to making meals in the kitchen, the house fulfilled all our needs. The common areas were perfect for mingling, catching up, drinking wine, and playing games. The rooms had amazing views on both the beach and lagoon sides. Each couple had their own private getaway better than a hotel or condo. I have lived in Gulf Shores for nearly 10 years, but Morning Glory was a totally new and amazing luxury experience. We had guests from California, New England, Canada, and Hong Kong, and they were all extremely impressed with the area. I think we may have to do this again in the future because it was so perfect, even though we rarely repeat the same reunion location. The weather could not have been more accommodating in early October.

Thanks again to Geoff and Susan for your responsiveness and kindness. We will remember this experience for years to come.

We had 31 family members staying in the house and five others staying close by. There was plenty of room for all. The big family area with kitchen, eating area and seating is even nicer than the pictures show! The area downstairs provided another place to gather. We set up a corn hole tournament and a ping pong tournament for the rainy days (4 of them). Despite the bad weather we had a great time. The back yard is like being on the beach. The kids loved it.

We had a wonderful family vacation at Morning Glory in Gulf Shores. We have a very large extended family but everyone had plenty of space to spend time together or do individual activities. The kitchen easily accommodates cooking/dining for large groups and 2 stoves and 2 fridges make it a breeze. The house is beautiful, the beach is not crowded (no high rise condos nearby), and the pool/deck area is an added area to hang out. This was our second trip to Morning Glory and by far the most perfect vacation rental to handle our large group's needs. The management staff was quick to respond to our needs when we had a problem with our stove (within just a couple of hours)and quickly resolved the issue. I highly recommend Morning Glory and the Gulf Shores area for a great vacation.

Our group of 30+ family members had the best time at our recent stay at Morning Glory. The house was as wonderful as the pictures show it to be. Everyone raved about it and wants to stay there again. I can't tell you how many times someone told me how comfortable the beds were. The pool was beautiful and used by young and old. The boardwalk to the beach was nice and the house was well stocked with beach toys and games. The guys had a corn hole tournament and we cooked out under the house. There was plenty of room for all of us in the house, and the private bathrooms in each bedroom were a well-appreciated feature. The only suggestion made by anyone was that some of the bathrooms could use some hooks or additional racks to accommodate more towels. The elevator was a life saver with the luggage and for those who have a hard time with stairs. Susan was very prompt in answering any questions I had during our planning. A wonderful house and wonderful Management!

We were stuck inside due to Tropical Storm Cindy but there was plenty of room for all. Made it bareable.
Well stocked kitchen. Almost too well stock, not much room to store food.
Beds and bedding were comfortable.
Beach is great, no one around.
We had a few maintenance issues that were addressed in a timely manor. One was an electrical problem that kept reoccurring but we knew what was wrong so we fixed it. A permanent solution is needed.
Getting all the towels in the laundry was not an issue but dishes cleaned and put away is not possible. You need to be on the road by 9 due to traffic. There's no way to make breakfast, eat, clean up with 28 people. Waiting for the dishwasher is unrealisti.
You won't go wrong renting Morning Glory.

I stayed at this house with 21 other guys for my bachelor party golf weekend. There were enough beds for everyone and the house had plenty of room inside and outside for meals, games and relaxation. My only complaint would be that I think the house should have a few more beach chairs 2/3 were broken when we arrived and maybe some beach games as well. Those are TINY concerns the house was amazing 10/10w would recommend to anyone.

We took a group of 25 women to Morning Glaory for a retreat. I don't think there are enough superlatives for what we experienced. The house was just as described and prettier than the pictures could portray. We came into a spotless environment with sparkling bathrooms, stain-free carpets, and everything in working order. The views took our breath away, and there was ample outdoor seating for everyone to enjoy the setting and each other. The picnic table was perfect for breakfast out in the ocean breezes, and the bar in the kitchen was ideal for setting up a buffet line. And the beach - uncrowded, shells everywhere, idyllic. Thank you!
