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.

Reviewed on 2021-06-29 by , Arkadelphia , AR United StatesThe 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.

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.
