This was the perfect house for our visit - not too far from the highest leading into Gulf Shores, but more importantly on the beach and LOTS of parking. I’ve always had parking issues when booking for large groups - why rent a space that sleeps more than 10 but room for only one car?! This place had more than enough parking!! Very pleased. Would highly recommend!

Love the beach and ocean side access. This beach house allowed us to fully be together in a safe and beautiful location.

The location of this house is great. Beach access is also a plus. It was very comfortable for our large family group. Plenty of room to hangout.
5.0
Perfect location for a large family. The beach is not crowded and a nice little sandy area in the back of the house for littles to play safely
4.0
Location was perfect! Private beach access. Beautiful white sandy beach. The house was nice as the pictures reflected. The only issues we came across were some cockroaches (typical humid beach stuff), the house cleanliness wasn’t great and we had no garbage bags upon arrival. Otherwise, it was good!
5.0
We really enjoyed the property which had ample space for 5 different families that stayed! Maybe just having some shades in the penthouse bedroom would be the only critique I would have…. But otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed and would return back there for another vacation again.

Overall we were satisfied with the property. The beds were comfortable, and we had enough space for our family of 17. The house is old and could use some maintenance but it was okay with us. But the best draw was the location. It was perfect.

Commercial Ice Machine, Huge Family Table & On the Beach
My group of friends from college try to get back together at least once a year for a trip. This house could not have been a better fit for us, and honestly, I think we will go back. There were 13 of us, and we had PLENTY of space and sleeping space. The house has some wear and tear, but it was very comfortable for the group. The property owner was incredibly helpful before, during and after our stay. The commercial ice machine was CLUTCH. We loved the huge family table off the kitchen, and of course, it’s right on the beach. 10/10 booking this house!
5.0
We had a big group of people come and stay at this property for a vacation and it was perfect for our needs. The house is plenty big and is averagely clean. As college students, this didn’t bother us at all!
Samuel was extraordinary and so helpful and kind. I would rate him a 12/10 if I could.
The location of the house was great and exactly as shown in the pictures.
My two complaints (which didn’t dampen our experience at all) was that 1. the outlets were weak and made charging cell phones slow and 2. there was a lack of curtains in the bedrooms so we tended to wake up early.
Overall, we had a blast! Thank you Sam!!

First of all, the owner/manager, Sam, is excellent in communication and making sure you have what you need. Accommodating and helpful, he is a gem. He even called after we left to see if there was anything that needed his attention.
We loved the location of this house...surrounded by other houses on the beach, we enjoyed a relaxing trip, leaving only to pick up fresh fish and shrimp at the nearby fish market. The beach was never crowded, and with 13 of us in the house, the house didn't feel crowded either!
The house isn't exquisitely appointed - and you can see that from the pictures. So don't go in expecting perfection or something different... just enjoy what you came for: the beautiful beach and the time with those you're vacationing with. Unfortunately the deck off the 3rd floor was under renovation, and a fraternity had left the day before we arrived and had really done a number on the place (neighbors had some stories), which is why I rated a little lower on the cleanliness - the cleaning crew had their hands full and just not enough time. The owner assured us those items were just a timing issue and honestly, after we got past that and moved into vacation mode, our enjoyment of our trip outweighed those issues.
Sam challenged us to empty the ice maker, and with four coolers and daily usage - and making homemade ice cream twice - we could not do it. We gave it our best, but that industrial ice maker was just too efficient!
In the end, we would come back to Chivas by the Sea - it was plenty large enough for the 13 of us, and we thoroughly enjoyed walking out the back door and onto the beach seamlessly. So will you!

We're now spoiled for houses on the beach instead of condos!

Incredible Gulf Shores Experience!
Myself and 19 friends had an absolute blast here. I agree with many other reviewers in that the pictures absolutely do not do this property justice. Very spacious and an incredible view of the beach, not to mention the accessibility to the beach. The owner is very responsive and gave some great nearby restaurant recommendations. Stopped by on our second day and we had a great conversation. Owner did warn me that they kicked out some previous renters for being way too loud and causing property damage. Not a place to throw massive parties, but if you’re looking for a very relaxed stay in Gulf Shores I highly recommend.

Excellent Experience
As stated in the other reviews, the pictures do not do this place justice. It is very spacious with more than enough room for 20 people. The house is located right on the beach which is part of what made our experience so great. Beth, the owners daughter, was also wonderful. She made the check-in and out process very simple and made herself available if we had any issues. 10/10 recomend!

New Year's Getaway
First Class is really first class. Amazing location. Beautiful beach with both sunrise and sunset. Our two families enjoyed our time here. Plenty of space, great kitchen amenities, and great communication with the owner.

This place was much larger than the photos indicated. Our group of 7 adults and 5 littles all fit comfortably with room to spare in the open concept living room/dining room. We were thrilled we could all sit at one table! The appliances worked great and our cooking family appreciated the well- stocked kitchen with all the cutlery, cookware, flatware and dinnerware. The 3 decks and the location on the beach made it a perfect retreat while still being relatively central. There was a backyard with a volleyball net that made for lots of good outside time for the kids while being close to the large back deck. Sam the Owner was very gracious and made sure everything was in order on our arrival. He was full of information and gave us a lot of local pointers that you just don’t get with a corporate property manager. I don’t believe the property advertised a grill, but there are two small ones on the property. The only minor annoyance (which Sam warned us about) was the constant parade of people passing along the sides and through the backyard to access the beach. Permanent fencing along the sides would be helpful. Overall, the group rated Chivas By the Sea an “A”! Thank you for the great memories!

Lots of Room
The property was very roomy, no one was on top of each other. The bedrooms were also spread out. We did have issues with the towels - they smelled like smoke. Once washed they were better. The place does need some cosmetic fixes and updating. The owner was easy to work with and we did have a great time.

Beautiful house with amazing views
Annual family vacation with this being our first time renting a house. Definitely won’t be the last. Thank you so much Sam and Elizabeth for sharing this beautiful home with our family, we had an awesome time, The view was amazing. Plenty of space for our group of 15, and the ice machine was a great plus. We certainly hope this is available for us next year!!

Great Location, Perfect View!
This beach house was perfect for my friends and I during the 4th of July weekend! It was the perfect amount of space, plenty of restrooms and a large deck! It was so nice to be right on the beach. We would just walk up to the house for anything needed. This house is located very close to the Hangout and only a 7 minute drive from Rouse’s! It even had an ICE MACHINE! Which was definitely a life saver for all of the ice chest

Retirement celebration
My husband retired and we planned a family get away to celebrate. Sams house, Chivas by the Sea was about as perfect as it could be. This beach house is beautiful, and comfortable. Sam was so easy to work with and helpful. We could not say a negative thing about it. It was a magical stay for my husband, kids and grandchildren. Loved every minute!
