Great place to stay!

We had a great stay with our kids at this property. The host was very good at communicating and responding right away. The location is great, right across the street from the beach and walking distance to an ice cream shop and seafood market.

Great property and experience!

Check in was simple and easy, great location and property was clean and organized. Close walk to the beach, great access to restaurants and activities. Only critique would be more toilet paper stocked and dish towels but we made it work. Thanks for the great beach trip with the family and we would definitely stay here again !

Gulf Shores getaway

Sun Baby was a perfect place for our family vacation, and even better that our dogs were welcome. The house was very clean and well equipped and we loved that it was just a short walk across the street to the beach. We also liked that it’s a short drive to all the shops and restaurants in the center of town. We’d certainly consider returning if we visit Gulf Shores again.

Convenient to the beach!

Very happy with this little bungalow. It is very close to the beach, literally across the street. So nice to have a kitchen and washer/dryer combo. Lust a quick little walk from a little market and ice cream shop. Air is cold and it is spotlessly clean.
