You couldn’t ask for a better location, all you do is cross the street and you’re on the beach. Beds were super comfy and everything in the house is updated. Kids LOVED the private pool. House had all the floats, beach chairs, a cooler, a pop up shade tent. There was nothing you had to bring for a day at the beach or by the pool. No doubt we will book here again.

This is an easy review...everything was great about the rental. I don't have a single complaint. Location, private pool, condition of the rental inside and out. 4 adults and 3 teenage boys and there was plenty of room for everyone. View was amazing as there were no obstructions of the gulf. In the kitchen the appliances were modern and up to date. Kitchen supplies were plentiful from plates to glasss for all types of beverages. (and everything was part of a matching set!). Furniture and beds were comfortable and in great condition. This will be the first property I will see if available for our next visit to Gulf Shores.

1st time to stay in a house vs. a condo. Great space and a great location. Literally across the street and the view from the porch was perfect/no obstruction. Although the dryer was pretty loud.....it was a great feature and wasn’t a real bother since we were mostly outside. The kids loved the loft even though the steps were a bit steep..with 2 queen beds, we had adult sleep upstairs with them and pushed the seat to block the steps at night. The pool was a life saver as the kids loved it and we had double red flags all week. Would recommend and would stay again in a heart beat.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Fins Up. When we first arrived the air was not working and the house felt like 110 degrees. So I called and she told us to allow the unit a couple hours to cool off. So we waited 2 hours, still no cooling. We called back and she had someone come out promptly. The unit was overheated. So the guy fixed it and we had cool air! Felt great! Had another air issue the 3rd day of our stay but he same guy came out and apologized and completed his fix. The house was clean, beachy feel! Across the street from the beach, and the kids LOVED the private pool! Will definitely stay here again. The manager responded quickly! Thanks fins up!

We stayed a week at Finns up in Gulf Shores. Itrips was great to work with on the initial booking deposit and follow ups for balance due, check in/out information emails as well as discount offers for activities. The property was well maintained and the only issue we had was the pool light going out. They were prompt in contacting the owner and addressing the issue. The home was beautiful and perfect for our family of 8 with 4 adults and three teens. The only thing I would recommend would be a refrigerator with ice/water dispenser. We will be back some day I hope!!

We had another vacation scheduled that was cancelled due to this crazy virus but needed the getaway. I booked this house last minute and I'm so glad I did! It was a PERFECT place to relax and lose a little stress. My only regret is that I couldn't bring my whole family with me. Just my husband and I in this huge place but it was more than expected.

Our family really enjoyed staying here. It was very clean, had plenty of kitchen ware. The beach was within a very short walking distance. I really enjoyed sitting on the covered porch drinking my tea and watching the waves on the beach. Great location calm end of town, yet short distance to stores and quiet area. We didnt get to use the pool as it was cooler out when we came but was clean and had nice lounge chairs to lay on.

We arrived Sunday evening at Fins Up and the air conditioner was not working properly. We called about 7:00 Sunday night and the rental company had someone there within the hour and got it fixed. Fast response and very much appreciated. We loved the salt water pool, the house was well maintained. Very convenient location though it was not on the beach. A walkover to the beach was just across the street. We had a family member to get sick while we were there so we pulled out and headed home on the second day there. We had the rental for 6 days but unfortunately did not get to use the full time. I will definitely try to get the house next year if I can. Rental company was very nice to work with so I would definitely do business with them again. Thanks for all you did to make our stay enjoyable.

We rented Fins Up over the July 4th holiday. The house is awesome with everything you could ever need for the beach. Speaking of the beach, it's just across the road. We stayed with our 13 year an 9 year old grandkids and their parents. We all had our own room and the living and dining room were fantastic. The furniture is very nice and the beds were so comfortable. There were several local places to eat not far away and a great place to buy fresh seafood just down the street. We probably wouldn't go over a holiday weekend again but other than that, we had a blast. Our family especially loved having our own pool! That was probably the highlight of the stay. Definitely would go again. Management was great to work with. Couple of quirky issues with the ac but they sent someone out immediately (even on a holiday). Can't say enough great things about Fins Up!

I work at an award winning hotel so I know how things should be and this place was SPOTLESS! Exactly as nice as the pictures! We enjoyed everything about this house, especially the big front porch, close beach access, and outdoor pool! Having a washer and dryer was very nice too! The kitchen has everything you need as well- even Tupperware to store your leftovers in! There are spouts in the garage to wash off after coming from the beach which was nice. The one thing I will mention is that the door from the master to the back porch is tough to close- don't know if that can be fixed or not. Also the paring knives were dull. We had such a blast and even met the neighbor and became close with him too!

The kitchen is very well stocked with utensils, pots, dishes etc. The view off the front porch is AWESOME. We spent lots of time on the porch watching the beach. It was so nice to spend the mornings on the beach and then the afternoons at the private pool. We had one of our most enjoyable and relaxing vacations in years. Great local restaurants that we enjoyed each evening. Local shopping was convenient and made it easy to keep us in stock for the week. We will DEFINITELY be back next year.

I could've sat all day and looked at the view of the ocean from the front porch swing. Also couldn't have asked for anything better than having our own private pool! Every time we called the staff about an issue we had (little things like the wifi quit or couldn't find the breaker box because the washing machine breaker tripped) they always answered and were more than happy to help. My family and I will definitely be back!!

Fins Up is the cutest beach house and it actually looks like it does in the pictures! Great view of the ocean sitting on the front porch and having a private pool was the best! Everything was very clean and the decor was great. Kitchen was stocked with good pots and pans, just bring all your tp, paper towels, detergents and so on. Can't wait to visit again!

Let me first say I am very picky. This house met or exceeded all of our expectations. Very easy access to the beach right across 2 lane road that dead ends several miles down so traffic was not bad. Unobstructed view of the ocean from the covered front porch. Our kids absolutely loved the loft with cozy beds and large TV. Very spacious open floor plan and very clean. Only 2 miles to shopping and the popular restaurants. In my opinion, the pictures do not do the pool justice. I was a little concerned about the feel of the small fenced in area. Well it turned out to be great! The pool is very large and very clean and plenty of room to hang out and play - fantastic! If you want to nitpick, there are a few items such as the coffee pot, downstairs bedroom TVs, and the noisy twin beds that could be improved but nothing detracted from our wonderful stay. The only bad thing was how sad we were when we had to leave. I definitely recommend this house and I would rent it again.

Our stay was a family vacation and the house was awesome! The room was clean and had so much space. The private pool was great and loved the front and back decks. Loved that it was right across the road from the beach and the beach was never crowded. Not a far drive to restaurants or shopping. We will definitely be returning!

Can't say enough about this house! When we arrived it was very clean and inviting. The bedrooms have plenty of closet space and are even nicer than pictured. The kitchen is filled with all of the items you'll need to prepare any type of meal. Only thing I would say is that you may want to bring your own sharp knife if you'll be doing a lot of cutting in your cooking prep, as theirs were pretty dull. Also, they did not have very many tupperware containers so we just used ziplocks that we brought with us. The house also has a charcoal grill which we used frequently. Beach entry is directly across the street and we set up our tent and chairs upon arrival and were able to keep them up night and day all week without anyone bothering or taking our items... most people did the same. The salt water pool was a fantastic amenity and there was plenty of chairs and pool room for the 9 people in our party. There is not any shade at the pool but if you bring a beach umbrella, you can attach it to the fence for a small bit of relief. We had excellent service from the folks at itrip as well. There were a couple minor issues that popped up with a toilet handle and bed rails, and they were there to fix things within the hour both times. This house is also very close to a small liquor/grocery store for quick odds and ends, a fantastic seafood store, and only a couple miles from the heart of Gulf Shores (restaurants, shops, Walmart, public beaches, pier, etc). I would highly recommend this house to anyone!!

The house was very well organized and beautifully decorated. My family felt right at home. With the beach right across the street not to mention the pool within a few steps out the back door and fine dining within a few miles. We will definitely be back!

This is a beautiful house with an unobstructed gulf view, private salt water pool & great location close to eating & activities. Huge living room, big covered porch, all kid safe with safety rails everywhere. This is our 2nd year in a row, & we will be back. Bring all your spices, condiments, toilet paper, dishwashing soap, etc. There is no shade over the pool so bring plenty of umbrellas.

the house is great and not having to share the pool was the best feature since spending all day at the beach and all evening at the pool wears you down. by the second day my daughter was asking when we were going home ( speaking of the Fins Up house ) . you can see and hear the waves crash on the shoreline from the front patio. one of few house that has a beach view that are not on the beach. House was very clean and stocked with really nice pans and dishes, not "budget-ware". the hammock in the pictures is no longer there and the phone was MIa also. But that was nice since we really didn't want to return any phone calls, but had an emergency come up it would have been nice to have. there are child locks on the pool gate and the decks though the ones on the deck face so that it is easy for the kids to get out, they have a locking function but no key was provided. If they were facing the opposite direction it would give more peace of mind to those of us with special need children. And make it easier when coming up the stairs with groceries. the master bath leaks water on to the floor because the house has unblievable water pressure and the water finds its way around the curtain. the drain for the Hvac unit could be rerouted so that water does not build up on the walkway - it stays slippery and the kids fell on it twice. also Hvac unit never shut off even though i completely turned the unit off ... better cold than hot i suppose. These are all minor details and i plan on coming back to stay again very soon at Fins Up. the location is awesome and the staff answered the phone everytime i called with a question. and were extremely friendly

This house was Perfect! Everything you needed was provided in the kitchen and it is decorated so cute!! The decks were great. You could sit on front deck and hear and see the waves at the beach and feel the breeze! The pool was awesome and big enough for several people at one time!! Close enough for shopping and dining. We will definitely be back!
