Cleaning Protocol

Welcome to Shipwreck Cottage! This luxurious freestanding home is one of only eight units in the adorable Eastside Cottages community, and is the perfect place for your next vacation! No crowded elevator. No crowded parking garage. No crowded pool.

The community is just one block off of the beach, with deeded beach access and a designated crosswalk. The interior of this two-bedroom, three-bath cottage features shiplap walls, fun modern coastal decor, cool & calming colors, and high-end finishes. With a built-in sleeping nook and an adorable bunk area, this property comfortably sleeps nine guests and features three full baths and a full-sized washer & dryer - no fighting over bathrooms and no going home with loads of dirty laundry!

Imagine spending the day on the beautiful white sandy beach, and then relaxing on one of two private balconies, sipping a cocktail while watching the kids get out every last ounce of energy in the community pool. Cap the evening off by preparing a delicious meal in the brand new, modern & spacious, fully-stocked kitchen. If you find that you've had enough of our beautiful beach and need a change of pace, perhaps you'll enjoy a stroll to some of our finest shopping, dining, and nightlife, as Shipwreck Cottage is within walking distance to The Hangout and so many restaurant hot spots at the "T" intersection of Hwy 59 and the beach road. Your next vacation could be this perfect. Your next vacation could be at Shipwreck Cottage!

Shipwreck Cottage
5/5 stars
Overall we enjoyed our stay at shipwreck. The house was clean when we got there. The location was great, pretty central to everything and the house was easy to get in and out of. One drawback to the house was the pool. It was quite small and could only really accommodate maybe two families comfortably. It also seemed that people who were not staying in the community would come to use the pool which made the small size of pool seem even worse. Not sure what could be done about this as I’m sure that’s hard to police. The only other issue we had is the blankets on the beds were extremely thin and we couldn’t find any extra blankets anywhere in the house. Overall it was a nice stay!

Thank you for your stay with us! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay overall. We wish you had let us know that you weren't completely satisfied though, as we always appreciate the opportunity to address any issues you have while you are still here. We would have been more than happy to bring you more blankets. And we're sad to know the pool was a drawback for you! That's actually the first time we've seen a pool classified as anything but a positive addition to vacation. Either way, we certainly understand everyone has their own personal preferences. Please reach out to us directly for your next stay so we can help you find a property that suits your needs perfectly. Thank you for your valuable feedback. We look forward to seeing you again soon!

5/5 stars
Beautiful cottage located in walking distance to the beach, stores, and restaurants. This cottage was in a perfect location! We came for a baseball tournament and other teammates stayed in the other cottages and the boys were able to play at the pool together or in the area outside the pool. The cottage was very clean and spacious. Check-in and out was so easy and done all through text messages. Prior to arrival and while staying at the Shipwreck, I received text messages from iTrip with information about our stay, special offers, important numbers, and a warning about the Gulf being closed and to please stay safe. Very happy with the condo and iTrip!

The Cottage was convenient to lots of restaurants, shops and the beach. The cottage was clean and comfortable. A few minor issues like a toilet seat needed repair and some kitchen supplies weren’t very clean. My elderly Mother had trouble with the stairs but we knew in advance there were stairs. We would stay again!

Enjoyed the stay tremendously. Convenient to beach and the town. Kids had a great time, especially at the pool. Facility very clean. Door handle on the front door needs a little work. Hard to close and open. Otherwise everything OK.

We enjoyed our stay at Shipwreck Cottage! The cottage was sparkling clean and nicely stocked with everything we needed in the kitchen. The pool was beautiful. It's about a 10-15 minute walk to the beach, so we appreciated that a beach cart was provided. We also liked the reserved parking (for 2 cars) under the cottage. There are lots of stairs in this cottage, so be prepared for that. Stairs didn't bother us, but it could be an issue for small children or elderly guests. The two balconies were perfect for enjoying the coastal breeze as we read in the evenings. Management was very responsive when we notified them the ice maker was not working. They had it repaired within 24 hours. Two (minor) downsides: While the king beds are very comfortable, the twin beds are very, very hard, even for children. We had to buy egg carton mattress toppers for use during the trip so we could sleep. The only other thing we noticed is that this unit does not have an outdoor grill and there are no shared grills in the complex. Nearby cottages had charcoal grills provided by owners for guest use. We really missed being able to grill. Other than those 2 minor details, we were very happy with our stay at Shipwreck Cottage! It's a beautiful place for a family vacation.

We stayed at the Shipwreck Cottage C for a full week and enjoyed every minute of it. We have been down to Gulf Shores and the surrounding area many times staying at numerous different locations. We found this to be the best setup for us (5 adults & two grand kids). The cottage is obviously pretty new and was very clean, bright inside, roomy for all and very accommodating for all our needs. Location was great as we didn't need to be right on the beach at this time of the year. Beds and bunks were very nice as were the three bathrooms. Swimming pool is not heated but we didn't expect it to be in Dec./Jan. We are looking forward to next year - same time same place but with an additional siblings family. Will probably look at renting two cottages next year. Property management was easy to work with and checked in on us once we arrived. Didn't need them for anything else as all went well. These accommodations helped make for an outstanding trip! Gary L.

We had a wonderful time. The unit is very spacious. I loved having a huge covered parking right under the house It was great not having to get in a hot car. And not having to search for a parking spot. It was wonderful walking to restraunts and the store. We could have easily parked our car upon arrival and not driven again for our stay. Lots of things in walking distance. The beds were very comfortable. The decor was very beachy. Everything was brand new and kitchen had everything we needed for our stay. It was very nice having a pool. We had the pool to ourselves!!

Basically brand new. Nicely appointed. Near the beach but a few block walk. Not a big deal. Bonus you walk next to a store before the beach where you can by beach stuff, food, beverages etc...very handy. Bring beach towels. They have a great wagon to haul your stuff to and from the beach.
