Read this before you book!!!
I have used VRBO to book our MANY family vacations for over 6 years now. I have never had a bad experience, nor gave a bad review until now. This property is managed by Vacasa. Upon arrival, the first thing we noticed is how close you are to the water. This little island is beautiful and we were so excited! As we carried our luggage up the stairs we were greeted by 2 large Palmetto Cockroaches. Because the were outside we initially brushed it off. Entering the property it was okay, furniture in the living room needs a MAJOR upgrade as does the Mattress in both of the rooms that lead out onto the deck. Kitchen is minimally stocked. The home had a weird musty smell. At the time I felt the location and views made up for it.... until we started seeing german cockroaches- In all areas of the home. As we inspected further we noticed mold, possibly black mold, coming out of the vents in the bedroom. Water damage was noted on the return air vent right near the washer/dryer area. The washer had mold as well and needs to be DEEP cleaned asap! Our internet was out several times we were there. Most of the lights(lamps) and TVs were unplugged when we arrived which was odd. The bed frame is one room is broken- we ended up sleeping on an air mattress. The stairs leading to the beach are seriously scary. They need repair asap. The are not propertly installed and are on the verge of failure. This place needs some major TLC. We packed up with our infant 2 days after arriving.

Great stay on the beach
It was a wonderful stay. The cushioned chairs on the deck and powered leather recliners in the house were so comfortable. The view was awesome, seeing dolphins right off the shore and watching the pelicans dive for fish.

Grandkid adventure
This house was beautiful with an amazing view ! It was our first trip to the island and loved everything about it ! The house was comfortable and accommodated our group of 12! The porch was great , well furnished and locked ! The grandkids had a blast ! We do feel the house had a few maintenance issues ,the rusted out of commission outdoor shower( had old water hose) squeaking bunk beds, no working blender or scissors and the need for serving bowels for 12 but overall it was probably our best beach trip ever !

Great beach week
The location was everything we wanted, truly on the beach. The layout of the house, size of bedrooms and bathrooms was great. Plenty towels. The kitchen comes up short. The stove needs to be replaced, the fridge is close behind it. There is a really nice waffle iron there, and plenty dishes and silverware. Skillets not so great. The outside shower is a water hose. But even though there were some disappointments we all had a good time.

Great deck on the beach
Overall we loved our stay with the house clean and right on the beach and the perfect size for 6 adults and 6 kids. We did have lots of problems getting in/out of the driveway, often getting stuck in the sand that was very deep and having to push vehicles out. We also did not have any satellite throughout the entire stay which was reported the first night and someone came to check but was unable to fix at that time and we never heard back. The back deck stairs also move a lot when walking up/down and appear as if they need more support. Finally we had very strange power issues where the lights and appliances would go in/out like we were going to lose power for the last two days. We first thought this was a wind issue but no other houses around us had the same problem. We did enjoy our stay but it seems as if the house could use some maintenance.

Stellar!
Best beach property ever! Absolutely beautiful inside and out. Gorgeous beach with wide variety of shore birds entertaining us. Fabulous beach combing-the Gulf gave us lots of gifts! We’ll be back! Consider changing front door entry, most confusing convoluted lock/unlock procedures of any rental we’ve ever visited.

Location was great ! House was nice only recommendations is washing machine and air vents need cleaning and could use hangers in the closets. There was only 1 swing and it broke on Friday when my daughter sat in it. They did respond when we contacted them about this and came on Sunday and fixed it. Overall happy with our stay and would come back again .

Gorgeous, roomy beachfront treasure
The check in process was easy and the property is roomy and gorgeous. It is beautifully decorated. We cooked and had adequate tools in the kitchen. We had 4 adults with all kinds of sewing tables and machines for a quilt retreat. We had plenty of room for all that! The communication with Vacasa was good through email and texting. We submitted a maintenance request for an annoying kitchen faucet that just would not turn off, and they put in a work ticket, but it still wasn’t fixed 3 days later when we checked out. The internet is painfully slow. Someone needed to do a zoom meeting that didn’t work well. It is a rural part of AL, so probably not a lot of internet providers to compete. The TV was great for the game on Saturday, though! I would absolutely love to come back and stay here again, assuming I don’t need internet access. Be aware there are stairs and no handicap access.

Water bugs, poor fridge and air, no TV
We thought the place was clean until a water bug ran across the back of the couch. There were bugs in a bedroom and a bathroom. We went to buy food and lost over $750 in food:sirloin beef roast, pork tenderloin, 5-lbs chicken salad, $100 in cheeses, chicken, ice cream, etc. you sent 2 men to fix the fridge, but it still did not work. We had to buy $20 worth of ice daily to put in coolers for milk, eggs, etc. The tv in the living room never worked. We called and texted to try to get help, but you would disconnect after a few minutes. I was extremely disappointed with my vacation!

Great getaway for 3 couples
We loved the house! It was perfect for 3 couples - plenty of space, great deck space, loved walking down the steps and being on the beach. Saw lots of dolphins! Great space for game playing in the evenings. We all said we would be happy to come back and stay at "License to Chill" again! (We did have an issue with the grill not working and it was replaced quickly, however that grill didn't work and we didn't a call back on that.)

Beautiful, excellent location and slightly lacking
This house is perfectly placed right on the beach, which makes it ideal with younger children! The issues we had with the house I believe comes down to management. The bunk room beds had not been washed before we got there and the comforters and sheets where covered with sand so we had to wash the sheets. There are no solid curtains only sheers on either of the master bedrooms that lead out the the main deck so if you are traveling with friends or family you have no privacy ( which is kinda a big deal on vacation), so these really do need to replaced with an adequate curtains to provide necessary privacy. There was no working tv or streaming due to a fully rusted out dish that was held to the house with a rope, this was addressed with management and someone came out our last day to switch the house to a different service and we were credited for this inconvenience. The exterior shower was also rusted out and was only a hose so we had management send someone out to fix that as well, which they did. As far as interior the house is beautiful. There are some things you should know before getting to the island if you are using the house for 10-12 people. You will want to bring toilet paper, trash bags, and paper towels. There were two small rolls in each bathroom but since stores are not easily accessible your better off purchasing ahead of time and make sure to bring laundry detergent and dish soap. Also grab ice because the ice maker doesn’t work well and makes very little ice. There are not enough glasses, mugs and bowls to accommodate 10+ guests so bring some paper goods. The coffee pot also leaks and is missing the filter inside so you may want to bring your own. I say all of that to give the next guest a heads up on how to prepare not to deter from renting because like I said the house is beautiful and the location is perfect. I just think that the management company could stand to do regular walk through of there properties to make sure they are appropriately stocked for the quantity of guests they advertise for and to handle the minute details like coffee pots, dishes and general maintenance due to rust from salt water so the guests are not have to contact management while on vacation

Perfect place to slow down and be on beach time
We had 5 adults and 7 kids (ages 7-17) stay here with plenty of room to spare! The house was nice and the beach even better! I will say this house is right by the entry for a public beach opening so it can get a little crowded, but it didn’t bother us much, more people to watch! Lol! We cooked every meal at the house, which was nice, the kitchen does need some items added (it sleeps 12 but only has 9 plates) things like that, but nothing we couldn’t figure something else out and made it work! We all had an amazing time and made great memories and most importantly the kids were all outside each and every day (no electronics allowed!) and they had a great time exploring and learning and playing! I wouldn’t hesitate AT ALL to stay here again!
