Sugar Dunes at Cottages at Romar ~ 2BR 2.5Bath Sleeps 8

Beautiful place that gave our family a relaxing and fun vacation by the beach. Family friendly with a great pool area and a short walk to the beach.

We had such a nice stay and this house was the perfect beach house! Nice close access to the beach. Decorated very nice, very clean, and exactly what we were looking for in our Spring break vacation. Hostess was very helpful and quick to reply! Loved everything about this house! Really recommend!

We checked out today from a 6 night stay over spring break and had a wonderful time. The house is beautiful, clean, and comfortable. Family of 4-2 teenagers, had plenty of space for the week. Beds were comfortable. We enjoyed sitting on the back deck relaxing. We cooked multiple meals and had everything we needed in the kitchen. The location of the house is exactly as described online. It sits in a small gated community with a beautiful pool in the center. The pool sits behind the house across the street. The beach entrance is not even a block away. The beach is pristine, fine white sand. We walked a 10th of a mile to rent bikes and biked the 1/2 mile to the Gulf State Park. Beautiful trails and scenery throughout. We followed the bike paths to the Gulf Shores Fishing Pier- again beautiful! There is a side gate for walkers to get in and out, which was convenient as were weren’t always triggering the gate to get back in. We walked multiple times to the stores and restaurants along Perdido Drive-walking 1-2.5 miles each way. Some days we cut back along the ocean and walked along the water. The weather and scenery were beautiful. Our teens are already asking when we can go back. I replied only if we can get the same house again! The owner was attentive with communication. I wish beach towels, boogie boards, and pool noodles were provided- we packed our own but it would have been one less thing to pack. I have seen this and board games provided at other VRBO we have stayed at.

The traffic noise was very loud and there wasn't any white noise devices so we had to go buy something from WalMart to drown out the noise so we could sleep. There are no curtains, only blinds that don't block the light, so you can't sleep in on vacation because of the light coming in very early. The towels were dollar store towels and would not even dry you off. We paid a lot of money for luxury - they did not take any pride in the experience. The cookware was trash and toxic. The TVs in the bedrooms did not have range to work off the router and no one emailed us back to let us know how to get the TVs to work (we emailed twice). They expect a lot of you to take out the trash, strip the sheets (which were also dollar store sheets and blankets that slipped off the bed because of the poor quality). The furniture was stained and looked dirty. Not worth what they are charging. Sorry to say. Also, the beach area is groomed better in other places we have stayed in Orange Beach. We were pretty bummed out for the money we paid.
