Turtle Dunes was perfect for our family of 10.
We stayed with a group of 18. Everything was wonderful. The house location is perfect, the kitchen is fully stocked. The views from the top deck are breathtaking. The elevator was a huge plus for our handicap daughter and they even had a bath chair in the master bathroom. We will definitely be back. Thank you!
The location was perfect! Our family stayed with extended family coming through different days. The elevator was incredibly helpful for my dad, who has mobility issues. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms and kitchen were clean. The neighbors next door were a little loud but tolerable. The decks will need to be redone soon, as they are looking very worn in. Overall, we had a great time!

The house is beautiful and very comfortable with a great location. They view from either balcony is great and nice for a morning coffee or evening drink. The house was very clean and well kept. The elevator was worth the price for getting to the 2nd and 3rd floor. The only issue we had was the satellite was out and non functional during the stay. If traveling with kids bring a Roku or Firestick......Or force them to enjoy the outdoors. Would stay again and recommend highly.

The home was nicely decorated and very clean. Everyone had plenty of space for privacy and for gathering. The decks were nice, but we had to do maintenance on many of the deck screws protruding. We had several mishaps with people tripping on them. Although the description boasts of an elevator, it was deadbolted and not available for our use. Thankfully, we had plenty of hands to help with bags. Overall, this is a nice home for a small crowd.

Reviewer Comments:
My family absolutely loved this rental. There was plenty of room for everyone. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed during our stay. The beds were comfortable. The water pressure for showers was awesome! The elevator definitely came in handy when unloading/loading our vehicles. Our only complaints would be the A/C could not be lower than 72, problems with the satellite and WiFi throughout our weeklong stay (even after maintenance came out), and the sand dunes blocked the view of the beach from the porch on main level of the home. It was still a great rental and we would definitely recommend it!
We had a great time. We were not able to eat in Gulf Shores with such young children, as the restaurants were always requiring hour to two hour waits which we couldn’t do with your children. However Fort Morgan itself had plenty of options, and even a fine dining option at Jesse’s on the Bay. Overall, fantastic trip without the hustle and bustle of Fort Morgan. There is a resort behind the house so the beach could get crowded if you don’t get out there early. I came here as a kid (I’m 40 now), and I haven’t been back since 2002. I have NEVER seen this much wildlife here. We saw a sea turtle swimming in the tide, dolphins, sharks, and tons of fish. Bring your rod.
This location was terrific. We had 12 adults and 3 kids and there was room for everyone. There were jelly fish on the beach one day, and it was great to have a pool available to use.
We were a little disappointed with a few factors, but recognize it's the end of season and time for repairs before 2024.
If booking for 2024, I would recommend ensuring the deck and outdoor stairs have been replaced, all light fixtures are working, and the linens match the size of the beds. We were not comfortable in king sized beds with queen sized linen that did not match the VRBO property pictures.
We also had 4 people working from the home and highly recommend you bring your own hot spots. The house wifi was extremely weak.
With those improvements in mind, we would recommend this property!

Reviewer Comments:
The rental was very spacious with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. The bedrooms and bathrooms were very clean. The view from the third floor was great. The elevator was a lifesaver for me. I could not have done the trip without it! Would have been nice to have grab bars in main shower. The kitchen needed a deep cleaning. The stove and dishwasher need to be replaced. One couch was broken and I could not sit on it because it made my back hurt! The property manager was very professional and attentive. She handled any issues I had very promptly and friendly. We enjoyed having access to the swimming pool in the evenings. This was a “Girls Trip” which included me, 3 daughters and 4 granddaughters and overall we had a really good time. The area was quite, peaceful, and relaxing ( which is just what we were looking for). Thanks for sharing Turtle Dunes with us!

We had a great time. Would definitely rent again!
The house was in very hood shape. The elevator was extremely helpful for my elderly fathe in law and it was great for bringing all our luggage up and down.
Had a wonderful time at the beachfront property. Easy access to beach and pool. Great layout of home with fantastic views of the Gulf, especially the two upper level bedrooms. Would gladly return again and hopefully will in the near future.
Enjoyed a great family vacation. The house had a lot of space. Loved the large table. Enjoyed the beach and sitting on the large porch.

We truly enjoyed our visit at the end of May. The house is beautiful and more than equipped with all we needed. Plenty of parking for our 6 vehicles and easy to locate. The elevator was wonderful for sending up our luggage and coolers. We all agreed we would definitely stay here again.
Great location for someone who is familiar with Fort Morgan. Once you get there you don’t want to leave! Internet was very spotty but other than that we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Awesome, Fabulous, Exceptional - the house, the view, the cleanliness, the mgmt service - everything was sooooo great and we thoroughly enjoyed our vacation here. Would absolutely recommend to all.

We had a friend group of 8 adults and 8 children and it was perfect for us. We enjoyed the en suite bathrooms in each bedroom. The layout of house was nice. The kitchen was well stocked and we always had what we needed to make meals. View from top deck was stunning, great for dolphin watching. We also loved that the stairs from porch went directly to boardwalk to get to beach. We had an amazing time.
Great time with our extended family. House was very adequate for our 14 people as three teens slept in the
Couches. Proximity to the beach terrific. Minor issues with the house were resolved.

overall our experience was good. Some minor issues with the house but I would stay here again. The ice machine does not work and the repair person never showed to fix it. The linens provided are terrible-sheets won't stay on the beds and the towels are tiny and thin. Again, overall our stay was good.
