Wonderful Quick Trip

We came down for a quick trip for a 40th birthday celebration. The weather was not the best but the rain didn't bother us when our pool was covered :) The food in GS and Orange Beach was magnificent. The house was beautiful and exactly what we needed. Thanks for a great stay - would recommend to anyone looking for a beach front property.

Beach house was wonderful! Very clean and had everything we needed. Sits right on the beach! Very short walk to the water. Which is great if you have a lot of kids sand toys to take down to the beach lol. We hope to be back to Pineapple Paradise!

True Paradise

We had a wonderful week at Pineapple Paradise! The house is beautiful. Having 7 full bathrooms is a plus. The 3 floors of stairs is great exercise! The view is spectacular! Just being steps from the beach made it so easy to run back to the house. Great house and location for anyone looking for a little bit of paradise!!

Beautiful weekend

So quiet and peaceful! And the VIEW!!! Amazing! The stairs were very challenging for the seniors in our family. We knew this ahead of time though so we did our best to prepare for it. Really, everything we needed to enjoy our family time. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful House Steps From the Beach!

The property was roomy, beautiful, clean and well appointed. Our age range was 2-67. Everyone enjoyed the beach immensely. There were plenty of beach chairs and beach toys. It was located close to stores and restaurants. We took a day trip to Naval museum in Pensacola (very nice & free of charge). We took advantage of the 2 washer & dryer sets. Would recommend this property highly!

Perfect multi family beach house

We had a wonderful weeklong experience at Pineapple Paradise! The house is spacious for multiple families and was well stocked with pretty much everything you need for a week! The location right on the beach is amazing and just far enough away from the busy area of town to relax but also close enough to get anywhere in town quickly. The pool heater broke just before we arrived and the management company refunded our money and still worked hard to get it fixed for part of our stay. They were friendly and easy to work with and quick to answer any questions we had all week. 10 out of 10 recommend!

Gorgeous house and beautiful location

Enough room for us all. Beautiful house and convenient location to restaurants and grocery store. Loved being right on the beach. Perfect for us with little ones who can’t walk too far. Loved that beach chairs and sand toys were provided. Only thing I would recommend are new mattresses soon for the trundle bed and pull out mattress. And also maybe more kitchen towels, trash service for large groups, and cooking sheets. Amazing place and we loved every minute.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Close to beach, thanks for beach chairs and toys.Plenty of Parking. The stairs was a problem for us and the kitchen not quite big enough. The year before I think spoiled us with the size and duplicate applicances in kitchen, coffee maker, microwaves, stoves, refreigerators, etc This was a little cramp for 5 bedrooms for 13 people.

Friendcation

Started off a little rocky. Previous renters left a mrss for the cleaning crew. Our check in was late because of that. But we were given a gift certificate for a local restaurant to make up for the inconvenience. Air conditioning issues on the top floor, but again they were quickly taken care of. Overall we recommend this house. We were treated wonderfully. They were quick to fix any issues.

Beautiful House

The house is beautiful and was very clean when we arrived. It is three stories so be ready to climb up and down stairs a lot. It was great having a private pool and being right on the beach. My only negative comment would be the beach access is also shared with the townhouses across the street so you have to get out to the beach early to get a good spot. Also it would be nice if the pool was heated since it’s primarily in the shade....later in the summer it may not be an issue with hotter temps though. The cold pool didn’t deter the kids and they still thoroughly enjoyed it. We received very quick responses anytime we had a question or needed anything. Overall we had a great vacation and would recommend the house. The beds were very comfortable and for me that’s saying a lot because there are few places I have stayed that have comfortable beds!

Perfect family getaway!

Our family LOVED this property! My parents along with my brother and our families went. 6 adults, 3 kids. More room than necessary for us, but it was perfect. The pictures are 100% accurate & the perks are countless. The location was perfect: easy beach access, quick car ride to attractions & the views were breath taking. The property managers were extremely helpful with great communication. The house was more than well stocked! Kitchen has all kinds of silverware, glassware, bakeware & serving ware. A crockpot, blender, toaster & the all important coffee maker & kuerig. Just bring spices & food! There were many pool & beach toys. Parents of littles: there was a baby gate when we were there but I recommend bringing 1-2 if you think about it, the stairs are open & wider than the standard baby gate. There are a lot of stairs, but it wasn’t an issue for us. the levels were really nice to give everyone a little more privacy. If you’re there in the off season, pay for the heated pool! It was like a bathtub!

Beautiful spot

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property is in a beautiful spot, wonderful view, and was generally clean. Being a rental owner myself , I thought I would offer a few things that I noticed in an effort to assist you all.It seems a bit worn and needs someone to spend to take a thoughtful and closer look. Here are a few items: the glass shower door on the 3rd floor hall doesn't close properly and is dangerous, the deck furniture on the main floor is broken and worn, toilet seats are worn and rusted, the grill is broken and not usable, several dining chairs are loose and wobbly, the AC on the main floor couldn't keep up during the day and stayed at 75/76, the appliance work but are really worn, the flooring is worn in many areas, our bathroom door latch didn't line up and wouldn't lock, the dryer door on the main floor doesn't open properly, the single lane driveway makes it difficult to park three cars conveniently. I hope these comments might assist you.ted helm

Wonderful trip!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We went off season and you do run a risk of weather. We didn’t see the sun much but the house was beautiful. I thought the pool underneath the house was a bit odd, but it was a lifesaver because it could rain, rain, rain, and the kids could be in the pool. The electronic concierge didn’t seem to work as we reported a broken garbage disposal. We never heard back from maintenance, but a lack of garbage disposal did not impact our stay. I just wanted to make sure the property management company was aware. We loved the amount of space and the layout because it allowed those of us that needed to work to do so. The WiFi couldn’t handle the zoom call, but that could have been weather related as we were there when Hurricane Francine was active or due to the number of people working.I would definitely book this home again!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was perfect for our family of 10. We loved having the pool and being right on the beach. I think renters should be aware that the walkway is a public access, so one shouldn't be surprised to see families and individuals walking right next to the house. We did not have any problems with this, but it was just a little unexpected. Other than that, the house was clean and spacious for our group. The management company is wonderful and responsive, and helpful in answering our questions for future rentals.

We do wish there were steps from the deck to the pool/beach area. Unfortunately with our growing family, we need at least another bedroom, that’s the only reason we aren’t renting for next year.

Fabulous Week

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family had a wonderful time. Pineapple Paradise is so neat and clean. Kitchen is stocked well with essentials to cook. Our kids love the pool. Mattresses on beds are firm and not worn out. One suggestion is a curtain or room divider to make a temporary “door” for the area on the 3rd floor. We have kids that sleep there and it give a little privacy.
