Cechell

Despite it raining the majority time us being here on vacation, this was the perfect spot! Reasonably priced, great location, pool, right across the street from the beach, and 2 balcony views of the beach. Can’t really ask for more!

We brought the whole family, 6 adults and two mutts. The place was clean and true to it's description. There were plenty of good restaurants and stores nearby. It was the perfect getaway for us. Thanks!

Loved the location, and had plenty of room. The pool was salt water and an added bonus. The furniture in the living room was pretty stained and needs a good cleaning or replacement.

We really enjoyed our stay at Cechell. The property has a great set-up. Everyone loved that each room had a private bathroom. We only had a few hiccups, but none of them major at all. The code provided for the key box never worked so we couldn't use it. The only thing we were kinda disappointed in was access to the beach. We are right across from the beach but only way to get to it is a mile down the road. That should be stated somewhere. Luckily we met the people across from us on the beach and they let us walk through their carport.

This was a great vacation rental! Note that it is a duplex and the front porch is shared and the pool is shared, but the other people when we were there were lovely. The beds were comfortable and we are a family of 5 with 3 adult 6' tall children and they were all comfortable in their own queen beds. The kitchen was well stocked with any kind of cookware you would need, but be aware that you'll need your own everything in terms of food. We rented during the Pandemic and we ate all of our meals in with no issues. The wi-fi struggled with the 5 of us and all of our electronics, but that happens at home too. We loved that the beach was right across the street without paying beachfront rental prices. We would definitely stay here again!

We really liked this rental - great location, nice to have a semi-private pool, and great floor layout on this duplex. Plenty of room for a large family/friend group and nice large spaces. It could use some more pots/pans etc and chairs by the pool .., it’s a pretty large space but lacking if you want to do much cooking in the unit.

We had a great time at Cechell! The location is convenient to grocery stores, restaurants, and right across the street from the beach! We enjoyed having meals on the front porch and loved the swing!

Manager's Response

Good place to stay. Loved the porch swing and outdoor view. Pool looked very nice, but unfortunately it was too cool for us to use it. Would stay there again especially if we bring our dog back.

It was a nice place to stay

Our stay at Gulf Shores was great and the Cehell rental property just perfect for our 9 which consisted of 3 families.

Manager's Response

Master bed mattress needs replaced . Not enough pots and pans for cooking, not big pot fir shrimp boil. No baking dishes for casserole. Other than these two items ok. Need more pillows on couch, not to comfortable.

Manager's Response

The weather for the most part was very nice, Only a couple of cold days. It was great to walk the beach and sit on the swing seeing the ocean and getting a lot of sun.

We had a great stay at this house. The location was perfect and the house accommodated everyone well. It was a short walk across the street to the beach but the location had very little traffic so it wasn’t a problem with my 2 and 5 year old boys. We will definitely stay here again.

This was our first vacation with my whole family in 8 years. I want to thank you. The location was awesome. The duplex was big enough for our entire clan (Our clan is 9 people). There was plenty of room for us. The whole gang of us was very happy with the place. It was clean and the kitchen was very well appointed. I would love to book this place again. The only complaint I have were in the upstairs master bathroom (the one with the king size bed) and the downstairs bathroom. We could not get the bathtub faucets to adjust the water to a moderate temperature. It was really hot. Also, the satellite tv in the master bedroom didn't work for our week there. We called to report it, but directv never showed up to fix it. We still had it in the other bedroom and living room, so no biggie. This is not the fault of Relax on the Beach. We have directv at home, so I feel like this was just a directv issue. We made some wonderful memories. My oldest son wants us to rent this place every year and come back to Gulf Shores every year. Thank you.

Had a great weekend with family at Cechell. Plenty of room for the 10 of us all adults. Close to everything good and quick walk to the beach with lots of room to set up for a day of fun in the sun. The house is well equipped with what you will need. Overall great place, stayed here last year and will try for it next year.

Manager's Response

It was a great place. There were minor things wrong and wasn't totally cleaned but it was great and we enjoyed it immensely. Would definitely recommend it. The person I was in contact with was very helpful and understanding.

Manager's Response

Area was nice and beach is a quick walk across the street. The house needs some minor touching up, but it fine for the 5 days. What you need to know: mattresses are horrible to sleep on, take trash bags if you plan on staying for a few days, they don't furnish enough, same for toilet paper. If you drink coffee, take filters. This is the first place I've rented for vacation that didn't offer these things or offer enough of them.

Manager's Response

Stayed in this property with a group of friends and it was a satisfactory overall experience. House was clean and offered more than enough room. I dot think the listing for this property is a bit misleading though as it seems to try to hide the fact that it is a duplex. With that being said, still a good overall experience.

Manager's Response

The house was clean and very spacious everyone had there own space. Quick and easy access to the beach overall this beach house was a great choice and myself and my family look forward to renting this property and another next year.

Had family come all the way from England, wanted to surprise them with a typical American Style breakfast. Come back from store only to find pots and pans, or a lack of in order to make breakfast. Missing handles, non stick pans completely scratched through, one so bad that it had eggs on it from the last few tenants. TV would consistently go out if you looked at it wrong. Nice clean place though, fix these minor issues and all would be great. Other items in Kitchen were great (dishes, glassware, etc). Just the cooking utensils were not up to par.

Manager's Response

We rented Cechelle on Thanksgiving weekend, and had a blast. The condo was very clean, very roomy, and the property manager came out to fix a very minor issue. She was extremely helpful and very nice. The rental is a short walk to the public beach access, and the beach is gorgeous. My son wants to go back for his birthday, and we were sad that we didn't stay longer.

The location of the home was great and the condition of the home was good besides a few issues that management took care of right away

Manager's Response

Over all was well pleased with our stay. Location, amenities, and price were all a deciding factor when choosing this unit and we were not disappointed. Beach access was an ease. Away from all the late night rumble of the main drag. Good neighbors. The unit was clean and tidy. Could use a tad of updating in some places (i.e. Front porch, door to balcony, master bathtub) but all in all good unit for the location and price!!

Manager's Response

Perfect location, enjoyed my stay. Needs update on furniture and utensils.

Manager's Response

We had a fantastic experience staying at Cechell. The home was very open and clean, and easily accommodated 5 adults and 4 children. It is also very close to beach access. I would however like to state that this is a duplex style home with a shared balcony downstairs. We were unaware of this when we booked it, as the website did not state this, however it worked out great and we still had an amazing time. I just think they should make this clear when advertising the property.

Manager's Response

The beach house, although across the street from the beach, was perfect! It had plenty of space for 8 of us. I would definitely stay here again. Very comfortable beds, plenty of dishes, towels.
The only thing that I feel would have helped us was more seating in the living room. When we were all in there together, we had to bring in bag chairs so everyone had a seat to watch the movie in (the dining chairs were uncomfortable to sit on thru an entire movie)

Manager's Response

We traveled to Gulf Shores to enjoy The Oyster Fest. The beach house was clean, comfortable and affordable for the six of us. I guess we arrived during off season as the beaches were tourist free. Beautiful sunrises on empty beaches. The house was quiet except for the crashing waves. Met all our expectations.

the only issue beach access wasn't easy, had to find the path. There was a lot of traffic i.e. noise but other wise great time.

My friend and I stayed here with my son and his friend. We had an awesome time. Altho this property is not right on the water it is just a very short walk to the beach. I would recommend this condo to anyone. Close to everything in Gulf Shores. The only complaint from anyone was no tv in one of the bedrooms.

Very spacious living area with very comfortable bedrooms. We were able to sleep with the bedroom french doors open to hear the waves crashing on the beach nightly. Virtually no insects whatsoever. Extremely clean, neat & tidy. Would recommend to all that need to sleep from 2 to 8 people. Close to everything that we chose to do.

There were 7 of us and it suited our needs well. The porch was great. The beach was also located very nearby.

CeChell was by far the best place we have ever stayed. The location was great, the kids loved the beach and it was only 6 miles from the ball park. The neighbors were great.

The Cechell was a great find! The location was great and across from the beach. Owners and management personnel are very friendly. We enjoyed our stay. The house was big enough for us and had what we needed to stay for the week. However, the apartment size washer and dryer were too small for 6 adults and 3 kids.
I would stay here again.

House was in a good location. Not super big, but well kept.

This vacation house is one of the best I've had the pleasure of staying in. Everything was clean and perfect. The neighbors were amazing people as well.
