| We rented both "When Pigs Fly Up" and "When Pigs Fly Down" in August of 2009. The home is in great condition and has everything you need to make it an enjoyable vacation. The home is conveniently located to the beach and has many small touches that really improve the experience. The private pool is great for the kids and provides a needed break from the beach. We would definitely recommend renting this lovely home. |

| We just returned from staying in "When Pigs Fly". My family had the upper unit and my sister and her family had the lower. It was wonderful. The accomodations were better than expected, supplied extremely well. The furnishings were very comfortable. We arrived and there had been a storm and the pool had debris in it. It rained off and on for the next two days, and I called to get it cleaned and someone came the next day so we could swim. The views are breathtaking, go on the deck and watch the sunrise. My family will rent again if we come back. |

| What a FANTASTIC place!!!! We are very particular about where we stay on vacation and this met all of our expectations - clean, all the necessities, fantastic pool, etc. We had 4 kids there along with 9 adults and there was plenty of room. It is in a very quiet area and very easy access to the beach - just have to walk across the street. We will definately be back to visit again. We had to twist my husbands arm to go to the beach and he loved it - nothing else needs to be said. Also, this appeared to be one of the nicer homes in the area. We highly recommend it! |

| We stayed at "When Pigs Fly" in June of "09 with my entire family. The accommodations far exceeded our expectations. Everything you needed for the house, pool and the beach were provided for us. We will definitely pack lighter next year. The floor plan of the house was perfect for our family, where as, the late sleepers were upstairs and the early risers slept downstairs. The closed in railing around the decks were wonderful, which helped keep the little ones from escaping. The owners were so kind and made sure we had everything we needed. Thank you to the Gaberino's for providing such a beautiful home for all of us to enjoy while in Gulf Shores. This was the first time we had rented from private owners, after our stay here we will only book with them from now on. We had great weather and an amazing vacation. We look forward to coming back to "When Pigs Fly". |

| My husband and I stayed at When Pigs Fly for 3 days in May. We had never rented using VRBO and were a little hesitant; however, I had some friends that had used the website so we decided to try it. It was a wonderful experience. Susan was so very helpful with making the reservations and our entire trip was perfect. The downstairs duplex looks exactly like the photos. The entire duplex is very comfortable and was extremely clean. I can't think of a single thing the kitchen was missing. The short walk to the beach was always a treat. We totally enjoyed sitting out on the porch in the mornings and evenings; what a pleasant time with no loud music, no traffic sound, no dogs barking.....just a great ocean breeze and the distant sound of the surf. We can't wait to go back and stay longer. |

| We had a great vacation! I love the fact the pool was private. There was no one staying upstairs which made the whole trip even more private. The house was well maintained. It was also beautifully decorated and had all the essentials. We will rent again!!!! I can't wait until next year! |

This duplex is a very nice and convenient family location. We went during Spring Break, so even though we did swim, it was a little cool. The area is very family friendly and the walk to the beach short, easy and convenient. We did have a few small problems but the owners, Geoff and Susan were very available to get things corrected. My one suggestion would be to replace the wicker chairs as they were not in the best shape and not real comfortable to sit and watch t.v.
We will definitely visit again and stay with these owners. |

| We spent the months of January, February & March in the second level of "When Pigs Fly" and were very happy. It was very comfortable and roomy. The kitchen was great. The front porch was wonderful to sit and read a book or relaxing while viewing the pool and gulf. Everything we needed for our stay was provided. |

| Our group rented both units and you can believe the description provided by the owners. "When Pigs Fly" has everything you need to enjoy yourselves in Gulf Shores. Bring your swimsuits and food/drinks; everything else is waiting for you here. Beach chairs and umbrellas, pool toys, etc. Both units are beautiful. The owners were helpful and responded quickly to our questions before we arrived and while we were there. Nice location, close to everything and priced right. Enjoy! |

| What a great place to stay! My 10-year-old daughter and I, along with my Mom and Dad, rented the first floor for a week in April. We had a wonderful week enjoying the beautiful pool and the well-furnished house. We especially loved the heated pool. We are hoping to get back there again soon! |
