Location: Windward Pointe, Orange Beach West, Orange Beach, Alabama, USA (1 hr from Mobile's airport, 45 min. from Pensacola's)

Accommodations:  Condominium, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 6-8)

We love the floor plan of our condominium because when you are in one room you are unaware of people in the other rooms. It's very spacious and feels bigger than it really is. Large closets in each bedroom and storage in the laundry area provide a place to store everything. The balcony is such a bonus. It's as big as two rooms. Many of our guests like to sleep out there! It's safe for toddlers and protected from most bad weather. It is accessed from the living room and master bedroom. In the winter we like to watch the sun rise without getting out of bed!

We think the new pavers around our outdoor pool are a work of art. There are seven circles in the pattern. Can you find them? We like to eat dinner by the light of our balcony palm tree and watch the lights from shrimp boats. We're on the ninth floor and have a great view of beach, pool activities, and wildlife. The heated indoor pool, hot tub, sauna, and exercise room are especially nice during the cooler months when the beach or outdoor pool may be too cool. Exercise equipment and tennis court are new.

It's nice to be able to walk to the nearby amusement park, nearby restaurants, and live music. Most young adults want to check out the infamous Flora-Bama Lounge. It's just down the road at the Florida border. Our favorite restaurants are within a 15 minute drive. Free local newspapers, booklets, and the Gulf Coast Convention and Visitors Center will keep you aware of events you will not want to miss...or just sit on the beach or balcony and watch the world go by.

  • Pat and Stan, 3 ladies and I stayed in your condo recently and had a wonderful time. Your condo is beautifully decorated and fully equiped. Every thing we needed. The weather was not the best - cold and wet but what do you expect in January and we were not there for the beach, we were there to relax from our jobs and enjoy the fellowship of family members. We'll come back for the beach. We were close to the grocery store, drug store and everything, and enjoyed some delicious food at Bubba's (right across the street)and Lu Lu's Restaurants. We will definately be back to have a glass of wine on your large balcony, sit in the rocking chair and look at that beautiful blue water. Thank you for providing a great condo for visitors like us to enjoy, Anita, Margaret, Elizabeth and Judy

  • Pat and Stan Thank you so much for the hospitality we received in your wonderful beach front condo. Our recent vacation could not have been better. The weather was great and the condo was lovely. The seven of us felt very much at home and enjoyed a much needed vacation. Thanks also for the recommendation of the Dolphin Express cruise. It was amazing.....we saw many Dolphin and even had the chance to see several of them jumping the wake of our boat.
    
    Homeowner Response:
    We are pleased you felt at home and that our dolphin friends performed for you! You previously mentioned returning next year. We will give a 10% discount to returning guests! Pat & Stan

Thank you owners for making this as beautiful and comfortable for your renters as well as yourselves. J and J, Huntsville, Al

  • We really enjoyed our stay. The rest of our family came down and equally enjoyed their stay. Even with up to 7 of us part of the time we did not feel crowded. The furnishings appeared to be nearly new and the kitchen was as well stocked as any condo we have rented at the beach. The Gulf views as we expected were great and the location was convenient. We would definitely rent here again.
