Amazing Views - Beachfront 2BR/2BA Condo
Year Purchased: 2002
Why the Owner Chose Island Shores
Awesome direct ocean view as soon as you walk in the place. It's right next to Sea-n-Suds, Waffle House across the street, and short walk to Hooters, Pink Pony Pub and the Hangout. Hard to beat this location and view. Plus with a low density complex (59 units), there's plenty of room on our 200 feet of beachfront white sugar sand. It literally so fine it squeaks when you walk on it, and doesn't get too hot in the summer since it's white. I've traveled many beaches and haven't seen any better beaches.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
The ocean sounds are so relaxing. Many guests have spotted dolphins swimming as they sat on the balcony. Also, being on the top floor, it's a bit more quiet and peaceful away from other guests.
One of my favorite restaurants in Gulf Shores. Great weekday lunch specials for around $6.00 including tea. http://www.desotosseafoodkitchen.com
New restaurant/bar located at Hwy 59/Beach Blvd intersection. Live music.. http://www.thehangoutal.com/

Google needs to update their satellite images. This Walmart has been open for quite a while now. Short drive from Island Shores. And you drive right by it on the way down to the condo. Turn east on

Favorite mexican restaurant I've found in this area. Just north of the Winn Dixie.

New development with shopping, Cobb Theater and Longhorn's restaurant.
Nice "dive" like restaurant/bar. Great burgers and seafood with local flavor.

Owner's Map of Island Shores
Hello, I've had this property for over 7yrs now and broke free from management companies to manage it myself over 2yrs ago. Once I got off active duty Air Force and got my realtor license, decided to start doing it myself. I'm back on active duty as an Army Officer now. I love to travel, see new places and meet new people. I also manage my mom's condo in Gulf Shores (#141545) and my 2br/2ba condo in downtown Gatlinburg (#141532). We keep our properties well maintained, so you have a great vacation and visit our condos as repeat guest. Just check out the guestbook for testimonials. Thanks.
