  I can't say enough good things about this condo! Even though the weather wasn't very co-operative, our family still had a wonderful time here. Very beautifully appointed. Absolutely gorgeous view of the Gulf! The owners offer lots of little extras that others don't. (See other reviews.) The beds are comfortable, which was a big concern for me. The beach towels are nice and thick, not cheapy thin ones. Having beach chairs available saves a lot on not having to bring your own or renting them. Bahama Bob"s (which has some of the best seafood available in the area, esp. their crablegs) is only two buildings away and easily within walking distance. Jim, the owner, was very easy to work with. We needed to move furniture a bit in one of the bedrooms to make room for an inflatable mattress for a toddler, and he was so accomodating in this matter. (Another condo owner I had asked was not receptive to this request.) We would definitely stay here again if given the chance to return. Thanks, Jim and Rebecca!!

  Our trip was great in every way. The condo was very nicely furnished. The owners were so thoughtful and did everything they could to see that we had a good trip. Couldn't have asked for better. This is definitely something we would like to repeat.

  This was our third stay at this beautiful condo, and we have reservations for the fall! The condo is spacious, beautifully decorated, comfortable, well stocked, and very clean. The owners are super to work with, always answer e-mails promptly and offer so much more than any other places we have stayed! The quality beach chairs, beach towels, and umbrella's are life savers! Upon arrival there is no stopping at the real estate office, etc., entry is quick and easy so your vacation can begin immediately! It is the best place we've found in Gulf Shores, and after we found it two years ago we can't imagine staying anywhere else! Owners go above and beyond what most renters offer! Thank you Jim and Rebecca!!!

  My wife did a review for our stay last summer, and we loved the place so much that we had to return again this year. There are so many small details that the owners provide that others never even think of, that we will never be able to get from another owner. We love the complex, from the infinity pool to the warm indoor pool. The beach is never crowded, and many times we get the pools to ourselves. The location can't be beat, and the views are breath taking. We vacation every year in gulf shores and out of all the places that we have stayed, this condo is the best, hands down.

  We stayed a week in this beautiful condo in April. The condo is as described and more! Perfect location, very clean, very nice amenities not found in other condos. The owners are super to work with. They had thought of everything to make our stay pleasant. It was wonderful to have beach chairs, beach towels, beach toys, kitchen spices, etc. provided. Sure saved on the packing and provided more room in the van. We loved the condo and went ahead and made reservations to return in October, and plan to return to this condo every time we visit Gulf Shores -- which is usually twice a year.

  We stayed in this beautiful condo last summer, and had a good time despite the Oil disaster . The condo is beautiful and so wonderfully stocked. A great addition is having beach chairs and umbrellas as well as beach towels, so very helpful not to have to bring our own as we have with all other owners. The Island tower is our very favorite condo complex in the Gulf shores area, the location can not be beat. The owners have been wonderful, and do everything to make sure your vacation is perfect. We are returning again this may , and we have never stayed in the same Unit with anyone else. we had previously stayed in the Island Tower , but this owner has so much to offer in extra's, we would never stay in this building in another unit. The island tower has two great pools and is always clean and ultra safe. Great for all kinds of vacationers .

  We stayed in this condominium July, 2010, and it was the best we have stayed in. The views from the condo balconies are awesome (2 of them-one large balcony overlooking the gulf, and another looking toward the intracoastal waterway). The large windows in the living room provided panoramic views of the beach, the gulf, and passing ships. Both the indoor and outdoor pools were very clean and our boys loved swimming in them in between trips to the beach.The owner graciously provides chairs, an umbrella and beach towels for guests, so no need to rent the beach service chairs. The kitchen is spacious and well equipped with modern appliances, pots, pans--everything one might need. It felt like we were at home, at the beach. The beach condition was fine, and there weren't may people there at all. Overall, it was one of the best vacations my family has had in recent memory, and this condominium made the trip. Centrally located, but quiet. We have always vacationed at a different beach and condo every year, but we will likely return here next summer.
