We had a wonderful week in your beautiful condo! It is very family friendly and clean - loved the view from the eigth floor. The first of the week was quite cool with a north wind. The ocean was the calmest we've ever seen and the girls were able to swim and find shells on the ocean floor. The heated indoor pool was a great plus and we were able to enjoy the beautiful outdoor pool later in the week when the weather warmed up. Access to the beach was great and the pools were well gated (great when you have children). On Tuesday a fishing boat cast its net out to fish for mullet and we saw dolphins feeding around the net. The girls were so thrilled! The waves were perfect for boogie boarding on Thursday! On Friday schools of sting rays were swimming through the waves close to the shore. They were amazing to watch. Publix/Walmart and lots of local shops were right down the street. We had a fun trip to the zoo and a great lunch at Sea n' Suds. Thank you for sharing your vacation home with us for the week!
Owner response:We agree! We love Orange Beach and Romar Place! We are glad you had such a wonderful time and were able to see so much sea life. We hope you will come back again soon! Best wishes, The Cliftons

Our family of 5 stayed in this condo in July 2011. Plenty of space for everyone! Great views from the master bedroom and living area. Kitchen so wonderfully stocked! The rental was exactly as described on the VRBO site. Owner was great to work with. The building is smaller than the big high rise condos, which translates into a less crowded beach and pool. We loved the indoor pool option. Lots of restaurants nearby, and we easily found a movie theatre, water park, putt-putt golf, and a go-cart track. We would love to stay in this condo again sometime!
Owner response:You are right about the lower density building making for a less crowded pool and beach area! We are glad you enjoyed your stay in our home-away-from-home and hope you will come back soon!

A Beautiful Week Away

The day my husband retired we hopped in the car and drove down to our favorite place - Orange Beach. The condo was bright and cheery. We walked right out on the deck to enjoy the beautiful view of the ocean before making supper in the well equipped kitchen. When down by the pool it is an added bonus to have restrooms right outside. Grills are available for use although we only enjoyed the smell of others cooking their dinners. Walking the beach was one of our favorite things to do. The sand is so white and soft. The ocean was both relaxing to watch and refreshing to walk in. Thanks so much for letting us rent your condo!!
Owner response:We hope retirement is all you both hope it to be. Like you, we have only enjoyed the aroma from others cooking on the patio grills, but have found that many take advantage of the grills. We are glad you enjoyed your stay in our home-away-from-home and hope you will come back again soon.

We loved staying in this condo. The pictures and description were accurate. Only it did not tell how well her kitchen was stocked. They provided better cookware than I use at home. It was clean and nicely decorated. We had 5 adults and 2 children and had plenty of room for all of us. The indoor and outdoor pools and white sandy beachs made for a pleasurable vacation. We would recommend this property to anyone.
Owner response:We are pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. We do try very hard to keep our kitchen well stocked and our unit clean and updated. Our family also enjoy having "real" beds for 7-8 people in bedrooms so that no one has to sleep in the main living area. We hope you will come back again soon!

Our family just returned for a stay a the condo the week of April 4th. The weather was a little hit or miss, however, the wonderful views and indoor pool more than compensated for my 5 and 7 year old swimmers. Condo was laid out great for families and was very conveniently located to several restaurants and grocery stores (Winn Dixie and Publix's). We tried many of the local restaurants and recommend Tacky Jacks for breakfast, Cobalt for a nice dinner and best of all LuLu's for the whole family. Owners were very easy to deal with and have nicely appointed the condo with everything you would need. Would definitely come back! Jen S. Rochester, Michigan
Owner response:We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us! Since we spend our beach time here as well, we do our best to equip our place in a manner that pleases everyone. The indoor pool is enjoyed year round but most especially in the winter and spring! We too love our location in Orange Beach. Thanks for staying with us and we hope you will come back again soon!

This is a wonderful condo. The split bedroom design of this condo is great for when one needs their own quiet time from the others. The "VIEW" is at times breathtaking from the balcony. The condo is locate on the eight floor which makes it perfect to see the sun rise and set over the gulf. There is nothing better than having a morning cup of coffee on the balcony and watch the sunrise. I have to say I was concerned with this being located in an area with so many other condos, but it was quiet and we had privacy. At the same time the location of the condo is close enough to walk to stores, resturants and of course the beach. My family and I will definately return again!
Owner response:We are glad you enjoyed your stay and hope you will come back soon! We picked our location in Orange Beach because it is a lower density complex allowing for peace and quiet when desired yet close enough to stores, restaurants and beach life when desired. Everyone enjoys the sunsets and sunrises from our balcony!

Excellent 3/2 unit, colorful, well furnished, enjoyed sunsets from balcony and peaceful walks on the beach. Lots of nearby eating- restaurants, groceries, shopping and recreation spots. Especially special as we shared it with old friends from college. Will definitely return!!
Owner response:We are glad you enjoyed your stay in our "home-away-from home". We agree the sunsets (and sunrises) are spectacular from our balcony and also enjoy long walks on the beach. We hope you will come back again soon!

Thanks for preparing everything for us. We enjoyed everything about your beautiful condo. I loved all your colors. Full moon was just outstanding! We like nothing better than waking up and looking out at the Gulf. Sitting on the "veranda" was so special. The only requirement that my husband wants is that his laptop works, and it did. I can't think of anything that we wanted that you didn't have available for us. Even with the 8th day...just not enough time. Sandra Cohron
Owner response:We were happy to have you and glad you found everything in order. We too like our cheerful, bright colors and decor - it just feels like we are at the beach! We provide wireless internet because when work has to be done it is nice to be able to do it on our balcony!

What a relaxing week I've just had with friends. The condo was great! Truly a vacation destination. You had everything we needed in the kitchen to prepare our meals. Beds were comfortable and all was clean. The beach was beautiful! Walking on the highway was not fun but what a great state park trail we found off 161 by Publix. I hope to visit again!
Owner response:We try to keep our kitchen well stocked and often get compliments on the quantity and quality of our kitchen equipment. We want to make sure we have everything needed for those who like to cook but also picked our location due to its proximity to numerous great restaurants for those who choose not to cook. You are welcome anytime!

We loved our time at this condominium. The nautical decor was very cheery. We loved the layout, with the master bedroom separated from the children's bedrooms. The appliances were nice, and the showers were great. There was even dishwashing liquid, which no rental ever has! Everything was lovely - thank you for making us feel at home!
Owner response:We are glad you enjoyed your stay. It is our goal to provide an updated, welcoming and comfortable environment in which to enjoy time at the beach with family and friends.

"I think we must be dreaming..!" The healing sway of the waves and tide. The color of the water is often like liquid emerald glass - we go home happier than when we first arrived. How can we say "THANK YOU"?! We appreciate so much the "home away from home," the length of stay, and felt your hospitality though not here. Your family picture is like a "welcome and greeting" - Special Care- Next year yes!

What a glorious week! The weather & beach were perfect. We absolutely L-O-V-E your home. We've been vacationing in this area for many years & your place is by far our favorite! Our 17 month old loved to watch the birds from the balcony (but she wasn't too crazy about the sand.) We hope to stay here again next year!
