Great Deal, Beautiful Condo
Great Deal, Beautiful Condo

We really enjoyed our visit. The kids were excited to find beach toys in the closet. Movies, books, and games also made the condo feel like a vacation home. We relaxed and did things we don't have time for at home. The kids loved being able to swim in the indoor pool when the weather wasn't great for the beach. The porch was large and the entire family were able to eat outside and watch the sunset and people walking on the beach. The views were beautiful!! The condo was nicely decorated and well stocked with everything we need. With kids, it was GREAT having a washer and dryer! Well worth the money! We will go back.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, adventure seekers, people with disabilities, sightseeing, girls getaway, romantic getaway, families with young children.

This was a great place for a family a stay. We loved that it was right on the beach. We also liked that we could walk to a few restaurants or drive just a short distance to other attractions (the location was great!) The atmosphere was friendly and inviting. We really enjoyed our stay.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, families with young children.

The outside of the building was nice. I didn't see trash around it as someone reviewed. Condo had a great view and location. The owner was extremely helpful throughout the process of renting her condo and when we arrived. Security was a bit of a hassle. We had a ticket on our car twice. Once because they couldn't see the arrival and departure date and the other one said something about a Chevy blazer? Idk what that was about as we were in a land rover. All in all a great trip. Would recommend this condo.Recommended for: Families with young children.

We stayed in this condo in mid-June and found it to be exactly as described both in the VRBO descriptions and in emails with the owner. We appreciated so much her guidance (by email) regarding restaurants, distances to where our son would be working in the area, and "hints." We also appreciated her graciousness in allowing us a few extra hours on the beach with "extended checkout" since the unit was not rented the day we left. There were only three of us (my husband, myself and our adult daughter) with plenty of room for more! We'd love to return! :)Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, girls getaway, families with young children.

I just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you for allowing us to stay at your condo at Tradewinds! We found your condo to be a terrific value, unlike the over-priced properties you typically see on VRBO. My kids have been to Destin before on a class trip, but this was the first trip to Orange Beach and Gulf Shores for my wife and me, even though I’m very well traveled. Between our work and our kid’s school, we were all over-due for a vacation! In any event, thanks again! We sincerely enjoyed the area and will definitely be returning at some point. We were quite taken with the area! The beaches were gorgeous and your location put us in the heart of everything, while affording us enough privacy to do our own thing. Again, many thanks. We had a terrific time!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, families with young children.

My husband and I took our 2 kids last summer to Orange Beach and stayed in this condo. It was a great condo - very roomy. The kitchen was well stocked as well as the entertainment center with games and movies. The views were WONDERFUL and the walk to the beach was short!!! It was right across the street from Adventure Island which was great for night time! We hope to stay in this condo when we return to the beach this summer!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, adventure seekers, girls getaway, romantic getaway, families with young children.

I went along for the weekend with some friends and stayed in this condo (in the front bedroom) late last summer. The room was wonderful that I was in including having a great view of the beach/Gulf. The weather was PERFECT and we sunned ourselves on the beach and used the pool which was wonderful.The condo has TWO views of the Gulf/beach and we even sat on the balcony later that night and just talked and enjoyed the breeze and the view. The kitchen is fully equiped to cook in, and we did eat one meal out and watched a movie. The town is great for entertainment. The condo is perfect for a family or even just a husband and wife, or a girlfriends getaway which is what I was on. Loved the decorations inside the entire condo and the brightness of the rooms. I look forward to hopefully returning to this area and staying in this very same Condo because it was just such a wonderful memory and great place to stay. My stay was VERY afordable as well, which is highly important these days.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, adventure seekers, sightseeing, girls getaway, romantic getaway, families with young children.

We stayed there last year...awesome views from every room and the place was nicely decorated. The condo/kitchen/bathrooms were very clean and the property was well-maintained. Beds were VERY comfy and the pullout couch was fine for the kids. The pool was well-cared for (although we did find a small crab had found it's way in...). The building is also in a pretty decent location for visiting restaurants, etc. I would recommend this condo to anyone looking for a good deal and great location. Can't wait to go back!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, sightseeing, girls getaway, romantic getaway, families with young children.

Why the Owner Chose Tradewinds:
Orange Beach is beautiful and within a few hrs. driving distance from my home. I thought the condo would make a retirement income as well as being a place I could enjoy when not rented.
