Romantic corner hideaway for a couple, peaceful watercolor retreat for the work-weary, you'll have an unbeatable beach view from the panoramic windows and balcony doors of this Gulf Shores Plantation Building 5 sunsuite, so be ready to grab one of the body surfing boards provided inside and head for the ocean or just relax, listen to the water, and watch dolphins play from its sunny interior. Enjoy the condo basketball and badminton set, the television with builtin DVD. When it comes to relaxation, try our new Perfect Sleeper mattress on your queen bed.

A condo Sunsuite means one big room, divided into areas for relaxing watching television, sleeping, cooking and eating, plus a separate bathroom. The previous owner's winter guest couple stayed two and a half months, and assured me they found it "delightful". And that was before we repainted and redecorated with water colors and a surfing theme complete with surfer wall mural painted by a local artist. When you reserve, ask for the lockbox code to our new hot tubs on the first floor, and newly-renovated exercise room...just in case you feel ambitious! Or take your bike and ride around the complex - there are bike racks provided for you. There is a door lockbox with key inside or you can choose a key by mail to be mailed back after your stay. Please come and be surprised by how nice a small beach condo can be, and what a view!!

Although we are too old for riding surfboards (and far too heavy!) I just love the idea. My husband, an old Navy man, had been hoping for an anchor theme!?? Maybe next time...

"Surf's up" Beachfront Sunsuite - Perfect Couples Corner Condo
5/5

Fantastic! Better than expected!!

Guest: Mandy (KY)
Date of Stay: 08/03/11 Review Submitted: 08/07/11

As a habitual vacationer, I've rented unit after unit from different owners- Surf's Up us definitely one that exceeds its write-up! The sq. footage is very well utilized and hives the impression of a much larger unit than just a sunsuite. While we did not have our 2 children w/us thus time, it could have easily handled the 4 of us. Located on the corner helped to keep the normal outside noise down. And the view... we could not ask for a better view! The only drawback was the elevator, the unit is located at the opposite end of the long hall- so we took the stairs often, no need for the exercise facility... ;-) We had a fabulous time! Weather was great and the unit was everything we needed and more! Thanks again!!

We spent a week in July at the condo and we loved it! The area is wonderful, the condo was neat and clean and cozy and so cute! The beaches were great and private, so not overly crowded. We would recommend definitely!!

My husband and I stayed at Surf's Up from June 23 - 27, 2011. This sun suite is quiet, clean and has a wonderful view. The owner's are quick to respond to any questions and are very helpful. We recommend this condo to any couple or small family wanting to enjoy the peaceful side of gulf shores.

Beautiful condo, Relaxing Atmosphere

Guest: Margie & Tony (Vicksburg, MS)
Date of Stay: 06/13/11 Review Submitted: 06/22/11

My husband and I celebrated our 42nd wedding anniversary at Surf's Up from 13-17 June 2011. The listing description doesn't do the condo justice. It is exceptionally clean, well decorated, loaded with amenities, and has a great beach front view from the balcony. We enjoyed our early morning coffee out there every day. We have already recommended this condo to my sister and her husband. We've known Linda for many years, and working with her was a pleasure. Linda & Rad: Thanks for sharing your relaxing getaway!!!

Owner response:Margie, I appreciate your 5-star review of "Surf's Up" and thank you for the Sister Referral - she and her new husband are going on Friday for five days. Word-of-Mouth is really the best advertising! Linda

Great Cozy Condo!!!

Guest: Cain and Melissa (Indiana)
Date of Stay: 05/01/10 Review Submitted: 05/19/10

We stayed here 5/1 - 5/8 of this year for our one year anniversary. We LOVED it! It was perfect for just two people! We didn't need a big space and when I saw this one for the price we thought it would be great! The condo looks just as the pictures show with the exception to the beach view it is even BETTER in person! We loved to be able to sit on the couch and just turn to see the beach! The pools were nice, the gounds were kept very clean, and not too busy. The beach was clean and not crowded! We were about 15 min away from Gulf Shores; but that made it perfect because it made it less crowded at our resort. Linda was great to work with; she answered all questions I had quick and very friendly. She is very nice and respectful with all questions you have! We will definitely recommend this to friends and family and hope to return soon!!

Owner response:I'm always honored when my condo is chosen for someone's special occasion, such as Melissa and Cain's first wedding anniversary, and learning from comments she sent that it exceeded their expectations just made my day! Linda

Excellent Family Getaway!!

Guest: ArchImages (Lebanon, TN)
Date of Stay: 04/10/10 Review Submitted: 04/19/10

We really enjoyed our time here. Convenient to the beach and several pools. This was a clean, comfortable stay. The owner was detailed and congenial. Pros: *This is a private and secure location. *The layout of the space allows for a refreshing sea breeze to flow through all day. *It is a few miles from the Gulf Shores' crowds but a Dollar General is convenient for beach and condo supplies. *No beach crowds Cons: *Condo is on the 4th floor and the opposite end of the building from the elevators... long walk. However, it is next to the stairs that land on the beach access... if you don't mind stairs. *Daily breezes create suction on the condo door that will cause the door to slam - loud! This was our first trip to this area and we will surely be contacting the owner again in the future. I have recommended this unit to several of my friends.

Owner response:Since close proximity to Dollar General was listed as a major Pro for my condo, can anybody guess where this reviewer works? I predict a bright future with the company and hope he won't be too busy to come back often! Meantime we're going to work on that door-slamming problem! Linda

Fantastic location and beautiful condo!

Guest: Katie and Jason (New Orleans)
Date of Stay: 03/05/10 Review Submitted: 04/17/10

We stayed at Surf's up" the first weekend in Marcn and it was truly a beautiful condo - the pictures did not do it justice in the least! It was well-decorated, the convenience to the beach was perfect, the balcony and panoramic views were stunning, and the whole experience at Gulf Shores Plantation was a true treat. We will absolutely be in touch about going back to stay when the next chance arises and have already referred to some friends.

Owner response:I appreciate so much guests taking the time to write a complimentary review of my condo, "Surf's Up" because there may be some anxiety on the part of prospective guests about getting what they trust they have paid for - a clean condo with a great view of the beach, and I work hard to provide what is expected...only this week ordered a new Perfect Sleeper mattress for this condo and plan to drive down this weekend to make sure it is what I ordered. Linda
