  To my surprise when I arrived at the condo it was spotless. The appliances looked as if they had never been used. The living area was tastefully done in shades of blue. The bedroom upstairs was cheerful and very comfortable. The unit has free wifi and two flat screen tvs. Beach chairs are provided. The property is very nice and has the only snack bar on the beach. If you rent, there are two wifi network connections use the one "sugar beach". The pass word is on top of the router

  Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway.

  My mom and I chose to come back to OBA for our annual girl's trip since we had such a great experience last year. Everything was the same as we remembered - Clean, comfy, and affordable! We love the convenience of the kitchen for breakfast and packing our lunch. We had dinner out several nights: Big Fish, The Sunset Cork Room, and The Villaggio Grille at the Wharf. Each had pro's and con's, but overall is was good for us. We can hopefully come back at the end of the summer and stay here for the 3rd time!

  Owner response: Thank you so much for choosing us again, we really appreciate your business. Glad you had a good time. Gave us some tips for some new restaurants to try that we have not been to. Thank you for the kind words and taking the time to write a review.

  This was the sweetest little place! We rented as a couple who needed just a quick little get-a-way for some R & R and couple time without all the real-world distractions. The price was excellent, it was quiet, clean, and so comfy. It was one of the first places I have ever stayed where I really felt at home... nothing fussy, nothing fancy, nothing trendy, and every bit welcoming, warm, and homey. Location was great and so close to great places to eat and shop. Provided was a binder full of restaurant menus with pointers to help narrow dinner options down and plenty of cookware if you want to stay in. We will definitely be back next year!!

  Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, tourists without a car, romantic getaway.

  Owner response: We are so glad you had a nice time and enjoyed our condo. Most of our rentors are repeat rentors. We certainly do hope you come back. Thank you so much.

  We enjoyed our visit to Orange Beach. The condo worked well for two adults and two children. The bed upstairs was very comfortable. Best bed we slepted in during the 2200 mile trip. The housekeeper does an excellent job keeping the condo clean for each guest. Having stayed in many hotels, this doesn't appear to be an easy task for some hotels. The location to the beach was great. On the first day the flag was at green for ocean calmness but the next two days it was at a yellow but we and the other vacationers were still able to get out enjoy the ocean. The information on the Web site is accurate. I would recommend this condo to a family member or friend. Close to the state park fishing pier which we caught some fish in the evening. One night we ate at Fish Camp in Orange Beach. It was good and they offered live music. One day we drove over to the USS Alabama and spent about 5+ hours. Another day we went to Alligator Alley located in Summersville. The kids really enjoyed this stop. On the way out, we toured Ft. Morgan and took the ferry to Dauphin Island and then drove over the bridge to the mainland. If I had an opportunity to return to Orange Beach and needed a condo for four or less occupants, the Ludlam's condo would be first on my list. The only negative was we should have came in a day earlier. Poor planning on our part. We could have used another day. There are plenty of things to do in the gulf area.

  Owner response: There truly are lots of things to do in Orange Beach for everyone. Glad you had a great time. We do have the best cleaning lady. We always get nice compliments on how clean the condo is. Thank you.

  This was our first trip and we could not have been happier. The unit was super clean and comfortable. It was well stocked with the basics and nice extras. We loved the short walk to the pools and beach and spent most of our time there. Orange Beach had some fun restaurants, great shopping and a nice water park and putt putt courses. Plenty to do or just sit by the water and relax. Condo owner Janet was a dream to work with in making arrangements. Very friendly and responsive. We will definitely be back.

  Recommended for: Families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.

  Owner response: More and more people are discovering Orange Beach, which is great. We have had such wonderful renters; everyone has said nothing but positive comments about our condo and has left our condo in perfect condition. We try very hard to make your stay with us a pleasant trip so you will want to come back and rent from us again. Thanks for choosing us.

  June 25-July 5, 2011.......Ten wonderful nights at the beach in your beautiful, clean & comfortable condo. After eight stays you know how much we love not only your condo but Orange Beach. It's such a friendly & beautiful location and great for families. We went to the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo in Gulf Shores for the first time and really enjoyed it, also Lulu's, The Hangout & The Wharf are always such great places. Most of the restaurants in Orange Beach and Gulf Shores are all great, just expect long waits. Thanks again for everything.

  Owner response: Brenda and Stacy: Thank you for continually choosing our condo year after year. We really appreciate your business. Thanks for the nice comments and always taking such good care of our condo. You always leave it immaculate. Thank you so much.

  My friend Dale and I just stayed in one of your condos nin Orange Beach, Al. It was like walking into home away from home. Everything was so clean and the upgrades were great. I really enjoyed the clean, nice linens. That means so much when your away from home. We had a blast. Everyone was so friendly and child friendly. We really made some memories with Cade. The furniture was very nice and comfortable as always. I would highly recomend staying in your condo to anyone. We'll be back again! Thanks so much for making everything so comfortable!

  This is absolutely one of the most exceptional vacation rentals I have ever used. It was as described in the ad. The place was spotless, batch and showers had full size bars if bath soap, liquid hand soap dispenser was full, full roll of paper towels, etc. I have never experienced this anywhere else. Janet was a great help working with our schedule. We took 2 of our grandsons who spent a lot of time in the pools (4 of them) and the beach. The property location was perfect for our needs with good security for the facility. We are from Birmingham, AL and go to the beach two to three times a year. We will definitely be returning to the unit. Loved it!

  Owner response: We appreciate you taking the time to write such nice things about us and our condo. We have tired to provide a few extra supplies in our condo so our renters don't have to do a lot of extra shopping and can spend more time doing fun things on their vacation. We always seem to have the nicest renters. We also have an "Awesome Cleaning Lady". Thank you, we appreicate your business.

  My mom and I decided we need a girl's only weekend and found this online at the last minute. It was perfect for the 2 of us. Very quiet condo despite the size of the complex. Super clean and tidy too. We loved that it is next to the state park and there are no other condos on one side. We will be back!

  My family and I stayed in this condo and it was great. It had all the essential you would need. The furniture was comfortable,especially the master bed. It was close to everything. The people that stay at SugarBeach seemed to very frindly and family oriented. The parking was great. We will be staying again. Janet the owner was great during the whole thing.

  This is one of the nicest condos I've ever stayed in and the owners are great to work with in getting your reservations, etc. I highly recommend this condo for anyone looking for a smaller condo to hold 2 to 4 adults. The beach is absolutely beautiful and the pools are kept clean as is the rest of the building.

  We had a great time and the weather was wonderful. The only thing was that we ended up leaving early b'c of hurricane Gustav. We were lucky to get ahead of the traffic. We hope to come back. The 4 pools made it nice b'c it was never crowded and the Sugar Shack, was also a nice touch for snacks and beverages.

  The description was very accurate. Extremely clean and well maintained. The owner was very easy to communicate with and easily contacted. I have already recommended this property to my sisters. My little boy got a kick out of chasing the crabs on the beach at night, and loved having his choice of pools. Bubba's for lunch was awesome. Being right in the middle of Gulf Shores and Florida, we were able to visit public beaches to look for shells and do a little shopping also. It was so nice to have everything we needed at the condo (the owner obviously put a lot of thought into that), and being right on the beach was very convenient. I will definitely stay in this condo on future visits to the beach.
