                    A wonderful vacation on the beautiful white shores of the Gulf. The "Southern Charm" condo is comfortable, bright, cheerful and relaxing. The perfect place to relax, revive, and renew. The flat rate pricing is a bonus. No calculating costs, and no surprise fees. One rate and you are done. The owners have taken extra care in furnishing the unit, and having an in unit washer and dryer are always a plus when on vacation at the beach. Our trip to Southern Charm at Gulf Shores was too short. We had a wonderful time and plan to return again. Thank you to the owners for sharing their condo!

                    This location, the view to the beach from the balcony, the sound of waves in the bedroom, the comfortable condo and decorating, all scream "take off your shoes, wind down, and have a relaxing time. Great time was had by all!

                    We had a special R&R at Southern Charm. Homey and comfortable condo. The level was just right. Sitting inside felt like being on a criuse ship. Sitting on the balcony was like our own piece of heaven. The location was perfect for us. Quiet and yet close to where we wanted to go. We ate out once a day while there. So many good places to eat, so little time to go to them all. We love Sea and Suds and just made it before they closed for there annual shutdown. Some of our favorite places called us back to eat more than once. Desota's, Lamberts, Oyster house, Shrimp Basket, Ribs and Reds were great. Also had lunch at Kittys Kafe twice and Hazels on Orange beach was excellent too many to remember them all. My friend and I spent many hours at Tanger outlet and you really must go to the Pier. The 2$ fee is well worth the money. We did not need to go anywhere to watch the sunrise or sunset. All we needed to do was step out on the balcony and we could enjoy the beauty of both right from where we were. My friend went out , on the night of the meteorites and the chaise lounge was the perfect spot. Lie on your back and watch them speed across the sky. It was a perfect clear night and nothing between her and the sky. Wonderful!!! They were replentishing the beach while we were there and it did make for some noisy nights, but watching them pump the sand from the deep and spread it with such precision on the shore was interesting. They were right in front of our condo for the last 2 nights we were there and the beach was closed in front of us. No real problem for me as the beach is too hard for me to walk on anyway, and my best time is spent looking from above and watching the changing beauty of God's creation. Whether sunny or stormy, the gulf is so restful and my heart is happiest when I can just be there. Thank you Wycliffs, for giving us one of the best beach stays of our life. I really like that you include all fees in the cost. It makes it so easy to plan with no extras to count. I will always look back on our time at Island Royale with a grateful heart. We could only manage to stay for a month this year, but perhaps our Snowbird hearts can be extended next year, Blessed beyond speach.

                    We had a wonderful, relaxing month long vacation at this condo. It was beautiful, spacious and nicely decorated. Our favorite place was the large balcony overlooking the gulf. We ate all our meals out there watching the birds and people frolicking on the beach. Even saw dolphins twice. The area surrounding the condo was great. First viist to Alabama and it is a beautiful place. Enjoyed many of the close by restaurants. Love the hamburgers at Bahama Bobs. Also enjoyed the Shrimp Fest which was walking distance from the condo. My husband enjoyed fishing at the Gulf Shores Park Pier. We had the most gorgeous weather. From day 1 it was warm and sunny. It rained one morning but the sun was out by the afternoon. Did not relish going home to temps in the 40's. Thanks so much to Tom and Ellen for sharing this little paradise with us. Hope to return next year.
