Year Purchased: 1998
Why the Owner Chose Ocean House IThe weather in the Midwest can be pretty unforgiving, especially in Winter, so we started making annual trips to Gulf Shores over 18 years ago to enjoy a slice of paradise. After stays in a few different condo complexes, we found Ocean House was our favorite for many reasons and decided to become owners.
The Unique Benefits at this CondoOur condo is a corner unit with two balconies, perfect for dolphin spotting in the early morning. Privacy is something we value and Ocean House affords that by only having 6 units on each floor making for a peaceful stay. It's just a short walk to the many convenience stores, gift shops and beach side restaurants that line Ocean Beach Boulevard so you couldn't ask for a better location.

Our family loved staying at Ocean House and this spacious Condo. The 3b/3b was perfect for our large family. The "king" master bedroom is very large with a balcony overlooking the bay. We also enjoyed the 9th floor view and ate our breakfast from the large balcony overlooking the gulf. The kids loved the huge swimming pool and it is just a few steps to the beautiful Gulf Shores beach! This property is conveniently located to all the local activities and attractions. The accommodations were perfect for our family and we will certainly return to this Condo next summer.
Owner response:Thank you for your review. I am so glad you had a wonderful time in my condo and you will return in the future. Our beach is so beautiful and should be enjoyed by young and old alike.

Beautiful 9th Floor Condo, newly decorated
Guest: Anonymous
Date of Stay: 05/08/10
Review Submitted: 06/24/10
Very nice condo, new kitchen, towels and linens, etc. We've stayed in 2 bedrooms in Ocean House before but we "upgraded" to a 3 bedroom - definitely worth it. The master suite was a nice private area and having 3 bathrooms was great. The pool area is fantastic if you have small children - zero entry pool, small kiddie pools with a pergola on each side for shade while you watch the kids. The pool is not overrun with children either, if you need a break. Thanks Colleen!
Owner response:I am so glad you enjoyed your stay in Gulf Shores and I hope you have the opportunity to return. Everyone that spends time at that beautiful complex wants to come back. The beach is so beautiful and relaxing.
