The Ocean House complex is located directly on the sugar white sands of the Gulf of Mexico, less than a mile west of Highway 59, Gulf Shores' main hub. Besides the fantastic location, guests can enjoy features like easy access to the beach, swimming in Gulf Shores' longest pool, Wi-Fi access, and beautifully landscaped grounds with two gazebos, two kiddie pools and a BBQ area.
Our three bedroom, corner unit has breathtaking views of the Gulf of Mexico from a large beach-side balcony and beautiful sights of Little Lagoon and Bon Secour Bay from the master bedroom balcony. Each bedroom offers a comfortable place to relax each night and private bathrooms with a tub/ shower. The living and dining rooms are decorated nicely and have plenty of space to relax or entertain. The kitchen is fully stocked with all of the tools needed to make a feast, has ample counter and cabinet space and includes the convenience of a washer/dryer in unit.
We've gone to great lengths to make our condo a 'home away from home' for ourselves and guests, so whether you enjoy lounging on the beach, some of the best golf Alabama has to offer, or taking bike rides down Ocean Beach Boulevard this is the perfect rental for you.

We really enjoyed our weekend stay in this condo. The view is fantastic, and the beds are big. The owner was also very responsive to any questions we had. Thanks again for letting us stay in your beautiful condo Colleen!Owner response: Lee, Thank you for the nice review. I am so glad you enjoyed your birthday at the beach. The view from the balcony sure is awesome, especially when you see the dolphins playing in the water. Hope you get to return in the future.

My rating of our 2 month stay (early Jan. to early Mar. 2013) would have been higher except for a major exterior painting project for the whole building. It was no fault of the condo owner. The condo was very clean and in good condition. We would have rented it for the same time next year except it is not available.Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, age 55+.
Owner response: Thank you for your review of your stay in my condo. Unfortunately winter is the slowest time for renters so most of the bigger projects are done at that time. It takes those projects to maintain our beautiful property. I hope you find a condo for your next winter away from the cold and snow of the midwest.

The condo was clean and the description and photos accurately reflected the appearance. I would stay here again. We came at the time they were doing beach replenishment so we were able to dig and find so many shells I had to go to Target and buy a container to bring them home. It was a good time. I would recommend driving to Mobile and touring the U.S.S Alabama and going to Pensacola's Naval Aviation Museum. It was a great vacation and would recommend this condo to anyone.Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, sightseeing, age 55+, girls getaway.
Owner response: Thank you for your review of my condo. I am glad that you enjoyed your stay and the suggestions you made were great. We appreciate the ideas of our guests. My family has gone to the Alabama and also enjoyed it very much. I hope you have the opportunity to return to Gulf Shores and the beautiful beach in the future, it just has a way of welcoming you back time after time.

Nice clean large condo, nicely decorated. Shower heads no so great, bathroom fixtures could use some updating . Master bedroom on lagoon side noisy, we were woken up every morning around 4:30 am by garbage trucks empting dumpster. But all said and done, would love to go back.Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, age 55+.
Owner response: I will be going to my condo for a month in the Fall to check on things that need to be taken care of for future guests. Thank you for your suggestions regarding the shower heads and fixtures.

With my kids getting older, I wanted to plan one last family vacation. I couldn't have picked a better place to stay. The condo was clean and exactly as described in the listing. The view from the balcony was amazing. I would recommend this condo to anyone. In fact, my friends and I are talking about maybe taking a "girl's" vacation next year and will certainly see if Colleen's condo is available. Colleen always responded to any questions I had within a few hours. There are lots of nearby activities and restaurants to the condo. LuLu's is a short drive and worth the trip. Pier 33 is a great convenience store that is about 1/4 of a mile (if that) down the road. We were there often grabbing snacks for hungry teenagers! Doc's Seafood was also not far away, very good and reasonably priced. Thanks again for allowing us to use your home.Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, sightseeing, age 55+, girls getaway.
Owner response: Thank you for the great review, I am so glad that you enjoyed your stay. Gulf Shores is a great place for family vacations as well as "girls trips". I have done it in the past with girlfriends and we really enjoyed our time, great restaurants, lots of shopping and laughs. Not to mention gulf, pool, sun and sand.

We loved the condo and will rent it again in the future. It was clean and ready for us when we got there. The view was super. The condo had plenty of room for three couples to spend a week together, both collectively and individually. There were plenty of dishes-we cooked several nights. We could not have asked for a better condo.Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, age 55+, adventure seekers, girls getaway.
Owner response: Thank you for your review of my condo. I am delighted that you had such a comfortable stay and that you enjoyed Gulf Shores. It is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the views.

Location
Owner info
Year Purchased: 1998
About the owner: We are from the Metro-Milwaukee area of Wisconsin (Germantown) and do everything that we can to escape the Midwest and visit Gulf Shores at least twice a year. Colleen, Angela and Joe
Why the Owner Chose Ocean House I:
The 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 Condo:
Our 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.
