QUIET & PEACEFUL GULF-FRONT ESCAPE! Condo next to nature preserve means room to enjoy the beautiful beach!
If you are looking for a great place to escape, this unit is a perfect spot to enjoy the beauty of the Gulf’s white sand, sunrises & sunsets, dolphin sightings, surf and more! This 2 bedroom, 2 bath Gulf-front condo is one of the most private condos in Orange Beach. A one-mile strip of nature preserve neighboring the condos means the beach will never be congested and makes WindDrift a continually sought-after place to stay. It’s simply a great place for families and friends to enjoy time together in a great location!
Located between the Perdido Pass Bridge and the Florida-Alabama state line (where you’ll find famed “FloraBama”), across from Ono Island, WindDrift allows you to enjoy the closeness of restaurants, shopping, etc. while also enjoying the peacefulness of the open beach. It is also a low-density building (7 floors), which means less congestion for you.
Inside the unit you’ll find a very spacious home away from home, tastefully decorated with ceramic tile and great artwork, and a great ocean view from the 6th floor balcony. It’s also well outfitted for guests. There is a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable dining table as well as eat-in-bar with stools, wet bar and den in one open area. Bedrooms are the perfect place to unwind; one king bed, two twin beds, and a sleeper sofa are available for guests (sleeps 4-6). TVs are provided in all bedrooms and high speed Internet access keeps you connected (if you want to be)!
Amenities include a large outdoor pool and two lighted tennis courts. Guests can enjoy boating and fishing on Ole River, across the street, and boat/jet ski slips are available.
There are several great restaurants and grocery stores within a few miles from the unit, as well as marinas to take fishing trips or simply watch the boats come in each day. The Wharf, located on the intercoastal, features shopping restaurants, a 15-screen movie complex, 10,000-seat Amphitheater and the tallest ferris wheel in the Southeast. There are also several other family entertainment options with Waterville USA, putt-putt golf, go-carts, etc. In Foley, you’ll find Tanger Center Outlet where great deals can be found on clothing and other household items.

We stayed in this condo for a week and it was clean when we arrived. The owner was very helpful in answering our questions. We will definitely be staying in this condo again. The beach is very close and my kids had a blast. The condo is actually bigger than the photos lead you to believe, which is a HUGE bonus.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, families with young children, adventure seekers.

My wife and I spent a week in this condo recently. We have stayed in Orange Beach in different condos for years, but this is the nicest one we've found. The Gulf is about 100 feet from the end of the short boardwalk. The security is terrific and the guard was friendly and helpful. The condo itself is located on sixth floor which makes for a breathtaking view. Next door is a wildlife preserve, so there are no buildings from there all the way to Alabama Point. The owner is easy to work with and added to the experience. Big place! Everything worked - tvs, dvds, etc. Hot water and plenty of it. The master bedroom bed was like sleeping on a cloud! We watched dolphins, fishermen, birds, and about a million butterflys. The condo is located across from Ono Island, away from the hustle and bustle of the "strip", but only a couple of miles from the grocery stores and other needful things. We had one of the best, most relaxing vacations in many years. We highly recommend this condo.Recommended for: Romantic getaway, age 55+.

This is a terrific beach front condo on an uncrowded area of Orange Beach but still convenient to activities, attractions, grocery stores and restaurants. Great artwork. Fantastic sixth floor gulf front view. The unit has a larger than average kitchen including a separate pantry. It also has a full size washer and dryer. Most units that I've rented in the past have small capacity stacking units.We had guests from Georgia who have their own condo on St. Simon Island. They were thrilled with this unit. I've already recommended this unit to another friend. We'll be back.Recommended for: Romantic getaway, age 55+, girls getaway.
