The view from this condo is absolutely amazing!!! Sitting on the balcony was so relaxing and one of my favorite parts of the vacation! We loved the location and enjoyed walking to the pier, where my husband could be found fishing. We also enjoyed walking to The Hangout for lunch. (Too long of a wait at dinner time!) We went on a bottom fishing charter boat trip out of Zekes and caught a ton of fish. I would highly recommend this property. Parking was convenient and nice to have in a covered structure. It was great to have several elevators. The owner was always very promt in responding to any questions we had. The beds and furniture were very comfortable. We cooked almost every meal in the condo. (We had everything we needed, however, a 13" x 9" baking dish would have been handy more than once. Also, a few more dish towels would have been great!) The laundry room was spacious and in a perfect spot! This is a great place to spend your vacation!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, families with young children, romantic getaway, adventure seekers.
Owner response: Thanks for the review! Come back soon and thanks for taking care of my condo. I will get those kitchen items taken care of for next time. Have a good one, Jason

Beautiful, clean condo with an emphasis on COMFORT. Very comfortable beds and sofa, super soft sheets and towels, lots of pillows for an added touch. Walk to restaurants or to miniature golf. I'd recommend this condo and this owner to anyone looking for a nice vacation rental. A+ experience, start to finish.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, people with disabilities, sightseeing, families with young children, romantic getaway, adventure seekers.
Owner response: Thanks for the review and more importantly thanks for staying at my place on the beach. Come back soon and have a great summer. Jason

This condo is beautiful and inviting! Our family of 5 (two 4 year olds and 1 six year old) + 1 (sister in law) fit perfectly and enjoyed every minute of our vacation. The bright colors and floor to ceiling window doors really set the tone! The beds and linens were the most comfortable I have ever slept in. I will be on the lookout to purchase some just like it, so I can get sleep at home like I did the past few nights!!! One of my 4 year olds slept on the couch every night, because he wanted to crack the sliding door and "hear the dolphins" :) I also cooked a full meal one night that we were there and there was NOTHING more I could have needed to feed a family of 6. I soaked in a long, hot bath while there and the tub was very relaxing. Don't skip out on that, have at least one bath! (I put the flameless candles from the living room onto the tub) All of the features are exactly as pictured... the couch is a soft denim, which was a quirky touch that my kids got a huge kick out of. "Mom, the couch is made out of jeans" We used the washer and dryer more than once and it worked like a charm! Before, during, and after our stay, Jason was extremely helpful and punctual with communication. We greatly appreciated that! Our son broke his arm right before the trip and he helped us find a way to ship a waterproof cast cover to the condo, to be received upon arrival. We had a couple other things we needed assistance with when we first got there and he was available to help, and got back to us with answers ASAP! As for things to do... I could list every place we ate. BUT, what really stood out to me was.... we went on a fishing charter with "Captain Gary" (I wrote his phone number in the guest book) The deckhand, John, recommended that we take our fresh fish to Mikee's and have them cook it for us. We did, and the pan-grilled option was the best fish I have ever eaten in my life. (we had sheepshead and triggerfish) I am convinced that they are the best fishing boat (with the best people skills and prices) and that Mikee's is the best restaurant! Desoto's is a good lunch spot, too. Visit Fort Morgan and Dauphin Island, you won't be disappointed! The same four year old who listened to the dolphins as he fell asleep CRIED hysterically (and made himself sick) when it was time to go. So, as promised to him, we will be back again. (and again, and again) Looking forward to our next trip!Recommended for: Tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing, families with young children, romantic getaway, adventure seekers.
Owner response: Wow! Thanks for such a wonderful review and even more importantly thanks for enjoying my place at the beach and being such great guests. Come back soon! Jason

We had the greatest time this weekend! Jason was great to work with and the condo exceeded any expectations we had. The decor was gorgeous! I agree with a previous review--this is the cleanest place I have ever stayed in. The building was also maintained well. We would come back in a heartbeat and so glad we chose this condo. We also found Lulu's. Which was fantastic for our boys (5 and 8) because they could play in the sand while we were able to sit back and relax. All in all great vacation!!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing, families with young children, romantic getaway.
Owner response: Susie, Thanks again for staying and it's nice to know you enjoyed your vacation. Come back soon! Have a good one, Jason

Our family has made three trips to Gulf Shores in the last four years. This was by far the best trip yet. A big part of that is this excellent condo. The owner was easy to work with and returned all emails and answered all inquiries quickly. We will definitely work with the owner again for future visits to Gulf Shores.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, families with young children.
Owner response: Thanks Tad, You all are welcome back again anytime. I am very glad you enjoyed your stay. That is what matters the most. Have a good one, Jason

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your beautifully decorated condo. This was our first time visiting Alabama, thanks for making our stay so comfortable, cozy, and memorable! We brought 2 of our 4 boys, and they "Survived" the "girly" decor of the second bedroom and have to say, their most favorite spot was spending time in the sleeping nook !!:) My husband and I marveled at all of the dolphins right outside the condo's view! He brought along binoculars as well as a spotting scope ( he is also a bird watcher) and it was amazing seeing the dolphins, birds and parasailers up so close. The beach was spectacular and so fun to walk along each and every day. We were blessed with lovely weather our entire stay. We will be telling our friends and family how great Gulf Shores is and would recommend your condo. We absolutely loved it here! The L. O. N. G drive was so worth it. We could get used to this! Thanks so much for sharing your condo with us.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, romantic getaway.
Owner response: Thanks so much for the great review. I'm watching dolphins play as I write this. Come back soon and remember the ocean heals all wounds. God Bless

There is no way to describe our stay in your condo. We had a wonderful time on the beach. The only downside to the trip was having to leave. The condo is superbly decorated. It is evident that much planning and thought went in to this. Checking in via the key box is much, much better than having to go anywhere, in even hotels, and wait in line to do check in. The view as you open the door is breath-taking, looking out the patio door as you come in the condo and seeing the beach. WOW, what a sight! This is the first time that we have used a VRBO. I was skeptical to say the least. Your description of the property was perfect. There were no surprises. You made me a believer in VRBO. Thanks! We are planning a return trip. We will certainly look to work with you again.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with young children, romantic getaway.
Owner response: Thanks Roger and Linda for staying and taking such great care of our condo. I am so happy so enjoyed your vacation and the booking process. Come back anytime! Have a good one, Jason

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2006
About the owner: My family and I love the Beach and everything about it. There is nothing more relaxing than listening to the Ocean. We live in Franklin, TN just 7 hours North of Gulf Shores. We enjoy living in the small community of Franklin but never pass up the chance to head to Gulf Shores. Aside from owning 3 condos in Gulf Shores (Epic Properties, LLC.) I am also involved in Granite Industries (Scaffold, Seating and Staging Manufacturer). I hope you can stay with us and enjoy the Ocean as much as we do.
Why the Owner Chose Lighthouse Condominiums:
Gulf Shores is a great location and there is so much to do, or you can sit back and relax. Since the hurricanes it has been rebuilt and cleaned up and looks great.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
We enjoy walking, golfing, fishing, shopping, crabbing, eating and relaxing all the time.
