We have a beautiful unit with Picturesque views. Resort style complex with all types of amenities. Gulf front view of the beautiful beach from your private balcony.
Our one-bedroom, one bath unit is located on the seventh floor and is tastefully decorated in a tropical decor, updated appliances and furniture throughout. The kitchen is fully-equipped with everything you would ever need on vacation. The living room has a queen-size sofa sleeper, 37-inch flat screen cable TV, CD player with stereo and a DVD/VCR combo. The bedroom also has a 26 in flat screen TV. Your own personal Wi-Fi network in our condo, no sharing so full strength!
The balcony is perfect for relaxing and listening to the surf while enjoying the beautiful gulf views and you can even watch dolphins swim by in the mornings.
The unit is about 500 square foot, which we feel is perfect for a couple or small family. We also have a keyless lock, so no keys to keep up with during your stay. We will assign you a entry code once payment is received.
(Just a note about Privacy here, the one bedroom does not have a door. The bedroom is separated from the living room area by the kitchen and short hallway.)
The landscaping is just beautiful! Lush palm trees and flowers surround the large pool with a rock waterfall. The children's pool is steps away along with a hot tub for the adults. Charcoal grills and picnic tables by the Lagoon are perfect for grilling out by sunset.
The complex also has two lighted tennis courts,shuffleboard, horseshoe pit and so much more! For the boaters, we have a boat ramp and two private piers, one with boat slips. ACROSS THE STREET there is 100' of our private deeded beach with a covered Gazebo for our guests. All this and just a short distance from downtown Gulf Shores, you will find endless restaurants, shopping, and entertainment. You cannot beat this Deal Anywhere in Gulf Shores!

Thanks to Kathy for the perfect early Fall stay at the beach. Weather was perfect! Location is great - far enough out to be quiet but close enough to be near everything we needed. The unit is beautiful and so are the surroundings. View of gulf was great but being on the lagoon is perfect for those who like to fish. Thanks for the great getaway.Did you find this review helpful?

The condo was awesome as usual but this year we got to meet Brian who was staying down the hall. I was able to talk and get fising advice and finally caught fish. I just wanted to thank the both of you for another great stay in Gulf Shores and the best condo in the complex.

Our family spent an amazing week in this condo! It is beautifully decorated and well stocked with everything you might need! The view is absolutely beautiful! We loved getting up every morning and sitting on the balcony and watching the dolphins play in the ocean! And the walk to the beach is very short!! We loved working with Kathy and hope to stay here again, soon!!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

My husband and I just returned home from a long weekend stay at this condo. Everything was very clean and well decorated. The views were beautiful--the beach and ocean from the balcony and the pool and lagoon from the other side. We also loved the location of the condo. The building is about 2 minutes down the road from the most crowded parts of the beach, but it is still very close to every restaurant and major attraction. The quiet and privacy were very nice. We had a great time, and we would definitely reccomend this place!Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, romantic getaway.

This is the second year we have stayed at GSSR Club. Last year we were in 711-A, this year, we were in 705-A. Both condos are beautiful. The condo was very clean and well maintained. Both Kathy and Brian were great to talk to and get information from about surrounding sites, restaurants, and things to do and see. The weather cooperated and was beautiful all 5 nights we stayed. The condo was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The kitchen is modern and has just about everything you need, all we had to do was basically buy the groceries. The bed was very comfortable and we slept great. The restaurants, "The Original Oyster House", LuLu's, Wolf's Bay and Lamberts were wonderful. The amenities at the GSSR Club are the best in Gulf Shores. The pool area had received some upgrades and the fishing piers offered good fishing, although the west pier was not open due to repairs that were being made. The beach was great and the surf fishing even better, in fact we are going to fry up some of the "Whiting" tonight, that we caught while fishing on the beach. We really hated to leave and next year we intend to stay at least 7 nights. If you want a great vacation, then I recommend you contact Brian or Kathy now. It is October 10th and we're already about to submit our request for next September because the schedule fills up in a hurry.Recommended for: Sightseeing, people with disabilities, age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

My girlfriend and I stayed at unit 711 A and loved it. It was perfect for us. We stayed for 5 days and never once had any problems. The air conditioner was amazing as we both like play freeze out at night ;) the view was also very nice. We had the best time and will hopefully be back next year. Thank you Kathy!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with young children.

About the owner: Brian and I fell in love with the Gulf Shores/Orange Beach area the first time we visited the area. Brian is retired after 30 years in Law Enforcement and I also will retire in a couple years from the same large County E911 Bureau. We enjoy sharing our condos along with our other family owned units so everyone can create their own memories at the one of the 'Most Beautiful Beaches in the Country!' Let us help you with your accommodations.
Why the Owner Chose Gulf Shores Surf & Racquet Club:
We fell in love with and purchased 705A in 2006 after staying here several times. We updated the condo with a rich beach decor.
