We had a wonderful time at the condo. This was my twins first time at the beach. They loved the bunk beds. The layout and space were perfect. The boys are already asking when we can go back. Ramon, is so helpful.

Our high school baseball team and families all go to Gulf Shores on spring break for baseball and a little fun on the beach. We had a great time and LOVED Ramon's condo we rented from him. He was great about returning calls and speaking to me on any issues I had. His place was decorated so nicely and we will definitely be calling on him again! You will not be disappointed. Can't wait to go back!

Owner response:Thanks Lisa You and your baseball team are welcome back anytime. Ramon

My husband and I recently stayed at a condo January 28-31. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The bed was very comfy complimented with nice quality bedding and towels in the bath. Ramon made the rental so easy by calling before we left to give the access code for the key, advising us where to park and answered all our questions. We were fortunate to have 65 degree weather with beautiful blue skies in January. The view from the balcony was exactly the view you see in the photos, we even were surprised by the occasional pelican that we saw fly by... while eating breakfast overlooking the beautiful ocean view - it was awesome! We sat by the pool and enjoy the sunshine. The hot tub was a great evening highlight. We enjoyed walks on the most beautiful pristine white sandy beaches we have every seen! We would recommend and plan to go back and stay again. Beautiful views, great dining nearby and a totally relaxing vacation! This is a great condo to rent, what you see in the photos is true to the actual layout and view and it is a really great value!

Owner response:Thank you so much for sharing your experience at the condo with us and with everyone else...we feel the same way and try to make it out to the Condo ourselves every chance we get.Thanks and come back soon. Ramon

What a Great Condo!!!

My friend & I had a wonderful time on our annual girl's trip! This condo was fabulous, fully stocked, clean and with a beautiful view. We were within walking distance to a lot of restaurants and shops. We stayed a week and got to eat at some of our favorite restaurants but tried some new ones! We tried a place called The Dog House Grille which had the best hot dogs I have eaten with anything imaginable on it! I am actually from the Carolinas and the had a Carolina Hot Dog, it reminded me of home! We tried the Shrimp Basket and Bahama Bob's and they too were great! Ramon was so easy to work with and made sure everything was perfect for us! Thanks Ramon!

Owner response:Thank you so much, I am glad you and your friends had a wonderful time, I love how close the restaurants are and the shopping also...I know my two girls do also because my wallet hurts after they get done with their shopping. The Lighthouse Condo is a great get away. Warm regards Ramon

This condo is fabulous, beautifully decorated, beautiful view of the Gulf, just all around a wonderful place. Ramon is so great to deal with, very easy rent. We have never been to Gulf Shores and this experience was one of the best of any vacation we have ever been on. Don't hestitate if you are thinking about it. There is so much to do around and we saw so much marine life. A dolphin put on a show for everyone the day before we left he was jumping up and out for almost an hour. We saw dolphin every morning from our balcony. Parasailing is quite awedome too. Thanks so much Ramon and family for sharing this beautiful condo. A vacation of a lifetime with lifetime memories.

Lighthouse Condo

Guest: Vallery (Mississippi)
Date of Stay: 06/09/11 Review Submitted: 06/12/11

The condo was great--fabulous view of the water! Ramon was easy to work with and the condo, the property, and the beach lived up to the pictures! I only wanted to book for a few days (for a birthday surprise for my aunt) and Ramon had a couple of nights open and was willing to help me out. The location was nice--easy to get to lots of restaurants in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach.

Owner response:Thank you so much Vallery: It was also a pleasure to have you come to our second Home in Gulf Shores...I am glad I could help. Thanks again. Ramon

The condo was great! Very spacious, great view, very clean. Loved that it had sliding doors to the balcony from the living room and the master bedroom. It is in a great location, right by the pier. It also is right by the road that you can take to avoid going up Rt 59, avoiding the stoplights , can't remember the name of it though. Also Ramon the owner is very professional to work with. He gave us great directions to enter the condo, where to park to be closest to are condo, and he returned are deposit immediatly after confirming the condo was left the way we found it. Great weather, great food, great times.

This condo is fabulous! We were there for an entire week in October. We had a wonderful time. The beds were super comfy, and we were able to make ourselves feel at home. The kitchen is completely furnished with anything you could possibly need. The extra beach toys/chairs were an added delight for our 2 girls. We will definitely stay here again! Thank you Ramon for your kindness.

I stayed at the Lighthouse in August 2009 because I was getting married on the beach. Several of my family members came to Gulf Shores also and our condo was by far the best. The condo was so clean, bright and beautiful. It was close to everywhere we wanted to go and Ramon thought of everything in this condo. We liked it so much we begged Roman to let us stay another two days. I would recommended this condo to family and friends and hopefully will be back there myself to celebrate my one year anniversary :)

I was a snowbird from Atlanta in #610 during January and February. It could not have been nicer! I've never rented a place where there were ANY supplies found on the first day. So it was a nice surprise...finding dish soap, DW tablets, coffee filters, paper towels, etc. We should all think about leaving some "leftovers" for the next guests! This stay was my first since my family sold the original Lighthouse which my father (a country boy who worked hard to become a successful building contractor) owned and built during the 1950's. So it felt bittersweet at first: remembering the dunes on the property prior to ANY buildings, remembering the former office built like a lighthouse, the 400-mile round-trip drive 2 days a week to check on construction, & other labors of love that my father AND mother put into his vision...And then the most wonderful times as a teenager in the 60's when Gulf Shores was indeed a different place. But Ramon made me feel so welcomed ... plus so many positives to experience here instead of any sadness. So I soon "shook that off" and proceeded to have a wonderful time! Sorry I got too wordy here but thanks so much for being so gracious!

We had a wonderful stay at the Lighthouse unit 610 Labor Day weekend. We had problems getting the keys out of the key box but Ramon had a key to us within 10 minuets so it worked out just fine. The pools and the beach are wonderful and the complex is in a great location. You will be happy with this unit, we were.

Ramon was a most gracious host.I know because upon arrival we had occasion to speak with him. He was available by telephone and assisted us immediately with a very minor problem. The condo was decorated perfectly for a week at the beach, with a well stocked kitchen; all anticipated appliances were there. I especially liked the tall chairs/table on the deck; perfect to help with dolphin spottings. Thanks for sharing your little piece of paradise. Ramon was very responsive to our needs and has earned our repeat business. I hope we will have the opportunity to return soon.

We returned from the beach late last night. Our stay at the beach was wonderful. Your condo is beautiful. My compliments to your decorator. We had everything we needed. One morning a worker came in to check the kitchen tile and paint. We will definitely plan a return trip. I hope that we left everything as it should be. Peggy Ambrose
