We had an absolutely wonderful time, well layed out condo, I could have lived in the sunroom, grandkids loved it, very comfy, having 2 full baths was a plus, and being able to prepare meals also great. Being able to walk right out on the beach, was so worth it, would definitely stay there again if available, Thank you so very much for a wonderful week!

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay with us at ALBVR. We hope to have the
the pleasure of hosting your next Gulf Shores vacation!
There were a few minor problems with the unit. The ice maker was not working properly; the shower door in the main bedroom would not close; the carpet in the main bedroom is not completely attached which could cause someone to trip; the overhead light in the main bedroom was not working and the fan in the second bedroom was noisy.Other than those issues, the unit is good
It was a pleasure hosting your beach vacation. We look forward to having you as a repeat guest!

We enjoyed staying here. The ocean is so close the the pool area. Everything was clean, and everyone was nice. Gulf Shores is a peaceful alternative to crowded beaches in Florida.
Unit was very clean and as advertised. unfortunately our stay was shortened by hurricane Helene.

My sister and i loved the Phoenix vII with its great location and amenities. The only suggestion we would make is some furniture in the livingroom that includes either footrests

Thank you for taking the time to share your review. We’re delighted to hear that you and your sister enjoyed your stay at Phoenix VII 1113. We also truly appreciate your understanding regarding our necessary move from Edgewater West 53 due to building construction.
Thank you for your suggestion about adding footrests to the living room furniture. Your feedback is appreciated.
Great stay. Good location with ease of access to beach with kids. Well equipped kitchen and laundry. Only issue was glass shower door in master bath didn’t work and neighbors dog yelping.
Great location, easy parking, elevator was great, pool was very handy and perfect beach access.
The condo itself could use some TLC to make it even more enjoyable.
The beach does not allow tents over 7x7x4, so our tent was not allowed. Should put that on the info.

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay at Edgewater West 53. Over the winter, we will be evaluating the properties and requesting updates as needed. Thank you again and hope to have the pleasure of hosting a future vacation.
This is a great unit (don't understand why anyone would really give a bad review and I always read all before booking). I loved the "sunroom" and being able to open the windows and hearing the waves. Only thing I would change in the description is and I looked and didn't see anything about not being able to rent umbrella/chairs for the beach, because Condo association doesn't allow it and making storage unit more accessible if you are going to allow guests to use your beach supplies. We couldn't get into storage (due to lock being corroded) and ended up buying umbrellas. However, was a very relaxing but fast trip for my family, and if I end up in the area again, would consider booking again. Unit have more than expected! Thanks!!

Lipstick on a pig, disappointing stay
Condo reeked of cigarette smoke the moment we opened the door during check-in, very off-putting for non-smokers. Public network WiFi that was provided during our stay did not work, found clumps of hair stuck along shower wall in master bathroom upon arrival, only 1 roll of toilet paper and 1 trash bag provided for a condo that sleeps 6. For a 3 day stay over $1.5k, we expected a better (and cleaner) experience at this condo. Left a review directly with ABVR over a week ago upon check-out and did not hear anything from management so leaving a review here as well.

Hi, Austi; we sincerely apologize for the smell of cigarette smoke and the mess that was there upon your arrival. The situation will be addressed and sent to our maintenance and staff. As for the toiletries, it is stated in the check-in information that each property will be stocked with a starter kit that includes 1 roll of toilet paper per bathroom, 1 trash bag liner per trash can, and 1 roll of paper towels in the kitchen. Guests must supply their own for the rest of their stay. We hope you enjoyed your overall stay and give us another chance. We would love to host your next vacation.

Was not happy with this condo. Very blah! Dark rms same color in all. Ugly gold. Carpet that had humps in it and we all kept tripping on it! Curtains from a funeral home it looked like. Needs updates. Girls bed skirts dragged on floor. Would not stay in this condo again. Had 64 last year and was beautiful! Vrbo should have checked this out for there fee they charge. Shame!!

Poor communication
Overall we enjoyed our stay. I do have to say though that communication with the property manager was poor. We had several questions/issues throughout the stay and it was impossible to reach someone. Everytime we called, left messages they were either not returned or returned hours later. Lock box at arrival was broken which made check and in and check out difficult. Decor (which is not a major issue) was falling apart. We returned from swimming and a picture had completely fallen off the wall, frame broken. It had been glued together and fixed with tape. Of course these things are not functional to the condo, but some small repairs to the aesthetics of the place go a long way when spending so much on a vacation. Things shouldn't be falling off the wall because they are taped together.
Pool was filthy for most of the stay, we actually had to call someone to have it cleaned which took hours.
Management needs to provide list of vendors that are allowed to rent umbrells and beach chairs from. We had to walk down several condos because companies stated they were not allowed to set up there. Made it more of a hassle with all the beach things with kids.
Overall great location central to alot of restaurants and attractions.
