Cozy Spot with Amazing View
Kinda studio style with open bedroom and news a few upgrades BUT truly no complaints as it's on the beach with an amazing view. It was cozy for my husband/myself and our son. People were helpful and we were grateful for this place as we needed a vacation and had a tight budget. Perfect location to everything but our favorite was the beach and the view!! Thank you
The view is the only part that’s good everything else was terrible the bed was horrible and uncomfortable the floors were nasty and everything was very outdated
On the beach so no crossing roads. This place doesn’t have bells and whistles of stainless steel appliances and some outlets don’t work, but overall things worked and people tried to help with anything…and with a view like it’s really hard to complain! And at a reasonable price, thank you!! Our son slept on couch while we took the doorless bedroom; kinda studio style. Bathroom was great! Again, the view and on the beach :)
Looked nice needs updates for sure was nice for the price but, for the amount playing you would think they would buy new bed sheet... they was nasty and have a new shower curtain.. Had to contact host about what floor and room number and code they didnt tell me I had to call for it, would've been nice for that to be in my email about it. They just let me know it was ready thats it..
Loved the location. Right on the beach and close enough to walk to dinner without being too close to the noise and crowds. Condo could use some updates. The small table on the balcony has a broken leg and we were told the dishwasher needed repairs. Also had to grab a spare blanket out the car since one was not provided for the sofa bed (sheets only). Otherwise, it was a great spot for our short weekend stay.
The condo was clean and everything we needed. The location and beach view is great! We've already booked another weekend in September!

Oh, but the view!
The location of the condo is great. The view of the beach is amazing. These are the two things that made us choose this condo and we are so glad we did. There were a few minor things in the condo that could be fixed or updated, but nothing major. Checking in, paying parking online and checking out via text made things super simple. Would definitely stay at this location again.
Although the weather did not cooperate, we had a great trip. The condo have everything that we needed as it was just the 2 of us. We would stay here again!

Great Stay
This condo has a great view of the beach and pool. It was close to every thing wanted in town. The condo was well supplied with cooking utensils. This unit has a working washer/dryer and that was very convenient. My wife & I took a few days to celebrate our anniversary, and this was a great place to do it!!

Gulf Shores 2024
We enjoyed our stay at Island Winds East. The weather was a little warm but still enjoyable. It wasn’t crowded on the beach and had no problems getting into our favorite restaurants. There wasn’t any loud crowds or noises in our condo which made it a peaceful and relaxing experience. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Will be back in October!
The location is ideal. Gulf front. Walking distance to popular places. The unit needs some uodating and the bathroom needs some serious work. We had a long weekend for a tournament and the place is quiet and close to everything.
