The property was clean. Beds were comfy. The view was amazing! The whole check in check out process was smooth. We enjoyed our vacation so much we want to move lol
We had an amazing stay in this adorable condo! It was very clean when we arrived and was very well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. We loved the balcony and view of the pool and beach! The outdoor pool was very nice. We hope to visit again!
This condo is fantastic, clean, well appointed and on a wonderful property with lots to do! We loved the beach, the pools, pickleball and basketball courts. Shopping and wonderful dining are also close by! A great deal.
We enjoyed our stay. The place was beautiful and the condo was very clean. We had a beautiful view of the ocean. Everyone was very helpful from check-in to check-out. We hope to come back.
The second floor unit has a nice balcony view of the beach and outdoor pools. There is a boardwalk to the beach that provides good access for walking and taking a wagon. The overall building has a variety of maintenance issues. There was only one working elevator and at one point no working elevator. The closest tennis court was closed all week. The outdoor pools were cold (70F). The indoor pool was warm but very chlorinated. When we arrived a toilet seat in the guest bathroom was broken and the fridge light was burned out. The property management company was contacted immediately. The toilet was fixed 48 hours later. The fridge was not fixed. The fridge appeared to not be running properly and seemed to run too long; vegetables froze. There were some additional minor inconveniences in the unit like multiple light fixtures had bulbs of different tones/brightnesses and there was no salt/pepper or coffee filters for the coffee maker. There is no baking sheet minimal cooking tools. The water from the tap tasted fine to some and not great for others. You might want bottled water if you’re sensitive to water taste. There were lots of children and families around. The unit was clean and there was a vacuum to do a midweek sweep. The listing stated that parking for the week was 35 but it is 40.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this condo. It was super clean, the kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, beds were comfy, view was amazing, and the listing was spot on as to what they were advertising. Would definitely stay here again! Thank you!
This is not our first time at this property. We decided to return here because it's more family oriented and the beaches are not as crowded. Plus the facilities are in great shape. It's a bit out of the way but well worth it.

Reviewer Comments:
We only got to stay one night because of a death in the family but the location is awesome and the condo is great. Very nice!
Absolutely loved it here!! The condo was exactly as described!! I really liked the decor! The balcony view was perfect, just as pictured!! Just a short walk to the private beach! I have nothing negative to add! If I happen to visit the area again will definitely stay here!!
Everything was phenomenal. Swimming pools very clean. On the beach was amazing. Food on the resort was outstanding. The room was spotless, the view was gorgeous. Away from town - food and stores - but it was amazing. Very thankful I chose here to stay.
We have stayed in this condo community several times. We love the location and safety of the gated community. Our condo was nice but could use better quality bedding and cookware. Bathrooms were clean but grout around shower and on tile floor is getting black and could use some attention. Overall it was a good stay. thanks!

We are pleased you had a good stay and enjoyed your time at the beach. It is impossible to please everyone with bedding. What is perfect for some is to hard or soft for others. The current bedding is in good condition and less than a year old. We are preparing to close units and deep clean them and any grout issues will be dealt with at that time. We will also but checking cookware at that time. Thank you for choosing our condo for your beach vacation!
Very clean, organized and bathrooms were updated. The fans weren’t strong enough in the bathroom to help with moisture so the fan and light had to stay on. The light bulb was out in the guest room. The couch slept/set comfortably too!

Thank you for staying with us and we are please you enjoyed your time at the beach. I appreciate you mentioning the light bulb so we can replace it. I simply wish you had let me know when it went out so we could have addressed it for you. Please come back again soon!

In 2003 I became a property owner in Gulf Shores, AL. After all these years it is still a blessing to call this beautiful place "my home away from home".
Why they chose this property
The resort is located directly on the beach and offers more amenities than most resorts! These amenities are for your enjoyment without an extra charge. There is something about time at the beach which leaves us feeling fresh and renewed.
