BEACH FRONT 2 Bedroom, 2 Bath 3rd Floor Condo Awesome VIEW of the Gulf!
We want to let everyone know our cleaning company is taking all necessary steps to ensure your stay is safe and enjoyable. All surfaces are treated with disinfectant before your arrival, so don't worry and come back to the beach!
VRBO now has a SERVICE FEE that they charge guests, which is not our fee and we see none of that money. Wanted to be clear with guests about that... Our 2 bedroom, 2 bath unit is on the 3rd floor of a low density complex. The beach view is grand from our balcony… right in front of you as you walk out the sliding glass door! This complex is one of Gulf Shores’ most popular rental complexes, with affordable rates, convenience of walking to restaurants/shopping and direct gulf -front condos.
The living room has a large window showing a stunning view of the sugar sand beach and sparkling blue waves below. From the balcony you will enjoy watching the activities on the beach, the red sunset or taking a nap listening to the methodical rolling of waves against the shore.
The master bedroom has a king size bed and a private bath. There is a large flat screen smart TV with cable.
The second bedroom has a beautiful view of the beach through the double windows! It also has a queen sized bed and a flat screen TV with cable.
The living room has a large flat screen smart TV with cable for your enjoyment! It also has a queen sleeper sofa.
The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could want, the dining area has seating for four.
The sparkling pool is located on the north side of the complex, which keeps sand and debris from blowing into it constantly. It has plenty of seating for laying out in the sun or watching the kids swim.
The Island Shores complex is a low density, family oriented facility with only 59 units in a building with 6 floors. It is located in the heart of Gulf Shores, with shopping, Alabama State Fishing Pier, restaurants, fresh seafood markets and much more all within walking distance of the unit. The Sea and Suds is a wonderful restaurant on the beach within a stone’s throw of our complex.
No smoking inside the unit or on the balcony and no pets inside the unit or on the property at Island Shores!
There is a drink vending machine, an ice machine (accepts cash or cards), a coin operated laundry (which also accepts credit cards) and of course an elevator and luggage carts for your convenience.
The Complex is within a short drive of several grocery stores (including a Wal -Mart Supercenter), pharmacies, package stores, movie rentals, spas, deep sea fishing charters, movie theaters, golf courses, water parks, mini golf, the Tanger Outlet Mall in Foley, Gulf Shores State Park, the Alabama Birding Trail and Bon Secour Wildlife Refuge.
History buffs can ride out to Fort Morgan State Park, built in 1834 and heavily used during the civil war. For those that want to visit her sister fort across Mobile Bay, Fort Gaines, they can take the interesting ride on the car ferry over to Dauphin Island! Makes a great day trip!
For those that have never experienced the night life on the beach, you are in for a wonderful time. There are many night clubs in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach. The Pink Pony and The Hangout are a half mile from our condo. Live Bait is a popular spot in Orange Beach. All have live music most of the time. One of the best places to experience the Gulf Coast nightlife and meet people ages 18 to 80 is the world famous roadhouse, the Florabama Lounge. Located right on the Alabama/Florida line, the Florabama has beach access, great food and some of the best live music around, but don’t take the kids past 6 pm… unless they are at least 18 years old!
Island Shores is only an hour away from Mobile Alabama, 30 minutes from Pensacola Florida, and 10 minutes from Foley, Alabama. Located directly on the beach at 421 East Beach Blvd, ½ half mile east of where 59 ends at the public beach in Gulf Shores. From I-10, take highway 59 to Gulf Shores and take a left on East Beach Blvd, then go ½ mile and Island Shores is on the right. From the Foley Beach Express, after going through the toll bridge keep going straight until you dead end into Canal Road, then take a right and follow it to 59 and take another left, then when 59 dead ends at the beach take another left and go ½ mile and Island Shores is on your left.

We had a great experience! The location to the beach was awesowm so convenient. Anytime I had a question, Judy was available by text immediately! I would recommend staying here!
Clean 2bed/2ba, perfect for our situation. Located right on the beach with easy access to restaurants, ice cream shops, and grocery. Owners were very responsive!
This property has everything you will need and right on the Beach! The pool was perfect! Great location! Thank you Jeff and Judy! Enjoyed our stay! The Nelson’s Sallisaw, Ok.
Great Gulf and beach view from the balcony. Judy was excellent with communication and eager to help in any way she could. The building has some age, but has been maintained. Construction was going on, but we were prepared because Judy made sure we were aware before accepting payment. Location is perfect!
This condo is located in the perfect spot on the beach. We loved that the building is just 6 floors - it was quiet and there was not a crowd on the beach. The building is just steps from the beach. There was work going on while we were there; we could see improvements and upgrades to the property. Everything was neat and clean.The condo is very close to shops, great restaurants, the state park, and grocery stores.Judy was great to work with. Everything in the condo was as expected. Judy did a good job of responding quickly and efficiently.I would highly recommend this condo.
The condo was clean & comfortable. You can't beat the view or distance from the beach. It is also close to the state park pier which made for a great beach walk.
Great location that is close to everything. Condo was clean and had all essentials needed. Judy is an excellent host- very friendly and available if you need anything. We love it here!
We just spent 4 nights and the location is excellent. It’s right on the beach and walking distance to several restaurants and bike rentals. The check in/out process is easy and the owners were helpful.
Had a wonderful vacation at this location! Beds were SO comfortable, everything we needed was provided! The balcony was perfect for coffee in the morning and cocktails in the evening, beautiful view! The beach was close and beautiful white sand. Would definitely stay here again! The owners were so friendly and prompt to answer any questions! Loved that there were so many close restaurants and great boutiques! A must try!!!
Very nice location. There were no surprises. We were happy at the beach was just a very short distance from our room. There were not many stairs to walk down to get to the beach. It was a great little getaway!
Property was great location and great room. The beds could have used better cleaning but over all it was good.
