About this property
Direct Beach Front
We are DIRECTLY ON THE BEACH! Our condo is one of the closest in Orange Beach to the water. Let the sound of the surf relax your mind as your eyes wander over the expansive gulf views. This is the third unit east of Perdido Pass (Alabama Point Bridge) which is next to a preserve. This is a low density complex and the pools are not on the beachside, which translates to 'quiet beachfront'.
This recently updated condo is perfect for a romantic get away, or a small family vacation. Enjoy the amenities such as a flat screen HDTV with cable, internet access and a view of the gulf while cooking dinner in the full kitchen!
******************************************************** 'The location could not be better. It's in the middle of everything.' -- Liz Hernandez, Violet, La. ********************************************************
Extensive Lei Lani amenities include beautiful quiet beach front, two outdoor pools, indoor beachfront heated pool, tennis court, outdoor grills and picnic areas, Old River access with boat dock, covered picnic areas, beachside bathroom and changing areas, beachfront chair, umbrella, water craft rentals, and more.
From the front door, your toes can hit the sand in under a minute!
The family friendly Lei Lani condo complex is one of the few developments on Perdido Key that is located both on the beach and Old River. This unit is located in the beachfront tower with private balcony and direct views of the Gulf of Mexico. The sunrise and sunset can both be seen and are unbelievably beautiful! See our photos to truly appreciate all the views from our unit.
******************************************************** 'In one day, my daughter and I went crabbing in Old River, tubing in Old River, played tennis, rented a chair and umbrella on the beach, went scuba diving and swam in the heated pool, - this place is terrific.' -- Joe Coyne, Medina, Minn. ********************************************************
Our 1 Bedroom comfortably sleeps two in the king size bed, and a queen sized sofa bed is in the living area which is best suited for children.
Ideally, this 1 bedroom 1.5 bath condo is most comfortably enjoyed by a couple or small family.
This 1 bedroom unit includes a full kitchen with all dining accessories, and all towels, linens, pillows, and blankets are provided.
******************************************************** 'I walked in the door to the condo, and simply said 'wow, this place is right next to heaven - the views are awesome!' - - Katie Maia, Denver, Colorado *********************************************************

Very happy with this accommodation and the location. The bedroom was a little small for 2 adults trying to setup 2 open suit cases, but overall very happy.

We are happy to hear that you were overall very happy with your stay. The photos reflect that the space in the bedroom is ample, accommodating 2 nightstands and a 6 drawer dresser. Additionally, the closet is also large enough to handle many hanging items and stowed luggage for added convenience. Like you, many find our location to be desirable. Thanks, Karen & Keith
This was a wonderful weekend getaway for my wife and I. The apartment was clean, well stocked and comfortable. There was a a lot of construction going on in other parts of the building but for the most part that didn’t disrupt our experience. Very nice place.

Thank you Ryan for your kind remarks. The building was closed for construction for almost 2 years! Any construction noises you may have heard were being done by individual unit owners and not the overall building. I’m glad that it didn’t disrupt your stay and that you were comfortable in our unit. Karen & Keith
Very convenient place to stay. Nice and quiet with a lovely beach view. Hosts are kind and responsive. Bedding was not freshly washed and smelled. There were also smokers next to us on the balcony, so the balcony was not as enjoyable at times.

Our condo is cleaned, including linens after every stay. We have plenty reviews remarking about the cleanliness and I am surprised that you found that the linens were not clean. Had you reached out, we could have immediately addressed this with our cleaning service. This building is non-smoking by ordinance. A complaint to management on the first floor would have resolved this. It is unfortunate that we were not notified and given a chance to remedy issues. We agree that our beach view is the best! Thanks, Karen & Keith.
Location was amazing, easy access to the beach. Parking pass was not left for us, so owner told me to purchase another and he would reimburse me. Condo was clean and perfect for two people.
Great place to stay. Clean, very nice and spacious, has everything you need. Beautiful view of the beach. Will definitely be back and pick this place to stay again.
We stayed 4 night and the bed was wonderful. The view of the beach was amazing and we even seeen dolaphin The location is great. The place was as it was described in the ad. We would stay here again.

Hi Judy. I don’t know how I let your wonderful review escape me. My mother always said, “It’s never too late to say thank you!” So, “thank you”! We’re glad you had a great stay. Karen & Keith
Loved visiting orange beach for the first time and this location along the beach was so nice. It wasn’t ever very busy and there was always plenty of wildlife to observe from the beach or the balcony.

Thanks for this terrific review. We’re so glad you enjoyed the condo and the locale. Thanks for staying with us. Karen and Keith
Karen and I purchased this condo because we love the beach. Karen loves to sit on the beach and have a nice adult beverage while talking to friends and family, I enjoy scuba diving, boating and golf. We both enjoy the sunset while sipping a glass of wine. While we are happy to rent, we are equally happy when not rented to use and enjoy ourselves. Please come and enjoy a little slice of heaven that we enjoy as often as we can. If you want information on activities or what to do or any question about the condo or renting it, please call - we are more than happy to help!
Why they chose this property
We chose Orange Beach because of the beautiful white beaches, the many activities close by, the boat dock in the back and the closeness to Floribama. Combine these aminities with the fact the condo is only 3 1/2 hours from home and it makes the perfect retreat for us.
What makes this property unique
Karen and I are both active so we enjoy a wide range of activities such as sunning on the beach, swimming in one of the 3 pools, playing tennis, biking along the shore and in the nearby State park, scuba diving, boating, water skiing and tubing. We also enjoy dining out as well as a wonderfully cooked meal (Karen is a terrific cook) with a great bottle of wine while watching the sunset.
