Perfect, perfect, perfect! Clean condo, well supplied, great beach toys, beautiful pool, right on the ocean, wonderful finishes in the condo! This was perfect for our family and the condos were filled with families so everything was relatively quiet. As much as we loved the pool, the draw of the beach with all of the beach supplies led us there daily. Thank you Spark and team!!!

Thank you for the amazing review! We are glad your family enjoyed our condo on the beach!
We loved our stay at #28! Everything was easy access (i.e. parking, pool, beach) making it great for families with small children. The unit was clean, comfortable and felt like home. We hope to visit again in the future!

It was our first time at the beach in Fall and it was amazing! The townhouse had everything we needed for the beach and more, including tools for eating crab legs we bought from the market! The location to the beach and pool was perfect for our family of 6! The space in the townhome was also amazing! We will definitely be returning! Thanks so much for sharing your beach home with us!

Relaxing stay at this little beachside gem in Gulf Shores, and I already want to book it again. The townhouse had everything we needed for our stay, including beach equipment and views that made me consider becoming a professional porch-sitter.The beach was just steps away and you could here sound of the waves at night, granted some of that from the occasional storm. Can’t wait to come back!

Thanks for the great review! We hope you can come back soon!
If you're looking for a town home that is conveniently located steps from the pool and beach, this is it! We felt right at home with a full kitchen, washer and dryer, and accessible pool and beach toys. Communication with the host was fast and always thorough. This was our first time and it certainly won't be our last!

We love this location! It was so nice that the unit had boogie boards, beach chairs etc, so we did not have to bring them. The owners were very responsive to any question/needs we had, and got back to us promptly. Can’t wait to come back!

Everything was great. Location was ideal. The townhouse was very clean although it was minimally supplied. Good thing there is a convenience store within walking distance. We will return to the area.

About the host
Hosted by Spark Meister
Our family has vacationed in Gulf Shores for many years now. We live in central Illinois, and love to vacation on the beach! We've found the white sand beaches in Gulf Shores to be the most beautiful and family friendly of all! We also enjoy all of the fun things to do within walking distance! We have extended family members who also own in the area and we have enjoyed their vacation homes in the past. However, recently, we had the opportunity to purchase this townhome, partnering with our daughter and son-in-law. They have four children and are in the photo above. We enjoy watching our grandchildren play on the beach, swimming and fishing and look forward to many more years of vacationing in Gulf Shores, AL.
Why they chose this property
We really love the beach house feel of a townhome, with no foot traffic above or below. The small complex has a community feel, with the pool and courtyard in the center of a "U" shape. The location is absolutely perfect with the complex being beach side and within walking distance of the Shrimp Festival, The Hangout, and a variety of other restaurants, shops, and grocery stores. We have made many memories in Gulf Shores and are excited to make many more at our new home away from home.
What makes this property unique
It is so nice to be able to watch your kids swim in the pool right from your balcony. In the past, we've stayed in places where the pool was across the street, but our set-up couldn't be more convenient or family friendly, with the pool and courtyard located right in the center of the complex, and the beach only steps away!
