We had a great time. Condo was clean and view from the balcony were great. We traveled with our 2 small dogs and the netting on the bottom or the railing on the balcony was perfect for keeping them safe.We would definitely stay here again.

Fun Fall Trip!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our third time to Carrabean. We love the view and central location. Best of all we can bring our dog. The unit is bright and tastefully decorated. The kitchen is well stocked and adequate. The tile throughout is obviously as old as the unit and appears very worn. The few rugs look awful-get rid of them. Dogs don’t need rugs. The view helps you not see the little things.

We appreciate your repeat patronage of Caribbean! Thank you for your input; while not all guests bring dogs, they do need to be in good condition. We hope to have the chance to host your fourth visit to the Gulf Coast!

There were some push button lighting that did not work and the light over the dining table did not work. Other than that everything was great including stackable washer and dryer.

Beach front Pet friendly

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were contacted by Bender asking if we’d like to come a day early and we decided yes. When we arrived at office to pick up packet in drop box, it was not there. We called and they worked out with property management that we could wait to to pickup parking pass next day. A pain to go back next day but it wasn’t far. 2 days before checkout I got a text about our checkout next day. I had to call and get them to fix the clerical error, and the door code had to be changed after memorizing the first one. Really like the property, but the floor was needing a deep clean. The kitchen needs to be stocked better, no measuring cups, or spoons, only one potholder. Toaster was broken. Sink sprayer got stuck on. Pool water was clear and clean but the bottom was dirty in both pools. We brought our dog and enjoyed our stay very much in spite of the short comings.

We loved the easy access to the pool and being steps from the beach. our family was able to sit on balcony and enjoy the view. I was able to take full advantage of the sauna and steam room, which was a nice break on rainy days. It was clean and plenty room for family of 4. I would recommend to a friend and stay again.

Got the job done

We aren’t picky as far as where we stay when we go to the beach since we don’t spend too much time in the room. We have stayed at high end condos like Phoenix West and it is always really nice but very expensive. We wanted to save money this time and found this condo on a last minute search. It is not the nicest place but got the job done. It had all the essentials and our kids never knew the difference between here and a nicer place. we enjoyed the easy beach access and the outdoor pool.

Relaxation Station

Enjoyed the property for the most. Having an elevator, the luggage carts, washer dryer, the balcony, the unit for the most part and of course the view. But, their were dishes in the dish washer, the floor needs a good cleaning, single ply toilet paper, like a cheap hotel and one trash bag. One tv remote without batteries and another showing low batteries. We liked it and would try it again.

The location and view from this condo truly are terrific. Deep cleans, during which floors are steam cleaned, are conducted every fall, after the busy spring and summer seasons; we regret the housekeeping issues you experienced during your stay. Condos are supplied with an initial set up of toilet paper and trash bags, as noted in all correspondence to guests; enough to get through the first day of your stay. We welcome the chance to assist you in booking a future visit to Gulf Shores!

The location of Caribbean really is wonderful, and the updates in Caribbean, along with its lovely view of the Gulf make it a great place to stay. We regret the housekeeping issues you experienced, and we would have gladly addressed them immediately had we been notified. We hope that the financial compensation helps to alleviate the inconvenience of the elevator going down.

Caribbean 2021

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We did not know that the pool would be unavailable until a week before we arrived or that the hotel was being painted. The painting caused parking difficulty. There were not even enough spots in the overflow to accommodate everyone staying at the resort. The condo really needs a broom and dustpan! The floors were sandy the whole time and the vacuum was inadequate to remove all of the sand on the tile floors. Bender is always a pleasure to work with besides the broom we understand the other maintenance was necessary.
Response from VrboOwner on 12 May 2022
Its hard to believe that work is still going on from Hurricane Sally! That is why we notified you just as soon as we were aware, two weeks before your arrival, and gave you a discount off of your stay. We hope that you enjoyed your stay in Gulf Shores, and we welcome you back anytime!

Disgusting

First of all the floor was very dirty. The realty co sent someone to mop the floor. It did help some. The bedding, sheets, dust ruffle on the bed, sleeper sofa mattress and the sofa itself were stained and was not very clean. So were some of the towels. The sofa sleeper was disgustingly dirty with what appeared to be dried candy pieces under the mattress plus the sofa mattress itself had urine stains all over it. There was a layer of dust and sand on the nightstands and bedroom furniture. Granted this is a pet friendly older condo but it needs a thorough cleaning. Will not stay here again.

Just okay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This condo was just okay. It could use a fresh coat of paint, some minor fixes and a good cleaning. Some of the furniture was a little worn. The coffee table was wobbly and I was afraid to put anything on it, or it would break. I’m pretty sure there was king sized sheets on a queen sized bed, I could not find the remote for the bedroom tv to watch at night. Fortunately we did not come fo stay in the room all day, the location was great. I’d use the rental company again, just pick a different property.

😐

For the amount of the cleaning fee it was disappointing to find hair in our sheets and the comforter on the bed which was a darker teal underneath and floral on top had actually big white bodily stain marks on them so the comforter was not washed between stays . It showed the kitchen table having placemats along with the balcony table having things and none of which were able to be found . That’s not a huge deal it just didn’t appear how it was presented in the photos . Over all the location was perfect ! The privacy was nice . Parking was a bit silly if we didn’t find a spot we had to park across the street but not to much to complain about . If they could get the cleanliness down it would have been better. Also couldn’t take the stairs because the smell of urine was so strong trying to get to the 4th floor was almost unbearable. Beautiful views though !
