San Carlos 1507: Coastal Themed Condo with Premium Balcony Seating

San Carlos 1507 was clean, spacious and nicely decorated. Security was great and we loved that there were bathrooms by the pool. We will definitely put San Carlos on our list for future stays at Gulf Shores.

Nothing but great things to say about this property and the property manager. Wonderful view of the gulf from the 15th floor. Never waited for an elevator. We had 5 in this 3 bedroom, 3 bath condo. Could easily have made it 8 with plenty of room to spare. The 3 baths are a real added benefit. Well supplied with everything you need. Clean and quiet. The property owners have created a nice space for others to enjoy. At the Beach Vacations (property mgt group) was outstanding with their communications. Highly recommend this for folks looking to enjoy Gulf Shores with a no hassle, relaxing experience!

We so enjoyed our stay--we love the San Carlos complex and try to stay there yearly. This unit (1507) had great balcony furniture but the balcony door needs some WD40 as it squeaks pretty bad. We liked the bedroom appointments(King, queen, 2 double beds) although the mattresses could use replacing especially in the room with the double beds and the master bed. The kitchen was adequately stocked and all the appliances worked well. We did have a problem with a commode seat missing a screw that held the seat in place but it did get addressed but it took 2 days. Then we found an extra commode screw under the kitchen sink later in the week!!!! The dead bolt lock is nonfunctional and we brought that to the attention of the maintenance man when he was working on the commode but he was not able to fix it that day. It may be fixed by now. The sofa is a sleeper sofa but we did not discover that until our last night when picking up toys under the couch! I mention this because the rental team told me it was not a sleeper sofa. We had my 80 year old momma with us and the walk-in shower in the master bath was an asset and the handicapped parking in the garage was a blessing too. The parking lot police do need to monitor those handicap spots in the garage and in the parking lost as most of the time the handicap spots were occupied by non-handicap vehicles. There seems to be a lot of new rules at the San Carlos which were not written in the unit nor in my rental agreement. Those need to be communicated more clearly for improved compliance. It looks like the complex is adding some type of structure around the pool-I hope it is an awning or partial roof that provides some shade in the pool area. We will see next year!!! I loved that the city of Gulf Shores has the recycle cans on the beach for all the recyclables and they take it all-glass, paper, plastics, and cans!!! Go gulf Shores!!!! This will be my favorite unit as well as my yearly unit if they get those mattresses replaced.

My family, parents and sister stayed at this condo last week. We had a GREAT time! Condo is beautiful (we loved the decor and the 3 bedrooms/3 bathrooms - so convenient), and the San Carlos complex is very nice too. We will definitely return!

We were very impressed with our accommodations. The unit was very clean and well stocked with all of the necessities. All we had to do is bring our snacks, meals and drinks then kick back, relax and take in the wonderful ocean breeze. The weather in May was just right for us Wisconsinites looking for a break from the cold winter months. The temp was in the mid to high 70's all week. Our attendant (Forest) for the lounge chairs on the beach was great and very attentive to our needs. An AWESOME vacation for us in a Fantastic rental. Seafood all around was Great at Doc's, Bahama Bob's, LuLu's, and Floribama Yacht Club. Our favorite BBQ is in Orange Beach at Moe's. Floribama entertainment was very good as well. We will definitely be back to enjoy San Carlos and this particular unit.
