We were down for our first visit to Orange Beach during our kids' Fall Break. The condo was quite nice and in a great location on the beach and a short drive to Publix.
One very nice convenience was the ability to text the property management company with any issues or questions. This made communication quick and easy, and they always responded in a timely manner.
We discovered that the top rack of our dishwasher was broken the day we arrived. We texted the property management, and it was fixed the next morning.
The first day we arrived to loud construction in the condo above us. I let it go hoping maybe it would last only one day. Unfortunately, it began again early the next morning and lasted into mid-afternoon. I texted the property management company to ask them about it, and they said that since the condos are individually owned and managed that they had no control over this nor any information about it. In my opinion, this is poor property management. Regardless of who owns the condos, renters should be made aware of planned issues that might disrupt their stay. Thankfully the construction ended after the second day.
The only other issue we had was with the combination full pot / Keurig single cup coffee maker. I spent a lot of time trying to get the Keurig side to work without any luck because a part was broken and another part was missing. We borrowed from a previously used and presumably broken model of the same coffee maker that we found in the closet but still didn't have any luck. In the end, property management said that they would be unable to get a replacement part and for us to use the full pot side instead. Granted this was a workable solution, but it rendered my previous Keurig pods purchase useless and required me to make an additional trip to Publix to buy a pound of ground coffee and coffee filters.
All in all, we enjoyed staying at this condo, but the construction noise and coffee maker issues prevent me from giving it the 5 rating I would have otherwise.
