Located on Perdido Key Island, just east of the Alabama Point Bridge, Wind Drift Condominiums continue to be the sought after choice of families for their perfect beach get-away. Unlike many other condos along the Alabama Gulf Coast, Wind Drift is on a stretch of quiet beach neighboring a nature preserve, giving our property the rare uncrowded beach we enjoy even in the height of the summer season. Wind Drift condos are low density buildings -- only 7 floors. Our 6th floor condo sits right on the beach. Our back door enjoys views of exclusive Ono Island- home of the multi- millionaires, and the numerous bays and rivers that abound the in the area.

Wake to the sun coming up over the Gulf Coast as you beach comb for shells on our miles of wide beach or sit on the large balcony and watch the dolphins, pelicans, and blue heron as you drink your morning coffee. You may even see the Blue Angels practicing their maneuvers if they are in Pensacola. Spend the day doing family friendly activities, participating in water sports, golfing, shopping, sight-seeing or just relaxing at our condo. Consider day trips to Mobile, Pensacola, Biloxi or New Orleans. There are marinas to take fishing trips or simply watch the boats come in each day. The Wharf, located on the Inter-Coastal Waterway, features shopping, restaurants, a 15-screen movie complex, 10,000-seat Amphitheater and the tallest Ferris wheel in the Southeast. There are also several other family entertainment options with Waterville USA, putt-putt golf, go-carts, the museum at Pensacola Naval Station, etc. In Foley, you'll find the Tanger Center Outlet mall. There are plenty of great local places for a Gulf dining experience of every taste and budget or have a leisurely meal in our well equipped kitchen. Enjoy the night life in the area then return to the condo for moonlight over the Gulf of Mexico and let the surf lull you to sleep.

Amenities to enhance your experience include two swimming pools (one gulf side) and four lighted tennis courts. You can reserve rental beach chairs and umbrellas for the entire stay and savor your spot on the beach.

There is just so much to do in the Orange Beach community you really don't need more than this spacious 2BR/2BA fully equipped condo that sleeps 6. This condo directly faces the Gulf of Mexico and can be viewed from the balcony, family room, and master bedroom. The unit offers all tile floors throughout and very comfortable furniture decorated in a relax and come-put-your-feet-up feeling in the living areas. We have tried to equip our second home to make you feel comfortable and pampered during your vacation.

The fully equipped kitchen is complete with appliances, smooth-top range, and it has everything you need for your cooking convenience. There is a wet bar in the large open living/dining area and a family-size dining table. The living area flows out onto a spacious balcony with an additional dining area where you can enjoy al fresco meals. There is an in-unit washer and dryer. TVs are provided with cable except the front guest bedroom only has DVD capabilities and free high-speed WI-FI Internet access keeps you connected (if you want to be).

The master bedroom with a king-sized bed, opens onto the balcony with a beautiful view of the ocean. There is a large walk-in closet. The large master bathroom has a separate dressing area. The second bedroom has twin beds and its own bathroom. The queen-sized sleeper sofa allows the unit to sleep 6 people.

If you don't want to spend a fortune, or race to the beach to get a place near the water, this is the perfect place. We enjoy a great lifestyle in Orange Beach. Come stay with us for a great vacation at a reasonable price. Plan now for a vacation you will enjoy. Make memories you will treasure!

Mediocre at Best
First off, location of the condo was great. The unit itself smelled musty, moldy and damp. One of the bedrooms had sand in the sheets and we had to wash the sheets. The kitchen was minimally stocked and the dishes that were stocked were broken, chipped and cracked. The place was dirty. I reached out to Beachball and they said they would send someone over to look. I asked that we be given time and date so we could be in the unit. Imagine our surprise at walking in from the beach to find a lady that spoke no english and a child. The unit was terrible. Very disappointed.

Overpriced for the facilities & cleanliness
Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than 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: Was told it was often possible for units to be clean/ready before 4pm checkin. I texted at 3:50pm saying I still hadnt gotten a door code yet. Simple and snarky response of “Checkin is not until 4:00”. However before checkout, had the audacity to ask me if I was leaving early so they could clean early. No.Upon arrival there were no parking tags, not a single one (even more frustrating when you have to pay those extra parking fees). Contacted rental company to be told “just wait for them to be refilled sometime & grab one then”. Sofa bed linens had not been cleaned- looked like dried chocolate on them. Door jam between living room & master was not attached to floor and kept sliding around all week. Smaller bathroom tub had duct tape from a previous “repair”. Pool deck never appeared to be cleaned (same dirt and grime all week) & guests were regularly using the pool net to clean the pool themselves.Unit is also directly across hall from the elevator- noise and light in smaller bedroom all night long.

Kitchen pans also need replacing and the tubs don’t drain very well. Other than that there were no issues. Everything was clean and we enjoyed our stay.

Quick stay worked into business trip.
Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very easy to work with. Customer service was good. The amount of fees tacked onto the property was a little steep. The additional parking fee was a surprise too. If we were ever to return to the area we would stay here and would recommend this place to others. We liked the location of the condo and having open space west of Wind Drift.

Nice Place to stay
Overall it was a nice place to stay. There were a few things that could be improved, like the rusty hinges on doors in the bathroom. The floors had a lot of sand on them when we got there, I spent the next morning vacuuming to clean up the sand. Also the master bath toilet needs repair, it would keep running after flushing. Cost was a little high. I would have enjoyed our trip much more if the weather would have cooperated. It was quite cold when we were there so spent more time in the condo than we normally would have.

Fix the elevator!!!
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Fix the elevator!!!! Impossible to climb 7 flights with bad knees! Loved actual condo and location. Few cosmetic/safety issues. Mirror propped covering hole in wall was safety issue for small children. Stain in tub could be removed with pumice stone. Needed hangers and rental company brought on day three. We love this condo but will not come back unless elevator issue is permanently addressed!

Needs work
The laminate floors are mismatched and there’s no transition piece from the master into the living room- catches toes easily. Baseboard missing on a wall and a hole in the wall in the master as well still not fixed after several previous reviews. There are no hangers and no where to put clothes- in general needs some TLC. Check in was easy. Would rent from this management company again - just not this property.

Paradise On The Beach...
We have been coming to Orange Bach a few years now. Stayed in different properties as well and another Wind Drift condo on both the ocean and the bay side. This condo by far was perfect for our family. For a week on the beach and a home away from home, it was all we needed. I loved the patio being on the top floor and the comfy loungers as it allowed for beautiful mornings watching the sun rise with my coffee and we didn't have to worry about the noise of people above us. Condos provide carts to load and unload with the elevator so check in and out was a breeze. Sure, there are a few items that need updating / repair, (laundry room track doors kept coming off track and was worried I was going to break them because they are mirrored. Had to get on hands and knees with my wife to get back on the track so we could access the washer/dryer. The master bedroom king mattress is a bit stiff. you can tell they just replaced the 2nd bedroom mattress as it was comfy and the master closet doesn't have much storage for guest items as it is full of materials being stored such as tiles, more mirrors and such. None of this made me want to call and complain), but all in all it was a wonderful place and I am already looking forward to booking this same condo again next year.

Had workers in the house 2x without notification
The experience of having people come in to your unit, 2x is absolutely unacceptable and jarring. The secondary bed is awful, son had to sleep on the couch. Really run down broken dishes, utencils. No transition mouldings from room to room, broke a toe nail on that. Duck tape on the front shower, stained horribly. Wouldn't recommend this until they correct obvious safety and comfort issues. HOA Should be ashamed of themselves for the workers invading space.
