We brought our 6 and 3 year old boys to the beach for the first time. This condo was perfect for us! With it being our first time to Orange Beach, we wanted to be able to see the ocean every morning with in walking distance, build a sand castle, and relax, all while being centrally located. Phoenix 5 allowed us all of those things. The weather, however, was not ideal beach weather. The high was 55 and rainy. We were able to get maybe 4 hours of sun in 5 days, but we were able to shop close by and play in the indoor pools. We would definitely consider staying again, but it would be further into the year in hopes of warmer temps.
