We loved the proximity to the beach. We liked that the location was further away from business.

Great location to the beach. Wasn’t impressed with the surrounding area as far as bars and restaurants. Pink pony pub is a dump. Dirty. Over priced and quality of food is subpar. Checking in was easy but having to drive to a separate location is not convenient. Room itself was spacious and clean.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the beach location and found the room spacious and clean, as well as the check-in process being smooth. We appreciate your comments regarding the surrounding area and the check-in logistics, as guest perspectives help future travelers set expectations.
Perfect location to walk on beach, 2nd floor was great, elevator a bit pokey, but no big deal. Unfortunately, no washer and dryer in condo, so bring plenty of clothes and outside chairs for beach. Great balcony. So clean. We loved it!

Great location and great communication with management.. Furnishings are a little dated and TV rather small and only a half roll of toilet paper in each restroom and no coffee filters. Nice stay overall.

Hello Robert,
We appreciate you taking the time to give us feedback on your experience.
We apologize the tissue was limited and no coffee filters. We do try and let our guest know, only one roll of tissue per bathroom is provided. Coffee filters are not provided in our rentals.
We hope to have you stay with us again in the future.
The condo is cute, seems to have been remodeled recently. Location is excellent!!!!! Balcony is small; no more than 2 people can sit comfortably on it. Main issue we had was not enough plug in outlets; we had to move furniture to get them. Over all stay was good! Would recommend.

We appreciate your feedback about the balcony and outlets, and we’ll take it into consideration for future improvements. It’s wonderful to hear your overall stay was good, and we appreciate your recommendation!
Very easy to get to, loved the view of the ocean. The security guard working was very nice and would speak when I was sitting on the balcony. The balcony was right above the walk way to the beach. I would stay here again.

Thank you for your review! We would love to see you next year!
We loved our stay at the Island Shores. The condo was perfect for what we needed for three adults and two children under 5. The property management company was super responsive and communicated very well during our stay, not to mention they were less than 10 minutes from the condo. The best part- the location! We noticed we were on a much less crowded side of Gulf Shores & also within walking distance of a great restaurant next door. I would look to stay here again for our next vacation

I loved the property location because it was convenient to the beach, food, bars, & restaurants.
The property was exactly the same as in the picture. It was stocked with dishes & I love that the refrigerator had a ice maker. I will definitely rent this property again.

I thought location was great…morning breakfast with a beach view each morning. Small issue annoying is that you have to go pick up keys and then drop off. They rental company is not near condo so you need to take into especially if you need to get to an airport.

We are so glad you enjoyed the location and view. We strive for our guest to have a 5 star experience and do everything we can to inform our guest of key pick up. Poole and Associates is working on changing all of our units to keyless entry.
The condo is as pictured and beautifully updated. The beds are comfortable. The only complaint is the

It looks like your message got cut off. What was your complaint about the condo? I'd love to help you express your thoughts or provide feedback! We would love to have you stay with us again.
The condo was very clean and looks like it was recently remodeled. The check-in process was easy. There were enough linens and towels for our needs. The condo is in a great location so it is convenient to drive to grocery stores, restaurants and other attractions. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed. I enjoyed my stay and will be renting here again.

Loved the location and views. Clean unit, given number to call if any problems. Great communication from property managers. Only issues were smokers on balconies and leaf blower for sand at 6:30 each morning (obviously not the home owners fault) We prefer keyless entry as opposed to a key, so that we don’t have to keep track of a key at the beach and so that we don’t have to make a separate trip to the rental company to pick up and return it. Overall, a great condo!

Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you loved the location, views, and found the unit clean with good communication. We totally understand how keyless entry adds convenience—your suggestion is noted and appreciated. Sorry to hear about the early leaf blower and smokers on balconies; we know those can be tricky to control but appreciate your understanding. We hope to host you again soon!
Great place to stay as far as condo location, view , close to restaurants and shopping. Our only negative comment owner needs to update furniture.Not comfortable at all !!!

Hello Linda,
We appreciate you taking the time to leave us feedback about your stay. We are so glad you enjoyed the location, view and local shopping and eats. We will have our team check on the furniture. We hope to have you stay with us again in the future!
Location was hard to beat. Room was nice with an amazing view. Just a little heads up. There aren’t many easily accessible plug-ins in the bedroom and no overhead lighting. Only lamps. Not a major issue but sometimes hard for my older eyes to see when getting ready😂
