It has many recent upgrades, and is a beach front condo with balcony, 3 bedroom (2 full bedrooms plus bunk room with 2 bunk beds) and 2 baths. The master bath was recently updated with a huge walk in shower. The 4th floor is the perfect floor, not too high, not too low, and the balcony has direct views of the ocean and can be accessed from both the living area and the Master Bedroom. It has a King size bed in the master, a KIng size bed in the guest room, and a bunk room with two twin bunks for the kids. You'll also be amazed by the comfort of the queen size sleeper sofa with it's new, thicker memory foam mattress. It is remarkably comfortable. The unit sleeps 8 total. We have a keyless entry system, so there's no waiting to check-in! There is free Wireless Internet as well.
The living room has new furniture and opens to the gulf-front balcony. It has a new 58 inch 4K Roku smart TV for all your streaming apps, as well as cable and DVD player. The dining area has new furniture and seats 9 (6 at the table and 3 at the bar).

There is also a large walk-in closet that is big enough to use as a child's quiet sleeping area if you use the available pack and play.
The Guest bedroom has a King size bed and adjoins to the second bath, which has a tub/shower combo. This bedroom has a ceiling fan, large flat screen HDTV with Roku for streaming video apps, cable TV, and a DVD player.
The bunk room is perfect for kids or teens to have their own space to relax. It has it's own door to close for privacy/quiet. It has a twin bunk bed with new comfortable mattresses and a flatscreen HDTV with Roku for streaming video apps, cable TV, and a DVD player as well.
We have stocked the condo with an assortment of toys and games for different ages to enjoy. There are also beach chairs and sand toys to use. For those with very small children, we have provided a pack and play with a mattress protector for extra cushion and sheets for it. There is a high chair you can use, if needed, that straps onto a dining chair. We have some blocks for small children to play with, toys and books for a those a bit older as well, and board games for teens too.

There is a full size washer and dryer in the unit in a separate laundry room, iron, and ironing board if needed.
The Seawind is located directly on the beach. No need to cross any busy roads to go to beach. It is probably the most convenient location in Gulf Shores. It is adjacent the only "over-the-beach" seafood restaurant/pier in the area, "Sea and Suds" which we highly recommend. The Hang Out (Music, Food and Fun-check out their website for scheduled events, concerts etc.) and the public pier at Gulf State Park are all within an easy walking distance. Directly across the street from the Seawind is Surf Style, which has everything you might need. Beach supplies, groceries, and any essentials you may need doesn't even require getting in a car. Just walk across the street. In addition, fun activities such as parasailing, banana tubing, and jetski rental is also directly on the beach at the Seawind.
This condo has an indoor/outdoor heated pool, hot tub, and a fantastic Zero entry Splash pad for the little ones with spraying fountains that kids love. The Fitness Center is one of the largest, nicest fitness center in Gulf Shores, and has a large private bath with lockers. This makes for a great way to extend your stay a little longer on the day of checkout. After checkout, you could still spend the day on the beach and then go to the Fitness center and get showered and change into clean clothes before heading out. The Fitness Center has large windows facing the Gulf, top-notch exercise equipment, as well as a sauna. There is also a BBQ area with grills for your use. There are three levels of covered, convenient parking with 2 elevators adds to the ease of getting to your relaxing vacation!
One plus for this unit is that it's only one floor up from the top level parking if you don't like using/waiting on an elevator.
There is also an ice vending machine, payable by credit card, located in the parking garage on the first floor which makes loading up the cooler super convenient.
Bigger stores such as Wal-mart, Target, Publix , and Winn- Dixie are all just minutes away, as is every kind of food you might desire.
Golf enthusiasts have several wonderful courses to choose from in the area. The shopping mecca, Foley Outlet Mall, is 10 miles away and The Wharf retail shopping area is 7 miles away in nearby Orange Beach. There are many amusements for the whole family in the surrounding area and too many places to eat to list them all! Gulf Shores is a very family-friendly, packed with lots to do, but with that "small town feel" kind of place.
There are a maximum of 2 cars allowed in the parking garage for our unit. A parking pass is required for each vehicle and must be purchased by the renter upon arrival at the 2nd floor front desk or guard shack for $50/each pass- it is good for the length of your stay. This rate is subject to change by the Association and is paid to them through credit card only. This pass must be displayed whenever your vehicle is parked on the property.
The 24 hour security staff provided by the condo are outstanding.
The Seawind is a Non-Smoking/no vaping Property. This includes not only each condo, but the balcony as well. There are designated smoking areas away from any indoor/outdoor common areas.
Although we love animals too, this is a no pets complex. This is vigorously enforced by the Seawind. If you are found with a pet on the premises, you will be subject to immediate eviction. DO NOT Bring your pet!
We strive to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. We want you to let us know if you have any question, concerns, or suggestions of how to improve your stay. We honestly welcome your feedback! We want this to be your favorite beach vacation ever!

This a great complex for families. Beautiful beach views, easy walk to the beach, the hot tub and pool area is nice and the building is close to just about everything you'll need ok the area--restaurants, shopping, groceries, etc. our particular condo was exactly as described and a great get away for our family!
Clean, comfortable and feels like home! Easy access to pools and beach. The property Only a short walk to gift shops, and restaurants. Very family friendly.
Was such a beautiful and wonderful time visiting Gulf Shores with my family! The view on the balcony was beautiful, our stay was 10/10! The condo was very nice inside and comfortable for my family of 8 we had enough room and space for us all. The beach wasn’t a far walk at all, we really enjoyed the pool/kiddo area. We can’t wait to come back! Everything is close by & can even walk to the hangout restaurant!
Offered everything we needed for our little vacation. Location was perfect and the pool was enjoyed by all. The ocean views were perfect andbthe beds were the most comfortable ive been in. The babies loves the kiddie pool area so much i was woke up at 630 in the morning asking nana we go to pool.
Highly recommend! They have everything you could imagine for your use while there. My little LOVED all the toys they had there and the splash pad was amazing. Definitely will be back!
I can't say enough great things about our stay. The location of the property is amazing, and the view was incredible. Being on the 4th floor gives beautiful access to the beach and water at all times. The property owners were very timely and helpful in their response when I had questions both before and during our stay. The unit was clean, well stocked with appliances/kitchen necessities, and the bedrooms were spacious with comfortable beds. My 4 year old loved the bunk bed as well. I would highly recommend this property, and we hope to come back someday. I was truly sad having our stay come to an end.
This condo was perfect! Excellent location, very clean, and had everything you could need! The beach toys and toys/games in the condo were perfect for the kids! We had a slight issue with the keypad working and the owners were prompt in getting the issues resolved very quickly! Would definitely stay again!
Fantastic! Enjoyed our time at Seawind in Gulf Shores
The owners and property manager was so accommodating and responded quickly when reaching out with any questions. The location was perfect with beach access and wonderful views from inside and on the balcony. The color scheme was soothing and the decor was well done without being too beachy. It was clean and had everything we needed plus space to spread out. You can easily walk to many restaurants and shops. We would certainly book this condo again!
We absolutely loved the condo. We will definitely book again. The location and view was amazing. Being on the 4th floor was perfect. The only negative thing about the place was the elevator always being packed. Other than that, it was perfect.
Repairs are needed for this property… the refrigerator has a large crack in the interior wall, the drawers in the guest room dresser were broken, the faucets leaked, couch cushions need to be cleaned. Layout is good, balcony furniture very nice.
- Elevator issue was a nightmare. This alone will make us rethink another stay. We spoke to other guest that said this was an issue for years prior. - kiddie pool water was ice cold compared to other pool which littles could not use due to depth - couch had multiple stains giving uneasy vibes for lounging - kitchen cabinets and guest bathroom wall was dirty. Guest tub slow to drain. - mattress was great. Thanks for that.

Response from VrboOwner on 12 Nov 2025
The elevators are being refurbished at this time of year when it is typically less busy. We are sorry if you experienced delays because of that. We stay pretty booked up and we have to have a day between renters to get the couch cleaned to allow it to dry. I’m sorry it was not looking its best. We actually cleaned it this week. Wish it had been the week before your stay, not after!
Unfortunately, the kiddie pool is not heated and might be too cool in the off season as well. The indoor/outdoor pool is heated as are the hot tubs. I’m sorry your kids weren’t old enough to enjoy those amenities! Thanks for the mattress complement! They are everyone’s favorites!
We spent 5 days at in this unit and it did not disappoint! The unit was clean, comfortable and well-stocked with everything we needed! We traveled with 4 adults and 4 children, and there was plenty of room for all of us. The beach chairs, umbrella, and basket of sand toys was an unexpected added bonus! We’ve vacationed in Gulf Shores for 10+ years and would gladly return to this unit in the future! The owners were incredibly accommodating and were easy to communicate with. We’ll definitely recommended this rental to our friends and family!
We thought the VRBO was wonderfully decorated and if we are honest, had much more than we needed.
We sat on the patio daily…morning and evening. The bathrooms were very updated and quite nice. Linens were the same.
The complex wasn’t especially full while we were there so we never had a wait.
We didn’t use the pool/fitness area but it seemed nice.
Our favorite: watching dolphins and pelicans from the patio.
The beach was crowded during our stay, and the indoor/outdoor pool was a bit cold and cloudy, but we were there during the biggest rush of the year, so this isn't unexpected for any property. The condo was exceptional: none of the minor "broken but hastily fixed" things you see in some condos. Solid furniture. Good utensils, dishes, and small appliances. You can tell the owners actually live hear for a good portion of the year. Very well maintained.
This condo is in a great location. Once you park, just about anything you need is within walking distance which is a great when you have teens that you don’t want driving on unfamiliar roads. Water play area for small kids is just below the balcony, but is not noisy or bothersome for those without small kids. Unit being on the 4th floor makes it easy to avoid the elevators during peak times. Although on a lower floor, it still has a great view of beach. Rain showers are easy to escape by walking over to shelter under Sea N Suds just next door. Very pleased with the location.
