About this property

Spectacular Gulf Front, top floor condo! Boardwalk 1085 next to Sea N Suds!

Boardwalk 1085 is professionally managed by Sunset Properties.
You must be 25 to rent this property.

Condo will sleep 4 plus*. King Bed, Sleeper Sofa,1 ½ Bathrooms, Full Kitchen with Island, Breakfast Bar, Dining Table, Washer/Dryer, High-Speed Internet, 2 Smart TVs, New Furniture & Appliances - all the comforts of home.

Boardwalk 1085 – A Special Unit:

Back in the early days, BW1085 was affectionately known as “The Penthouse” for good reason. It has the largest living room of any unit in the building providing: 20 ft. of southern glass wall giving you a panoramic view of ocean and beach, Large floor space for all of you to stretch out and not feel cramped. *(We sometimes used to line the floor with sleeping bags and air mattresses for our kids and their friends). The extra bathroom is always handy even if it’s just the two of you. Total floor space indoors is larger than 2-bedroom units at Boardwalk. This is a non-smoking no-pet condo right on the beach. Check out the photos and rental pricing. We hope you will choose Boardwalk Condominium and BW1085.

**The shower is a garden tub/shower combo that you have to step up to get into.

Boardwalk Condominium has 70 Units on 10 Floors, not too big and not too small. It’s just right. Gigantic pool deck running the entire length of the building. Even during the busy season you’re not crowded for sunbathing or just relaxing on provided lounge chairs. The pool is heated during the cooler seasons. Step off the pool deck right onto the sugar white beach. Elevators of course, and permanent barbecue grills if you enjoy outdoor cooking. Restaurants - There are three within a very short walking distance from Boardwalk. The popular ‘Sea-n-Suds’ is right next door also on the beach. Nice view from outside deck. Also, near are ‘The Island House’ and a ‘Waffle House’ is across the street. You may have seen The National Shrimp Festival and the Hangout Musical Festival on TV. They Both take place ½ mile to the west of Boardwalk as do the NCAA National Beach Volleyball Championships. This is the Public Beach Area of Gulf Shores – very nice to stroll through. To the east of Boardwalk, also about ½ mile is the Gulf State Park, scenic for nature lovers.

For a vacation Gulf Shores has much to offer: Golf, Fishing, Swimming, Tennis, Shopping, Dining. Other places to visit include the Outlet Mall and OWA in Foley, Waterville Theme Park, Adventure Island, Gulf Shores Zoo, Fort Morgan Historic Site, Ferry to Dauphin Island, National Aviation Museum (Pensacola), and much more. There is plenty to do for kids and adults alike.

Some inconveniences

Overall, it was ok.. I feeling if we’re having to pay cleaning fee, we shouldn’t have to supply garbage bags and toilet paper. Also we were without water completely for 4 hours one day but no discount was given back to me.

Fabulous stay

Checkin was so easy. The condo was spacious and clean. The security guards were very helpful and friendly. The pool was nice and easy access to the beach. Our daughter and her family stayed in a lower unit and it was nice to be in the same condo building. We really enjoyed our stay!

Poor shower design

We loved the location. Our only complaint is the shower in our unit. It was difficult getting in out of shower and there was no hold bars to help. Definitely not a good situation. One other thing is when we fixed breakfast there no turners to flip our eggs. We would probably stay again but only if the shower is better

DO NOT BOOK

Please just book another place. I recommend Topic Isles. This was dirty. It was not cleaned and only just picked up. From finger nails, boogers on the wall, hair behind headboard, USED band aids on the floor to finding a live roach. Contacted property before finding the roach immediately upon arrival to state the issues with the cleaning. They then sent a cleaning person. We know they came only because the bedding was changed. All of our issues were still the same. Make up was also stolen. THEN WE FIND A LIVE ROACH! IMMEDIATELY packed up and informed the company we would be leaving. At some point they just stopped responding to us. I was told to send an email about what happened and include any pictures we had. Didn’t hear annything back until 4 days later. All they anrw offering is to refund a cleaning fee!? WE LEFT! YOUR PLACE HAS ROACHES. Extremely disappointed. I’m disgusted my family and I even laid our heads on the pillows. Beyond upset about make up being taken as well. Shouldn’t have to cry on vacation. Terrible place.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Once we get into our room we had a great time. The view is amazing and the fact we could just walk out the board walk and be right on the beach was the best part. We would/will be back again!

Perfect Location and some pleasant surprises

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Locations on the beach are great. What was nice about this one was walking distance to shops, restaurants and bars. One direction the beach was the busier public beaches and the other was much quieter due to minimal properties. Balcony had minimal settling/chairs and was small in depth, and the photos show that. Was pleasantly surprised by the size of the living space and by the perfectly heated pool. Mgmt company was very responsive and proactive.

Stay on the beach

Loved being right on the beach. Being on the top floor was a plus. Communication with the owner was lacking. The ceiling had a leak which was not fixed prior to our arrival. The owner did not tell us about this prior to our arrival.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Positives - great location, excellent beach front with umbrellas and chairs available for rental. Good size condo and very clean overall. Management was very responsive to a small issue that we had and remedied it right away! Communication was excellent. Negaives - did not like carpet at the beach, balcony very very small and narrow so a chair would barely fit. We noticed it was the only condo in the building with that tiny balcony.

Yucky weather inside and out!!

After a terrible rain and wind the ceiling of our living room started leaking and also saw a big cockroach run across couch where I just got up! Double red flags were up all three days we were there!! Didn’t even get to the beach to walk!!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay at Gulf Shores and this condo is in an ideal location to enjoy many nearby attractions. We had no complications with the entire process of renting and using this condo and we had no problems that required a call to the management even though we were provided options for doing so. Our only concern was with the shower. You must go up 2 steps to get in the shower and there are no handrails. Anyone with mobility issues would find this dangerous.

Filthy Condo

First off let me say we have booked so many houses and condos through VRBO and have been very pleased. We arrived around 8:00 pm to this one and when we arrived the sinks were filthy coffee grounds still around the kitchen sink the bathrooms had dried spit in them, and around the tub were black hair and dust. Also black hair all over the walls. The sheets on the bed were dirty when we tried to pull the sheets off whatever they were using for the mattress, cover had, dried blood and all types of brown stains when we contacted management. The glass tables had fingerprints all over them.They said they could only drop off sheets and they didn’t arrive to our condo until 10 PM. They drop the sheets at the door and walked away didn’t even make her bed for us .We had to put the satin sheets I am assuming from their personal home that they brought on top of our comforter because we were not wanting to sleep on the nasty mattress when when I contacted management again the next morning they said the owner had not paid the cleaner to do a deep clean. This condo is disgusting after they sent someone out after 2 o’clock to clean our condo. We still had to go buy cleaning supplies to clean the tub again ourselves still had the same dust and hair around the top edges of the tub. No one has contacted me since we checked out. Very disappointed. There was no concern that we had given up a complete night and day not being able to use our condo because of it not being clean.
