The condo was clean, very well equipped and nicely decorated. The location was perfect, close to everything, but quiet and peaceful also. Parking was plentiful and convenient. Sitting on the balcony, just listening to the waves was such a relaxing delight. I hope to rent this same condo on all my trips to Gulf Shores. Suzanne

Great Vacation Rental!

Had everything you needed for the beach except beach towels. (Chairs,umbrella,sand toys, wave boards and even sand clips to hold down your towels). Make sure to get trash bags, paper towels and toilet paper. They only have 1 of each.

Thank you so much for the 5-star review! We're thrilled to hear the beach gear came in handy—it's great to know the chairs, umbrella, toys, and even the sand clips made your beach days easier. And yes, as you noted, we provide a starter supply of essentials, and our “Things to Bring” list mentions bringing extra items like trash bags and paper products. We really appreciate you sharing those helpful tips for future guests and hope to welcome you back for another great stay!

Fell and broke 5 bones

Condo was clean. Love the area. Walked into condo from balcony and left foot caught on the thresh hold, and fell face down on tile floor. Had to call paramedics and ambulance. Taken to South Baldwin Hospital. Broke my arm, and 4 bones in shoulder. Had to cut vacation short and return to Kentucky. I’ve had to have surgery to replace shoulder with a new one. Horrendous ordeal which I’ll never forget. NOt to mention the pain and money I’ve had to go through.

40th birthday getaway

My best friend and I came spur of the moment to celebrate our 40th birthdays. Originally we were headed to Marco Island,FL but hurricane Ian had other plans. We couldn't have had a better time! The water and beach was beautiful, so clear And clean. We saw dolphins, we made friends with the neighbors in the beach- everyone was so super friendly. The condo was beautiful, cute and modern. Super easy access to beach! We used the workout room every day! We will be talking about this vacation for years to come and we'll be back!
