Great Family Spot!

We had a fantastic stay at the beach condo last week. It was perfect for our family, with plenty of amenities to keep everyone comfortable and entertained. The owner was excellent with communication, making everything smooth and easy. One minor downside was the internet, which was nearly non-existent at night. Despite this, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.

Ocean getaway

The property was accurately described and looked like the pictures. It was clean and well stocked for cooking and such. Beach chair and umbrella rental was right outside our condo and lots of things to do close such as water activities. We walked to a lot of restaurants and shops and such due to the good location. A lot of people everywhere all the time during July. So if you want a busy scene that is what you will get. Overall, we enjoyed our trip and would come back.

Great location- responsive hosts!

From the search process to check in our hosts were amazing and responsive. We had questions specific to accessibility for our Wheelchair bound child and they addressed them immediately. When we checked in, they were ready to answer questions about that process and make sure we were comfortable in the unit. The complex security was amazing. I made us feel safe, even though there was an unfortunate event in town during our visit. The complex itself was clean, well cooked and accessible to the beach and pool for our family. We found the location perfectly central in the middle of things, but not too busy. Who would stay here again and heartbeat :-)

GREAT CONDO/SUPER LOCATION

The condo was big, clean, up to date, nice view and super location. Only draw back, and this is not the owner fault at all, there are only 2 elevators. And with a property policy of all check ins are at 4. Thats an issue. Especially when one elevator continues to break. Parkng can be an issue too. But i will say again. The room was GREAT and location is SUPER.

I have never written a review before, so I hope i cam wording this correctly! This condo was beautiful from bed room to kitchen to outdoor sitting! The condo was clean and bright. The beds were comfortable, showers clean, kitchen had everything you could need! Great view of the ocean! The girls and I had a great experience and we were so thankful for the condo! Condo is located right on beach, no streets or pavement-just sand!! It was located next to souvenier shops, stores, Wal-Mart, and so many choices for dining! We wanted to cancel our plans for this week and stay longer! THANK YOU FOR CREATING SUCH A MEMORABLE AND AWESOME EXPERIENCE AT GULF SHORES!!!

Family Vacation

The condo was really nice and there was a beautiful view. The complaint I have is the security guard was rude. He was an older gentleman who followed you around trying to find something we were doing wrong. He closed the pool down early one night because a group had a radio playing and EVERYONE was having fun. Next night new set of rules were up. We were all on vacation to have fun not to be told we couldn’t do this or that. This was a big concern by many.

Gulf Shores Vacay

We stayed at this direct beach front condo mid June. It was clean and spacious and beautifully decorated. The location was excellent with a restaurant beach front and a market across the street. The elevators were always working and easily accessible. We enjoyed the outstanding morning and evening views from the balcony facing rooms. Great water pressure in their beautifully remodeled showers. Comfortable beds and bedding for our family. The only issue was the smoke alarm was not working and lying on a table nearby. It didn’t affect us at all though. We left a day early because our child was stung by jellyfish. Not the property’s fault and it’s a normal beach hazard. We saw no sharks at all! Overall a great beach experience.
