Great, pet-friendly stay!

Not many places accept pets, and if they do there is usually a weight limit. This place was perfect for our gentle giant. The unit is well-equipped, well-maintained, and management communicates very clearly and is thorough in giving details. Excellent stay. We hope to come back!

Great location and view

The Caribbean condo 704 located in Gulf Shores was clean and well kept. The side unit had a great view from every window of the lagoon or the ocean. Since it was on the beach it was very convenient. We would stay here again.

Always a great stay

We have stayed in several of this owner's units in this complex. Each unit is always clean and has what we need to enjoy our stay. We like the complex is dog friendly, but still clean. We look for availability with this owner in this complex each time we visit Gulf Shores. Highly recommend!

Loved our stay!

Came down after Christmas for a quick getaway before a busy new year. The 7th floor end unit had a beautiful view of the gulf and the bay. Could see both sunrise and sunset from unit. No tall buildings blocking the view. It was updated and furnished with everything we needed. Loved that we were able to bring our small dog. Will definitely return.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. We had everything we needed and appreciated being able to bring our fur babies. We were close to all the Gulfshores attractions.

Loved that they welcome furbabies!! The cleaning service needs to use a different mopping method cause we like to go barefooted inside and our feet after being there for not even an hour were almost blackon the bottoms!!! Wasn’t crazy about the shower head in the master bath and the water pressure in both showers that would “come and go”! Loved that we had our own designated parking spot!! Overall, it was enjoyable

About the host

Hosted by Lance & Courtney Steffek

Host profile image
We live in Gulf Shores and love the area. We have 4 children; Emma, Lachlan, Lennox and Piper that love the beach and pools. We are not far away and enjoy staying at Caribbean when other families are not enjoying it. It has been such a joy owning this unit and being able to share it with other families throughout the year. And it has been a fun journey renovating; making it a truly luxurious, high-end destination.

Why they chose this property

We like the low density of only 32 units but all the amenities of a larger complex. Also the 9' ceilings which give it a larger feel than many of the other condos in the area.

What makes this property unique

Low density building with a salt water heated indoor pool, heated outdoor pool, fitness center, grill area and unobstructed Gulf views.
