The pool area is nicely secluded providing convenient family fun and a little more shield on those windy days!

Please wash and roll back up before checkout. Two beach chairs are available as well.

Our family of 7 had the best time in Gulf Shores. The weather was cooler than typical for the time of year which was a bummer but we made the best of it. Taunya’s condo at Ocean Reef was a perfect fit for our family - the kids all had comfy beds and the kitchen was well stocked so we could make most of our meals there and keep the trip budget intact! We were grateful for the opportunity to use the sand toys and beach chairs too. Great location - right on the beach and a few souvenir shops and restaurants within walking distance. The local Wal-Mart pick up was quick and easy too for groceries and necessities. We can’t wait to plan our next trip down to Alabama!
Property was very nice and convenient to The Hangout for an easy walk to and from the venue for breaks! Very clean and the owner made sure our stay was perfect from start to finish! Will definitely stay again if in town
It was overall a good stay! But if you pay a cleaning service to clean your condo they are not doing it properly! We cleaned before unpacking ! Easy check in , kitchen well stocked! Wifi kept going in and out ! great pool at resort and easy access to beach !

Robert, I reached out to you via text message when you checked in. If our condo was not cleaned properly, I would have sent our cleaners back. I’m sorry that you had to clean once you arrived.
This property is amazing! We have stayed there three years in a row during our spring break. Close to amenities and restaurants. And the beach is literally ten steps away! The owners are amazing and are always so friendly and helpful! We will definitely be back!
Our townhouse provided plenty of room for our family of 7 total. Loved the easy beach access and the beach chairs and beach towels provided by our host.The kitchen was well stocked for cooking in some evenings.The pool was very close and convenient especially since we had a lot of red flag days. Would totally recommend.
Kitchen was very well stocked! Loved the loft room for our kids. Washer and dryer was a plus! Location walking distance to all Gulf Shores activities. Beach was really nice.
Condo was clean. The condo was conveniently close to the pool and beach. Taunya always promptly got back to my emails. We would definitely stay again.

Nice size unit for our group of eleven
We enjoyed this unit as it was footsteps from the beach and offer a balcony with a good view. Also the owner did everything to make sure we enjoyed our stay. There were games to play for the family as well, definitely would stay here again and recommend this unit in the future.

Condo was fabulous!!! Fit our crew of 7 perfectly! Just a short walk to the beach, food locations and shops. Kids enjoyed the pool. Washer and dryer comes in hand, you can see the ocean from the balcony. Highly recommend the stay.

About the host
Hosted by Taunya
My husband and I have been married since 2005. We have four amazing kids. We've been coming to Gulf Shores for years and just recently became owners. Several other relatives are owners in the area and we love vacationing here with our extended family. There are so many fun activities to do with our kids in Gulf Shores.
Why they chose this property
Anything this close to the main intersection (59/Beach Blvd) is prime location with walking distance to it all. You aren't paying for square footage as much as you are paying for location. Plus its on the beach side! You don't have to drive or walk your family across a 5 lane highway. We chose Gulf Shores because we love the white sandy beaches and the beautiful blue water. We have so many special memories with our extended family in Gulf Shores and with our own little family. We also love the family friendly, relaxed atmosphere Gulf Shores offers. There are so many delicious restaurants close by our condo and they are reasonably priced. Our kids have a lot of fun at The Hangout, playing mini golfing, especially playing on the beach, and swimming in the ocean. A place our kids must go every time we are in Gulf Shores is Souvenir City as they call it the Shark Store. It is a short drive to Lulu's and The Track which are a family favorite.
What makes this property unique
We love the town house style our condo has to offer. We also love the pool area is fenced off so our young kids cannot get into the pool area without us opening the gate. Our location is perfect with direct access to the beach, close to so many restaurants especially The Hangout, close to festivals, and a short walk gets you to many of the souvenir shops. Our balcony gives you perfect views of the beach, sounds of waves crashing onto the shore, and our porch gives you the beautiful view of our pool. We like having laundry access right in our condo whereas some other units do not offer this.
