Thank you for choosing our condo. I agree our location is the best kept secret of all beach front properties. Laid back and quiet, yet close enough to “the action” to go for an evening or a day and then leave the crowds behind afterwards. Please call on us any time and keep my direct contact info to avoid third party fees.
We had the best time ever loved the condo and place location was awesome perfect for adults and kids! We will definitely go back to the same place!!

Thank you for choosing our condo! We also love the convenience of this condo. No stairs or elevators are necessary; it’s easy to load and unload right at the front door; the amenities are all convenient to the patio; and yet you can still see the Gulf water from the condo even though it’s ground floor.
Please call on us again, any time!
Clean, stocked,and on the ground floor, so no elevator or stairs! Great communication with John (host). A great trip! Another awesome stay at my fav beach!

Hi, thanks for the great review! I finally got in there on August 28 after being booked all Summer! I was so pleased at the condition of the condo after all those weeks of rentals. A little touching up and extra cleaning and organizing the kitchen, and we are ready for the Sept and October rentals! Thanks to you and the other guests for being respectful and good guests and taking care of the place as if it were your own. Call on us any time!
The condo was just as described. It was clean, neat and met all of our needs, close to dining, the outdoor pool and hot tub as well as the boardwalk to the beach. We will definitely stay here again!

Loved this place
We really enjoyed our stay, this is the perfect condo for a family with young children. The grassy area right off the patio was perfect for frisbee, kicking the soccer ball etc, and the kiddy pool was really close. Parking is right out your door and the resort is well mantained. Highly recommend

1 br 1 ba was perfect for us....and the biggest plus was groundfloor walkout patio to the pools and boardwalk to beach. The unit was clean and furnished well, bed was comfortable, and kitchen well-stocked! We have already booked this unit for next year!

Hi,
Thank you for staying with us. It was our pleasure having you as a guest and we appreciate you calling on us any time! Our favorite thing about the condo is also the convenience of stepping right off the patio and having all the amenities there close: a tennis court, grill, hot tub, pools, the boardwalk and beach. And easy access without ever needing to use the stairs or elevator. You are always welcome!
We love this ground floor unit.....just steps to the pool, hot tub, and boardwalk to the beautiful Gulf! Unit is comfortable, clean, and the kitchen is well-stocked with everything we need to make our meals! We made contact with the owner regarding a minor issue and he responded promptly and issue resolved! Our 2nd year here and we woll be back!minor issue and he responded

Hi Tammy,
Thank you for choosing us! This is my family’s favorite condo because it is so convenient to the amenities, as you described. Please call again.
This was our first time staying at Plantation Palms and it was perfect! Being on the ground floor made it even more amazing. It was perfect for our little kids to be able to walk right out onto the patio and into the grassy area. The tennis court is right there which was great for our nine year old who loves Pickleball. The condo was just as described and was exactly what we needed. We will definitely book with John again.
Love this resort. This particular condo was extremely outdated. Beds are extremely uncomfortable all of our backs hurt from every bed there. Floor condo is the way to go here for sure.

Hi, thank you for the 4 rating. The condo and furnishings are as pictured (or newer than pictured for new items that don’t warrant a new photograph), so you rented what you thought you were getting, There should have been no surprises. We could upgrade flooring, and remodel the kitchen and bath, but the rent would then increase accordingly, thus shutting out people looking for below market rates. Market rates are more substantial. We strive to keep a clean, well-maintained condo at a price that appeals to budget travelers, since there are so few owners that choose that strategy these days. That will change for us eventually also as we upgrade to remain clean, functional, and well -maintained.
The bedding currently consists of a firm queen mattress set in the master, which is 2 years old. We buy firm, as it is the most common (as opposed to extra-firm, pillow top, plush, or memory foam, etc. The other beds consist of a queen sleeper with a two year old mechanism and standard sleeper mattress; and hall “bunkies” which are custom twin mattresses on a wooden platform. It is true that bunkies and sleepers are inherently uncomfortable and we limit adult-sized people to “2” in this condo as a result, because only kids find bunkies and sleeper sofas comfortable. I’m glad you enjoyed the property and amenities and the ground floor access and convenience. We like that as well. Thank you for booking, and feel free to call on us anytime for all that the area and this beach resort has to offer. The condo sleeps 6 maximum, with no more than 2 being adult sized people. Warmest regards and safe travels!
Loved the fact we were on the ground floor and so close to the pool. Beach was a little further walk than I would have liked but nothing to do with the owner or condo itself.
Bed was only a full size, wish it were a bit bigger! Bunk beds were perfect!

Thank you so much for choosing our condo! The ground floor convenience is something a lot guests never think about, but all the amenities are right there just steps from the patio and people find that is a big plus! I’m guessing you are used to a King bed, because the master does have a queen bed, not a full. I get it. We’d like a King in there also. But having more ‘bed’ room results in less ‘bedroom’ and would make the room very cramped. I wanted to clarify for anyone who might read the review that the master has a queen in it. Thanks for being great guests! Call on us any time!

About the host
Hosted by John Linn
We are a family of 3 from Birmingham, AL. We've owned our condos at Gulf Shores Plantation since 2001. We used to frequent Panama City, Fort Walton, Pensacola, and Destin. Since we visited Gulf Shores the first time, we have made this our preferred beach destination!
Why they chose this property
We chose Gulf Shores Plantation, Plantation Palms because it is in the gated, secure, family oriented Gulf Shores Plantation resort. There is plenty of white sandy beach, no through traffic, no honking horns, no screaming 'students gone wild'. It's the most relaxing, serene beach vacation left on the Gulf coast.
What makes this property unique
You have access to all the amenities of all 5 phases at no additional charge. The natural beaches have never required manual replenishment. The development setbacks protect the natural dunes and nesting sea turtles habitat. It's a short 15 minute drive to the crowds, amusements, and night life. Then when you are finished with that, you can come 'home' and enjoy the real star of the Gulf Coast - the sea and sun. Plantation Palms is a steel and concrete structure and newest phase of the Plantation resort.
