We loved the view from our balcony. The condo was a perfect size to accommodate us. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The balcony was large and plenty of chairs for all of us. We definitely would rent this condo again.
Our family really enjoyed our stay in Orange Beach. The property was terrific with great views. The condo was beautiful with everything available we could need. We would definitely stay again sometime in the future.

We stayed at this condo for 6 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The condo was very clean with a wonderful balcony view of the white sand beach. Plenty of room to feel right at home. Everything you need for a relaxing vacation. Several food store options within four blocks, and TONS of great restaurant options. We had never been to this area before and we were pleasantly surprised with Orange Beach and Gulf Shores. Fun area!
We really enjoyed the stay. We had a few issues but messaged them and it was taken care of. The balcony was great. We really enjoyed it having a lot of furniture and the lounge chairs. The size of the balcony is great. We will rent again.
We had a great time. We absolutely loved the condo. Property was clean and pool was beautiful! Only 2 issues was 1 of the elevators was down the entire time and we got there a little early and we didn’t know who to contact to see if we could get in a little early. Not the end of the world though. We just went in out to the beach. Will definitely stay again!!!

This was our first trip to Orange Beach! We loved the beaches, restaurants, and had fun exploring the gulf stye park. Hope to come back again. Condo was perfect for our family of 6. Enjoyed the large deck, full kitchen, laundry, and proximity to stores and restaurants! Ocean was chilly but the sand made excellent castles and holes for burying people!

We are so glad you enjoyed OBA. We hope you will visit Summer Sands again in the future!
This condo is located in a great area and not hard to find. I’m so glad I chose this as our home away from home. It was perfect for my family. The view of the beach was perfect. The pool area is beautiful. The building is under renovation and parking was a little tight until it is completed. I would definitely recommend this place. The owner was really helpful with an issue we had and it was taken care of immediately.

Unit was clean, beds were comfortable, balcony was perfect size and the view was amazing! Communication with owner was easy and timely. Unit was perfect size for our group of 6 with plenty of room to hang out - both inside and out. When/if we go back to Orange Beach, will definitely try to get this unit again. Thanks Lynne and Matt for sharing your space with us!

We loved the layout of the condo. It was clean. They called us a bit early because the cleaning crew got done early so we got to go ahead and check in the condo a little bit early. Beautiful view from the nice big balcony.
The ocean had jellyfish really bad all week that we were there so we didn't get to really get in the ocean (which we enjoy a bunch) so we hung out at the pool which was nice.
Thank you for sharing your place with us.

We are glad you enjoyed our condo and the pools. So sorry for the week of jellyfish because you never know when that is going to happen. However we are glad you enjoyed our pools. The view from the large balcony is fabulous and we are glad you totally enjoyed your time spent on the balcony. Yes we do always try and get our guests in as early as possible and if our ladies finish cleaning early we always call our guests. thank you for letting us know that they did and excellent job cleaning because as you can see this is very important to us. We always want our condo to be clean and well appointed for each and every guest. We look forward to having you and your family stay with us again
We loved our stay! The property was as advertised! A short distance to shops/restaurants and the beach wasn’t too busy! You can sit and drink a morning cup of coffee while watching the marine life move along the coast! All the beds were soft and cozy! Love the walk in shower for my little baby it was east o clean him off from the sandy beach. I highly recommend bringing extra cleaning and toiletries. We loved being able to do laundry to go home with clean belongings! The floor did make our feet discolored no matter what efforts we took to wipe them clean(no biggie, beach/sand feet life lol) anyways, if you are looking for a great place to stay this is it! We were just outside of the hustle and bustle of gulf shores but still had a slice of paradise! We will be back next year!! Can’t wait!!! Just need the dates to open lol

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! We love that our home away from home was comfortable for your group! We look forward to hosting you again next year!
The property was under construction which we were made aware of but it was worse than we expected. It was very noisy and loud and extremely messy. The parking was a nightmare. They had extra parking across the street, but crossing a 4 lane was not ideal.
The condo was wonderful. it was well stocked, clean and comfortable. The only item we wished it had was higher chairs on the balcony to be able to see the view without looking thru the railing or standing. The bed configuration worked well for our family.
The location is very convenient to the grocery, shopping and eating. The walk to the beach was short and had no stairs. The pool and pool area was well maintained.
We will be back when the construction is complete. It will be beautiful when it is done.
The host was very responsive to questions prior to arrival and while we were there.
Thanks

Lots of room, Great view
We came to Orange Beach for Spring Break with our three teenagers. We were happy to find this condo available at the last minute. It appealed to me because there were enough beds that all three teenagers could have their own and not have to share or have someone sleeping on a sofa bed. The kitchen had everything we needed to make a few meals and save a little money on dining out. The view of the beach was awesome and the balcony furniture was very comfortable. The condo was very close to a Wal-Mart Neighborhood Grocery Store and a Publix. Restaurants and entertainment were also close and convenient. I wish we could have spent more time out at the beach, but temperatures were a little chilly. I felt safe here and we felt safe letting our kids go down to the beach/pool without us (although they didn't stay long because of the weather!) We spent a day at Gulf State Park and rode bicycles rented from Beach Bike Rentals on Perdido Beach Blvd. There are great trails in the park and the bike rentals were perfect. Lots of good restaurants to choose from, but we enjoyed Doc's the most! Overall we had a great experience and if we ever travel to Orange Beach again, we will gladly rent this unit again.

Thank you for your kind words. We are so glad you did find our condo at the last minute. Yes we agree that the views are fabulous and that the Gulf Shores/Orange Beach area has so much to offer. We so hope you will make another trip to our area and stay with us once again.
We were very happy with our stay. Had plenty of room and felt very comfortable. There was an issue with the guest bathroom toilet which Pam had repaired immediately the next day.
The condo was very clean. I appreciated all the extra towels. I've never stayed in a rental with enough towels for everyone! The kitchen was well stocked and all the cooking utensils were in good shape ( not rusty, which I've experienced in other rentals). We enjoyed the balcony and the incredible ocean view. The beds were very comfortable.
The condo property is well maintained. It is a gated community so it was nice knowing security was present. We had no issues with the elevators, they were clean and very quick to arrive.
Overall, you cannot go wrong renting from Pam. She checked on us on day of arrival and responded immediately when I reached out to her regarding the toilet. We are already planning our 2023 trip and hope to rent this great unit again.
Thanks Pam and Jim for letting us use your unit as our home away from home!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review. We are so glad you found our Beach Home to be the perfect spot and look forward to having you back again very soon
The condo was everything it said it would be. The view from the balcony was perfect! From morning coffee, to dinner in the evenings, there was dolphin sightings every day, which was definitely a highlight of our trip. I would recommend this condo to any of my family or friends. If we return to Orange Beach, this will be our go to property!

Property needs a little updating. Door handles were broke or loose but very good location and view of the ocean was beautiful. Had a good view of dolphins every morning.

We are glad you enjoyed your stay. I will check out each door handle.
We overall enjoyed our stay at this condo. We did have issues with the cleanliness of the floors, even after the cleaning service came out a 2nd time after check in to clean them. We ended up going and buying a swiffer ourselves to clean the floors as one was not provided with the condo and the floors were still dirty after the 2nd cleaning. Also, a majority of the dishes were dirty when we went to pull them out along with crumbs and sand in the kitchen drawers. We cleaned the dishes and utensils ourselves and the rest of the stay was great. Location was really good, the beds were comfortable and the setup worked well for our group.

We are glad you did overall enjoy your stay. I do apologize about the floors. I did send our cleaner back to redo the floors. I wish you had called and let me know you were still having issues. I'm sorry but as it says on the refrigerator that each guest is to wash their dishes and put back in the cabinets. This I cannot blame on our lady that cleans because she does not go into the cabinets at all unless someone leaves dishes in the dishwasher and she has to put them in the cabinet. I would have had no problem sending her back if you had asked.
About the host
Hosted by Lynne and Matt
Why they chose this property
We have vacationed in the Orange Beach/Gulf Shores area for many years. Our family shares many memories including family reunions and summer vacations and we always dreamed of owning a "little slice of paradise". That dream became a reality when we bought Summer House 702B in 2013 and made it our own. We are so happy to share our home with you and hope you have a wonderful stay.
What makes this property unique
The large, private balcony overlooking the blue waters of the gulf and it's sugar white sand beach is what sold us on Summer House. We enjoy our morning coffee watching the dolphins and pelicans fish for their breakfast. The convenient location is also a huge plus being close to great restaurants, shopping and family activities. Enjoy!
