About this property

Tropical Winds 801 Gulf Shores beachfront with balcony

From this top floor beachfront condo, you can hear the waves rolling onto the beautiful white sand beaches just feet away. Schools of dolphins and flocks of pelicans are among the vibrant ecosystem you can appreciate from the balcony or beach. Our comfortable 3 bedroom, 3 bath condo is tastefully furnished and equipped with all of the amenities you expect. Linens, bath towels, utensils and other essentials are provided so that you can just make yourself at home the moment you arrive. This condo has been renovated with wood planks throughout the condo, , granite countertops, a new king size bed in the master bedroom, new paint, and new draperies and bedspreads. Two of the bathrooms are renovated with marble showers. Besides the beach, only steps away from the building, you can enjoy the pool or nearby shopping, watersports, or miniature golf. Being close enough to the center of town allows easy access to some of the best restaurants on the beach. But you are far enough from the city so that its noise is never heard. This is OUR home-away-from-home, and we hope that you find as much pleasure as we do in its beauty and relaxation. Keywords: condo, beachfront, balcony

We absolutely loved our stay here! This condo had everything we needed and we loved all the space. This is our second stay at Tropical Winds (first time in this unit), and we will definitely be repeat visitors! The views were amazing! We saw dolphins almost every day. And the short walk to the beach is perfect!Thank you to Nancy for allowing us to use her condo and create some wonderful family memories!
