This place was beautiful and immaculately clean. Loved how peaceful and quiet it was. The amenities were ample as far as cooking was concerned and the apartment was very well maintained. We hope to come back next summer for a longer amount of time!

Perfect Place for a Beautiful Beach Stay
This condo was the perfect size for my small family! It had everything we needed along with a great view of the beach and access. I loved the decor and how clean it was! The host was very helpful and recommended things right away to make our visit even better. Would definitely stay here again.
This condo is adoravle, clean, cozy, and convenient. Works great for a family with kids. The host is awesome, very easy to communicate with, and responds to messages very quickly. This is a great becah if you like fishing. And from what i saw this seems to be a go to spot for families. Very calm and relaxing vibe.
We all loved staying here. The beach view from the balcony is awesome and we enjoyed it a lot. The beach is just a shot walk from the Condo. It has both warm and cold water pools. Kids enjoyed both. Restaurants are in walkable distance and food also good there. Condo is pretty clean as listed and has all things you needed.
We wrapped up our stay at Turtles Nest, West today and have really enjoyed our time in Alabama! Jennifer is a great host, and this unit is laid out and decorated perfectly for an ocean get away.
We enjoyed the quiet Condo. The Gulf was not far at all. Just a short walk right out of the main floor of the building. Everything we needed was in the Condo. We hope to come back and stay longer.
This was a great little condo! Everything was very well kept and spacious for our family of 4, kids are 3 and 6. The view was beautiful and everything functioning properly. Beds were OK, it’s hard to find a bed that’s just right. The couch was fine, it wasn’t the most comfortable but we didn’t spend the most time on it. Lobby was always clean, smelled great. Elevators worked timely and locking/unlocking the room was great. Appliances worked correctly too.Some personal negatives for me but it wouldn’t impact me recommending this place to anyone. - the walk to the actual beach, is ROUGH. The sand is also extremely hot in the middle of the day. My two kids were bravely struggling to get to the boardwalk. - the pools are not chilled. I know this isn’t super common but it’s something to think about. It was probably bath water temperature, 90. - would recommend a curved shower curtain rod- couch that allows for some extended lounging.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication
Such a wonderful condo and location! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Jennifer gave us great information on the facility and area. We will definitely use her rental group again.
Lovely condo for a beach stay. Just the right size for one, but would be great for couple or couple + kid too. Location perfect (restaurants, shopping, beach, birds, pools). Lots of extra touches to make things nice. Only suggestions would be to add a side chair with ottoman in the living area, and to have detailed instructions on TV operation (remotes, Direct TV versus Vizeo, for both sets).
We had a wonderful stay! Jennifer was so helpful and gave wonderful recommendations.
Condo was perfect! So quiet! We had everything we needed to relax and enjoy the beach! We will be back soon!

Fantastic little condo
This condo was in a cool little complex that was very clean and very peaceful. Even during peak times one of the pools was empty or close to it. The staff were nice and all the people there pretty laid back. The walk was a little bit further than "right on the beach" as we usually do but only but a minute or two. The view was on the way and definitely not long enough to downgrade the experience. Just keep that in mind if you're carrying a bunch of stuff. The beach was very spacious and unlike Destin, Panama City, Ormand, or Gulf Shores you could easily get chairs right on the beach with no one within 10 feet of you. We did have problems with the rental chairs company as they messed up our week long order almost every day. They also setup late but did pick up late too. The condo itself was very clean. No sand, mold, bugs, or gross things encountered. The condo is only 1 1/2 bath just to make sure people don't think it is two full baths. It was bigger than expected but still a one family condo with everything you need to get started relaxin' on the beach.
This place was awesome! It was perfect for what we wanted. Perfect location. Felt very safe. If we go again, I will not look anywhere else. This will be my first choice!
Great host with the right amount of communication. Nicely decorated condo with a short walk to the beach. Pools are heated and not very busy. The beach was clean and void of weeds and smells, just beautiful soft sand. We can't wait to book a return trip to this place.
