Clean, cozy, well-stocked, and good location! Hosts were easy to communicate with, and we were grateful they worked with us last minute on extending our stay by an extra night since property was available. We would definitely consider renting again!

Great place to stay when going to the beach, Everything is close by; you are only two miles from the beach, and a couple of blocks from a Publix and Walmart. The condo extremely clean and decorated just perfect - great beach vibes. There are two bedrooms with a bathroom attached to each one. The master bedroom has a large walk-in shower, which was perfect for our needs. I waited to the last minute trying to book our condo because I was looking for the perfect place, and I believe I found it. The host was quick to respond to any messages and instructions when checking in. I look forward to returning to Gulf Shores and plan on staying here again!!!

Very nice and roomy condo. Bedrooms are a great size and beds were comfortable. Good location. Close to the pool. Not as close to the beach as we had hoped but very easy to access public beach behind the Hang Out. Very convenient location with stores and restaurants in close proximity . Had everything we needed. Negative: not enough towels but there is a washer and dryer if you don’t mind doing laundry on vacation.

Very clean condo lots of space. If you like your sleep you might wanna rethink... The person who lives upstairs gets up around 530-6am and they are very heavy foot. They walk back and forward til about 10am daily they also seem to vaccum every morning. They do it right over the bedrooms and you can hear it very clear i was woken up lots of times do to that.Other then that this place is really great and the host is very easy to contact if needed

Fantastic stay

We were so lucky to find this listing open at short notice. The location was amazing and my boys (15 and 2) loved the condo. My teen especially liked having his own bathroom! Very clean and had everything we needed. With a toddler, the proximity to Walmart and McDonald’s was a huge plus!

Perfect location for the price!!

We were in gulf shores for a baseball tournament. Super convenient to the ballpark and a short ride to the beach. Plenty of restaurants nearby and Walmart is blocks away if you want to save money on food for the week! Everything was clean and had tons of room in the condo! Definitely will recommend staying if you want to save $$$ and don’t mind driving to the beach!

About the host

Host profile image
We purchased this property after visiting Gulf Shores a couple of times. We knew we had to go back on a regular basis. We live in Illinois and try to visit at least twice a year!

Why they chose this property

Great location. A lot less traffic than right on the beach! Close to lots of great places to eat & shop. There are a lot of attractions close by too! Something for everyone!!!

What makes this property unique

Ground floor with a walk-in shower in a lower traffic part of the complex for more privacy. Each bedroom has it's own bathroom. Unit backs up to wooded area.
