Our stay couldn’t have been better. The check in process was seamless. We had a wonderful 2 weeks. Swimming in the pool and walking along the beach were our favorite activities. Of course, the balcony view was beautiful so we spent a lot of time there too. It was just the two of us, and we found the master bed was extremely comfortable. Everything was great! Thank you for sharing your condo.

The condo itself was very nice, and the location couldn’t have been better. We did run into two minor issues during our stay:1. Staying in the East building meant we didn’t have access to the gym, though we made up for it by taking daily walks.2. We loved the idea of relaxing on the balcony, but nearby smokers made it difficult to sit outside for long since the smoke drifted directly onto our balcony.Aside from those things, we truly had a wonderful vacation and enjoyed our time there.

Great location. Easy access to beach and either a short walk or quick drive to plenty of food options.
Property was clean, stocked with dishes, and everything in working order. Unfortunately the weather wasn't great for most of our stay, but it comes with the time of year. We would definitely stay again otherwise!

Perfect winter getaway
Very nice condo with a beautiful view of the beach and gulf. We enjoyed walking on the beach and watching dolphins playing in the water. The bed was very comfortable. All the dining chairs were very tall which made it a little uncomfortable for us older people, but we had a great stay never the less.

Senior Year Spring Break 2023
Senior year spring break trip with my husband, son and his friend. The location and condo was perfect. The condo was nice with modern upgrades, with the perfect seating while watching whales in the mornings on the deck facing the ocean. Walking distance to the, “hang out” for the boys and across the street from a fun little Italian spot, called “Laura’s”. Live music at both locations. Only downside was, the timing of our trip was 50 degrees…other than that—was a relaxing short trip from normal life.

The condo was very nice ! Exactly what we needed!Only problem main bathroom only started us with half a roll of toilet paper. I know we had to furnish after I thought a roll. 3 women need at least a roll.We were not planning on going anywhere we first arrived. I’m sure it was a over look by house keeping.

Gulf Shores Condo
The view is absolutely amazing! Unit was decent and clean and stocked with plenty of dishes and working appliances.
A unit close by above us was being worked on causing very loud noises during the day. Cutting of material took place in the parking lot and got dust all over our vehicle. We had to hunt down a car wash to clean it. We reported both of these incidents to the office at the property.
The toilet was loose in the master bathroom when we arrived and we reported it for attention needed. The bathroom sinks drained slowly and we reported these as well to ALBVR.

Average
Great location and the condo fit our needs. Overall, it was a fabulous stay and there were no major issues requiring a call for repair; however, the following things need maintenance attention (nothing that ruined our stay but small things that affect the listing): master bedroom shower knobs are falling off, no dresser in master bedroom, missing HDMI cable in twin bed room so TV didn’t work, mirror in master bedroom needs replaced as the design doesn’t allow an average height person or taller to see unless bending down, twin beds are extremely creaky with every slight movement due to the headboard being attached at the wrong height. Also, in the listing it says that there is a fitness room available. When we asked where it was, we were told we couldn’t use it unless we were in the other building (Island Winds west). This was misleading.

Great View, Some Disappointments
Staying on the beach was fabulous. We loved watching the birds and dolphins right outside our windows and balcony. It made up for some of the shortcomings of our visit. First impression in the living room was that the area rug was dirty. I think and hope the color is just a dirty gray, but it was a bit off-putting. Unpacking was challenging, as there is no dresser in the master bedroom.
The unit was quiet at night until at some point between 3:30 and 4:30
a.m. when very loud BEEP BEEP BEEPing noise was made. It’s the noise made when a truck is in reverse. It went on and on and happened almost every morning, sometimes closer to 3:30, others at 4 or 4:30. We never figured out what was going on at that hour, but it was very disturbing. It would be worth asking if the beeping happens all the time.
The washing machine was broken when we got there. We didn’t get a replacement until two weeks later, so had to use local laundromats. The new replacement unit worked fine, and the management company gave us a credit for the inconvenience.
There are good restaurants that are nearby, and the beach is wonderful. Pool wasn’t heated, so we never used it, as the weather was very chilly most of the time we were there.

Dear Mary,
First of all, thank you for staying at IWE 408. It was a pleasure having you and we appreciate you taking good care of the unit during your stay. While understandable in many cases, we were sorry to hear of the issues you encountered during your stay. I would like to take the opportunity to acknowledge and respond where possible.
Thank you for the comment on the lack of a dresser in the Master bedroom. We will be considering adding one later this year. Regarding the rug in the main room, we actually stayed at the unit the weekend of March 4th and identified that as a necessary change prior to seeing your review. Suffice it to say, we agree!
We are very sorry about the inconvenience of temporarily not having access to the laundry unit. Please know that ALBVR was on top of the replacement process and, unfortunately, it took longer than expected to replace the unit. A further delay was encountered when the initial replacement was identified to have been damaged.
Regarding the beeping sound, this one is obviously out of our control. Nonetheless, I can certainly understand how frustrating something like this can be. As mentioned, we stayed at the unit the weekend following your departure and did not have this issue so we, too, are stumped. Again, we can only apologize for the unfortunate inconvenience.
Finally, and coincidentally, our Board has recently decided to heat our pool during certain periods of the year outside of primary summer months. While given the cooler temperatures in February during your stay it may still not have been practical, hopefully this will provide opportunities for guests to enjoy the pool outside of May – September.
Once again, we thank you for staying with us at IWE 408. And in spite of the issues encountered, we truly hope you were able to enjoy your stay and all that Gulf Shores has to offer!
Sincerely,
The Douglass Family

Excellent Location
This condo had an excellent view and location. It was convenient for time on the beach as well as dining out. Everything was within walking distance or a short drive, which was a big plus. The condo itself was okay and worked well space-wise for two couples, but don’t expect much in the way of amenities. We reported a broken glass table top upon our arrival and an unpleasant smell in the kitchen. The communication with the managing company was slow and at times did not address my questions.
If you simply need a place to shower and sleep, this place is for you! If you are looking for a rental that is well-stocked and homey, then look elsewhere.
