Great Stay in Ft. Morgan
Beautiful condo 3/3. Pretty beach theme decor. This area is so pretty and quiet. Such a bonus to be on the ground floor. Easy to walk out and have the pool, beach, tennis courts right out front. We loved having the grills outside too, we used them several nights in a row. It's off the beaten path but well worth it. Stock up on your groceries on the way in. Spent a day crossing the ferry to Dauphin Island. If you go there pack a lunch not too many places to eat. You must have dinner at Jesse's on the bay!! The food was excellent!! Not a place for kids. But a great adult dinner out. I highly recommend this beautiful condo.

Family Friendly
The codo was spacious and heavily beach decorated. The kitchen was fully furnished with everything we needed. There was even spices, aluminium foil, and ziplocks which i am assuming were left from past guest. Unfortunately, the weather was terrible while we were there and only got to spend one day on the beach. However, the beach was a super short distance away and came with 2 beach chair rentals. The beach was clean and not crowded (this could have also been because it was cloudy). The pool, which can been seen from the back door, was easily accessible and never seemed to be crowded. Due to the weather we spent some time visiting the hot tub located inside; however, i would not classify it as "hot" and the indoor pools are not heated. Overall we had a good time and would stay here again.

Alabama vacation
Property was perfect. There was enough to do in the room, at rainy times, and outside to do to keep everybody busy and having a great time. The beach is quite and amazing. The room itself was big enough, very well equipped and the added extras in the kitchen and in the room such as games and such were an awesome extra bonus!!! The beds were very comfortable as well as the furniture. Showers were great. We were in and out so often the ground unit was perfect for us along with the nice big sitting area right out the door. The only reason for a 4 star for cleanliness is when we arrived the kitchen cabinets were dirty. There seemed to be splattered marks of various things such as what looked like coffee spilling down some and food on most of them. We quickly washed them all down before unpacking and there were plenty of extra cleaning supplies to do it so it wasnt a huge deal. The rest of everything did look very clean😊 Thank you for sharing your place with us. If we are ever back to that area again we will definitely check to see if this unit is open for us.

Great Location!
We love Fort Morgan. It wasn't as crowded as Gulf Shores. This unit slept all 10 of us and had a large living space to gather together at night. The unit was well stocked with anything you might need for cooking. It is a first-floor unit so packing and unpacking was easy. It is just a short walk to the beach. We definitely hope to book again next year.

Summer heatwave
Overall this was a good trip. However, here are a few things to note.
There are a few differences from the photos and how the condo was currently. The furniture was in different positions and needs to be replaced (flat cushions and dirty/sunscreen coated). Everything did work with the exception of a few overhead lights (fans need to be replaced) and the ice maker (fridge was cold and freezer worked). The photos do make it look a little nicer than it was but overall it was a positive experience.
The property as a whole:
We were there on an incredibly hot week and that isn’t under anyone’s control. The pool decks were maintained but the water wasn’t the least bit refreshing. No cold water was being put into the pool and the jets were operating poorly or not at all. Outside of that issue overall we had a very good experience at the plantation.
I hope you take this as an honest review and enjoy your stay also!

Great getaway!
We've stayed in different units at the property for decades, but this unit was, by far, the best. Very spacious (plenty of room for the 8 of us to spread out). Steps away from the pool, tennis court, Sassy Bass, and beach. The only "negative" really isnt even a big deal...I wish the patio table had an umbrella as there is no escape from the afternoon sun. Will most definitely check this unit for availability on our next visit.

Great Stay at Fort Morgan
Beautiful, clean place! Loved the tennis/pickleball court and beach so close. Could not have asked for a better place to stay. Fit our whole family, roomy kitchen. Condo was very clean!! Just know that there are 2 doors, and you need to enter the one facing the tennis court. We arrived at midnight not realizing this, and could not get in (the back door). Jackie answered the phone right away, problem solved. Thank you Jackie! Great place for family vacation. Quiet! Never heard anything from the other rooms. Thank you again!

Beautiful Condo
Unit was very nicely taken care of. Clean and well kept. We choose the unit because of its size. The location on the first floor does not provide much of a gulf view and it does not provide any privacy as it is right along the walk way to the beach and within feet of the tennis courts. There is nowhere outside to sit and enjoy the view - the patio area is not at all private from all of the activities and people going about. The location (which also made it convenient to everything) of the actual unit would be my only complaint, the size, layout, and condition of the unit is excellent.

Fall Break
This was our first time staying in a first floor condo. The experience was very convenient and felt like the pool, tennis court, beach, and restaurant were in the “backyard”. The mattresses weren’t the most comfortable and could use an upgrade, but everything else was great. With that said, we would definitely stay there again.

Very spacious and convenient location!
My wife and I have vacationed at this resort many times over the last decade. Our family has grown over the years and this year we had 3 children under 8 and 2 teenage sitters join us. Because we had more people than ever before, we were looking for a large rental. This condo exceeded my expectations on space. The 3 bed/3 bath with open living room/kitchen area was perfect. I wasn’t exactly wanting a ground floor unit but finding a condo to sleep this many limited our options. Coke to find out, I was very thankful for the ground level unit. Moving luggage in/out, going to the pool or beach, running errands, etc was extremely convenient. I’ve had poor experiences with the dunes building in the past, with respect to the above ground units due to the elevator wait time but pleased this unit completely avoided it. The unit was equipped with everything to start your vacation and very clean upon arrival. The property manager (Jackie) was very kind, responsive, and helpful throughout the process. I will definitely be returning to this unit in the future and recommend it for anyone with a larger party or those wanting more space/convenience at this resort!

Our first family vacation with grandkids
This was our first family vacation with our son, daughter in law, two grandkids, ages 2 and 5 months and our inlaws. It turned out fantastic. Jackie was so amazing to work with, always answered my texts quickly. This condo was on the ground level which was wonderful with have 2 small kiddos. We were close to the pools and boardwalk to get to the beach. We enjoyed using 3 out of the 6 pools. We ran out of time to check all of them out. The condo was clean and well stocked with a great supply of kitchen items, such as crockpots, dishes, glasses, pans... It was great having an ice maker, washer and dryer. We felt safe. Everyone was friendly. We had dinner at Sassy Bass which was great because we could just walk to it. The pineapple boat was delish!! We will definitely come back.
