Great experience 10/10

My family and I had a wonderful stay and are more than pleased with this VRBO. When we walked into the living room all you could see is the beautiful skyline and water from the balcony. The place was very clean, had everything we needed and was perfect for our family size, 2 adults and 2 teenage girls. The host was very nice and made sure that we had all the information we needed prior to getting there and made sure to let us know she was available if needed. We did not have to contact her for anything during our stay. Everything was perfect! We drove 10.5 hours straight to get there, which can be a bit stressful, but when we got there is was well worth it, especially considering the ease of everything with this VRBO. We woke up early most mornings and seen the beautiful sunrise from the balcony and we even seen a dolphin the first morning! I would definitely stay here again 10/10.

Great location

Very clean. Perfect location. Great view. Walkable to the Hangout, multiple shops, restaurants. This area of the beach wasn’t empty, but also wasn’t nearly as busy as other parts. Nice walkway to the beautiful beach. We didn’t use the pool, but it looked nice as well. Check in and out was simple , owner was easy to communicate with. This was our first time in Gulf Shores, and we loved it!

Perfect Location!

First of all, Theresa was a wonderful host. When our trip started out rocky due to an accident, she was so prompt with responding to my message about potentially getting into the condo a few hours early. The condo is not huge, but offered the perfect amount of space for our family of five (which includes three teenagers). Tropical Isles offered a nice, small size where we didn’t have to wait long on the elevator or spend a ton of time going between the pool/beach/room. Having a bathroom within the pool area was a major plus! The walkway to the beach was nice and we just loved having a beautiful view of the Gulf and pool right from our balcony. Tropical Isles was just a short two block walk away from The Hangout and all of the shops and restaurants. This was our second trip to Gulf Shores and this will be the condo we will come back to again and again! Thanks so much, Theresa!
