AMAZING!!!

The property was everything they said and MORE!! Very clean, smelled amazing, beds were so comfortable, the living room was very cozy and the balcony was bigger than we thought it would be. Perfect location! We parked our vehicle for 80% of our 7 day stay and walked since the location was right in the heart of everything. The views from the balcony were way better than the pictures (and that was hard to beat). The communication with the hosts was great! The ice maker was running a little slower than we anticipated (no fault of the hosts) so we messaged and we received an immediate response. Check in and check out was very simple, I will suggest getting online to get the parking pass in advance so you can get right in and out. Overall 1000 out of 10!!!

Wonderful Beach Stay

This condo was perfect for my husband and I for a nearly week long stay. It is just as lovely as it looks in the photos. It was very clean, well equipped, had great towels, linens and a comfy bed, and a wonderful balcony where we had morning coffee and listened to the waves at night. It’s a short walk to The Hangout for music and food, and there are a couple of other places to grab food and drinks nearby too. The beach is beautiful! The owners were wonderful to work with, and even gave us a fun suggestion for something to do on one of our days.We hope to be back very soon!

Great view, great location

Nicely updated unit in an older building. The view is fantastic, great location not being sandwiched between massive condos so the beach wasn't too crowded. Parking was easy and you could zip in and out easily. Close to the center of gulf shores. The only gripe and this is not the fault of the owners, was seating on the beach. Don't bother renting umbrella and chairs, people will just come sit right in front of you while Ike's just takes your money. Also you don't get a refund or prorated or anything even if it's 30mph winds and double red flags. Very frustrating but won't let that happen again. Ike's 0/5 stars, our room and property 5/5

Beautiful gulf front condo

We’re from East Coast of FL. Came into town for family reunion. Other family had different units. Gulf Shores was good location for all to meet. The reservation process, check in, cleanliness, recommendation for food, etc.. were all easy and appreciated. No problems, only beautiful weather, nice beach, and comfortable condo. Thank you.

Breath takingly beautiful

From the moment we opened the front door we were greeted with the most beautiful view of the Gulf. We spent hours out on the balcony watching sun rises and sunsets with dolphins in between. Fabulous place to stay, and we plan on coming back this summer.
