Perfect location to relax and get to know Gulf Shores, Al.!

We had a wonderful time during our stay at this lovely condo. The location is so handy and the views priceless!! Wanted a vacation to get away and “unplug” and couldn’t have been happier. We really had no issues for which we had to contact Terry. His communications were thorough, easy to follow and very timely! Our son and family came for visit and the two bedrooms worked out very well! Thank you for allowing us time in your lovely condo. Jim & Terri Glenn

Property was very much as advertised, perhaps even better. Views of the gulf were incredible, access to beach and pool a breeze. Unit conveniently close to elevator and well furnished. Master Bed was super comfortable and has two great windows to look at the gulf while laying in the bed. We will definitely be back in this unit in the future!
