We had a wonderful stay during our spring break trip! The property was very clean and well-maintained, and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, which made cooking easy and convenient.The property management and security were both excellent—very responsive, friendly, and helpful throughout our stay. We also loved the location. It was easy to walk to everything we needed, including shops, restaurants, and attractions.Overall, a great experience, and we would definitely stay here again!

Place was clean. Was exactly as described. Right on the beach; just steps away. Super close to stores & restaurants (walking distance). A 5 min walk to The Hangout. If I HAD to find something to "complain" about it would be the beach umbrella....heavy & difficult to keep it standing... that's about it in the complaint department. Would definitely re-book next trip to Gulf Shores.

What a lovely condo. Loved having such a great view of the ocean and easy access to the beach. Pictures make it look larger than it is. The second bedroom and bath are small and no window with a view. Just the outside hall so couldn’t even open it for fresh air. The beds were very comfortable but hardly any room to move around. Would be fine for kids but as seniors with mobility challenges it was not easy. Also closet was tiny. The Master bedroom and bath was lovely, could even watch the water from the bed. Nice kitchen, well supplied.

The amenities were top notch. The unit was spotless upon arrival. My husband who ran his own maintenance and janitorial business for 40 years, has never given that compliment to any unit where we have stayed in the past. The kitchen was fully stocked with every utensil one might need and plenty of dishes, flatware, etc. and all in great condition. That is something that many places are lacking. The check in and out was very easy and when we decided to stay longer since it was available, I was able to do this all by text message and the door code updated for us to stay longer. There wasn't a long checklist of things to do to leave, nor a huge list of dos/don'ts for our stay like some units. We were able to view the sunrise and sunset from our balcony where we also so dolphins most every day. Very short walk to the beach as well. We would definitely stay here again.

Great beach views

Overall enjoyed our stay-we did have a dishwasher that did not work and 2 of the 4 beach chairs were broken when we arrived..but service was very responsive and brought us 2 new beach chairs the same day. Elevator service was out for 1 day of our stay and the wifi had all been recently updated with new passwords that we had to talk to someone in the office to sort out. Condo is smaller than photos appear but the space worked for our needs-most of the time you are out at the beach! Would have been nice to have even a salt and pepper shaker but there were no basic kitchen supplies other than keurig coffee cups. Building is on the old side but the condo itself is very tastefully decorated and updated. Parking is very easy but costs 50. Great location and you can't beat watching the waves from the 4th floor balcony!

Quick spring break trip!

It was good location. We had one good day at the beach then we had to go to indoor waterpark and find indoor things due to weather. We didn’t spend much time in the condo but great location and easy parking. They did have a big box with new dishwasher in the unit the guy offer to move it before installing the next day we told him not to worry we aren’t using kitchen anyways except refrigerator and microwave. We do recommend the drive to eat at Jessie’s on the Bay. It was excellent. Great views and the chairs were fairly priced.

Amazing place to stay!!

Our family of 4 stayed here for a quick trip. This condo has great updates and comfortably accommodated our family. Beds in both rooms are very comfortable and we slept great every night. Condo was clean and came equipped with everything we needed…even a super cute coffee bar!! View of the beach is amazing!! We were able to see dolphins in the mornings during our stay. Owner texted regularly to check and make sure we were enjoying our stay. Can easily walk to souvenir shops and great restaurants. I HIGHLY recommend staying here. We will definitely be back!!

Stay Here and Be Happy

Second time we have booked this location and see no reason to stay anywhere else. We suggest parking around back if you have a balcony on the Gulf so you can see your car. Stayed about a week and had wonderful weather so we could take full advantage of the balcony. Rooms were very clean but the floors needed a good steam mop. I think the cleaning crew uses a swiffer or something, my feet were black and I didn't leave the condo most days. Beds were very comfortable. Master might need replaced or turned. But it still was very comfortable and this isn't a complaint at all. I loved the master, it has a huge window with shutters that I could open as early as I wanted and lay in the bed and watch the waves, birds and a couple dolphins. Every single day but one, we watched dolphins from our balcony. The last day we saw them, which was my birthday, there were 8 in a group that were passing by, splashing and one jumped out of the water! So awesome! Beach is soft, white sand and great to plop down and enjoy it all. Water was crystal clear. Kitchen is fully stocked and we needed nothing at all. They gave you one kitchen washcloth and one towel..uh, for a week. Bath linens were plentiful though. One dishwasher pack and one trashbag for the kitchen seemed a bit sparse. It does say just starters are provided. Very nice touches and very cute decor. Even had a brand new living room recliner brought in during our stay! Stay here, be happy

Beautiful Condo, Great Get Away Stay!

The Condo is Beautiful! It was very clean and stocked with anything that you would need or use at home. The owners stocked the kitchen, bathrooms and laundry room area. They supply everything that you need for the beach. There is an awesome Coffee bar, supplied with coffees of all kinds, sugar, etc. Really, just bring your clothes!, really….. they even supplied toothbrushs! The location is great, we walked to The Hangout and different restaurants and stores for shopping. My only disappointments were that the condo sleeps 8 , but they only supplies bath towels for 4. So, you will have to do laundry (at least towels) if you stay for longer than 2 nights. The other issue was that I sent an email asking for the cost of parking prior to booking, an email was returned with an awesome price, so we booked. However, the price that was were charged when checking in was much higher. The email price was not honored and we were told that the employee that sent the price in the email, just sent the wrong price….. like what?!? How was that our fault?!? Other than that, it was a wonderful trip!
