Gulf Shores - San Carlos
The location of this property is excellent. The parking fee is high but I've noticed many of the properties are tacking on this extra fee. If I had to park across the street in the "overflow" lot, I would have been especially irked.

Parrothead Meeting of the Minds (annual event)
Bedroom to the right when you came through the door, bed very squeaky. Bath tub dirty. I have pictures. Living Room sliding glass door handle on right side, hanging off....screws are stripped. The whole condo needs a deep clean; floors, woodwork, cabinet fronts. Cleanliness was disappointing.

Would definitely stay here again
Excellent location - easy walk to many places to eat and shop. Access to the beach is so easy with no stairs & great place to clean up to avoid dragging sand back up to the condo. The pool seems to have all new furniture and possibly newly painted - very nice (nicer than it looks in the pictures). The condo itself is a great layout - bathroom for every bedroom. The kitchen & family room are very open with great flow & plenty of space to spread out. The balcony on this fifth floor was my favorite - excellent view of beach & provided shelter from the wind/weather (sometimes cool in march). The kitchen was well stocked and numerous additional appliances tucked in the cabinets. There is also a wet bar - we set up a coffee station there for convenience. Also used the work out room - excellent for a condo (better than most hotels). Plenty of parking (be sure to get your $50 pass when you get there - i did read that so i was prepared). Overall excellent condo & property. I would definitely stay there again!

Ready to book again
I booked this place for my mom and a few of her friends for a long birthday weekend. Within five minutes of their arrival she was already asking me to book again for a few months out. They are in their late 60s, and had no issue with finding the location checking in or anything else. The only issue that she said they had was that they could not connect to the Wi-Fi code, but who needs Wi-Fi when you’re at the beach?! Thank you so much for opening your wonderful home and sharing it with us. We will be returning soon.

Too many repairs
No electricity to the outlets in one room for three night, which meant no tv in that bedroom. We were asked to check the breaker. Not our job. Also, not the problem. The repair person stated that at least the next occupant would have electricity and TV. Not what we wanted to hear. The toilet in that room also continued to run from Sunday until Thursday. We were asked to turn off the water. Again, not our job and we shouldn’t have to be without a bathroom.
The overhead light in the same room was missing it’s cover leaving a bare bulb the only light in that room until Thursday.
The lights over the bar were flickering and Ellie came and removed the bulbs on Monday and never returned. This made it difficult to play games with the kids.
The shower in the hall leaked and was repaired immediately because the dry wall was bubbling and they thought it may run down to the lower floor. All of my grandson’s items were soaked with water.
Waiting for repair people was a pain and should not be something we should have to do on vacation.
All of these items should have been checked before we arrived.

Nice overall
I enjoyed our stay at San Carlos 507. Some really nice features of the condo: three bedrooms, each with its own bath was a really great feature. The decor was very nice, the furniture comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and all of the appliances worked perfectly. A washer and dryer in the unit was especially nice. The complex itself was clean and well run, with a well maintained pool and deck and showers and spray hoses for cleaning up from the beach. Some have mentioned the beds were firm and while true to a degree, I thought they were very comfortable. Areas where some improvements could be made: the showers in the bathroom could use some updates - new shower doors in the master, for example. The furniture on the balcony could use replacement. Overall though, we really enjoyed our stay - 4.5/5

Great location
Filthy floors, beds are like sleeping on concrete floors. Towels are thin. Bedsheets don't fit. Pictures always look better than when you arrive and see it in person.
