Perfect Family Beach Condo

We absolutely love this condo for our family beach getaway! This was our 3rd year staying at Gina's Condo and it continues to be perfection. The condo is light, bright, and lovely. Views of the Gulf from the primary suite and living room decks are amazing. Beach access is incredibly close and easy - walk out of the condo, 1 minute walk, and you're toes deep into white sugar sand. The location is great with Pier 33 and the West Beach Coffee shop 5 minute walk away. Walking on the beach to the Hangout for dinner is both gorgeous and quick (20 minutes). Gina and her family keep the condo crisp and clean with a lot of great amenities. In 15 minutes or less, you can be racing go-karts at the Track, playing mini golf at Pirate's Island Adventure, or biking through the Gulf State Park. We love eating at the Sunliner Diner (milkshakes!), Lulu's, Picnic Beach, and the Hangout. This condo is truly a perfect place to enjoy the stunning Gulf Shores beach! We're already looking forward to our next stay!

Lovely unit on the beach

Lovely modern and remodeled unit right on the beach. The unit was clean and very comfortable for our family. It was perfect for spending time together, cooking and enjoying everything Gulf Shores has to offer. It is exactly as listed. Gina was so great to work with and communicated everything very well, making it easy and enjoyable.

Home away from home

This was my 4th year staying in Gina's townhome, and it was perfect as usual. Perfect location for restaurants and shopping, yet plenty of space on the beach. The unit is perfectly stocked, with comfy beds, and beautifully decorated. It's a quick walk out to the beach, with beautiful views from inside. The downstairs closet is fully stocked with everything you need for the beach - chairs, umbrellas, cooler, kids toys, shell nets, etc. I wouldn't dream of staying elsewhere.

Perfect Stay!

My family enjoyed our stay! Perfect location and easy beach access. The beach closet has chairs, umbrellas, boards, buckets, and toys available. I enjoyed all the updates. So many of the available rental properties have very dated decor and furnishings. I wanted to feel like I was on a vacation, and I did! Booking and communicating with Gina was a breeze!

Beautiful home and Perfect location!!!

My family had the absolute best vacation! We’ve been coming down to the Gulf of Mexico for years & this was our first time in Gulf Shores. While we loved the town, it was this house that really made the trip. The ease of being steps from the beach & within walking distance of tons of restaurants and shopping was amazing. Also, the beach was not crowded at all! Even on the Fourth of July we got a spot right by the water. The huge crowds were further down the beach. It felt like a private beach just for people staying in the townhomes. It was beautifully decorated and had everything we could need. The beds were super comfy and it was so nice waking up seeing the ocean right out the windows. This is hands down the BEST vacation home!

Perfect for families

We’ve stayed here a few times now and absolutely love it! Such a beautiful location, great beach access, and close to everything you need. Our family has really enjoyed staying here and Gina does such a wonderful job making us feel welcome. The condo is beautiful and has all sorts of stuff (beach chairs, toys, grill) to make it easy. Beach access is only a few hundred feet from the building, and the pool is a nice option when you’re tired of the beach. Plus, lots of sleeping options for our family make this a perfect setup. We would highly recommend this condo for any families wanting to get away for a beach trip and looking for awesome accommodations.

We have nothing but positive things to say about our stay. Gina is the best host. Everything you could need is there for you to use. All we needed were our bathing suits and toothbrushes. We loved the easy walk to the beach, parking, location, outside shower and the fully stocked beach closet that included toys, beach chairs and umbrellas.

Gulf Shores Family Gem

Wow! We would rent again! The complex is great for groups that want to gather but don’t want to share one home. Our unit was perfect. Everything we needed from fully stocked kitchen to beach chairs and toys. 3 other families rented in the same complex and unit 5 was absolutely the most well appointed and updated. Easy communication, zero issues to report about the unit. We had a wonderful stay! Don’t hesitate - book now!

Perfect Beach Condo

Perfect beach condo! The condo is directly on the incredibly beautiful Gulf Shores beach. The balconies give a fabulous view of the waves, dolphins, and beach! The condo is an absolutely wonderful place to stay as a family. It is so conveniently located with easy access to the beach, stores, restaurants, and fun activities. The new renovation of the primary suite affords a stunning view of Gulf from the bed. This condo is the perfect get-away in Gulf Shores. We keep returning because it's just that perfect!

Home away from home

This is our 3rd year to stay in Gina's unit for 2 weeks. Her home is well furnished, comfy, well stocked, and absolutely perfect for a beach vacation. The beach closet has everything you need - chairs, umbrellas, shovels, shell nets, kids toys - there is nothing you need to pack. The location is perfection - a few steps from the unit and you are on the sand, and the pool area is great as well. Communication with Gina is easy and prompt. I will continue to return!

Amazing! We couldn't have asked for a better house to stay for our week in Gulf Shores. The Beach, the pool, restaurants, and shops all in walking distance from the house. The little kids loved the bunk beds and the big kid was so happy to have his "own" room. We came for the week to play in a baseball tournament. Thank you Gina for letting us stay in your home!

Spring Break in Gulf Shores

My family of 6 had the best time staying at Gulfside Townhomes. The condo was everything I was hoping for and more. It was very clean, roomy, had comfortable furnishings, and everything you might need was provided. I’ve stayed in many VRBOs and normally you are provided with a starter set of soap, toilet paper, trash bags etc. All this was provided plus extras so we didn’t need to go out and buy anything additional. There is also a great beach closet with sand toys, beach chairs, a big cooler, and some other toys. Gina is a great host and answered any communications quickly. The beach is so close and the view from the balcony is beautiful. I loved how we were close enough to hear the waves crashing at night. The townhouse is also in a great location to be able to walk to restaurants and stores. Loved being able to walk down to the Hangout in the evenings. Such a fun place. Thanks for a wonderful stay. We will definitely stay here again when we make it back to Gulf Shores.
