Much needed break
The condo provided everything we needed and more. The location was great. The parking attended(Danny) was the best. Tge only problem was the upstairs guest let their children run at all hrs keeping my daughter awake.

Pretty nice
Was a small 3 bedroom condo. Overall clean but there was used qtips next to bed and sock under edge of recliner- need to clean round furniture. Beautiful view. Nice having closet of beach things that could be used. Couple of the security guys was rude but there was one very nice. Only get 2 parking passes for 3 bedroom condo.

Standard Island Shores
We stay at Island Shores almost every time we come because we love the location. The layout of this unit is basic, it can get pretty cramped when you have 6 adults and a couple of kids but if you spend most of your time on the beach or exploring the area it's not too bad. The only problem I had with this unit was air flow. Parts of the condo were icebox cold while others of us were sweating in our bedrooms and needing supplemental fans (no ceiling fans except in the kitchen/dining area!). The rest of it was fine, it was a good location and the unit had the basics of what we needed for a week. All in all, it was a pretty typical Island Shores experience, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Beautiful view and perfect for our family!
We were pleasantly surprised that the photos and description of this property were accurate. The condo exceeded our expectations! We enjoyed coffee on the balcony every morning with the beautiful view. And our kids loved being able to go back and forth between the beach and the pool easily.

Overall the property worked well for the 7 of us. There is no laundry in the unit. There is a laundry room on the first floor with coin laundry. It would have been so much better with kids to have laundry in the unit.

Gulf Shores - Memorial Day weekend
The location of the property and the view of the beach are wonderful. This property is dated and small and left the people in our group thinking the cost for three nights was too much!
