Been staying at Sugar Beach for 20 years. The pool deck needs updated for covering other than wood(many splinters). Unit had everything we needed and location is great. Beach is awesome. Property rental from rental/check in/check out to addressing concerns was one of the best. I will recommend to others wanting a great experience. Floors had to be scrubbed, bedrooms/kitchen/bathrooms were clean. Beach amenities were great addition. Overall pleased renting through Vrbo past 20 years adding higher costs than what’s available through others that offer more.

Great location and clean, safe property!

We love Sugar Beach condos and this one was great! Our favorite part of the condo was the size and layout. Worked great for our party of 7. They also have a snack shack by the pools that you can have lunch, snacks and drinks from which makes the days easier and keeps you from having to leave for food, etc. We loved every bit of our trip!

A Sweet Escape at Sugar Beach!

We stayed in property 321 at Sugar Beach this past week. I had read the reviews and was a bit worried about cleanliness, but upon arrival, my fears were quickly put to rest. We had plenty of space for all seven of us and the beach was amazing. My only complaint about this property is that the king sized bed in the master bedroom Is uncomfortable. The beds upstairs were great. All in all, we would definitely stay here again.

Great accommodations

Enjoyed having 3 pools to chose from! Not a long walk to the beach! We were not happy that our three sets of chairs could NOT be close together, no fault of the condos, ceiling fans needs cleaning and garbage disposal did not work and never got a return service phone call! But we did still enjoy our trip!!

Cats

Condo was nice and as expected. What wasn’t expected was the amount of stray cats on the property, they actually drink from the pools. The cats are openly fed on plates in the parking area and nap under the chairs by the pool. Security guys chat up the guests while they set out the food.

Beach Family Vacay

The property was exactly as pictured. It had adequate space and seating. The beds were all hard as rocks and very stiff. I highly suggest getting a memory foam topper for each bed!!! Still having back pains from them. The water stayed hot for all 10 showers each night. So that was a huge plus. It rained most of our trip and had double red flags so not many beach days for us. But there was tons of toys and beach supplies for us to use. But there was plenty of board games and puzzles for us to keep entertained. Overall it was a great stay and I highly recommend this condo. I feel I got exactly what I paid for.

Great stay!

We enjoyed our time here! The location is excellent, away from the mega business of the Hangout area but still close to those shops/restaurants plus the more quiet grocery stores in Orange Beach. The host was communicative & respectful when she reached out, the parking process was easy (note that it is $35/car to park!), the 3 pools were never too crowded although we never used them. We had some pretty rough storms while we were there but the structure of the building was super solid, we felt very safe. The setup of the bedrooms was awesome. The primary bedroom had it’s own bathroom, the upstairs was a “Jack & Jill” situation but each room still had their own private sink & vanity. The cleanliness could have been better. Our feet got black pretty quickly upon arriving and there was plenty of sand on the furniture/ground/counters. Speaking of furniture, careful on the rocking armchairs! If you lean back a touch too far it may topple! Happened to us twice. Overall we had a great experience here and would recommend it!

Nice Condo, horrible bed

We loved the space of the condo. The king size bed was horrible! Literally me and my husband had so much back pain it nearly ruined our trip. I was also concerned because all of the downstairs fire alarms were either missing or disconnected- I contacted them about this but never received an explanation. For our group of 9 people the condo was a wonderful size and a great number of beds. If they replace that king size bed I would stay here over and over every single year. Besides the bed I really have no complaints. Loved having all the pool options. We had 3 grandparents, 2 parents, 1 teen, 2 preteens and a 6 year old. The space was amazing. I would automatically re rent for our vacation next year if it wasn’t for the bed. And I am not normally a complainer I saw the reviews that mentioned the bed and was thinking oh those people are just complainers or baby’s but no it’s really that bad.

Dirty but fun

When we arrived, we noticed our feet were turning black from the floors. We were forced to wear shoes the entire time because the floor was so disgusting. Each dish we used, we had to wash ourselves before using because they were all dirty. There was a dirty wet rag left in one of the showers. The window upstairs was left open. There were spider webs and cobwebs everywhere. My niece came in the living room crying with a bloody foot because she stepped on a piece of glass in the bedroom (this was when we just arrived, so we know it was nothing from us) when we went to look, there wear actually several pieces of broken glass in the bedroom. We contacted the listing company and they refunded us for our cleaning fee and offered to have someone come in and clean again. We were happy about this solution. Other than the filth, we enjoyed our stay.

Perfect for beach vacay

Our condo was as promised, plenty of room for our family of 6. There was a beautiful view of the ocean from our balcony. The room was stocked with dishes, coffee makers, broom, games, etc. There were some beach toys, floaties, and chairs available to borrow also, Beds and furniture were comfy. The room WiFi worked well. Televisions were in good shape. Water pressure and temps in unit were nice too. The beach was a quick elevator ride away. We spent hours there everyday! The pools were clean and never too crowded. We enjoyed them. Other condo amenities included a pickleball court, a deck with rocking chairs for ocean viewing, a snack bar, and cornhole games. We enjoyed meeting other condo guests from various states. The condo complex is more aged/rundown than expected and it took me off guard a bit at the beginning. I just didn’t have the right expectations. I think it’s one of the older ones on the beach. I also wish more toiletries came complimentary with the room. No trash bags were provided past the first liner. That being said, our stay was still very wonderful and the room was beautiful. I would recommend to somebody coming to Orange Beach to enjoy beach and outside time in a specific price range.

Short walk from condos to the beach made for easy hauls with ice chest/toys/chairs. Pools were always clean and the Sugar Shack is a great spot.

Mother's day get away

We always have an amazing time staying at orange beach, The location is great. Great for a vacation for a family with a small child. The only problem we had was the room 321 it wasn't clean when we got there. It's like they didn't sweep nor mop the floors in a long time. Our feet were black within minutes. And the rugs weren't clean either. & the down stairs bathroom next to the kitchen had dried puke on the door & baseboards. We also wished that the sugar shack would've been opened longer. But other than all of that we had a great vacation.
