Driftwood Towers 5H

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Just west of the Gulf Place public beach entertainment area in Gulf Shores, Driftwood Towers is a serene and relaxing yet fun and welcoming condominium complex.

A sparkling outdoor swimming pool faces the Gulf of Mexico with its sea oat-covered dunes and expansive beachfront area that provides ample space for vacationing families to build sandcastles, splash in the Gulf, stroll underneath the starry sky and simply enjoy spending time together.

You'll find everything you need to prepare and enjoy meals in your condo's fully equipped kitchen and dining area, but if you enjoy cooking and dining outdoors, a grilling area is located on site.

Each individual condo features its own private balcony giving you the option to extend your living space outdoors, watch the sun rise and set each day, and relax to the sounds of the surf, seagulls and happy families playing below.

Driftwood Towers is centrally located in Gulf Shores, meaning you are within close proximity to popular attractions like the newly revitalized, beautiful main public beach area, Waterville USA, hiking and biking trails, Gulf State Park, dining options ranging from fast food to upscale coastal cuisine and everything in between, and tiny mom-and-pop boutiques as well as large stores filled with everything you'll ever need for your vacation.

Also nearby is the Popular Hangout restaurant, which draws families all hours of the day and night to play games, dine on tasty seafood, listen to live music and take full advantage of the beach life.

Book your next vacation at Driftwood Towers. You'll be near all the fun and still be able to retreat from your busy lifestyle.

Taking trash down the elevator and across hot parking lot to dumpster was inconvenient and unpleasant. Door lock froze and could not access from outside. Once new code given and used, the door would no longer lock when leaving room.

Great location, terrible service

The place and location were as promoted, but the after-stay service has been awful. My daughter left some shorts there and I’ve been trying to find out if the cleaners found them, but all I keep getting back are automated messages saying it will cost me $25 for them to even ask the local staff (whether they have it or not). I understand paying for shipping and time if they have to mail something to me, but $25 just to see if they have it seems out of line.

Very old furnishings

The king bed in 5H was good. The couch in the living room was very worn as was the carpet and the foot stool was broken. The vent fans in both bathrooms were excessively noisy.
