The condo was spacious and comfortable. The view was exceptional and we would recommend this to anyone. All the dishware was there and the freezer ice machine kept up with 2 of us. Plenty of storage space for food and clothes. The beach is unforgettable. Nothing like the Gulf Shores! The pool looked clean but we did not use it. Plenty of seating pool side. We went in the second week of March and while weather can be "iffy" this time of the year, we lucked out with exceptional temperatures. We were thankful for the elevators and the grocery carts they had on site to carry small items up and down. The parking was easy and plentiful during our stay in March. We are already thinking about going back!
