End of School Year Getaway

We had a wonderful time at this condo. The location was perfect. We were close enough to Gulf Shores if we wanted to go there but enjoyed the less crowded resort and beach. The condo is in a great location inside The Plantation. A short walk to the beach and a great view of a pool right outside the balcony. Wonderful stay and we will return.
