We booked a last minute trip to the beach and this unit was the perfect location. It was clean, check in and out was super easy, the kitchen was well stocked and clean and it had great access to the beach and pools. We would definitely stay here again.

Our family enjoyed this property, plenty of room for us. Condo was clean with many amenities. 13th floor gave beautiful views of the Gulf. Check in and check out process very simple. Indoor/outdoor pool is small. Condo is beachfront, umbrella service easily obtained. TVs in each bedroom and living room, but remotes did not operate TVs. Would definitely stay again!

What a fantastic place. The view when you walked in the door made you think you were walking into the gulf. Beautiful condo, clean and quiet. Highly recommend the rental agency too. Very easy.

This property is well maintained, clean, and is exactly as described. It is beachfront and has a huge balcony overlooking the gulf. There is also a nice view and second sliding glass door in the master bedroom. The check-in process was easy, and directions were sent a week in advance, as stated. Check out was also easy - just basic instructions that any good guest should do, like put dishes away and take out the garbage. The property is quiet and in a good location. And we were happy to have a reserved covered parking spot. Highly recommend this specific condo. We’d love to return!

Very clean upon arrival. We were surprised multiple times by people (for legitimate reasons) being in the unit or entering the unit without us knowing so communication could have been better. While there were a small number of areas due for minor upkeep the unit was a great layout and well stocked with what we needed. Location is fantastic and beautiful .

The wraparound balcony provides a beautiful panoramic view of the shoreline and intercoastal waterway. The full kitchen and laundry room are excellent complements making this an excellent family getaway.

Had a great stay once again in GS. First time in this condo and complex. Only drawback was no fitness center in the common area while Coastal Shores West has one. Had no issues with unit and no communications with property manager. This area is great as there are several good restaurants within walking distance of less than 15 minutes. Would stay again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed a fabulous month at this condo. We loved being able to work out everyday right downstairs. We also loved relaxing in the hot tub. The location of the condo was perfect, being close to many restaurants and shops. The condo was clean, nicely decorated and the kitchen was well stocked. The views from this corner unit were fantastic and we loved being on the balcony which was very warm for January. The staff at ALBVR were very helpful and it was a breeze renting this unit.

4/10

We enjoyed our trip to the region, but left the property feeling like there were probably better options in Gulf Shores. The biggest issue was the furniture, which is dated, dirty, and broken. The upper horizontal on the love seat is broken, and the upholstery on all three living room pieces is soiled. We put towels on them when we sat down, which admittedly was not very often as we spent most of our time on the beach. We were also surprised with the lack of little things which would make a stay more worry free. There's no beach towels, and very little in the way of beach equipment. We were surprised by that given our stays at other beach properties which had an abundance of that gear. There's one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, period. Only 1 trash bag in the property (we used grocery bags once we had to empty the trash). No facial tissue, (which shortens the useful life of one of your two rolls of TP). In fairness they tell you that those items are not provided when they send the check in email, which we didn't catch until we had arrived. But not including essentially five bucks worth of toiletries on a week long rental worth just short of two grand? Seemed at best odd. In short, we enjoyed Gulf Shores, but should we visit again we will look for a different place to stay.
