Our stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed here for about a week for vacation. It was cozy, the bed was very comfortable, the room stayed cool and it was well equipped with amenities. It was also very conveniently located as it was right across the road from the beach, the hangout, and some great food. We loved our stay and will stay again.

The Good:The kitchen ware was nice. Bed comfortable. The Bad:Coffee maker doesnt work properly. It only brews about 1/2 of the water. Blender leaks at bottom. The tub is peeling and rusted. So a shower mat is in place. The shower had a hair tie that was left in shower. The worse: On check out day, my truck was towed away because the garage says "only cars" and trucks should park in rear lot. However, it fails to say that towing is enforced should a truck park there. There are no cameras in the building, only out in parking garage. Which only indicates they are not concerned with the safety of their customers that pay to stay but rather only to make money from those who drive a truck. It is merely to make money. There are signs that indicate your vehicle will be towed if no permit is shown because it is private prolerty. There were SUV's and Jeeps parked in garage for the 4 nights we stayed. They are not cars, because a car is a sedan not a Sports Utility Vehicle. Yet, never towed. My truck is a mid size truck that clears the height requirement. I have stayed there numerous times and loved the location but will never stay again.

BEWARE

Sunday morning before checkout, our truck was towed along with 5 other vehicles around 5am. After parking under the condo all weekend with a parking pass, as we thought we were supposed to. The only signage/warning that exists is a “NO TRUCK PARKING” as you enter the parking garage. As any normal person would think, we thought that meant semi trailers and/or box trucks. We cleared the clearance bar, had our parking pass, we thought we were good. Along with our vehicle, there were 4 other trucks and a large SUV towed out of the garage. No warning, no phone call, no violation sticker, no door knock. A ride from a Good Samaritan from Gulf Shores to Foley (because there were no Ubers/Lyfts available, and 280 later, we were able to leave and come back home. This is a racket set up between the HOA and the towing company. Nothing different. We won’t spend our money here again.

The price and the location is right. The bed is a full size bed, that’s very uncomfortable in our opinion. Other than that we had a very good experience staying here.

Perfect for a girls- 4 day weekend trip. Kitchen had only microwave and toaster oven to cook with. No door to the bathroom, only a curtain. No way to get linens for the futon or extra towels, toilet paper or trash bags. Great location for Gulf Shores. Across the road from the beach, walking distance to a lot of places if you did not drive or rent a car. Host replied quickly and was helpful.

Great location, close to The Hangout and beach. Double bed was not the most comfortable. Good value for the price and the location is tough to beat.
