Place was honestly fantastic, no major complaints! Only things I'd mention, which staircase to use, actual list of what's provided (we could've saved some space!), some cabinet space (they provide so many kitchen appliances that there was literally no room for food anywhere).Overall, I would stay there again! Location was great, price was unbeatable, and overall well kept.

Vacation

This was are first trip to gulf shores Alabama. We got to the place pulled in are spot and went right up. We enjoyed the place. It was so clean and the owners where so sweet leaving things we can use. We only stayed four days. My friend and I said we would come back and stay at this place again. Very clean and just the size we needed. I'm already planning the next trip.

Great Place to Stay - Very comfortable & Close to beach

This was perfect for two people with extremely cute beach-style decorations. We found everything we needed including a small styrofoam cooler, dishes, serving plates, tea bags, pitcher and sugar. Everything was clean. The beds were very comfortable. The property owner was responsive. The beach had beautiful white sand, with access only several blocks walk and the walk was safe and pleasant with a stoplight at the crossing. We highly recommend.

Perfect for a couple of moms down for a tournament

Everything was perfect for our needs! We were in town for a volleyball tournament and the first night it was just the moms and the girls joined us the second night. We had plenty of room and no one felt cramped. Even with the Shrimp Fest going on the condo was easy to get to and in a perfect location. We will try to book again the next time we are down for the weekend. The host was easy to communicate with as well.

Quick beach trip

The location was very easily accessible with covered parking. The condo was clean and comfortable and the neighbors were quiet. It's about a block to the beach access which was easy, and a grocery/convenience store within walking distance. They have a coffee pot and one using pods. They also provided coffee for two days. The coffee filters in the cabinet along with the basic spices. We had everything we needed.

No pool facility open for rental.

The condo is very well situated, compact, particularly well equipped & with good wifi; however, -Problem with hot water in upstairs bathroom, never hot. -Well worn chair, sofa &rugs MAJOR PROBLEM..pool area closed for my entire month's rental. Owners, blaming workers and skimmer supply, offered a minimum refund $70 based on their estimation of what my use of the pool might be according to weather ! Despite emails that VRBO have passed onto owners I have not received the (minimal) refund. I provided my email to facilitate an "interac E transfer". Owners have the ultimate responsibilty to either provide services as advertised, offer a corresponding compensation or inform client..I would not have continued with this rental had I known there would be no pool open for my month's rental. Also, advertised a dog free, no pets...neighbours had 2 barking dogs. Fyi. It is now 3 weeks after the rental ended. -

Ideal for Hangout Fest!

I absolutely loved my stay here and wouldn’t think of staying anywhere else when I come back to Gulf Shores, whether I’m there for the music festival or not. I think the best parts about this place are its tasteful decoration and its proximity not only to public beach access but also to Pier 33, a grocery store right next door. You don’t have to go far for ANYTHING here!
