Wonderful relaxing stay. Enjoyed our time. Peaceful place. Had everything we needed - only suggestion is having a pulley system like some neighbors do; since the stairs to unit are steep for carrying items. Loved the view from all the decks !!

Great place and value

Easy beach access, bay access and pool. Nice bonus to have access to beach chairs and wagon in storage locker. Perfect floor plan for family of 3 plus a friend. The living area was spacious and comfortable. The beds were comfortable, not too hard ir soft, just right. Far enough down the beach to be less crowded. Would definitely stay here again. I appreciated the simple clean decor and having just what we needed without it being cluttered.

Beach Trip

We enjoyed our time together at this amazing condo. Everything that you needed was provided including an extra fan in both bedrooms. The beds were so comfortable. My husband and grandson loved the fishing pier located behind the condo. The pool was nice and we enjoyed being away from the high traffic areas. We would certainly stay there again!

Perfect get away!

Clean, comfortable, and so close to the beach! The sunrises on the beach and sunsets st the fishing pier were beautiful! The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were nice, it was the perfect amount of space for our family of 5! If you book this place, Use the storage shed! They have an umbrella, beach toys, beach chairs, fishing pole, wetsuits, and a wagon to carry it all! There are many stairs though, so if you have bad knees or asthma, this may be an inconvenience, but my 70 year old mother wasn’t troubled and neither were the rest of us, so the average person should he fine.

Great location and clean

First time visiting Gulf Shores. Condo was far enough away from all the high rises so didn’t have very crowded beaches and it was still a short drive to everything. Condo was very clean. Kitchen window overlooked the pool so able to check to see how busy pool was. Beautiful views from front decks. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. Also, tons of amazing and nice beach supplies in closet.

Amazing Get-Away!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This host has thought of everything. The rental was completely stocked with everything we needed to have a fun time at the beach. The kids were excited to use the complimentary supplies to build sand castles and ride the waves with the included boogie boards. The building was clean and tidy which made for some needed relaxation.
