Orange Beach October 2023
Our stay was fantastic. The room was very clean and so cute. It was just what we needed for a weekend getaway. We had a fantastic trip, and we look to come back soon! Thanks!

Not a barefoot walk to the beach!!!!!
The room itself was okay, but the balcony overlooked the parking garage and main road to come into the complex, so the traffic was very noisy all hours of the day and night. But what did it for me was the description of the unit titled "Barefoot walk to the beach." SO NOT TRUE!! Unless you want to walk from the second floor through a parking garage to get there also the place is very rundown and needs so many repairs, which isn't the condo owners fault but still very disappointing. So yes, the unit was clean and in a nice area, but I won't be going back to Sugar Beach ever again

The floor was filthy when we checked in! I could not find a mop to clean it so I used the bath towel and it was black afterwards. The pull out couch needs to be put in the dumpster, it was nothing but springs with a sheet on it. VERY UNUSABLE. A cracked mirror on the wall needs to be replaced. We will not stay here again!

Great place for a relaxing stay
My husband and I booked this for a short beach getaway to celebrate our anniversary. We found the property exactly as described by the owner. Bed was comfortable, everything was as pictured. We wanted to enjoy the local restaurants, so the small kitchen was not an issue. It was a quiet location - at least during this off-season. The ONLY suggestion I have for the owner is to make sure the cleaning crew is mopping the floor. It appeared clean on arrival. However, walking around barefoot, my soles got dirty. We had a great stay - cool temps, loved sitting and walking on the beach, quiet time on the balcony, TV at night. It was a lovely weekend!

Comfortable and cute!
My wife and I stayed over the weekend for our wedding Anniversary. I messed up when booking the room and booked it from Saturday until Monday when it should have been Friday- Sunday. Unfortunately it was booked up until Saturday but Mr Hand was so nice when I called to explain my mistake and offered several other options. We were able to have a wonderful Anniversary weekend and stay in a very clean,cool and convenient room. I will defiantly stay here again. Thank you Tom and we hope you had a wonderful hiking trip!

Great Beach Condo for your stay at Sugar Beach
Great condo at the Sugar Beach Condominiums complex. The condo itself was great, and the check in process was seamless. The only downside to the property itself was the lagging wait time for the elevator which ran slow and was the only elevator option.

Wonderful weekend stay with my daughter, room and property very clean! We loved the 3 pools and easy access to beach. Condo was in walking distance of several restaurants. Only complaint is property only has one elevator, and the room needs new mattress bed, and pullout couch. Overall this is great for family stays we will be back!!

Quick Beach Trip
We booked with Thomas at the last minute for a very short beach trip on Spring Break. The condo was small but very clean - had a new washer/dryer combo that worked great! Thomas was responsive and the condo was stocked appropriately. We enjoyed the beach and the pool. We will likely be back for a longer stay.

This is our second time to stay at this condo, the owner is quick to respond to questions and the condo is always super clean! The beach is short walk away, and everyone is super friendly. The restrooms on the bottom floor are super handy, and so is the snack bar! You’ll love this location

Perfect room for a quick beach weekend.
Unit is a small single room setup with a kitchen, bath, and balcony. I found it plenty comfortable for two guests during a weekend stay. Complex has multiple pools and a tennis court but the big selling point is that it is directly on the beach in a non-overly crowded area.

Not the experience we had hoped for
My family and I have stayed at Sugar Beach in the past and enjoyed it, but our experience this time was frustrating. Our check-in time was 4pm and we arrived at 6pm after a long day on the road. We had plans to drop off our luggage in the room and immediately leave to meet our family at The Wharf, but that didn't go as planned. After pulling out the couch bed to see if the mattress had much padding for me and my son, I found tons of pieces of chips, food, and sand on the mattress, and on the floor behind the mattress. There were chip crumbs in one of the chairs at the bar, food crumbs under the main bed and a piece of candy stuck to the wall behind the bed, greasy handprints all over the mirrors and countertop, crumbs on the kitchen countertop, grease on nearly all of the drawer handles, and the entire electrical box hang out of the wall behind the master bed. The room was apparently cleaned to the bare minimum, if at all. This was unacceptable, but especially after being charged a significant cleaning fee. I called Tom about waiving our cleaning fee since we didn't have a clean room, and he gave a quick "No", and told me that since it was late in the day, that I would need to wait for someone to come the next morning to take care of cleaning it. (By the next morning, we would have already cleaned it ourselves since we weren't sleeping in a bed with food under the sheets.) Tom ended up adding a lady to our phone call who gave 4 apologies to Tom's zero. She said she could have someone there that night to address all of our issues. We waited for an hour or more for someone to show up, and eventually just left because our family had been waiting on us. When we arrived back to the condo, the room had been cleaned for the most part. The following day, my family and I had laid down for an afternoon nap, and I heard some bumping around. I looked towards the doorway and saw outside light entering the room, then I heard our door close, a loud knock, and a man's voice saying, "housekeeping". I asked if I could help him and he asked if we needed any room service. The guy had just entered our room without knocking or anything, then went back out after realizing we were inside. Blew my mind...And finally, the sofa sleeper mattress is in need of replacement and not worth counting as a functional bed. It was extremely worn down and thin and uncomfortable, even for my small kids. Everything else at Sugar Beach was great. Parking, beach, food, etc.

Great vacation to the beach
The only issue we had with staying here was that they were doing construction on the property and would wake us up earlier than we what we wanted. They were painting the room next to ours and were loud and cussing early yesterday morning and we had paint fumes in our room. Other than these issues we really enjoyed our stay here! The beach was beautiful and the heated pool was very nice!
