"The condo provided was fantastic! It was clean and in great condition, almost everything worked very well (one of the TV remotes didn't work, but it was a non-issue since we didn't care to watch TV there), and the view of the beach was amazing! It's in a very pedestrian friendly area, too. The staff were also very polite and professional. We were able to receive and return our key without any issues. I can definitely picture coming back here again next year!"

Best Western On The Beach

"All I can say is perfect spot all the way around. Clean, decor was great, and what a view of the sunrise from the master bed and balcony. Couldn’t have asked for a better spot for our first trip to Gulf Shores. Checkin and out was a breeze. The amenities were great, especially having the ice machine on site. The host was very communicative and we were able to stay an additional night with zero headache. I will be sure to book this same condo in the future."

"Perfect Location. Short walk to beach, able to walk to the Hangout and surf shops! The Duplex was very cute and space was good! Just one bathroom in each duplex. So you may want to think about shower and bathroom times. But we had a great stay! We did call for maintenance on carport light and fridge light. Was fixed quickly and set of sheets brought in timely manor for pull out sofa!! Thank Beach Ball for having us! Till next time"
