End of School Year Getaway

We had a wonderful time at this condo. The location was perfect. We were close enough to Gulf Shores if we wanted to go there but enjoyed the less crowded resort and beach. The condo is in a great location inside The Plantation. A short walk to the beach and a great view of a pool right outside the balcony. Wonderful stay and we will return.

Great vacation

We truly enjoyed our stay at the Plantation. Food at Sassy Bass was fantastic, The beach was beautiful we had numerous pools on site to choose from. Only complaint we had was a group of rowdy children that weren’t disciplined by their parents and not following the pool rules. More security needed for the pool area, Thankfully we had many to choose from. If staying you will be paying for laundry services in a common area. Overall great trip.

Enjoyed it!

The condo was so cute, exactly as pictured. It was a little smaller than I realized in the kitchen area but that was okay. Close enough to the beach with a nice view. Kids liked the indoor pool. A little further from town and restaurants but not a big deal. Only thing we didn’t like was how noisy it could be with people in the hallway and the people above us. Besides that we had a great time. Would definitely recommend.

Family Vacation on the Beach

We had an amazing stay in unit 1240. There were three adults, and four kids (2 preteens). There was plenty of room for all us. It can easily sleep 8. The condo was clean and well equipped with what we needed. Just take you a large skillet if needed. We improvised with what we had. We were steps away from the boardwalk to the beach and one of the many pools was right outside our balcony. We will definitely put this location on our list to revisit.
