Great beach and great location

Really enjoyed the distance from the condo to the beach. The crowd of the beach was also low, definitely 10/10. The beach service provided was spectacular. Could not have loved them more. The room was not as clean as I would have liked. I mentioned some issues to the rental company but there were more than initially addressed, and once checked in, it’s understandably out of their hands. I feel like it looks clean but wasn’t and maybe that’s enough for others. The rental company is communicative and they fixed an internet service issue relatively quickly but the cleaning service needs to do a better job: floors, tables, coffee pot, stove eyes, and bathrooms need to be throughly cleaned between each guest. Patio furniture could be updated as well as the main door knob and locking system. Some rugs would also help improve the feel of the space. The condo is in a fantastic location.

Great place

Overall really good! There were a few items: 1) curtain needed in master. The lights are really bright on the building and shine through the window. 2.) toilets both ran. Had to jiggle them to get them to shut off 3.) shower in master. Faucet is weird trying to turn off and on. 4.) no ladder on the bunk. Makes trying to climb into the top bunk almost impossible for younger kids. Had to put them on the couch. 5.) Food left over in the freezer from the previous guest. All minor issues. Easy fixes. Overall it was really good. The decor was nice. View was good. Wasn’t even bad being on the 13th floor.

View was great, everything else mediocre at best.

We are not picky and stay in 2-3 rental homes per year. We arrived to shower that had not been cleaned, with a live cockroach in it. Master toilet was broken. No extra blankets for sofa bed. Dishwasher didn’t clean dishes and had horrible smell. Washer and dryer make loud squeaking noise whenever used. The overall initial appearance was fine. We checked in on Sunday. I called immediately once I found the bug and broken toilet. I also sent an email with a picture of the roach. Called me back mid morning the next day- with little to no concern. Sent building manager out to fix the toilet. We went with other families staying in the same building. Their condos were much much nicer and well maintained. Best part about it was the view!! Nice to have an indoor pool with the unpredictable weather. Walking distance to shops and restaurants. Had a great time in Gulf Shores, but wouldn’t stay in this specific condo or with this rental company again.
