Would stay here again!

This property was perfect for a getaway with my husband. We had all we needed in the condo, and everything else we might have needed was clearly outlined in info provided by property owner. There were zero hiccups in our stay. Property was very conveniently located to the beach — within a small walking distance. We loved the covered parking spots, and we felt very safe during our stay.

Gulf Shores Unit 500

We had a fantastic visit! With the easy access to the beach and the beautiful weather, the family enjoyed the lazy days of summer swimming in the gulf, looking for seashells, and taking sunset strolls along the shore. Thanks again for the beautiful accommodations and the cleanliness of the complex.

Nice Beachfront Property!

This property was just a few feet away from the beach. It was just big enough for our family to stay had all the necessities for us to feel like home - washer and dryer, refrigerator and dishes-pans-silverware. It was not far from the main strip in Gulf Shores. The beach was quiet and not a lot of people passed through. We enjoyed this trip and this property will stay again!!

Super close to the beach

This condo was super close to the beach and had very easy access to the water. The condo itself was clean and comfortable for myself and my kids. We were concerned about bad weather the day we were checking in and were able to easily communicate with the owner and the property manager. The in unit washer and dryer was super nice and convenient. The only minor inconvenience we had was the single tv remote in the living room controlled all the tvs throughout the unit— like I said, it was just a minor inconvenience.

Perfect stay

I’ve stayed here (room 500) three times and it’s my favorite place I’ve stayed yet. Its clean, decorated cute and I even like the check in method where I dont have to drive to pick up, drop off or lose keys in the sand. Its such a short walk to the ocean esp when packing lots of stuff lol and you can open the door and see the ocean too. We come to Gulf Shores a few times a year and I hope to book here each time in the future.

Perfect!

The condo was perfect for a much needed vacation from winter in Vermont. The beach is just outside the door and the white sand beat the white stuff we left at home! The weather was not perfect for the beach every day but we enjoyed it on the days we could. The area has plenty of eateries and entertainment. We much enjoyed the Florabama vibe, just a short drive away. The host was very responsive and accommodating in all respects. The place is cozy and comfortable. We’d return again without hesitation and it was hard to leave!

Great price and great place to stay ON THE BEACH

Checking in was super easy! The apartment was clean and instantly felt like home. Being right on the beach was amazing. And with little ones, that’s a huge plus. No hassle with parking or carrying stuff to and from the beach. Because we were on the beach! I can’t say enough good things! We absolutely loved our stay here and WILL BE coming back and bringing more family! The ONLY thing I would suggest for any family with littles. Bring plastic or paper plates and bowls. I was so worried our little guys(5 &3 yrs) would break a plate or bowl. But we improvised. Oh and bring suction cup hooks to put in the shower so that you can hang your wet swimsuits in the shower to dry!!! Seriously though. We loved our stay. It was perfect. And felt like we were dealing with family. LOVE LOVE LOVE!
