The location is great
On the beach and close to all activity. The penthouse is good size and well appointed. The parking is very cramped. The bathrooms need updated.

Nice condo with great views to the gulf and great location. Ice maker was a real plus. Beds advertised as new, but not so. Parking is a challenge. Pool seating is insufficient for a 30 unit building.

Overall satisfied with this condo. For some reason the a/c would twice a day turn itself down to 75 with us there. We just had to keep an eye on the thermostat. Love the location. The couch needs to be replaced. Other than the minor things I listed, overall a great rental. I would definitely use this condo again.

Reviewer Comments:
Everything was great! A nice beachfront view and clean, up to date condo. Communication was very good. The only issue we had was the window in the master bedroom that faces the outside hallway. The light in that hallway shines with the power of a thousand suns, and the blinds on that window don't come close to keeping out the light when sleeping. We had to rig a thick blanket over the existing blinds to keep the light out. A blackout shade is definitely needed for that window. Overall, a minor inconvenience in a nice condo, and a great experience overall. We definitely recommend staying here.

Reviewer Comments:
Our first family beach trip with the grandkids and family was amazing. Location of the rental was perfect for us with 2 little ones. Having a beach side pool was a must and it worked to perfection. Easy walkover to the beach and setup was a breeze. Gulf Shores has this thing where the canopies must be back from beach is a pain but we survived. Water was clear every day, a few jellies but nice.Condo needs updating and repairs. Sofa was okay in spots and others unusable. Beds in jack and jill bedroom needs mattresses replaced, need replaced! Kitchen and ice maker were great. Large dining table was perfect. Plenty of pots and pans and ice maker was great. Master bathroom was a little whacked. Toilet needed jiggling after flush and not enough room for a larger human to use. Outside light shined through master and needs an option to turn off, had to cover window with towels to sleep.

Reviewer Comments:
The condo had a lot of space and good location but the cockroaches were a major problem for us. We filed complaints with management right away but it was 4 days later when they came to treat the building. There were also 4 light bulbs out throughout the condo and we requested replacement 3 times before they addressed the issue. Then, they only replaced 1 of the 4. It was otherwise a pleasant vacation. The parking attendant was a little extreme but otherwise we probably would not have had a place to park on the property. I would not stay here again due to the cockroach issue, especially when we paid over $5,500 for the week. For that amount of money, you should at least get 2 chairs and an umbrella for the week. Something management should consider.
Beautiful place. Accurate description and pictures. We had a great time

Great location. Overall it was a good experience. Thengs to be aware of: Not much parking. Smaller pool and not much room to relax by pool. The master bedroom is by the hall and there’s a light on all night. Need black out curtains. Also pans and knives not great if you want to do much cooking. There’s an extra large ice maker which was nice for filling coolers. Bed in the front room was not comfortable but the rest of the beds had toppers that were nice. Host is responsive a helpful.

Reviewer Comments:
The condo layout was great. We loved all the space. However it seemed a little neglected and dirty. Cockroaches were spotted which was disgusting. It needed a deep cleaning and some repairs. The master bed desperately needs a new mattress and the shower curtain and liner needs replaced. The couch also needs to be replaced.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
Disliked: Listing accuracy
Ok for a quick getaway....but....
Check in was easy, as the package was left outside the rental agency. It was a penthouse and we would have expected better for what we paid. The VCR/DVD a wouldn't work, when we looked at the remote control we found out the batteries were corroded in it so no one ever used this. The selection of movies at the rental office were very limited. Chair and umbrella service not included...The Jacuzzi tub did not work, so if you're looking for a hot tub they don't have one....nor a jetted tub. Hospitality platform very wonky, checkout did not work.
But the beach was lovely!
So if your looking for a quick get away and none of those issues concern you, this might be a nice option for you. But watch the price.....

Very beautiful condo! Plenty of space for 10 people. Highly recommend.
The description says 1 king and 3 queen size beds, it’s not it is 1 king and 3 full size beds. Makes ver difficult with kids sleeping with you.

Our sheets were stained in two rooms, bed broken in in one room, and bed spread stained up in master with king. The dishes were dirty in the cabinets. Dust everywhere. Dirty towels on top of the washer that we had to wash. It really just needs a good cleaning and new sheets.
