Fantastic Getaway!

My wife and I have stayed here 3 years in a row and I wouldn't want to go anywhere else. The room is very comfy, the view from the balcony is gorgeous, and you're located within minutes of some of the best restaurants in Orange Beach. We'll definitely be back next year!

Emerald Skye

The property was clean however there was mold throughout on the ceiling and it smelled moldy. The bathroom sink didn’t drain well. There were not very many electrical outlets and the ones we did have did not hold the plug in they would fall out. Overall property was easy to access from the road. The beach was very close and had easy accessibility. Easy to check in and out with timely clear directions.

Weekend Trip

We had a great weekend stay at this property! Checkin was seamless, property was clean, and access to the beach was phenomenal. Parking tag was a little difficult to locate as it was up in a cabinet, but after a quick search it was located. The only thing I will note is the door does not have the ability to stay open without being held, and is rather heavy and shuts very hard and fast. Check out was an easy process with clear directions. Overall this was a great stay, and we would definitely stay again.

Unhappy

Property was outdated. Sofa bed very uncomfortable. Bathroom did not appear to have been cleaned and shower curtain should have been replaced. Spent $40.00 on cleaning supplies myself. The toilet acted like it was going to go through by the floor. Had no information about what to do with Dehumidifier. It ran over and this was on second morning, so emptied, cleaned up and then washed towels it took to mop floor. Assumed that fixed it. Next morning it had water all over floor, hardly an ounce in bucket. Did clean up routine again. So, decided to unplug it and leave off. Come back in that night and floor wet and took 3 towels to mop it up again. Called Sands of Alabama ( the only number I had). They offered to bring more towels but once again had started washing them. They asked me to mo but e dehumidifier to balcony to prevent moisture on floor. Which I gladly did. I also called when I left to remind them it was on balcony. The view was gorgeous! Loved spending time on balcony, listening to waves.
