Hello! The bolt on the outside door was not in working order.The shower head was coming out of the drywall.The couch was very well used and uncomfortable.The bed was ok.The furniture looked like it is was purchased in a thrift store.The kitchen was pretty well stocked with appliances and etc.The dishwasher was hard to get working. It took several tries turning it on and off to get it to come on when we left.We love the Light House and have been coming every year for the last 15 years and this was the worst condo we have stayed in. Just giving you some information for potential improvements to this specific condo.Thanks!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We sincerely apologize for the maintenance and condition issues you encountered, including the exterior door bolt, shower head, furniture comfort, and dishwasher functionality. These are not the standards we aim to provide, and we understand how these issues impacted your overall experience in the unit. We’re glad to hear that you found the kitchen well stocked, but we also recognize that this does not outweigh the concerns you raised. Your detailed feedback is very valuable and will be shared with both our maintenance and property teams so that these items can be reviewed and addressed. We truly appreciate your honesty and continued support over the years. We hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a much-improved experience on a future stay.

Great place to stay with family in gulf shores

Large nice condominium right off the main strip of businesses. Our unit was spacious, stocked with everything you need including toys for the beach and chairs and umbrella. Beach entry was convenient and the pools were a hit with the kids, they stay open until 1030pm and they lived night swimming.

Location is great! 4th floor above pool and beach access. 10 min walk to The Hangout and several other restaurants. Condo had lots of pots, pans, and silverware. We did have a few minor issues with condo but management was quick to resolve and easy to work with.
