About this property

Castaways Condominium is located on the lovely beaches of Gulf Shores. Our newly remodeled 2 bedroom condo is on the top floor (9th) so you have an incredible view of the ocean while only hearing the sounds of the waves hitting the beach. Our complex has only 36 units so there are no crowds and a very short walk will sink your toes into the sand on our large, private beach!

Being just 1/4 mile from the main Gulf Shores intersection we are within walking distance of many souvenir stores and restaurants including a favorite spot, The Hangout, which has live music, outside dining, shopping and a variety of entertainment for the whole family. Also we're just a short drive away from the zoo, water and amusement parks, movie theaters, many golf courses, deep sea fishing plus many shopping options including an outlet mall with over 120 stores.

The open layout in the living area is great for visiting with family and friends and features an expansive beachfront view, Flat Screen TV, DVD player and sleeper sofa. The kitchen has many appliances and updated cabinets which contain all the cooking essentials to help you prepare your family meals & desserts during your stay. There is also a washer and dryer and free Wi-fi.

The spacious master suite has a king sized bed with a futon that converts into a double sized bed.
It also features a large oceanfront window, private access to the balcony and a very large walk-in closet. The second bedroom has one twin bunk bed and another bunk bed with a twin over a full sized bed. Each bedroom has a private bathroom with double vanity sink, plenty of storage and a separate bath area.

Our complex has a fitness room with flat screen TV's and a beachfront swimming pool which extends underneath the condo for relief from the sun. Lounge chairs are available on the deck and tables with seating available in the shade with two charcoal grills nearby. Beach chairs and umbrellas are available for rental along with jet-ski’s and parasailing. The Alabama State park is just minutes away with a great fishing pier. Bicycles and motorized scooters are available for rent just across the street.

Great!

The condo is right on the beach and the view is absolutely breathtaking! We were very close to restaurants and the hang out. The only thing that is tricky is the parking. Other than that it was great. We had a wonderful time!

Beautiful condo but needs a little attention

This is a beautiful condo but the kitchen was not fully stocked. There were only 5 spoons & not enough dishes so we had to constantly wash dishes to have enough to eat with. The beds were not very comfortable. And the water pressure in the building would drop during high usage times and only air would come out of the faucet briefly during those times. There is only one elevator in the building and although it’s not a high occupancy building you do have to wait for the elevator most of the time. The parking lot is very tight and difficult to park anything bigger than an economy car. The location however was excellent and the owner was nice but probably won’t choose to stay here again.

This place was AWFUL

Room had the bare minimum cleaned. Countertops were dirty, toaster still had crumbs on top and on counter around it, coffee maker was dirty, built up food on and between the stove and counter top, the previous guest left their toothpaste spit in the sink and toenail clippings in the un-cleaned floor, hair in the shower, stained furniture, ceiling fans had not been dusted in a very long time nor had under the beds, microwave and fridge uncleaned, non stick surface actually stuck to my kids dinner resulting in us eating out every night (unplanned), was told extra cleaning being done due to covid-but the remotes had no batteries which is an obvious weight difference than remotes with batteries which prompted me to think they had no been cleaned-2 clorox wiped per remote later i determined they def were dirty, cabinet doors in kitchen were filthy as were the walls... owner-Sharon notified management who was supposed to speak to us the next day, never happened. Tried getting management myself to come look at the room the night we checked in but 40 minutes was too far for her to drive so she sent someone to clean up the room a little the next day (who left the bag of stuff she swept and dusted on the counter with food), management nor owner never addressed concerns other than sending the cleaner, who at least tried to clean up some but it was still not even mopped. Not sure if sheets were clean bc we were afraid to turn down the beds in fear of what we would find so we slept on top of bedding with our own blankets the entire trip. We also wore shores the entire time bc of how nasty this place was. I have PLENTY of photos to share if you would like to see, share an email and I'll be happy to send them. I'm not really sure how to share them here. Totally disappointed and when wanting a resolution the OWNER (Sharon) and management company (PAM WITH STARFISH REALITY), neither were willing to communicate or assist other than the halfway cleaning attempt the day after we arrived. I tried to resolve without leaving a negative review, but unfortunately, they were unwilling to do so and I do not want someone else to make the sa.e mistake we made!!

Love Gulf Shores

Loved the condo proximity to the beach. Did not love having to find out if you have more than one vehicle, you must purchase additional parking passes. MUST bring your own beach towels, none in this rental. Cleaning crew may need a little training as we found someone else’s socks and trash on the floor.
