Relaxing and Great Location
We were very happy with our stay. Being right on the beach with a view of the Gulf Shores was very relaxing. The property was very clean upon arrival and was the perfect size for our family of 3. Private parking and quick/easy access to the beach enhanced the experience. Would definitely recommend!!

June 30 2023
Over all it was a really nice place. Small but big enough for the 2 of us. My only complaint is the tv didn’t work, which I called the number listed and they came to fix it. But you have to have your own programs. Netflix etc. elderly people don’t know to work that. The other thing was the balcony was usable due to construction ( I knew it may not be). I will probably stay there again.

Great place for couples’ getaway!
This was the first time we’ve rented a condo. The only drawback about this particular location is that we were driving everyday to experience the reason we there…, The IronMan Triathlon event .Downtown was a mile away. We would prefer to be with in walking distance of major activities.

locked out
we were locked out of our residence on the morning that we were departing before the check out time. this was very frustrating as all the information to contact vrbo was locked in my room. The room was great but a hand held shower device would have came in handy trying to get sand off of you.

The building was well maintained, the property was close to the beach and many restaurants
Only real issue we had, was check out was @ 10am. At 9:30 am We made a trip down to the office with a portion of our bags, when we went back up our code would not work to get us back in the unit, where our cell phones were. Management helped us gain access.

Best spot in PCB
This rental was perfect for our needs. First, I’ll address the only “negative” which is unavoidable with a beach property. Of course there was a bit of sand on the tile floors. After going to the beach ourselves, I say in my opinion they are doing a good job of clearing as much sand as possible. Now, for all the reasons you should be staying here. The Sunbird resort is the place to be! You are perfectly situated far enough away from the really busy parts of PCB and near the St. Andrews bay said of town. This saves time no matter which side you decide to explore. There is a private beach, which means you are sharing the sand with far less people. The beach to the west of Pineapple Willy’s (which is a great restaurant right next door that you will want to visit more than once during your stay) was not private and had 4 packed rows of beach chairs. Our side to the east had one row. Speaking of which, your room has a beautiful balcony view. This is perfect for drinking your morning coffee and your cocktails any time you do decide to stay in.

Great place!
We really enjoyed staying here. Great location with close proximity to shops, restaurants and, of course, the beach! The unit offered spectacular views, just as advertised. Super responsive owners - when our flight was cancelled by the airline, they were able to accommodate our new dates without any issues. Would definitely stay again!

End of school break and Birthday celebration
The condo was in overall great condition. Very comfortable for my wife and myself. Great views of the ocean and steps from the beach. The cleaners missed a few things like floors and stuff on walls and doors but the management team was on it getting it taken care of. It was a great stay overall

Peace and quiet
I have rented many condos through the years, this one was by far the best. The attention to detail inside this condo was very accommodating. The availability of elevators, the quiet clean building, friendly parking attendant, all things we appreciated and will have us returning to this same condo in a the future.
