The condo was beautiful and the kitchen had everything we needed in order to cook and eat. We could see the beach from our back porch. We had to walk through the pool and the beach was right there. The communication with the manager was phenomenal. Already in the process of booking for next year.

This was our 4th stay at 102A Spyglass condo. The Condo was clean as usual, fully furnished & most importantly, only a few steps from the beach. We enjoy the balcony with great views. The kitchen, bathrooms & bedrooms have everything you need for a great vacation experience. Highly recommend.

Absolutely had a wonderful time at the Spyglass and would recommend to everyone. Just steps away from the beach (literally out your door), private pool, and beautiful ocean views. Donna was wonderful to work with and responded promptly to my messages or calls. Look forward to my next trip

The condo was perfect. Excellent location. Beach access was amazing. Just a few steps away. It was wonderful sitting on the deck and being able to see the Gulf including the Dolphins that we were able to see a few times. The property was very clean and provided an amazing home away from home for the week. Donna was an amazing host. Very attentive and quick to respond to to messages. If you're staying in Gulf Shores we can not recommend this place enough. You won't be disappointed!

Great unit. For the price. Great views. We will stay again.

Enjoyed our stay. Small condominium- light foot traffic. Steps to the beach. More adult atmosphere. Saved money on room and did some excursions. We will plan to stay again. This was perfect for me and my husband.

Great little condo

We really enjoyed our stay. The condo is really nice and you can’t beat the location. My only complaint was the parking space. It was a little difficult to get in and out of with a Chevy Colorado. Overall 5 stars. The owner was super nice and responded really fast. We definitely recommend!!

Family beach getaway

My family had stayed at the Spyglass 20 years ago. We enjoyed it then and REALLY enjoyed it this time. The updates are classic and comfortable. The kitchen had everything. Bedrooms were spacious and bathrooms nicely renovated. The balcony was especially nice to relax on with amazing views. The property owner, Donna, is quick to respond to her guests. I would stay here again. What you see is what you get.

Great location, couple of minor issues

Great location in Gulf shores, but since it is right next to the only picnic access point in the area, the beach gets really crowded. The condo as a whole was nice but the mattress in the master bedroom was probably the worst I've ever slept on. I'm not sure what was wrong with it but it sunk in on the left side and wasn't much better on the right. There was also a small blood stain on the sheets of one of the twin beds.Finally, there is a picture in the listing that shows arrows pointing to two separate balconies, giving the impression that there are two balconies on the condo. There is only one and the balcony facing the beach is for the condo next door.

Excellent Views!!

Overall we had an incredible stay at this condo!! The views were great and the condo was nice and clean! I appreciated the use of the wifi! My ONLY small complaint would be the parking situation. Having an SUV it was challenging to get in and out of the parking lot! Seems like the property owners need to reevaluate that! Then we had to walk up to the street THEN we could access the pathway to the beach. Great GREAT place to stay!! The condo was niceand had GREAT AC too!!! We're very pleased with our stay!!! Tad pricey but I guess it's prime season for the beach!! Thanks Donna thanks for allowing us to borrow your condo!!

The view!

We loved our stay at Donna's place. The best part for us was the ocean view from the balcony and the quick walk over the dunes to the water. We went with 5 adults and everyone was comfortable and had plenty of space. The bed in the master bedroom is wonderful! If I'm giving a review in all honesty, I should share that the condo was not well cleaned upon our arrival. I had a conversation with Donna about this and she said she would speak to the management company about their housekeeping. Although it didn't help me for our stay, hopefully it will help someone in the future. I personally did some cleaning myself and felt comfortable after that. All-in-all we enjoyed our stay and would return in the future.
