This lovely condo is in a premier location to shopping, restaurants, and bars and is directly on the beach. The condo was well appointed and had top of the line updates and amenities. We cannot wait to stay there again!
This condo was perfect for our family getaway to the beach. It was exactly as described and in a wonderful location. We would definitely book this condo again.
By far one of the best places we have stayed in Gulf Shores. Excellent location, spacious condo that included so many extras throughout. Very clean, pictures don’t do it justice. Would definitely stay here again!!
First time staying in Gulf Shores with our family. Nothing better than staying right on the beach—super convenient location close to shopping and favorite food stops. Travel to Alligator Alley, mini golf, the Yard, Lamberts to name a few— was only a short drive away—even visited the Florida/Alabama border and Orange Beach. Spent time enjoying the views provided by the condo’s balcony. Would overall recommend this vacation stay!!
Very nice condo with a beautiful view- wall of windows. Loved sitting on the deck and watching the dolphins. Has a nice large dining room table area to sit and eat and play games with family. Excellent location, close to many stores, restaurants. I'm very picky about cleanliness and this condo was exceptional. Had a minor issue with the water heater, but property manager responded promptly and had it fixed within a couple hours. Would definitely stay here again!
Very nice condo, however floors were not very clean Garage had no remote and very heavy to open and close. Finally broke lose from track and had to leave open when we left Also reported problem with shower and was never fixed

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the condo, and we truly appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention. We always aim to provide a seamless, comfortable stay, so we’re sorry to hear about the floors, garage door, and shower issues during your visit. Your feedback helps us make things better, and we’ll be following up with our team to ensure these items are addressed promptly for future guests.
Loved this condo! Everything was within walking distance. Right on the beach!
I will say the only draw back was the garage size . If you have a larger vehicle (we were in an expedition) the parking garage is extremely tight. You always have the ability to pay for additional parking.
Our family vacation, family of 8, was absolutely wonderful. Unit 401 was exceptional! They had everything so nice, clean, and ready for us. The view was breathtaking from our living room, dining room, kitchen, and balcony. The only
negative for us was parking, because we had to take 2 vehicles. And at this current time only one vehicle was allowed to be parked on the property.

Thank you, Allison, for taking the time to leave a review. We are so glad to hear how much y'all enjoyed the condo and your stay. The 5 stars are an added bonus. For that, we are grateful. We apologize for any miscommunication regarding the parking. However, the owner for this specific condo graciously offers the use of their private garage space. The space and access information was included in the arrival information you received prior to check-in. Thanks, again, for the 5-star review and thank you for choosing Beach Getaways.
Place was amazing! Clean, great location, and beautifully decorated.
Wonderful! Our kids loved it, including our 16 year old. Aging parents also came and loved it as well! We'd go back. Only issue was with check in. Our first two door codes did not work and we were going back and forth with rental agency for about half an hour before getting in the door. But things happen sometimes. Folks involved were very friendly.
The One Where 2 turned 40. The one where 1 turned 47. We had the most fun!!!! The condo was beautiful!! The decorations were sooo awesome!! I walked around the entire condo taking pictures so we can show all of our friends and family how beautiful it was. We came to stay on the beach as many hours as we possibly could and this vacation we didn’t want to leave the condo. Thank you for letting us stay in your home. We will be back and we will only stay in 401. From: “The Book Club” , The Sharon’s, And all other The Sisters. Aka Sharon Jamie Johnetta Sharon Vicky Micah and Jenay.

Happy, belated, Birthdays to all! We're so glad that y'all had this time together. Sounds like you enjoyed yourselves to the fullest. Thank you so much for the 5 star review and thank you for allowing Beach Getaways to be part of your celebration.
Our trip was wonderful! Only complaint was the very rude lady in the office when I went in to inquire about our parking passes. We had a garage with our condo and I was just wondering did I need to purchase another pass for my vehicle in the garage. Well she let me know rudely that we were only allowed 1 parking pass and that was all, instead of just explaining to me that I didn't need another one. I called the rental company and everything was taken care of. I never complain, but it was very uncalled for how she talked to me and my daughter. But she will not keep us from renting there again cause we will be back!! Thank you
