Quick spring break trip!

It was good location. We had one good day at the beach then we had to go to indoor waterpark and find indoor things due to weather. We didn’t spend much time in the condo but great location and easy parking. They did have a big box with new dishwasher in the unit the guy offer to move it before installing the next day we told him not to worry we aren’t using kitchen anyways except refrigerator and microwave. We do recommend the drive to eat at Jessie’s on the Bay. It was excellent. Great views and the chairs were fairly priced.

Great beach views

Overall enjoyed our stay-we did have a dishwasher that did not work and 2 of the 4 beach chairs were broken when we arrived..but service was very responsive and brought us 2 new beach chairs the same day. Elevator service was out for 1 day of our stay and the wifi had all been recently updated with new passwords that we had to talk to someone in the office to sort out. Condo is smaller than photos appear but the space worked for our needs-most of the time you are out at the beach! Would have been nice to have even a salt and pepper shaker but there were no basic kitchen supplies other than keurig coffee cups. Building is on the old side but the condo itself is very tastefully decorated and updated. Parking is very easy but costs 50. Great location and you can't beat watching the waves from the 4th floor balcony!

Amazing place to stay!!

Our family of 4 stayed here for a quick trip. This condo has great updates and comfortably accommodated our family. Beds in both rooms are very comfortable and we slept great every night. Condo was clean and came equipped with everything we needed…even a super cute coffee bar!! View of the beach is amazing!! We were able to see dolphins in the mornings during our stay. Owner texted regularly to check and make sure we were enjoying our stay. Can easily walk to souvenir shops and great restaurants. I HIGHLY recommend staying here. We will definitely be back!!

February Getaway

The condo was immaculate. Everything was updated and it was one of the most well-stocked kitchens we’ve ever stayed in for our trips to the beach. Wonderful view. We parked the car and didn’t need it for 4 days, as everything is within walking distance. This will definitely be our first choice for our next trip to Gul Shores.

Beautiful Condo, Great Get Away Stay!

The Condo is Beautiful! It was very clean and stocked with anything that you would need or use at home. The owners stocked the kitchen, bathrooms and laundry room area. They supply everything that you need for the beach. There is an awesome Coffee bar, supplied with coffees of all kinds, sugar, etc. Really, just bring your clothes!, really….. they even supplied toothbrushs! The location is great, we walked to The Hangout and different restaurants and stores for shopping. My only disappointments were that the condo sleeps 8 , but they only supplies bath towels for 4. So, you will have to do laundry (at least towels) if you stay for longer than 2 nights. The other issue was that I sent an email asking for the cost of parking prior to booking, an email was returned with an awesome price, so we booked. However, the price that was were charged when checking in was much higher. The email price was not honored and we were told that the employee that sent the price in the email, just sent the wrong price….. like what?!? How was that our fault?!? Other than that, it was a wonderful trip!

Great Condo!

The condo is really nice. Decorated so cute, farmhouse chic! Beds were great, linens were plentiful and the kitchen was well stocked. In fact, this property (of the many I've stayed in) was the most thoughtful and well prepared one. Little baskets of extras you might forget in the bathrooms, extra soap for the kitchen, laundry soap in case you didn't bring enough, and more. I was amazed at the details, there are games, movies, books, even a set of walkie-talkies in case someone is at the beach or going for snacks. The coffee bar was amazing with both a k cup variety and a standard coffee machine. Only one slight bummer was the floor in the kitchen and main area. They needed mopped good. Last guest spilled cooking oil off of the stove and the floor wasn't cleaned and slick as can be. Not property owner fault but cleaning crew missed and my feet were black by the end of the day and I didn't go outside. Otherwise, the condo was very clean and fresh. Love the view. Balcony was great. Chairs are the very heavy recycled material and fabulous for hours watching dolphins. Condo included beach chairs to take down if you wish. Washer and dryer are stackable so the loads need to be small but it was perfect. Never had any issues with either elevator, they were quick, I'm not sure about the other posters complaints. Outside was fine, getting repainted and refreshed. I would definitely stay in this condo again!

Stay Here and Be Happy

Second time we have booked this location and see no reason to stay anywhere else. We suggest parking around back if you have a balcony on the Gulf so you can see your car. Stayed about a week and had wonderful weather so we could take full advantage of the balcony. Rooms were very clean but the floors needed a good steam mop. I think the cleaning crew uses a swiffer or something, my feet were black and I didn't leave the condo most days. Beds were very comfortable. Master might need replaced or turned. But it still was very comfortable and this isn't a complaint at all. I loved the master, it has a huge window with shutters that I could open as early as I wanted and lay in the bed and watch the waves, birds and a couple dolphins. Every single day but one, we watched dolphins from our balcony. The last day we saw them, which was my birthday, there were 8 in a group that were passing by, splashing and one jumped out of the water! So awesome! Beach is soft, white sand and great to plop down and enjoy it all. Water was crystal clear. Kitchen is fully stocked and we needed nothing at all. They gave you one kitchen washcloth and one towel..uh, for a week. Bath linens were plentiful though. One dishwasher pack and one trashbag for the kitchen seemed a bit sparse. It does say just starters are provided. Very nice touches and very cute decor. Even had a brand new living room recliner brought in during our stay! Stay here, be happy

Great Condo

We absolutely loved this condo and its location! The view from the master bedroom is stunning, the decor is lovely, and it includes many extras-beach chairs, a cooler, umbrella, extra laundry soap etc. Everything was clean and service was prompt when we were missing clean kitchen towels. The location was great, with a nice paved path to dining and shopping. We would definitely visit again and stay in this same spot!
