Location was amazing place was okay
The place is very outdated and was not clean when we got there there was dead water bugs under beds and in living room there was piss stains under the couch and the water pressure sucks the location was amazing just the hotel needs work
Very clean, very nice pool, not fun walking up stairs every time but we managed! Communication wasn’t the best (getting back in a timely manner) Overall.. good stay!
Our group loved the beach access being across the street!!

Supplies and unit
There is no main floor unit. The unit is on second floor wirh 32 steps. 2 rolls of TP for 8 guest for 5 days. No dish soap/dishwasher soap or laundry soap but requested us to wash towels.
We had a great time and loved the condo :). We’re already planning a trip - hopefully in October - but definitely we will be back next June :)

We found a live roach in the bathroom. Owner said she would someone out as son as possible. We never saw anyone. There were no beach towels as stated on the website. The first night we cooked we found that the garbage disposal leaked and if you run the dishwasher it leaked even worse. I told the owner about this and she thanked me for telling her. Then she sad she will get it fixed. The reason I gave a 3star is because our grandchildren had so much fun in the pool and we did have a beach view. This was not a good experience.
We truly had a lovely stay and the owner was so great. There was a couple things that could’ve made a better stay with having an infant ( a few broken tiles in bathroom, poor water pressure) and of course the peninsula is super packed but overall the stay was amazing and we enjoyed every second
We really enjoyed Jennifers property, and she laid everything out so that we would be comfortable with everything :) Parking is nice and its located in a nice seemingly quiet neighborhood! The pool was closed but we only stayed one night so it wasnt much of an issue :) It was about an 8 minute drive to downtown gulf shores so nicely located!
The property was comfortable and in a great location, very easily walk to the beach. The queen beds in 2 of the rooms were super hard but some enjoy that I suppose. Overall I would def stay again. We even left some fun beach toys in the closet for the next guest as it seems that was the thing to do since it was full of toys and floaties.
Everything was really great! One down side was that there was construction going on at the condo building next door and they were at it very early in the morning on Saturday and Sunday.
The home was beautiful and communication with the host when necessary was very easy and efficient. (The only time they were contacted was for information on check in, we had no issues.) The area is very nice, quiet and convenient. Overall highly recommend. Something to mention, I did not realize while booking it was located on the second floor, so keep that in mind if you are not as physically able for stairs.
This is the third summer we've stayed in this condo at Sea Oats. It's spacious and perfect for families with a view of the ocean and pool. The condo itself is clean, it could use some updating but is nice for those with little ones as there is plenty of space to move around. The washer/dryer in unit is a lifesaver. We love the location of this condo as it's right between the lagoon and the beach, neither are a far walk. Everyone is friendly and we have a great time each year! We will be back!

Condo Review
For the price, it was decent. However, the kitchen had sugar ants and gnats.The bathroom floors & tub need to be upgraded. The furniture in the living room need to be cleaned. Furthermore, the pull out bed in the living room was not worth pulling out. You get what, you pay for.
Overall we had a great time staying here. Communication with the property owner was quick and very helpful. Just a couple of things worth mentioning. It is on the second floor which can be difficult when hauling in your luggage or groceries. The master bedroom mattress has worn out spots that were so uncomfortable that my husband and I slept sideways on the mattress hoping to help with back pain. The pull out couch is not able to be slept on due to feeling every spring through it and the amount of urine stains on it. If you dont need the pull out, you should be fine. I would stay here again with some upgrades to the mattresses. The place as a whole could use some TLC but we spent most of our time on the beach.

spring break
Overall experience in renting and accessing property was excellent.
This is the third condo I have stayed at this Sea Oats location and the dirtiest. This condo needs a good cleaning, carpets need cleaned to better yet removed and replaced with tile, who has carpet where sand is everywhere to be tracked in? The sofa needs to be replaced, there was not support, when we sat down we pretty much sunk to the floor. Overall, I would not rent this unit again, it needs cleaning, comfortable furniture and fresh paint.
We so enjoyed our time in the Sea Oats condo. The proximity to the beach is great, we were able to take our three little ones easily to the beach multiple times a day without issue. The traffic is slow on the road in front of the beach. The lagoon is beautiful and a fun place to look for critters/fish. The two pools were great! Never too busy and always friendly people there! The condo itself was super clean and had most things we needed. Wish it had trash bags because it wasn’t something I thought about at the store and I didn’t want to buy 50 for a week… The owners were responsive when issues arose. The unit itself is huge and it was very quiet. The laundry in unit saved us! I wish it had a dining area on the balcony but the double sliding doors are so fun! We often opened it up to let some fresh air in. You can see the pool from the unit- which was great with kids! The beds were comfortable. The couches and carpet could use a cleaning but overall we loved it and will be back!!
This place was so awesome for our group. It was such a short walk to beach. We were able to escape for sunrise or sunset to read or walk around. Super easy to get to and away from business of spring breakers. We were on a quiet side of beach and didn’t have to fight crowds. Overall we would stay again if we visited Gulf Shores Again!
