Great location with the ability to walk to several dining spots(the hangout, sea n suds, etc.) it was so spacious and fit 6 of us easily(3 adults and 3 kids{11yo, 10yo, 6yo}) the hall closet with all the beach toys was a huge hit with the kids.

Great Stay

We have been coming to Gulf Shores for a few years. First time staying at The Boardwalk. Loved the big pool and the smaller bldg. No waiting for elevators. Only thing we didn’t care for was the owner had a lot packed in closet so no room for our suitcases. We would stay there again.

Room was nice location was good the short beach was a huge plus. Definitely need to get a bathroom on the pool level was very challenging at times to get back to your room with kids fo the bathroom from the pool Jodi was very prompt in getting back to me about door code. Only downfall was the balcony smokers below us made it tough sometimes to enjoy the balcony. But overall a great stay

The condo was clean and very well outfitted for our group of four adults & 4 teenagers. We had a great time - many things are within walking distance that we wished to do and all of us enjoyed the seafood in the area! This is my 12th year of visiting the Gulf Shores area and this is one of the best units I have stayed in. Ed was very helpful when I called him with a couple of concerns. Thanks again - we hope to return next summer for another girls week out!

Boardwalk condo

The condo could have been cleaner. It is dated and we expected that. Right on the beach, restaurant on site. That was handy. Very limited walkability to bars and restaurants other than the Sea and Suds that is on site. Be prepared to wait to get into the place. The property managers were great.

The perfect place for our family!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The condo was spacious enough for all of us (6 adults, 2 children) and comfortable. Communication with the host was excellent and she was very accommodating to our requests, which I appreciated! Specific things we loved about our stay here- the condo was FULLY stocked from the kitchen with all we needed to cook as well as a closet full of beach toys etc! Loved the pay it forward shelves that had extra food and laundry items! Check the kitchen before you go shopping! You may not need to buy salt/pepper etc. The elevators were almost always on demand. The pool was never crowded. Security was always present. Sea n Suds restaurant was steps away and had good food and drinks! And obviously, THE VIEW! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay and many memories to cherish forever! We have found our place to stay when we visit Gulf Shores!!

About the host

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

We chose this area not only because of the beautiful beaches and water but because Gulf Shores still has that small town atmosphere with lots of attractions in and around the area and plenty of friendly people.

What makes this property unique

We enjoy the many places to eat seafood, The Original Oyster House is always a favorite, Pappa Rocco's has good pizza and live entertainment nightly, The Hangout is centrally located in Gulf Shores and is a great place to meet friends, have lunch, dinner, cocktails, play volleyball, let the kids play in the playgrounds and it is only a very short walk from Boardwalk. Of course we can't forget our next door neighbor Sea n Suds when you want to grab lunch or dinner and don't want to have to go far at all. There is plenty of beach shops that are all within walking distance and also a very nice Outlet Mall. We always enjoy a great little town not far away called Fairhope, lots of unique shops and wonderful food. If you want to cook your own seafood we have found Billy's seafood located on the Bon Secour River, this seafood is fresh off the boat and always great prices.
