The first thing we noticed was how clean the unit was, and then we were mesmerized by the view. We vacation in Orange Beach almost every year, but this was our first time to stay here. The condo is very large and everyone appreciated a bath for each bedroom. The owners provided a well-stocked kitchen and everything needed for our stay. We loved this low density building and the time spent here. We definitely would stay here again.

Everything was great! We felt safe in the area. Condo was in a quiet location but close to shopping and restaurants. It was in good condition and parking was exceptional. The beach was close, clean and umbrella/chair rental was available. The corner balcony had a great view of the sunrise and the beach! We are planning our next vacation already and will definitely try to get Marlin 2G.

A Few Surprises

The positives: the gated entry at Marlin Key was nice and the dedicated covered parking was much appreciated. The location was excellent, near everything. The negatives: we were surprised that there were no restrooms in the pool area. It was pretty inconvenient to go back to the unit from the beach if anyone needed to use the restroom during the day. We were also surprised that the boardwalk from the pool area to the beach pictured in the listing no longer exists. The extra walking in the sand with beach "stuff" was harder on the older folks in our party. The wifi was very unstable and dropped out completely for a couple of days making it impossible to get anything done on the internet. Finally, some of the decor had obviously been changed since the photos in the listing were posted. Newer photos should be posted to accurately show how the unit is furnished. For the reasons listed the best rating I would give Marlin Key 2G is 3 stars.

It was wonderful! Gorgeous beach. Condo was awesome. Roomy and the corner balcony was the best. Well stocked. So many restaurants within 10 minutes. Shelley’s Beach Rentals set up on the beach. We rented chairs with umbrellas. Everything about this vacation was perfect. Definitely on our fave list.

We loved being in a building with fewer units. No fighting over parking or the elevator. This condo has so much room and nicely furnished. The ground and pool were immaculate. We will definately stay here again!

Awesome place right on the beach!

Lovely place to stay with our family. Each bedroom had its own bathroom. Multiple hoses to rinse the sand off. Parking was questionable- to be clear- you have 2 spots allocated to you, 1 under the condos and 1 out in the parking lot. Necessary to know because the regulars can get rude about it. Overall, would definitely stay here again.

My beach vacation 2023

This unit could use some updates. The couch is sagging in the middle, but the mattress on the pull out was good. There are areas on the cabinets that there was tape holding it together and chipping. That did not bother me as much as the smell in the freezer. It was awful. The ice machine does not work at the bar and we could not use the ice in the freezer due to the seafood smell. The broom only had 1/3 of the bristles left so we could not sweep the floors. This place is a great location. Beautiful view and right on the beach. The rest of the condo was good. Our beds were comfortable. They just need to fix a few things and this would be a great condo.

Good and Bad

Great location. Layout and size of condo is great. Loved the end unit balcony. Beds were comfortable. Condo was clean and kitchen was stocked well. FYI Coffee maker is filter drip coffee maker and not a pod coffee maker Condo needs TLC. Front door was a nightmare to get in and out of. Lock did not work per directions. Took us two hours to get someone out there to help us get in. Then the door was very heavy and had to use force to get it open. Not easy for a group of senior citizens. Veneer on kitchen and bathroom cabinets is coming off. Instead of repairing, some of it has been taped back on. Locks on sliding doors to balcony didn’t work. This is a security issue. Finally, no chairs were in bedrooms to sit on. Another item that is not senior/handicap friendly especially when you have knee/back issues. One strange thing no mirrors in the bedrooms that people could use while someone else was using the one in bathroom.

Great property with lots of space

I always enjoy the Marlin Key and Dolphin Key properties. There is lots of room for everyone and you can’t beat the convenience of the beach access. This is my first visit to this unit, but I have others to compare it to. The unit itself can use some sprucing up. Lower cabinets and island in the kitchen need repair, as does the cabinet under the bar. There is mold/mildew from it being wet. The sofa and ALL throw pillows in the unit need to be replaced. They smell and the sofa has a huge dip in it. The shower curtain in the front bathroom needs repair as well. It is hanging on by just 3 hooks. Again, I always enjoy staying on the property, however, this unit could use some repair and a good deep cleaning.

Enjoyed my stay at Marlin Key. The condo was clean. I think there should have been TV guide or instructions on which remote to use. There were 4 remotes in living room and I wasn't able to use the bedroom TV. I would stay there again.
