About this property

Penthouse - Gulf front, great pool, massive balcony!

Highlights

Where to begin!? This recently updated, beachfront penthouse condo is an absolute oasis. For starters, the balcony must be seen to be believed. It is massive and includes loungers as well as a dining table and chairs. You'll want to enjoy dining al fresco or spend time here just savoring the views. Step inside and you'll adore the oversized living space with a "viewing" bar facing the gulf. This is the absolute perfect spot for that morning coffee or afternoon cocktail. Comfortable seating, a large screen TV and an open floor plan will ensure your group enjoys their stay.

The Space

The kitchen features new quartz countertops, new custom cabinets, new stainless appliances and a breakfast bar with seating for 4. The open floor plan allows even the cooks in the group to savor those amazing views.

The oversized master bedroom contains a king bed, private bath and direct balcony access. You'll also find a comfortable swivel chair and large screen TV. Or use the chair to take in the great views from the bedroom!

Two additional, nicely decorated bedrooms have a king and a queen bed. These two bedrooms share a hall bath.

The kids in your group (or even young at heart adults!) will fall in love with the "kids" retreat. Two twin beds, an oversized bean bag and a fun table and chairs complete this room. Oh, and did we mention a large screen TV?

The Gulf Tower is in the heart of Gulf Shores, is direct beach front, and is convenient to everything this coastal town has to offer - restaurants, shopping, bike & scooter rentals, water park, golf, and outlet shopping.


Great condo, great pool, incredible beach! We're sure you'll enjoy this beachfront condo so much that you'll be back again and again.

The view was great! Simple beach access. Very spacious. Located close enough to the center to access easily, but not too close to noise. Beds were so comfortable! Wish I had checked the mattress brand because the bed was more comfortable than my own. Very unusual for a rental, and very welcome!

We really enjoyed our stay and the location of the condo. The only complaint we have was the master bedroom and the room beside it didn’t have good airflow. It stayed hot in those rooms. Besides that, we would book this condo again.

The property was perfect. It’s amazing what you can see from the 14th floor. Birds were eye level. The kids loved being able to look down and see dolphins in the water.
