Fantastic Trip

The condo was great! It was by far the cleanest, nicest condo we've ever stayed in down in Gulf Shores. Communications were also fantastic. All questions were answered in advance with so many informative email communications. We had a great experience. We'll be looking to possibly book through Beachball again in the Spring when we return to the beach.

Great Condo

My wife and I stayed here 8/20-8/26. She says, "best vacation since 2005." What a joy, the condo was better in person than online. We enjoyed the master bedroom opening to the Gulf and most nights we slept w/door open to hear the waves crashing. Great view from the 8th floor. We would definitely stay here again.

Television

It would have been good to have a paper with instructions. Television was difficult to work & we had to ask for help. We only were able to use tv in living room. We left a day early & we had to ask for check out instructions. That could have been on papers with instructions in the condo. It was nicely furnished with everything we needed.

Great vacation

Our condo was very nice. I liked the key entry except for at night after we were inside for the night I couldn't tell if the door was locked or not. A dead bolt lock would be nice. The bathroom off the first bedroom the shower curtain was too short and did not have magnets at the bottom and therefore was hard to keep in the tub to prevent water from going all over and it also sucked in so when you were showering it hugged up against you. The parking situation was a bit confusing since we checked in after the office was closed, but figured it out with help from friends. I really liked how close you were to the beach and the pool area was nice also. Overall, I would say our first experience with renting through VRBO was a success!

Not bad!

Right on the beach. Nice place, but would probably look elsewhere our next trip. When we got into bed the first night there was sand in the bed and makeup on the pillowcase. There were extra sheets but I've never stayed somewhere that the beds have been made back dirty. The elevators are very slow. Also, we had already checked in, changed and went down to the beach and when we got back someone had been in the condo to leave the welcome bag. It was odd to have it after we checked in. Nice place and probably just busy because it was 4th of July week, just not somewhere I would stay next trip.

Wonderful view, spacious & clean

My husband and 2 boys had a wonderful stay for our anniversary week. Parking was easy, elevators were quick and the property is well maintained. The beach and pool entrances are gated which is a plus. Beach is clean and beautiful with lots of shells to find. The outdoor area of the pool is mostly shaded after morning, the kids loved swimming in and out to the indoor pool area. We really enjoyed our balcony view and all the space we had inside the condo. The master bed is noisy when climbing in/out or moving around, but the beds and furniture are comfortable. Master toilet seat needs replaced and the shower head could use an upgrade. Only other complaint is the front door does not have a deadbolt or security lock. The property manager was easy to reach and very friendly/helpful when we had one small issue which they quickly resolved for us. Overall highly recommend!

Right on the beach!

This condo is right on the beach with amazing views! Despite it being a larger condo building, it was quiet. We never heard our neighbors. It is located just far enough away from the busy downtown area, yet close enough to everything. We really had a nice time and enjoyed our stay!

Very nice after Christmas vacay

The condo was lovely and decorated with all things beachy. We didn’t use the kitchen since we were there such a short time but it had everything you could possibly need. I have no complaints just observations, the bed and the couch are noisy when you get up from them and the lounge chairs on the balcony have a bit of wear and tear. We absolutely enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.

We Didn't Want to Leave; We Want to Come Back

We've stayed in quite a few condos over the years, and this condo was absolutely just what we wanted. The layout was excellent. The furnishings comfortable and eye-appealing. This condo had all that we needed to provide a fantastic stay. The view from the balcony was excellent. We could see dolphins playing right in front of our eyes. The kitchen was well-laid out. It was easy to get onto the beach, and the elevator was working well. It was quiet and relaxing; clean and lovely, and I am missing it already.
