Perfect, perfect, perfect!

Our stay at Stella Maris was absolutely perfect! We've never found a more beautiful and comfortable condo, since we have been going to OBA now for 8 years. Everything from the decor to the bunk beds to the very well stocked kitchen to the best tasting water from the fridge...Stella gave our family the best vacation yet! Cherie the owner, is so sweet and gave us the best service! We can't wait to come back next year!

Bill- thank you for your great review of Stella Maris- I am so happy to hear you had a 5 star experience!

AMAZING experience

The property was AMAZING and we will definitely be back again! The location was amazing, the view = amazing, the condo = amazing! Cherie was a delight to work with and we will stay in touch even after our visit to the condo. One of our best vacations yet! We have gone to the Gulf Shores for many years and this surpassed our expectations. The condo building was also great, no long lines for elevators and loved the reserved covered parking just steps from the elevator. Due to jelly fish a few days we also spend a good amount of time at the pool and that was very nice as well. We will be back!

Unforgettable Oasis!!

Our Orange Beach condo stay was a genuinely exceptional experience. From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the condo's immaculate cleanliness and inviting ambiance, which made our daughters feel right at home. The comfortable beds and well-maintained furniture granted us peaceful nights' sleep. Its prime location at OBA and reserved parking provided added convenience. The breathtaking beachfront view and easy walk to the beach was the perfect backdrop for our unforgettable stay. The Premier Host, Cherie, was a pleasure to do business with and you can tell she takes pride in ensuring her guests have a great experience. We can't wait to return to the beautiful Stella Maris!

Clean, Prompt & Courteous!

After vacationing for MANY years, I can say this is the very first time I have ever stayed in a condo where I didn’t have to go through and clean it prior to enjoying it! It was immaculate! Cleanliness is priority to me when vacationing and I am so grateful to the owners for making it a priority for their guest! There were a few times during our stay that I needed to communicate with the owners and you will NEVER find a more kind and understanding owner then Cherie. Her promptness to respond was extremely efficient and helpful. Thank you for a wonderful week.

Excellent Condo

Our stay at Stella Maris was such a relaxing get-away. The condo is beautifully decorated and very clean. The furniture is so nice and we feel this is an upscale condo. The bedding is beautiful and clean along with two excellent mattresses which provide for restful nights. The location is perfect and so close to the ocean. We loved sitting in exquisite patio furniture from the chairs, table and the lovely sofa. The chairs are high and visitors have a great view. No peeking through the railings. The owners are the BEST and so delightful to deal with. They truly want their guests to enjoy their condo. We will be returning ( The Lord willing ) to this same condo!!!! Love it!!!

Stairway to Heaven

We just came home from a wonderful two weeks, staying at the beautiful Stella Maris condo. My husband and I have stayed in many VRBO's, in many cities and this is the most well-kept, well-equipped, well-appointed vacation rental we have ever rented. It is also the cleanest I've every been to. Usually, I spend our first day or two (or three) re-cleaning to bring things up to par ~ this is the first time I spent the first day of our vacation...on vacation! Nothing in the description of this condo was an over-sell. In fact, truly, our expectations were exceeded big time! Every picture on this listing is an accurate photo; NO surprises! The beach is beautiful, the pool was beautiful....Thank you so much, Ryan and Cherie for sharing this gem with us!

Lovely Stella Maris

We just got home from our vacation in the lovely Stella Maris condo. I cannot say enough good things about this amazing place. We have stayed in the Admirals quarters building many times but no other condo compares. This place is beautifully decorated in tasteful decor. Homey and comfortable furnishings with all the extra touches. Cherie, the owner is amazing. She is responsive to requests and questions like no other owner I’ve ever dealt with. Ladies she has us covered!!! Makeup mirror, comfy throw blankets/pillows, scent diffusers, sound machines and extra charging units for all your electronics. The kitchen is also more than adequately stocked. We didn’t want to leave. Love! Love! Love, Stella Maris. We will be back!

We had an amazing stay! The condo was exactly as described—clean, spacious, beautifully decorated, and perfect for our family. The location was fantastic with easy beach access, and we loved spending time both at the beach and relaxing back at the condo. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were comfortable, and everything was thoughtfully maintained. Communication with the host was excellent from start to finish. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful beach getaway!

Escape from the grind and Getaway………

Fantastic home away from home. The accommodations were even better than described. You literally feel at home as soon as you arrive. The interior is very well done and gives you a sense of place to relax. Great access to the beach and lots of things to see and do. Exactly what I needed to do at exactly the right time. The owners are wonderful and I am grateful for the opportunity to enjoy their place. Glenn A Tregre Looking forward to my next next visit!
