Everything about the property was absolutely amazing!! the view is to die for directly on the beach, easy check in and check out and the condo was exactly as pictured equipped with everything you would need!
The balcony was very large and enjoyed sitting out there. We didn’t use the pool. The king size bed was very comfortable. Plenty of towels. Kitchen was nice. Enjoyed our stay. We will definitely come back!

This property was right on the ocean with beautiful views. Definitely a place we would stay again. In a great location to everything you need or want. If i had to say anything a blow dryer would been nice. We flew in so I didn't pack one.

Great Stay
Great at home feel. Could not have asked for better beds, decor, kitchen supplies, or outside ocean view. We had many hours of R and R. Not sure of others but this is a gem!!! We will be back.

The condo was well stocked and the view was beautiful!! We enjoyed sitting on the balcony in the mornings and watching the people down on the beach. The weight room was nice too and not crowded at all.

Wonderful beach trip
What a wonderful time at the beach for my teenage son, a friend of his and I. The condo was perfect and as described in the pictures. So convienant, pleasant experience, relaxing trip with out all of the hustle and bustle of all the large crowds, pool was perfect as well. Just can not see us staying anywhere else but here for the next time in Gulf Shores. Thank you so much for the much needed time away.

Love Island Royale and this condo was beautiful and well equipped. My only suggestion would be to have keyless entry to eliminate the need to go to an office to checkin and get a key and also to not have to deal with keys during the week that we stayed. But we would definitely rent this unit again!

My family and I recently stayed at Island Royale. It never disappoints me. The condo is just like it is advertised. There were 3 adults and 2 children ages 8 & 11. We all had plenty of space. It was a great get away.

Thank you for your 5 star review! We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay, and we hope to see you again soon!
This place was definitely relaxing. Everything was clean and as posted, even a few updates from the pictures. The check in process was a little much compared to other places before you went and I felt stressed that I missed something and they would take the place away. (Make sure you see the paperwork within 24 hours) Everyone was very nice in person. Definitely book directly through them and save a couple hundred bucks! Would stay again!

Under construction...
We were not told that the pools and hot tubs were all closed and that only one elevator was working. Construction was happening on the property which added challenges too. If we knew what was happening at the property. We could have adjusted expectations or changed reservations. The space is managed by Poole Vacation Rentals.

We are so sorry you did not see the disclosure listed on the property info that stated that the area is still under property construction due to Hurricane Sally that hit this area. We do hope you enjoyed your stay despite the reconstruction
