Everything was wonderful. This is our second stay at this property and the host made sure everything was great for us. Great unit, has everything you could need in the kitchen, great AC, and the most perfect location, next to private residences and the state park, so you feel like you have the beach to yourself down the west side.

Thank you so much for staying with us again! It means a lot to have returning guests, and we’re so glad you enjoyed your second stay at A42. We’re especially happy to hear that you found the condo comfortable and well-equipped, and that the location was just what you were looking for. Being right next to the state park and private residences really does give the west end of the beach a quieter, more relaxed feel. Thank you again for choosing A42, and we hope to welcome you and your family back for a third stay!

The property was exactly as described. This made our second trip staying at Palm Beach and our 1st in this condo. It was clean, a lot of room. The only complaint would be the noise from work being done above us and on the door, no fault of the owners. Highly recommend this condo and location!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re very glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay and found the condo clean, spacious, and just as described. It’s especially nice to know that you chose Palm Beach for a second trip and enjoyed your first stay in our condo. We’re sorry the work being done above and around the building caused some noise during your stay. Unfortunately, that was outside of our control, but we certainly understand how it can be disruptive. Thank you again for choosing our condo and for the recommendation. We truly appreciate it and hope to have you back at Palm Beach again in the future!

This was our first time in Orange Beach. The condo was exactly as pictured. The pool and pool area were very clean. Just a short walk to the beach from the condo. My kids enjoyed the dvd collection provided in the guest room. Not really in a location to walk to places because of the 4 lane road. Short drive to many shops and restaurants.

We are a family of 4 with a 6 and a 8 year old and this property was perfect! We are more beach people - so the convenience of walking down stairs for sunrises, sunsets, and sitting on the beach with the smaller crowd were absolutely perfect and so easy. We swam in the pool almost every day, and it wasn’t ever very crowded or rowdy. We cooked most meals and the setup was perfect with generous pots and pans, utensils, Tupperware, bowls, etc. The DVD collection was impressive. Our kids were a little sad to see and not be at the lazy river and other amenities at the phoenix next door (we have stayed at those in the past) but this was by far the parents’ favorite stay.

The unit was well appointed with all the necessities, especially in the kitchen, living and bedroom areas. We appreciated the beach chairs left for renters. Very easy to communicate with and was very responsive. Also appreciated being right across the road from a trailhead for the wonderful miles of bike trails. Thank you for a wonderful stay
