Perfect beach weekend getaway

I appreciated the updated unit and the quality of the towels, bedsheets, furniture, etc. Our stay was comfortable and clean. The unit had the essentials. Getting around the condo was super easy. Gulf views were stunning, awesome beachfront. Hosts were quick to respond and so kind. Perfect for two people, could add another 2 and not feel crowded. Only rec I have for the host is to have a dining table out on the balcony to eat meals. :) Highly recommend to stay here.

Nice Place to Stay

Three of us stayed for a week at the end of May. The unit was very clean and comfortable. Main bathroom is quite small but is nice to have the sink outside of the toilet and shower area. Well equipped for an extended stay. Beautiful view of the beach and water. We spent a lot of time on the patio and found that the pool area can get quite noisy especially when people decide that everyone needs to hear their music as well as having to smell the smoke from a unit below us (which clearly wasn’t cigarettes). Ty and Merrill were great to work with.

Great Stay

We were in town to take a family member who has recently been put in a memory care facility to multiple doctor appointments each day. After running around all day it was so nice to come back to this wonderful condo. We sat on the deck and enjoyed our view as we made many phone calls to family members with daily updates. Condo is also located close to many wonderful restaurants!!! I recommend Bahama Bobs which is just down the street. The host was very friendly and helpful when we had questions.

Hot 4th of July Vacation!

We had a very relaxing stay Surfside Shores! The condo was everything it was said to be and had everything we needed! The quick beach access was probably the best we’ve ever had staying at the beach for years. The beds were very comfortable and highly recommend this condo for a vacation Gulf Shores!! Thanks to the owners for allowing us to be their guests!

Beautiful views and relaxing!

Property is very well maintained and very clean. Ty and Meryl were very accommodating and let us check in a couple hours early. The view of the Gulf from the balcony is amazing! The beach area, pools, and BBQ areas were not crowded and were nice and clean. The property and surrounding area was quiet and we had a nice, relaxing time. I would rent this property again in the future.

Great Stay

Very enjoyable stay. The condo was very clean, the bed was very comfortable, the check-in process was easy, and our host (Meryl) was very responsive and easy to contact. The condo was minimally stocked (no condiments, laundry soap, storage bags {ziplocks}, etc.) but I'm sure it isn't set up for long-term stays. I would definitely stay here again - we enjoyed ourselves! The weather wasn't cooperative - hurricane effect winds and rain - but nothing anyone can do about that.

Nice Property with a great view!

We really enjoyed our stay at this property and would rent again. Check in process was super easy. Plenty of room for 2 adults and 2 kids. Fairly quiet area but could have been the time of year. Condo was nice and clean. Only suggestion would be to have the shower heads updated. Hosts were very nice and responsive :)
