We stayed for spring break and could not ask for a better location. The condo had everything we needed and amazing views! Will for sure be coming back!
The only bad part was oven did not work and never fixed while there so had to eat out more than planned.

Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the construction and the inconvenience with the balcony, and we appreciate your understanding. We're glad to hear you still had a good stay and hope to welcome you back for a more peaceful experience in the future!
Stayed several times at this unit. New owner. There were issues with the ice makers, no washcloths and a small BBQ pit on the balcony that we could not use because it was locked and after calling found out it was for the owners to use. Good stay overall.

Thank you for taking the time to post a review. We take pride in our properties and the services we provide, and we are so glad you enjoyed your stay.
We are looking forward to having you as a guest again in the future.
We loved our stay in this unit. It was beautiful and stocked very well. Our family loved being able to spend time together. Grandparents, aunt & uncle, and mom, dad and the kids! Our only complaint about this trip was with the elevators in the building. They were not working properly when we arrived and quit working a few days later with no communication (signs, text) from Beach Ball Properties. We had to go down stairs from the 19th story with all of our beach gear. After calling we couldn’t get a clear answer of when the elevators would be working again. That was highly inconvenient.

Exactly what we wanted!
Our "gathered" family (coming from Indiana, Maine, Florida and Mississippi) met at Colonnades 1902 and it was perfect!! Three bedrooms with each having their own bathroom was a plus! A large balcony and large windows that allowed us to enjoy amazing views of the water ... and a lovely full moon during our time there! Every small appliance you could think of in the kitchen and fully stocked kitchen (pans and dishes). A coffee maker with a small collection of coffee, sugar and creamer (not any cooking seasoning though). A nice laundry room! And the Beachball property management team were very responsive in any of my messages! Not only responsive, but wonderfully pleasant! The condo was clean and well presented. The complex was not busy when we were there, but what we saw was a safe and quiet environment. Each condo we walked / drove by had security and ours were very friendly. Although I said security, it felt like a very safe area. Many places to eat and the usual beach shopping with an amazing and active outlet mall in Foley, AL (about 20 minutes drive and which we visited twice!). We made a lot of family core memories at Colonnades 1902!

Beachy Keen!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Perfect Multi-Family Getaway with Stunning Views!
Our group of two families (6 adults and 2 kids) had an absolutely incredible stay at this condo. The space is fantastic—incredibly roomy and designed perfectly so that a large group like ours never felt cramped.
**What we loved most:**
* **The Bedroom Setup:** This was a massive win for us. Every single bedroom featured a comfortable king bed and its own private bathroom. No one had to compromise on privacy or argue over who got the "better" room.
* **The Kitchen:** It was fully and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed to cook and serve meals for 8 people.
* **The Views:** Simply beautiful. Waking up to that view every morning was worth the trip alone.
**Outstanding Accessibility Feature:**
A major highlight for our family was the ground-level beach access. If you have someone in your party with limited mobility, this condo is a fantastic choice. They were able to easily access the beach through the parking garage, completely bypassing the stairs from the pool level. It made beach days stress-free for everyone.
**One Minor Note:**
The only small critique we have is that we wish beach towels and a beach chair service had been included in the rental.
Overall, this is an exceptional property. It checked every single box for our multi-family trip, and we would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommended!
