Beach view was between two buildings but adequate and shown in picture. Great value and location. Loved being able to go right to semi-private beach. Great and easy checkin and check out.

Thank you for your review! We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay and are already planning to come back next year. We look forward to welcoming you again!
The description was very accurate for the property. Wonderful location on the beach. The pool is aost fully in thr shade around 3 PM so it was still slightly cool for my taste but others enjoyed the water. Probably wont make a difference later in the season when it's warmer. We had an issue with the Dish network access but the manager worked untilnit was resolved.

It was our pleasure to host you, and we’re glad you found the condo to be a great value and cozy. We hope to welcome you back for another beachside stay soon!
The location to the beach was great. The parking was very tight, especially with a bigger vehicle.

Thank you for sharing your feedback on your stay at Sundial 1C. We provide a starter kit of toiletries and paper products, details of which are included in our check-in information. Our only requests for guests are to clean and store all dishes, dispose of all garbage, leave used towels and washcloths in the appropriate rooms, and leave the beds unmade.
The first week I was there, family was with me. The next 3 weeks, I was by myself. I had the best time while staying in this condo. It was my home away from home for a month. It had everything I needed and couldn’t have felt more at home. Walks on the beach everyday with shell hunting. It was so nice to have carts to use while unloading and then loading the car, with use of the elevator. Enough parking for guests was a big plus. I would love to book again and for sure will! Thank you!!!

We would be delighted to welcome you back again in the future!
Elevator was out of order. My husband was recovering from a torn hamstring and two flights of stairs was difficult!!

We’re very sorry to hear about your experience and truly apologize for the inconvenience caused by the elevator being out of service during your stay. We understand how challenging that must have been, especially with your husband recovering from an injury. Unfortunately, elevator maintenance is managed by the building and was outside of our control, but we completely understand your frustration. We appreciate your feedback and hope you’ll consider staying with us again under better circumstances.

Different Condo then we originally booked
The original condo we booked was said to be uninhabitable, so about 3 hours before we arrived we were told that we would be staying at another condo nearby! The floor was sticky at the condo we were reassigned to. We had to wash it so we didn’t stick to the floor!

We apologize for the last-minute change and any inconvenience it caused. We appreciate your feedback and will address the floor issue with our cleaning team. Thank you for your patience, and we hope to host you again in the future.
The remodel of the unit was beautiful and the place was very clean. I was disappointed with the layout. The secondary bedroom, the room with the two double beds, had a view and a private bath. I understand why they have it this way; it is the bigger of the two rooms so they can accommodate more people. I was just expecting my husband and I to have a private bath etc. I would suggest a new mattress on the king bed and shelving in the secondary bathroom. Overall it was a good stay.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your vacation experience with us. It's wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the property, and we will assess the mattress to assure we provide comfort in all areas.
Overall the place did the job.
Pros: The location could not be better. We loved being able to use the private entrance to the beach. It was quiet and we didn’t hear much of the neighbors. There is an elevator that we used to get our luggage up to the first floor. The AC cooled the condo off so fast once we got it turned on and it stayed cool the whole time. There are plenty of pots and pans to use. Walmart delivers to the condo. The bathroom in the double bedroom has a giant area to get ready in. There is a store right across the street that carries just about everything you might need or maybe forgot on your Walmart order and has the nicest people working there. We LOVED the big deck. We sat out there for coffee in the morning, and we were out there reading books in the evening. It is big and very nice.
The cons: The stove needs to be replaced, it’s barely working and hard to cook food on it. The beds are hard as a rock. There were clumps of hair everywhere and dirty towels in the shower when we arrived. The small hallway shower wasn’t used much because the shower head can’t be adjusted and the shower itself barely fits adults in it.
We would stay here again! The pros very much outweigh the cons!

Thank you for taking the time to review your vacation with us. We appreciate the feedback and will share it with our team to address the issues.
We really enjoyed our stay at this condo in Gulf Shores! It was great being right on the beach. Our only complaint is that the icemaker on the fridge didn't work and the filtered water on the fridge barely came out. We did let management know right away, and they did offer to come take a look which we declined just because we didn't want people coming in and out during our vacation. Communication was great. I could mention a couple of very small things if I wanted to be extremely picky, but overall, this place was great and I would recommend it!
