Great place to stay! This condo did not require you to pack up everything but the kitchen sink or spend another 100 on arrival for supplies. We appreciated that this host provided beach towels and plenty of trash bags and toilet paper for a family of 8. Best stocked condo for a family our size that we have ever stayed at. Thanks!

We spent the majority of our time at the condo on the balcony, enjoying the stunning sunset and sunrise over the water. The condo was clean, as listed, and perfect for my husband and I.

We had a great stay at this condo with 4 adults and 3 kids. Location is perfect as it’s walking distance to many different places. Having the market across the street was perfect for items we needed to get last second. We did grocery delivery from Walmart and shoppers were able to bring it all up on a cart and leave outside the door. The views were great from the balcony. We had everything we needed in the kitchen. Space was perfect. The only thing that was slightly annoying at times was the elevator as there are only 2 for the entire property but we never had to wait any amount of time that made us regret staying there. We enjoyed our time in Gulf Shores!

Winter at the beach!

We had an exceptional experience at the Thirsty Turtle in GS. 18th floor, high above the beach, with fantastic views to the east and south. Well-stocked kitchen. Comfy beds. Several big screen TVs. Sea-n-Suds (perhaps our favorite restaurant in GS) is right next door, Waffle House is just across the street. Amy (our landlord) was very easy to communicate with, and most responsive. We definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for comfort, convenience, a great view. Enjoy!
