Great price!

Updates throughout, convenient to everything. The host, Megan, was so easy to communicate with and even allowed us to check in early. This was our first time staying across the street from the beach, and the walk was super easy. Price can't be beat.

Family Vacation

My family and I had a great vacation in Gulf shores. This property is located only a short walk across the street to the beach. There was great communication. Anytime I had a question, they were quick to respond. This property is also a quick drive to all things happening in Gulf Shores! Highly recommend.

Family

Phenomenal ! Truly exceeded our expectations, You know when you are in place as a guest and you instantly know you are a “get their cash and get them out guest” This is NOT that condo. My Family loved all the small details packed into this Condo, from the beautiful artwork, the board games for the rainy days. The extra plush bedding and plenty of extra blankets. I felt like the owner went above and beyond to make our stay feel easy and welcoming! It’s the extras that count and make a worlds of difference and this condo hit that mark 100% !!! 10/10

This place is 10 out of 10. The location is wonderful. Just a very short stroll to the beach and our favorite restaurants. The condo was immaculate. Very clean and had some of the best and most comfortable beds that we’ve stayed in. Megan the host, has been very helpful with recommendations, and great communication when we were scheduling our stay. I would recommend this to any of our family and friends going down to Gulf Shores. We will definitely be back again.
