Location to the beach was great and what we wanted. The condo needs work, several areas were broken or falling off (master shower handle, master towel bar missing, baseboards have mildew, shower had mildew). Great kitchen and utensils though.

Loved the condo and the view . So beautiful. The only 2 minor issues were the sauna was not operational and the tub in the master bedroom leaked some water into the closet at the foot of the tub. As a result we were not able to take additional baths or use the whirlpool feature. Like I said overall my family and I loved the condo. God Bless

The views were gorgeous- the place was clean. We were told no beach chairs were included so we brought ours but when we got there tge laundry room was packed full of beach chairs, umbrellas, toys, and a large tent. They also said no hair dryers & there was one in every room. The main tv had a huge black strip down the center I sent a picture to host. Although i didn’t expect a new tv they never even replied to my text. Overall it was a nice place the location was great!

We loved our stay. It was so inspiring. Lived the full glass windows, the master suite, all of the rooms were beautiful. We definitely wood come back. Loved the access to the beach and that they had canopies and beach umbrellas and four chairs. We wished we could have extended stay it was so tranquil. The management company was so responsive. Cannot say enough about the condo.

I had just lost my mom so I was looking for a peaceful escape and this unit provided all of that. The color scheme, the furniture, the king size bed, made me feel so relaxed and comfortable. The view from the balcony was amazing.

Assuming that you are meaning the Management Co host --ok - not particularly welcoming --busy with multiple check ins - don't recall her even saying anything to us. One elevator down so long line. Unit clean and well appointed. One of the most nicely decorated places we have stayed. Photos do it justice. Comfortable in side and out (Submitted a few things to management co. on check out day that should probably be watched ...lint trap dryer to outside seems very full dryer doesn't dry well and is a fire hazard, water filter on fridge says it needs a new filter, pillows not real comfortable, front bathroom toilets run after flushing.) Elevators out one day - would have been nice to have a more timely communication of what was happening.

Excellent!

We have stayed in several other condos in Gulf Shores over the years but this one by far was the best. Great location to local restaurants and attractions, condo had everything we needed for our stay, plus some. Great view off the large balcony with plenty of seating. Kitchen was very well stocked. Would definitely stay again.
