View was great and so was the value. The show head in the master bathroom should be replaced. The water pressure is exceptional, but with the current showerhead can be painful. Some of the patio furniture should probably be replaced. We will definitely book again.

We had a wonderful time. Our only complaint (and the reason we didn’t give 5 stars) was the bed. That was the hardest bed i have ever slept on. (What little sleep i got). Not even a mattress. It felt more like a piece of plywood. I went to WalMart and purchase a 2 inch foam padding so I could sleep. Everything else was great. But that mattress has to be replaced. Honestly. It may keep us from booking there again. But everything else was great.

Very nice great location. 9' ceilings with crown molding throughout. 8' doors too. Very nice apartment, great water pressure and great air conditioning. Overall, one of the best vacations we have had, we will be back. I would highly recommend this property for a great relaxing vacation.

Location perfect! Unit needs some TLC.

Our stay was just what we needed. The location was fantastic and it was an easy trip out to the beach. The entire facility and this unit in particular needs quite a bit of updating and care. The unit, which was clearly beautiful in its prime, has been neglected and has not been cleaned well in a very long time. If that doesn't matter to the guest, it has the potential to be a great place.

Last minute getaway

The condo itself is great the issue is the master bathroom. I don’t know how long that stain has been there but it’s seriously time to get a new bath tub, and the rack that is hanging in there was rusted and from the looks of it, it’s been like that for a while. How in the world did the cleaning crew not notice this? It time to upgrade the tub, and maybe find.a new cleaning crew

Love this property

My second time staying at the Island Royale. I appreciate the security (always friendly) and the lady who cleans the pool and the public areas. Would prefer a keypad like is present in many units. Stopping by the office on the way in and on the way out is inconvenient, especially with the road construction. I do appreciate that Brett/Robinson is accessible anytime by phone or text. King mattress/foundation in this unit are probably due for replacement. Would definitely stay here again - as a woman traveling with her mother, the security is a big plus, AND it’s just a short walk to Bahama Bob’s! When I stayed at this property last year with girlfriends, we also walked to the Steamer, the Hangout, and the Pink Pony.

Return trip!

I stayed in this condo last year with 4 girlfriends and we loved it. This year, my husband and I booked the same condo as we had two friends with us, both recently widowed. The condo was clean, the kitchen stocked with everything we could possibly need to cook any meal and the balcony had a view that was second to none. So close to all activities like the Hangout and souvenir shops. Weather was perfect. My only suggestion might be a slightly larger TV as it was a bit difficult for all of us to watch but we only turned the TV on once so it wasn’t a huge issue for us. The condo is in front of the elevator door so super easy in and out. Condo is also quiet and we never heard any foot traffic outside the room. Regular coffee maker, not a “pod” type but not a problem. Plenty of hot water for showers and decent water pressure. Would certainly recommend, especially to a couple with kids as the master bedroom has a comfortable king and the second bedroom has two twin beds. A hard combination to find. Great place to stay!

Thank you for sharing your positive experience at the condo! It's wonderful to hear that you and your husband enjoyed your stay, especially after having a great experience with your girlfriends the previous year. I'm glad to know that the condo was clean and well-stocked, providing everything you needed for cooking meals. The balcony with its exceptional view sounds like a highlight of your stay. I appreciate your suggestion regarding a slightly larger TV, although it didn't pose a major issue for you since you only turned it on once. It's great that the condo's location in front of the elevator made it easy for you to come and go, and the quietness of the room allowed for a peaceful stay. The availability of a regular coffee maker, plenty of hot water, and decent water pressure added to the comfort of your stay. Thank you for recommending the condo, especially for couples with kids, as the comfortable king bed in the master bedroom and two twin beds in the second bedroom make it an ideal choice. It sounds like you had a great time, and I hope you have many more enjoyable experiences in the future. If there's anything else you'd like to share or if there's anything else I can assist you with, please let me know. I'm here to help!

Great location for all ages

Five Vintage ladies took a girls trip to Gulf Shores and stayed at Island Royale. Our rooms were immaculate and the kitchen well stocked. Comfortable beds and unbeatable view. If I had one small issue: the condo was overstocked with furniture. Large pieces and decor that were fine with us but might be a lot for a family with small children. My husband and I along with another couple stayed there last May and have already made our reservations for this September. Thank you to everyone that helped make our Trip a success!

Condo clean and fine. Updates needed to decor.

Displeased with Brett Robinson as property manager. Unclear on payment procedures. No contact from Brett Robinson until noon on day of check in. Check in was unorganized and unprofessional. Payment couldn’t be confirmed, I reminded worker to scan drivers license, keys could not be found quickly, my questions could not be answered with certainty. It is highly unlikely that I will use Brett Robinson in the future. I will continue to use VRBO.

Best family vacation ever!!!

This was our first family vacation to the beaches of Gulf Shores and our stay at this condo helped to make it one of our best vacations ever! It is beautifully furnished and the kitchen is well-stocked. We enjoyed our coffee on the balcony overlooking the ocean each morning. The twin beds were great for our daughters and it was so great to have 2 bathrooms. We were so very comfortable and the washer and dryer were an added bonus! The condo is right on the beach and close to all the nearby amenities! We had such a great time and hope to return again each year!

WELCOME to Gulf Shores! We are so happy to have played a part in making your first visit here memorable. We agree, sipping coffee and watching the beach come alive in the morning is one of the best things to do! A great way to start the day. We look forward to seeing you again on our sugar white sandy beaches.
