About this property

Family-friendly Gulf-front condo with private balcony, hot tub, pool, & gym

Summary:

Island Royale P 406



The Space:

Less than a mile west of the main Gulf Shores Public Beach entrance and rising high above the Gulf of Mexico is Island Royale.



Featuring a swim-through indoor/outdoor pool, indoor and outdoor hot tubs, steam room and expansive beachfront, Island Royale is a place that encourages you to stay outdoors and take full advantage of the beautiful coastal sunshine.



Once in your condo, be sure to spend time lounging on your private balcony watching the sun rise and set peacefully over the Gulf. Rest and relax in comfort and style in your living area as you reconnect with family and friends. Your kitchen is fully equipped to prepare every meal.



Thanks to the condo's proximity to numerous restaurants (seafood, burgers, steaks, spicy Cajun cuisine and more!), save time in the kitchen and go out to eat!



After dinner, head up Hwy. 59 to Pirate's Island or The Track for an evening of miniature golf, thrilling amusement park rides and arcade fun. Or, check out some of the beach boutiques just north of the beach. Shop for that swimsuit you've been wanting at one of the giant beach stores nearby. Live entertainment can be found any time of year at places like the iconic Hangout Restaurant of Hangout Music Festival fame. Head out to the courtyard for a bubble party or to play silly games.



Your condo a few minutes' drive from Gulf State Park, where you'll find a variety of fun activities such as a nature center, a beach pavilion, a giant fishing pier that juts 1,500+ feet out into the Gulf, backcountry trails and so much more.



When you want a relaxing beach vacation that puts you near the fun of Gulf Shores' beach entertainment district, choose Island Royale. You'll be glad you did.

Beach and Gulf Shores was great. However condo needed some help. Mold on ceiling in great room and shower certain in master bath should not exist. Toaster is defective and caused smoke alarm to go off. Fauset in Master bath sink does not work for finding hot water. Should be fixed or replaced. Additionally, Master bath bathtub should be replaced due to condition and safety. Lastly not everyone knows what the P means when placed in front of room number. Thought we were staying on 4TH floor. What a surprise when found out our vision was not defective when looking out balcony and found out we were on floor above 11TH floor. Did not feel safe should electricity go off . Stairs would have a long trip down. You should identify the room height better. Some old people do not like to be at helicopter height. We do not fly very well if needed.

Thank you, William, for sharing your thoughts about your stay with us. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the beach and Gulf Shores, but we’re truly sorry to learn about the issues you encountered in the condo. Mold and maintenance concerns are not what we want our guests to experience, and we appreciate you bringing them to our attention. We take these matters seriously, and we will address the mold, the faulty toaster, and the faucet in the master bath right away. Your safety and comfort are our top priorities, and we want to ensure that everything is in perfect condition for our guests. We also understand how important it is to have clear information about the condo's location. We will work on making the room height more clearly communicated to avoid any confusion in the future. We appreciate your feedback as it helps us improve. We hope you’ll consider giving us another chance to provide you with a more comfortable stay in the future.

Relaxing and comfortable

We really enjoyed staying here. It is on the end, and we had a great view from the balcony. Communication with the property manager was great. The location is good and close to everything from places to eat to shopping. We were unable to enjoy the pool because we had so much to do but it looks so relaxing and clean. We highly reccomend this property.

I would be lying if I said this was perfect, but I do need to say that any and all issues that we had were promptly resolved. We enjoyed this location very much and we're overwhelmed by the professionalism and immediate responses when we did have issues. We stayed for six nights and it was absolutely amazing. Highly recommend to anybody and everyone. We chose to get married on the beach and we could not have picked a better place to stay at for this occasion

The pros: Location was perfect! Convenient to food and shopping. Steps from the beach. Condo was clean and had plenty of room for 4 adults and one child. Very nice having a community spot for chairs, boogie boards, and floats to be shared. Cons: Online listing and reviews did not mention the cosmetic attention this unit needed. Rusted shower curtain rod, chipped bathtubs, peeling paint, scuffs and knicks on walls, broken patio door lock, and bunkbeds so wobbly my child didn’t feel safe climbing on the top bunk.
