Second stay at #101 at Sunrise Village

Very comfortable, clean and with all the amenities but not glitzy. An old-time type of beach apartment that's hard to find nowadays. #101 is up front on the Gulf on the first floor with just a few steps down to the beach. Open the sliding glass doors to the private front porch and you can hear the ocean throughout the apartment. So relaxing1

Very old but location is nice

The location is great, right on the beach. The balcony looking onto the beach is beautiful but I wouldn’t stay for a week in this place. It’s very outdated and could use some upgrades. It also had a lot of stuff left from previous renters that weren’t cleaned up. We weren’t staying long so we didn’t contact the host but they did tell us to if it wasn’t cleaned properly.

Perfection

The only reason I gave the communication with property manager 3 stars is because I called a day or two before we left (12 hour drive) to check and make sure everything was okay and there was no answer and I emailed and never got an answer BUT when we arrived everything was fine no issues at all and check in was super easy! The property location exceeded our expectations and we absolutely loved our trip! It was so nice being close to the beach with little boys so we could walk back to the room no problem when they got cold or tired. Would definitely stay again and again here! Thank you for sharing your space with us and making the trip the best 4th birthday trip for our little!

Best view of the ocean anywhere in Gulf Shores

You wont find a better view of the ocean than what this little condo provides no where else on Gulf Shores and the ocean view from the balcony was just wonderful to sit on and watch the sunrise and sunset every morning and we even spotted some dolphins . Just know ahead of time it is tiny in square footage , has a vintage vibe in the living area , the main bedrooms bed was much more comfortable than the other but having a tv in each room was a great bonus . Only thing I would change would be to change out the living room wicker couch and chairs to me it appeared very vintage and was uncomfortable .

Bedrooms small with size of beds that are in there. Door would be nice if updated to a keycode type. Outside deck needs something under upper deck so people on lower deck doesn't get showered by sand and other debris when people are moving around up there. Other than that great to walk out right onto the beach and have fun.

Update in need

This is a great location and a decent price, but there comes a time where you need to make some changes. The furniture is old and dirty. Doors will not open or close properly. And it needs a good deep cleaning. Probably won’t come back for a while.

Sunrise Village is wonderful

We loved staying at S7nrise Village. We were in one of the end units, facing the beach. There are only 4 units that actually face the beach, and these are the best. Although the condo was older, and not fancy, we loved it. It was very relaxed and homey. Right out the front door, you go down a short flight of stairs, straight to the sands of the beach. The only thing that was not our favorite was the pool. Although it was very clean, it was so small you could barely turn around, so you couldn't really swim comfortably if there were many people there. Also, the only chairs were metal, so they were very hot to sit on. But overall, we loved the property and would definitely stay there again.

We loved our stay at Sunrise village! It was everything we had expected. We had a 2 year old and it was her first trip and it was the perfect place to stay especially with children. The beach area wasn't too crowded and it was right on the sand so it was very convenient with nap and potty time. The room was very clean and had plenty of towels, wash clothes, etc. Also every morning and evenings we could see Dolphins while sitting on our front porch so the view was perfect. The only down side was that the second bedroom didn't seem to get a/c in the room and the condo sleeps 6 so I feel like it should of came with two parking passes since most cars only fit 5 but it only came with one and once we arrive to check in we got charged extra for having two vechiles. But overall our trip was great and I would definitely recommend to stay in this condo.

Spring Break 2021

We’ve visited this property many times in the past few years due to location & being right on the beach and have always been pleased, but it’s time for an update on the interior & some deep-deep cleaning & repairs. The linens were stained & smelled stale, the couch/chair cushions & arms of couch/chair were worn & stained/dirty, bathroom door wouldn’t lock, tile cracked & pillows/bedding needs to be replaced. It just didn't feel clean & relaxing at all. Balcony view is great, but the chairs on the balcony need to be replaced or repainted because they were dirty as well. At this point, I would not recommend unless updates were made.

Great location but disappointing inside.

I feel like the reviews on this place were grievously misleading. Yes, the location is fantastic. Yes, it's wonderful to be right on the beach. But that is truly the only thing positive we have to say about this place. There were just four of us, two adults and our two kids, and we knew it would be small but it was WAY too small for four, so I'm not sure where the "can sleep six comfortably" comes from. No closet space, which means your luggage has nowhere to be but in the common living area. Everything felt dirty and sticky, no matter how many times I swept the floors. The furniture is SO UNCOMFORTABLE and disgusting. The couch has a sheen of dead skin cells and years of other people's sunscreen and sweat. Ladies, there's only enough hot water to shave one leg, not both, so choose wisely. Gentleman, this place is great if you like rustic camping. The reviews boasted a "comfortable balcony", but for four people, it was just not comfortable. There was mold on the ceilings and a dingy smell of old urine when we arrived. Ripped kitchen curtains and cracked and broken floor tiles. We loved the beach, we will never stay at this property again.

Having a private balcony on a low density complex is rare. But this place has just that. The inside of the unit is a little bit dated, but who cares it gets the job done. The kitchen works great. The sleeping arrangements were just fine and the bathroom and shower worked great. Landing and support officer reports that the perfect access to the beach. The restaurant at ice cream store as well as the convenience store right across the street is so great. And it is only about a 35 minute walk down to the hangout area.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re glad you enjoyed the private balcony and the low-density setting—it really does make for a more relaxing and unique stay. It’s great to hear the unit met your needs comfortably and that the kitchen, sleeping arrangements, and bathroom all worked well for your visit. We also love that you took advantage of the convenient location with easy beach access, nearby restaurants, ice cream, and shops—all within walking distance. We truly appreciate your balanced feedback about the interior and are happy it didn’t take away from your overall experience.
