Wonderful!

Easy and straight to the point booking. Nothing beats being able to take everyone on vacation, not have to worry about leaving fur babies at home, and having some of the best views in a beachfront condo. Front, back and side views…incredible! Thank you for sharing your home!

Great place to stay

This is a beautiful condo in a great location with awesome views. Overall the experience was great. There’s not alot of space to walk your dog immediately in front of the condo but just across the highway, down the street, there’s a nice neighborhood. Perfect for dog walking and getting their energy out! I appreciate that there is not a weight restriction on the dogs you can bring. So many condos advertise ‘pet friendly’ but if your pet is over 20 lbs it’s no longer ‘friendly’ for you. Will definitely stay here again and have let other family members know about it as well!

Great place to stay with your family!

We loved the location of the condo. It wasn’t super crowded, but was still right down the road from the main part of Gulf Shores. We enjoyed bringing out 14 year old son and our less than 10 pound dog with us. The rooms were nice and the master bed was phenomenal. We enjoyed the balcony as well. Check-in process was very smooth, but did not receive an email for the check-out process. I did email Mr. Lance and received an email back rather quickly for a Sunday morning. We will be booking here again in the future!

Just what we needed

This property was as advertised. The property was in very good condition with updated kitchen appliances and all necessary utensils. There are also grills on the property if you want to cook out, which we did. There are tv's in each of the two bedrooms in case you want to break away from the group and the master bath has a jetted tub(we didn't use it but looked good) This is right on the beach as stated which was great. There are also pools on the property (the indoor one was sketchy in my opinion)in case you want a break from the salt and the sand. This property is also close to restaurants and shops which was really convenient. Overall, a really good stay; we'd come back.

This is a great condo. The views are spectacular as is the location. Only reason for 4 stars is the mattresses need replacing. If we slept better it would have been perfect!

Great place to stay if you have pets.

Overall it was a nice place to stay. A few things that weren’t the greatest, first was the water pressure every 3-4 minutes the pressure would go to a trickle. I did notify the property mgmt and he said it was fixed the night before we left. Which we could tell because the next morning it was much better. Second we traveled with our fur baby and I worried all along she would bark and cause a disturbance but she did great. The first night she barked a couple of times when the elevator would land on our floor which was the 8th floor, the top floor. Maybe the elevator needs to be looked at since it does make a popping noise when it would stop on whatever floor it was supposed to. The bad thing is the main bedroom is right across from the entry door so you do hear a lot of the comings and goings of the other on your floor and again can hear the elevator. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything needed. And was an awesome kitchen at that. I have it five stars on everything except the cleanliness. I think the people who clean could do a better job. But that is my opinion. We would stay there again especially since we travel with my fur baby.

About the host

Hosted by Lance & Courtney Steffek

Host profile image
We live in Gulf Shores and love the area. We have 4 children; Emma, Lachlan, Lennox and Piper that love the beach and pools. We are not far away and enjoy staying at Caribbean when other families are not enjoying it. It has been such a joy owning this unit and being able to share it with other families throughout the year. And it has been a fun journey renovating; making it a truly luxurious, high-end destination.

Why they chose this property

We like the low density of only 32 units but all the amenities of a larger complex. Also the 9' ceilings which give it a larger feel than many of the other condos in the area.

What makes this property unique

Low density with a heated salt water indoor pool, heated outdoor pool, fitness center, grill area, covered reserved parking space, and unobstructed Gulf views.
