Highly recommend this condo for family stays in Gulf Shores. The unit was clean and well stocked. The view from the sliders was beautiful as well. Communication with the owner couldn't have been better as she was timely and friendly in her responses. The building was quiet and clean. You do need to drive for food, but if you're looking for something relaxing and away from the noise this is the perfect spot!

The host was very responsive and helpful. The condo was great. The view from the condo was amazing. We watched the sun rise and set from our balcony everyday. We saw dolphins several mornings from the balcony. I would definitely recommend staying at this location and we will stay here again in the future. Thank you for a great place to stay.

Our stay could not have been any better!! smooth and seamless check-in and check out making it very easy for a family with very young kids. Kathi made everything so accessible and convenient for us. A very clean condo where we didn’t need much at all. I would absolutely stay there again and would recommend others staying in the Gulf Shores area to stay there!

About the host

Hosted by Kathi Heard

Host profile image
We purchased this 2 bedroom/2 bath oceanfront condo in November 2016 and it truly is my dream come true! Previously, we owned a 1/1 condo across the road from the beach for five years, but as our family grew, our space needed to keep pace! This picture is my first grandson who is 7 years old and our second grandson who is 4 years old along with our 17 year old granddaughter. We are so blessed!

Why they chose this property

1100 sq feet of living area with a beautiful view! Clean! The unique balcony includes choice to open doors to a beautiful unobstructed view of the Gulf of Mexico or if it's a bit too hot (or a bit too cold) you can close them and still enjoy a magnificent on the beach experience! This unit is literally steps from the beach! (see first picture)

Imagine sitting on the balcony, in the living room/dining area or the kitchen and you have such a GREAT view of the Gulf of Mexico with delightful dolphins on to view on an almost a daily basis.

Owner managed to ensure you top rate and personal service! I want you to WANT to return if at all possible!

Convenience stores, Restaurants and Ice Cream Shops nearby! Equipment rental nearby.

Spacious Gulf Front condo, east corner, fully furnished, 3rd floor unit (1st Floor is a parking garage) 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. King sized bed in each bedroom, pull out sofa bed in good sized living room and day bed on the balcony comfortably sleeps 6. Freshly painted, nicely decorated and inviting with tile and laminate flooring, full kitchen and laundry room.

There are 3 tv's (2 Smart), 3 DVD players with games, puzzles and books to enjoy! Free WIFI available!

Any dates other than these you can purchase additional passes for $30.00 each directly from Owner.

The unit isn't completely updated, but it is clean and affordable!

What makes this property unique

The encloseable balcony doors are WONDERFUL! You can open them and feel like you are literally sitting on the beach (minus the sand) OR close them if the weather is too hot or cold and still have that amazing Gulf front view! The daybed on the balcony is my favorite place to sleep with doors cracked open for the wonderful wave sound!

I strive to make your condo stay the BEST possible by personally managing the unit. Yes it does take a lot of time but the Rental agencies are SO IMPERSONAL and have 1000's to choose from. I give you my contact information to text or call 24/7 with any questions or problems.

Restaurants, Convenience Stores, Ice Cream Shops nearby!

Fun Fact 1: 99.9% of the shells in the condo have been collected along the Gulf Shores Beach!

Fun Fact 2: Balcony is whimsically decorated in what I call my "tacky touristy" style.
