Loved it!

The rental was beautiful. We had a great time. We have stayed at the Beach Club many times and have never had any issues. We have also rented our condos from Keller Williams realty and they are great and very attentive. We will definitely be back and will rent from them again.

I had minor housekeeping issue. No coffee or coffee filters. Had a Keuric, no pods. One roll of toilet paper in each bathroom. 2 trash bags. We had a family of 4 adults and 3 children, we accumulate a lot of trash. I know I had a number to call housekeeping during business hours, but I think it would be more convenient to have extra and not have to call for it. The unit was very clean, and great location

Great time, great view

Pictures online truly don’t do this condo justice. The moment we walked in, we were pleasantly surprised by how spacious and comfortable everything felt. The beds were very comfortable, and even the couch exceeded our expectations. We stayed over Memorial Day weekend and unexpectedly got a front-row view of a fireworks show, which made the trip even more special. This was a last-minute booking, but it turned into a getaway our family will always remember. Thank you for such a wonderful stay!

Gulf Shores

The property was great! The beach was beautiful. The only complaints I have are some of the "updated" lights and things were difficult or not working properly. The slide doors to the balcony are difficult to open. The alarms downstairs went off almost constantly and the elevators inspections were out of date by a couple of weeks. However I would stay again, it was beautiful and the property had so much ocean view it was amazing!

Nice beach vacation

We had a nice beach vacation at the Beach Club Avalon penthouse. There was plenty of space for 4 adults, the beds were very comfortable. The elevators were very hot & uncomfortably noisy. Screaming cheerleaders at the pool at 9:45pm could be heard from the penthouse since there was a cheer camp at the resort. The TV’s took around 20 minutes to turn on the Wally service takes a long time. The A/C and ceiling fans were wonderful after a hot day on the beach. Also couldn’t figure out how to turn on shower in second bathroom with tub/shower combo. Thank you for letting us stay!

What a view!!!!

This is a beautiful view and beautiful property! It fit our family of 7 perfectly! Even though it is the penthouse, we rarely spent anytime on the elevator! It’s super fast! There were just a couple of extremely minor issues that I felt the owner would like to know. However, I didn’t receive a reply. And it’s possible she didn’t receive the text. I believe communication is a great asset for any business. We did receive an email when the water was out for a few hrs for repair. This was greatly appreciated. If renting Avalon Penthouse pack your hair dryers. 😉In a nutshell I highly recommend this property!

I booked this property based on listing description of available beds. After booking, listing was changed to delete one bed. I contacted the manager and after going back and forth on clarification she ghosted me- no effort to make it right. So we came and lo and behold the sofa bed described in the listing was not a sofa bed at all. So now we’re short two beds for our party. Upon arrival I called her about a non functioning light in a bedroom. She promised me a maintenance person the next day. No one ever showed for the duration of our stay. We thought it looked nice and clean however after a couple of days the sheets came off the bed and the comforter that was inside was filthy. Dishes were put away dirty and we had to rewash. All in all, we LOVED the beach club and the condo but management I would NOT recommend. I was deceived not once but twice and we had a bad experience trying to sleep our party with not enough beds. Just don’t do it. We have stayed at the beach club several times and there are better options than dealing with this management company. This listing cannot be trusted. I gave every opportunity for her to fix or help but was totally ignored.

Response from VrboOwner on 6 August 2025
This condo comfortably sleeps 7 in beds and has a large sofa but no sleeper bed. The pictures clearly show the bedding arrangement. No bed was missing. The guest registered 7 adults but either misread the listing or confused it with another condo or added a few more guests. Maintenance tech did arrive and moved a lamp to the bedroom because a specialty LED bulb for the ceiling fan had to be ordered. My cleaning staff promises satisfaction and their contact info is provided. This is great condo, but it only a 3-bedroom/3-bath condo.

Beautiful place with a magnificent view!!

Place is on the top floor some 21 stories high. Rooms are spacious with plenty of drawers for storage of items. Balcony with ocean view is breath taking. Living area including the kitchen is interconnected and spacious. Only complaint is the cold faucet in the middle bathroom was lose. Other than that I wish we could have stayed longer.

Almost perfect

The condo is in a beautiful location and being in the penthouse is topnotch. The kitchen and baths were well equipped and nicely done. My only complaint is that the furniture is not what u expect. It looked like the owners cleaned out Granny's house and filled the place up. Placement was also strange. The deck offered the most amazing view but no comfortable chairs for viewing it...that was disappointing😣.... Just did not have the beachy or resort feel. Pam Martin is topnotch though...had a small issue after checking in and it was handled pronto.

Penthouse Views were amazing

The views from this penthouse were beautiful so that was a plus. The location of this is actually in Or very close to Fort Morgan and isn’t in Gulf Shores like we thought so we were disappointed with that. We had friends staying in Orange Beach so it was a half hour drive to them. Food trucks outside the property were really cool despite only three out the 6 being open. The furnishings and appliances are VERY outdated. Wouldn’t suggest if I had little ones.The clubhouse is really nice however, that should come with reneging the condo but it’s not. There’s an extra fee for it.
