place was extremely clean!! Exactly as described in pictures!! My teen girls loved the loft area. Beach was very walkable, and loved the store next door (very convenient) . we were there for ShrimpFest, and very walkable to festival!! The only downside to our trip was one of the pocket doors to master bedroom was broke and didn't shut properly and the light over the staircase outside was right outside master window (although it is my personal preference to sleep in pitch dark, some people might not mind it). kitchen had all basic utensils to cooked meals.

Thank you so much for your great review, Jessica! We’re thrilled to hear the condo was just as expected and that your teen girls enjoyed the loft area! We're glad the location worked so well for your Shrimp Fest trip, and that the nearby store and walkable beach made everything extra convenient. We appreciate you mentioning the pocket door and outside light—we’ll definitely look into that. Thanks again for staying with us, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!

More than I expected!
Great location to the beach and quiet area. The pictures didn’t do it justice bc the inside was pretty I expected. I have a bad knee and really needed an easy way to come and go than 2 flights of stairs but I managed.

Baseball Tournament Stay
We visited Gulf Shores for a baseball tournament in June. The location of the condo was convenient to stores, dining, public beach access, and our fields. When we arrived, there was a minor issue with the check in code, however we received a quick response from the management company and we were able to check in quickly. We found the condo clean and well stocked. The beds were comfortable, and the wifi and AC worked very well. This was a great option for our family trip!

We had a great time. The unit was very cozy and peaceful with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We enjoyed sitting outside on the balcony and playing in the pool. The location is top-notch, an easy walk to the beach and so many activities just a short drive away. We would love to come back again soon.

Our stay was wonderful! Very cozy! Our teen daughter loved the upstairs loft via spiral staircase. The bed was comfortable! Kitchen had everything we needed. All was clean! The location was perfect. Walkable to the public beaches. Just far away enough from the bustle, to be quiet and peaceful, yet close enough to be near the fun!
Thanks!!

We enjoyed our stay. Our host answered all of our questions immediately. Great home away from home!!
We loved everything about this condo! The location was easy to get to and easy to get out of and getting around to area locations. It was perfect! The downstairs tub was slow to drain, but not so bad you couldn’t or wouldn’t want to use it.

The place was immaculate considering how close to the beach it is. Plenty of towels in both bathrooms. There is a grocery store on the corner not even half a block away. Every thing including the beach is within walking distance. This condo is two stories up. There is no elevator. My girlfriend fell prior to our stay. This made it very difficult for her to traverse the stairs.
