First of all the view is spectacular with a large balcony. I saw dolphins playing, and there were people parasailing. We enjoyed swimming in the pool and soaking in the hot tub and the elevators were super fast. We would love to stay there again.

Wonderful stay

We had such a great time here! The location was great, the beach in front of this condo isn’t jam packed like other areas and the amenities kept our teens busy. The owners respond quickly and are very helpful should you need it. The condo was clean including the furnishings. We would definitely stay here again!

GREAT VIEW, will return to same property!

This property was as listed. Very clean and comfortable beds. The owner was great at communicating and checked in with us the first day to make sure things were going good and to make sure we got our parking pass and the wristbands for the amenities. He was very kind. The view was phenomenal, we will return to this property when returning to the Gulf Shores area.

Awesome Beach Front Stay

One word- PERFECT! We have never stayed anywhere that had the sunrise and sunset views that we had from our balcony. Beautiful condo, had everything we needed, extremely clean, and owner did a check-in call to make sure we were in and all was good. Wished we could have stayed longer, and will certainly stay again!!!
