This was a great townhouse to rent for a family vacation. Exactly like the pictures. Short walk to the pool and beach. We were able to walk down to the Shrimp Festival easily. Only small issue was that it took a while for the showers to drain all the water, so there would be sand left in the bottom of the tub. Not a big deal though. Would definitely come back.

Family Vaca

Townhome was amazing. Great location and so close to shops and restaurants!! My kids loved playing in the beach everyday and they swimming in the pool afterwards. The place was updated and equipped with everything you could possibly need. Would recommend 10 or 10 staying here. The host was extremely helpful and accommodating. We will definitely stay here again!!!

Perfect Getaway

We loved our stay at Gulf Shores. The condo was clean and well equipped with everything we needed. The beach access and pool were perfect for my children, we bounced back and forth all day and could still go up for lunch in the room. Lots of sand toys for the kids but only one beach chair so we rented chairs and umbrellas just right off the beach. We would come back here again !!!

Beautiful Condo!

My family and I just returned from our stay at this condo, and it was a great experience. Lovely unit, fully stocked with everything we needed, wonderful facilities (kids loved the pool, and so loved that I could see them from our unit), and it was in a great location! Our first trip to Gulf Shores was a good one!

Amazing!!

We loved our stay at this townhome. The location was perfect. Off the main stretch but close to restaurants and shops. The best part was the balcony view of the beach. The decor was so beautiful! Not loud or cheesy beach decor but modern and simplistic and clean clean clean!! The owners thought of everything. Washer dryer and kitchen well stocked. Beach toys for the beach and pool. The neighbors were so friendly and helpful with restaurant recommendations. We would come back again and again but maybe bring a smaller vehicle next time. It was a tight squeeze with our 3/4 ton pickup but not a deal Breaker at all. Thank you Curtis for everything!!

Perfect Family Vacation Spot

This place is beautiful! The space is nicely decorated and very clean and inviting, super functional and close to everything! We stayed here with our 6 children, our youngest being 6 months old. We could easily access the beach just steps outside our door and everything you need to enjoy your beach day is provided for you. When the kids were done playing in the waves they could enjoy the pool. Delicious restaurants and ice cream spots were in walking distance and when we would choose to drive some where it was never more than 15 minutes away. This place is perfect and we definitely plan to stay here again!

This townhome is adorable!! Super clean and with the new renovations it felt like home. Loved the short walk to the beach, as well as being able to walk to restaurants and grocery marts. We have been visiting Gulf Shores for 10 years and stayed in condos in the past. This was by far the easiest place, logistically speaking to stay!! AND the owners are great.
