Driftwood Towers 5D

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Just west of the Gulf Place public beach entertainment area in Gulf Shores, Driftwood Towers is a serene and relaxing yet fun and welcoming condominium complex.

A sparkling outdoor swimming pool faces the Gulf of Mexico with its sea oat-covered dunes and expansive beachfront area that provides ample space for vacationing families to build sandcastles, splash in the Gulf, stroll underneath the starry sky and simply enjoy spending time together.

You'll find everything you need to prepare and enjoy meals in your condo's fully equipped kitchen and dining area, but if you enjoy cooking and dining outdoors, a grilling area is located on site.

Each individual condo features its own private balcony giving you the option to extend your living space outdoors, watch the sun rise and set each day, and relax to the sounds of the surf, seagulls and happy families playing below.

Driftwood Towers is centrally located in Gulf Shores, meaning you are within close proximity to popular attractions like the newly revitalized, beautiful main public beach area, Waterville USA, hiking and biking trails, Gulf State Park, dining options ranging from fast food to upscale coastal cuisine and everything in between, and tiny mom-and-pop boutiques as well as large stores filled with everything you'll ever need for your vacation.

Also nearby is the Popular Hangout restaurant, which draws families all hours of the day and night to play games, dine on tasty seafood, listen to live music and take full advantage of the beach life.

Book your next vacation at Driftwood Towers. You'll be near all the fun and still be able to retreat from your busy lifestyle.

Enjoyed our stay!

We really enjoyed our stay at this condo! It was in a great location! Beach access was wonderful! Balcony was perfect! We were a bit disappointed DVD player did not work, maybe should be taken out of description if obsolete. Condo was cute & kitchen well supplied! We would stay here again!

Birthday trip

We love the location. Just wish we had known that we would not be able to access the beach from the property. The only beach access was walking down to the public beach access point which was inconvenient carrying chairs, umbrella, ice chest, and other belongings. We understand that there is construction going on at the property which is very much needed. There are significant upgrades needed at this property. Just wish we had known a little more about them before hand.

Week away

The unit was fine. Comfortable and in a nice location. We were disappointed that the pool area was not open due the deck being resurfaced. Would have been nice to know in advance since I’m sure the work was scheduled well in advance of our stay.

Outdated

When we first opened the door it smelled musty, not fresh and clean. My daughter hung her foot on nails or staples where the carpet meets the tile floor. Carpet was old and coming apart where carpet meets tile.

July 3-7

Couldn’t ever connect to WiFi, it is password connected and locked and not open WiFi as advertised. I even tried to call about it. Also, both bathroom breakers were thrown when a hairdryer was being used in both bathrooms at same time. Dryer completely died and we couldn’t wash our sandy clothes. We had used dryer 1 time and then it quit. I had units white towels in washer when it died and we had to call for towels in order to shower last 2 days. Oven door kept locking on us while cooking and stopped cooking our food while locked, had to call about this too. I’ve never had this much trouble in a condo unit before at Gulf Shores! Great location but too many issues in our unit

Toes in the sand

My husband and I have stayed in these property before. It is clean easy to get to and convenient to restaurant's and the beach. The updated and improved pool deck was a welcome site. Our stay was short but it satisfied my need to put my toes in the sand.
