The condo was bigger than we expected! Very spacious and clean! We loved the big balcony and the view was incredible! We would definitely stay here again! Our only issue was that we wish there had been more kitchen and bathroom towels. Overall, a wonderful stay!

This space worked really well for our group. It is a great layout, size, and location. There are companies renting out chairs on the beach in front of the building if you would like to rent. However, there were a few small issues that we wish we had known in advance to plan. The coffee pot and coffee maker don't match/fit (they're different models/companies) so were were not able to use it. We called vacasa when we first arrived and they said that someone local would follow up, but they never did. There was a Keurig as well if you have pods. Also, the blankets on the beds are extremely thin - if we'd known, we would have brought some throw blankets. Not all of the outlets in the condo worked. Also, we would've appreciated some extra trash bags and instructions on where to bring trash, since we filled up the one bag provided quickly. Finally, there was a very odd setting on the TV - a pop up appeared after a few minutes saying it was going switch to Bluey every time we tried to use it. Overall, it was still great and I would return but wish we had known these things (and known how to fix the TV).

We loved the condo! We felt like everything was convenient in the condo to getting onto the beach to having dinner. The beds, floors and bathrooms were clean. I think the condo would benefit from a more detailed clean. The baseboards looked like they had never been wiped down & someone must have put bait in the fridge/freezer bc it smelt awful. We couldn’t use our ice bc our ice absorbed the smell along with some other things in the fridge. There was also trash left behind under the beds. The jacuzzi tub was clean, but once the water reached the jets without being turned on green/black debris came out. So we were unable to enjoy the tub. We loved the condo & what it had to offer. We will definitely be back, but home to be a little cleaner next time.

Overall good. Some dishes were dirty and had to be cleaned before use. Insufficient supplies (trash bags, paper towels, dish and laundry soap) provided for a four day stay so we bought our own and left hopefully for the next person. Condo was comfortable and clean but not very modernized compared to others where we’ve stayed in San Carlos before.

Great view, lacking amenities

The place itself is beautiful. 3 bedrooms, 3 baths for the win and a view of the ocean from the large balcony! However, it’s definitely no frills. The toilet paper is cheap and thin. The kitchen was not stocked. The coffee pot and coffee maker didn’t match (different brands which made it difficult to fit the pot in). It didn’t come with anything other than bare bones. Had to request hot pads which came the day after I needed them. The bedding is super thin, no comforter. And they don’t provide beach towels, umbrellas, or beach chairs. I was told to use a local rental for these items which was ok but when I arrived realized I could rent directly on the beach which would have been more convenient. Overall, it was a great property these things aside. The company (Vacasa) is not located locally so when you message them you get a different, non local person each time. They did let us check out 30 minutes late. If you visit, just make sure you bring all the essentials.

The carpet is filthy & needs to be replaced. Shower door in master bathroom is broken & leaks water all over the floor. Sheets are too small for the master bed & not very nice sheets. The pillows need to be replaced or washed—smell sweaty! We like San Carlos. The unit we had reserved got pulled back about 4:weeks before our arrival & this was the unit we could rent @ the last minute. Very quiet. Would rent this unit again if these things were fixed. We have come to San Carlos for 7-8 yrs.

Absolutely exceeded our expectations!

Our whole family really enjoyed staying here! I was blown away by the views of this property, and the overall set up of our condo. It rained most of our trip, but it didn't even matter because being able to sit out on the balcony, was so enjoyable. The pool was also a nice addition and it really wasn't ever packed, when we did go down to it. This property was conveniently located by lots of gift shops and delicious restaurants! The shopping carts, on site, to help load your stuff up and take it to your room was also a very nice touch. Overall the place was super clean, quiet, and was walking distance to the beach down below. We will definitely be coming back to Gulf Shores in the future and will be staying at San Carlos!!!
