HOME AWAY FROM HOME

This two bedroom, two bathroom 3rd floor unit at Phoenix VII has great views of the gulf and beach.

We purchased this condo in April, 2021, and our makeover will hopefully provide a comfortable and cozy place for you to vacation. The entire condo has been repainted, including the ceilings. Other updates include replacing the carpets in the bedrooms with luxury vinyl plank, new beds, and new ceiling fans. In addition, there are new appliances throughout including refrigerator, stove, microwave, dish washer and clothes dryer. We also added a new dining room table, coffee table, end tables and bar stools. The balcony also has brand new furniture. We installed a new key-less entry for your convenience. All rooms are furnished in blues and earth tones and have new pictures and accessories.

Additional renovations were done from January through March, 2022. Thanks to our property managers, we were able to completely redo both bathrooms. This work included two new showers and a bathtub, new vanities and countertops, new lights, new mirrors, new medicine cabinets and two new toilets. In addition, we purchased new drapes throughout, pictures, living room furniture and a new smart television in the living room. The bedrooms both have televisions and are equipped with fire sticks.

Amenities include: pack ‘n play for infants, washer and dryer, iron and ironing board, hairdryers in both bathrooms, indoor/outdoor pools, hot tubs, sauna, exercise room, tennis courts, racquetball court, pickle ball courts, shuffleboard court and grills. Directv and internet is provided.

Having special guests like you at our previous condo was great. We received over 70 reviews with a 4.9/5 average review. These reviews and our guest book comments indicate how much our last condo was enjoyed. We hope to have the same guest approval for our new condo. Importantly, we use a small, highly reliable company to manage this condo. This insures a personal touch not found in large condo management companies. When you stay in our condo, you can be sure it will be clean.

Perfect for our family

This location was great for the ages of our kiddos (7,5,2) everything was within a 10 min driving distance. There were things to do just to take a break from the sun and heat. Loved that the majority of the pool was under 4 foot deep. Getting to the ocean is a bit of a walk but the bridge going out was very nice with multiple hoses to rinse off at. Cindy (the host) was very organized and quick to respond to any needs or questions I had.

Perfect condo for our group of 4

Check in and check out couldn’t have gone smoother. Very clean and convenient condo. The only suggestion I have for the owners is to have more bath towels. We had to wash them a few times to make it through the trip with clean towels. I suggest bringing extra toilet paper and detergent for the washing machine. Would book here again!

Welcoming and Comfortable

This condo was perfect for me and my six siblings and friends. We felt right at home from the moment we arrived. It was clean and inviting and we had everything we needes. We cooked dinner on two different nights because we felt right at home and didn't want to leave! I celebrated my 30th birthday and my brother got engaged on the balcony. This condo will foreihold a special place in our hearts.

We loved unit 201!

We loved Phoenix east and our unit. This was by far the best unit we have ever stayed in. Beautiful views, comfy beds, and almost anything you could need for your home away from home. My family of 7 had plenty of room. Pool was great and unit was a very short walk to the beach. I cannot say enough good things about this unit. We also loved the small touches like a pack and play for the baby and a fully stocked kitchen. We will be back!

Old College Friend Beach Vacation

The location of this condo was wonderful. We were close to everything we wanted to do in Orange Beach. Everything was just a quick uber ride away. We all really enjoyed the wrap around balcony the view was beautiful. There were four couples and there was plenty of room for 8 adults comfortably. We have never stayed on a lower floor before but it was great. We didn't have to wait too long for the elevator and if we didn't want to wait we just took the stairs. There were two things that we were displeased about. In the master bedroom the closet had a very strong smell like urine. We couldn't even open the closet door it was so strong. Our friends could smell it when they walked in to our room. Also the master bedroom king size bed was old and lumpy. My husband and I stayed in the master bedroom and we sank in the bed. We had terrible neck and back aches from the bed. Other than those two things everything was good and we all really enjoyed ourselves. We really got to relax and catch up with old friends.

This was our first time to this area to meet family and friends. The condo was exactly as described, great decor and all the items needed to make a great stay. Perfect location and the view was amazing. The only complaint is having to pay $55.00 for a parking pass, it should be included with the stay. Otherwise amazing place!!
