Gulf Shores, Alabama
Pictures can't do justice to the breathtaking views from every window of Ocean Skyline, a 12th-floor condo in the sought-after Sanibel Condominiums. With 30-foot floor-to-ceiling windows facing the Gulf of Mexico (we like to call it the "ocean wall") and Little Lagoon / West Beach views from the north & east windows & master balcony, spend your down time relaxing in a "VIEW with a room." Our guests tell us things like "pictures don't do this place justice" and "the views are absolutely stunning." Come see for yourself!
Spacious and clean: You'll have room to breathe in over 1,500 sq ft of space in this nonsmoking unit even while you're all enjoying time together.
Watch the sun rise over the Gulf and set on the Lagoon: Ocean Skyline features amazing Gulf views from the 30-foot wall to wall, floor to ceiling glass on the 12th floor and full-width balcony, plus Little Lagoon views from additional windows and the master balcony!
Location: 2.5 miles west of the Hwy 59 and Beach Blvd. intersection, an easy drive to attractions but away from the biggest of crowds. No fighting for space on the beach, but just minutes to restaurants and activities.

ADVENTURE!
You may never get tired of hanging in the condo and staring at the ocean, but adventure awaits! Here are some of our favorite spots:
• Hiking and Nature: The Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge Pine Beach Trail takes you through maritime forest, scrub, and dune habitats, a saltwater lagoon and freshwater lake, and finally, the beautiful Gulf of Mexico.
• Kayaking: Kayak the Little Lagoon with a rental from the Down Under Dive Shop.
• Parasailing: Dozens of local companies will take you gliding across the Gulf. We've seen dolphins and sting rays and turtles on our adventures with Top Tier Watersports in Orange Beach!
• Dolphin-watching: Bring binoculars and dolphin-watch right from the condo balcony, or see them up close on a Sunset dolphin cruise on the Sunny Lady.
• Alligators: Take a day trip to Alligator Alley, where you can feed the gators, hold a baby, and check out the 800-pound Captain Crunch and his pals in the swamp.
• Pensacola: Take another day trip to the National Naval Aviation Museum, the historic Pensacola Lighthouse, and if you're lucky watch the Blue Angels practice!
• Good Eats: The BEST KEPT SECRET in Gulf Shores is Hog Wild BBQ. You'll go wild for their delicious Alabama white sauce on smoked pork or chicken. Other favorites: Ruby Slipper (brunch), Playa (fancy dinner on the wharf in Orange Beach), and Foam (coffeehouse). If you're staying in to grill, pick up some fresh Gulf Coast shrimp and red snapper from Gulf Shores Seafood.
• At the Condo: Walk out the back (north) door and watch the sun set on the Little Lagoon or do a little fishing from the public pier! In the morning, walk out the back (north) door, go west toward Lagoon Pass Park, and walk next to the Lagoon Pass for a morning sunrise walk.
This place was amazing and completely exceeded our expectations! The accommodations were perfect for our family of 5! Even roomier than we needed! The balcony was a favorite and the location of this condo cannot be beat! Literally minutes from toes in the ocean, and the lagoon right behind was a special treat. Neat, clean, everything worked and ran great! Hosts are also excellent with communication!
We only stayed one night due to us driving to another destination. But this place was great and plenty of room for everyone. Would definitely recommend
A family friendly condo with quick access the beach and a nice pool. Would return.
Great view of gulf and back channel, clean, spacious, decorated bright and beachy, easy beach access, convenient location, well-equipped unit, clean washer and dryer, comfortable beds, amazing balcony with sturdy, comfortable chairs, easy to use elevators and good parking.
We had the best time staying at this property! The condo was very nice, extremely clean and had everything we were looking for! The views of the ocean and the lagoon did not disappoint! We were just steps away from the water! The hosts were very accommodating and were good to keep in touch to make sure we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this property!
The property was very clean, the paint and decor was fresh, and the owner personally messaged us during the week to check on us.
The condo is beautiful, clean and very well stocked with everything we needed. The beach cart & chairs were such a nice bonus! The beds are super comfortable and I can’t say enough about the beautiful views!! I only wish We could stay here longer. We will definitely be back again. I use vrbo a lot and this place is one of the best! Thank you Gretchen & Derek for being such terrific hosts.
This property was beautiful! The pictures were the exact view of the condo. It was very simple from booking, check in, vacation, and check out. The patio was huge and a perfect view of the ocean. The beach access was close and easily Accessible. Overall, it was a great experience!
Spacious condo with beautiful view. Plenty of room for the 4 of us. Loved that it had 3 bathrooms. Had everything we needed in the kitchen. Enjoyed sitting on the balcony. Neighborhood was quiet and safe. We walked every day. Public beach access across the street.
Such a beautiful condo with perfect gulf views! Spacious and clean. Wonderful balcony with comfortable furniture for enjoying morning coffee. Having beach supplies included is a nice perk!
