    We had such a great stay at this little beachside studio! While the condo was a bit dated, it was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed for a relaxing trip. It’s right on the beach, and having access to a private stretch of sand was amazing — quiet, peaceful, and never crowded.We loved how convenient everything was — shops, restaurants, and amenities were just a few minutes away, but it still felt like a tucked-away spot. Gulf Shores was only about a 20-minute drive, so it was easy to enjoy all the fun there and then come back to unwind by the water.The sunsets were amazing, and we spent a lot of time just sitting on the beach soaking it all in. If you’re looking for a laid-back, comfortable place with a beautiful private beach, this is the perfect spot. We’d definitely stay again!

    Falsely advertised a bunk bed but the top bunk said for storage only upon arrival and was a bare mattress. Fire alarm was disconnected and off the ceiling, placed on a windowsill. Only 2 blankets in a place saying it sleeps 5--thankfully, our kids brought their blankies. Pullout couch was missing springs and a metal bar fell off when we attempted to use it, so that was unsafe. Host ghosted us. It was awful. I feel swindled. Hot tub was also out of order during our stay, but I recognize that's out of host control--nonetheless it added some insult to injury.

    This location was exactly as described, and very easy to find. The guard shack/check in was really quick, the employees very helpful and friendly. There is tremendous water pressure in the shower. All amenities work as expected. The balcony is small but it is enough for two people. It was very convenient to have Sassy Bass on the ground floor; we ate there three times. The only drawback we found is the placement of the bed which makes it really difficult to get in and out of the bed since there is very little space between the bed and the wall. The WIFI did take a while to connect; had to open a browser page to get it to actually function. Contacted the host and got a quick reply. We had a great time and will hopefully return in the future.

    The listing stated there was a washer and dryer, which was very important to me, in addition to a laundry facility. However, the unit only had access to a communal laundry facility. The unit itself could also use a thorough deep cleaning and updated furnishings—some of them were a bit wobbly, and the cookware was burned. While the beds and couch were fine, the kitchen needs some attention.I felt quite misled by the sunsuite description; it was undeniably a studio. The only private space in the unit was the shower/toilet room. Overall, the unit wasn't a complete disappointment, but I wasn't thrilled with it either. It was just okay. My main feeling is that both the listing and the unit itself need some updating and better cleaning, though it ultimately sufficed for our family.Furthermore, the listing encourages its size for a small family of five (which we are), but we were only provided with one roll of toilet paper, five towels, five washcloths, and zero dishwashing cloths for a week-long stay. It hardly feels like a vacation when I have to spend every other day washing towels and running to the convenience store for basic essentials. That being said, the location is great, and while the balcony is small, the view is wonderful and we enjoyed our trip.

    Great size condo for a couple or small family. Condo could use a little TLC and updated.

    This was our second stay and we loved it. We look forward to our yearly vacation staying here. My family enjoys the view and ease of access to the beach and pools. My husband and I discussed trying to book this condo for all our future stays.

    The pictures are deceiving, this is one large space with a bed in a nook area and a couch and very small chair. The bunks is a nook between the kitchen and the the living/sleeping space. The kitchen is open the to the whole space the bathroom is in the kitchen and the sink is outside the kitchen. The deck is tiny ok for one maybe two people to sit in the high chairs provided.. the room is on the beach with a nice view but the walk is so very long to get the the elevator to take you down to the pool and beach access. The room it self need a good up date. Furniture very old only one tv and it’s very small maybe a 24 or 26 inch. The dinning table is too large for the space. The owner was very helpful and nice the facilities and amenities, pools, lobby , was very nice worth the price. Over all we had a good time and the price was right.

    From the moment we booked, the owner was welcoming. The condo comes with everything that you need to cook or you can eat at the restaurant located directly below the condo. The view is amazing! Some things are a little outdated but you cannot beat it for the location and price. We will definitely be back!

    Everything was amazing! The only issue that we ran into was I was responsible for buying/ bringing any rolls of toilet paper, paper towels and trash bags after the one that was already there at check in. We Also received one bath towel per family member ( family of 4) for our stay of 5 nights. I had to pay to wash them if I wanted them clean ones in the washers and dryers.

    We enjoyed our stay!!! The condo is on the third floor with a great view of the ocean. The balcony is small which was perfect for my husband and I to sit and relax after a long day out with our children. I read some of the other reviews before booking and was nervous about some of the things mentioned, but we didn’t have one problem with anything our whole stay. We have two young sons and a two month old little girl so we spent most of our time at the indoor pool because of the high temperatures. We look forward to staying here again next year.

    This was our second time staying here! We love it! It's perfect for our young family of four. If you have older kids might be a little small if yall need privacy as everything (except the toilet and the shower) is one big room. But the property is nice definitely more family oriented area. Host is always quick to get our check-in materials to us. If you love being on the beach and just enjoying a family getaway then this is a perfect little place to stay!
