Gulf-Front condo with balcony, beach access, WiFi, AC, & outdoor pool

We had a great stay here. Our family of 8 all had sleeping space, with the sleeper sofa pulled out. Communication with the rent management company was smooth and easy, with almost all of it done via text. Only tips I would give future guests is the somewhat slow WiFi included in other reviews (streaming worked fine, but working on laptop was laggy), and be conservative with hot water….seemed to have a small water heater. But again, we had our whole family in here, and we are a little spoiled with hot water at home! The complex was very small, which was a positive because it was not overrun with people and was very quaint. Super easy access to beach. Also, most of the parking was underneath the building on ground level, but there is uncovered parking outside the building. We have a Sprinter van that requires 10 ft clearance, so you can park a vehicle like that outside the building in the lot. Would stay here again.

Our stay was wonderful. The room was amazing. The only issue we ever had was the WiFi was very spotty.

The unit was clean and comfortable. The property is well maintained.

Our condo was amazing and would definitely book again. It was beautiful, clean, secluded. I only had one complaint; parking passes. For a 3 bedroom/3bath condo, we were issued 2 parking passes; needed 3. I understand reasoning, but provide additional safe parking information; out of town guests do not have that information.

Perfect place to stay! Super cute and spacious place with everything needed for a stay. The views from the balcony are beautiful. Communication with host was easy and fast.

Great location! So close to beach, quiet, friendly. Nicely appointed. We will definitely be back here.

Nice area , first time vacationing here. Will definitely return .

We were super excited and happy with this condo. Easy access to all the things we do in Orange Beach and Gulf Shores.

We enjoyed our stay. The property was well maintained

The positives: the gated entry at Marlin Key was nice and the dedicated covered parking was much appreciated. The location was excellent, near everything. The negatives: we were surprised that there were no restrooms in the pool area. It was pretty inconvenient to go back to the unit from the beach if anyone needed to use the restroom during the day. We were also surprised that the boardwalk from the pool area to the beach pictured in the listing no longer exists. The extra walking in the sand with beach stuff was harder on the older folks in our party. The wifi was very unstable and dropped out completely for a couple of days making it impossible to get anything done on the internet. Finally, some of the decor had obviously been changed since the photos in the listing were posted. Newer photos should be posted to accurately show how the unit is furnished. For the reasons listed the best rating I would give Marlin Key 2G is 3 stars.
