Stayed Jun 28, 2025Close to the beach, shops, and The Hangout. The master bed was very loud and squeaky on one side and had uneven support.

Stayed Mar 25, 2025The description is a little misleading. The 2nd bedroom has bunk beds as described, but only a single pullout chair, not a double as listed and no sheets for it were provided. The top bunk can only hold 175lbs according to the sign on the walk beside it, so it really just holds 1 person. The dryer only works for about 10min before overheating so it takes a long time to dry anything! I reported it, but no one ever came to fix it. The property is for sale so we had to have an appraiser do an inspection while we were there too. Parking is not included and is 100 extra. All were just minor inconveniences, but inconveniences just the same.

Stayed Dec 26, 2024Loved our little condo with beach views and super easy beach access! It was easy to find and pretty quiet. Easy to get to everything in gulf shores. The kitchen is pretty well stocked. Only downside was the king mattress which is concave and not comfortable. Also, the mattresses on the sofa beds are really only for small children because they’re thin and springy

Stayed Sep 25, 2024There were roaches in the floor, sand in the beds, sand in the floor, the door did not lock properly and was scared throughout our stay due to it would come unlocked. Door was left, unlocked several times due to malfunction in the keypad. Definitely needs work! Also dishes were dirty in the cabinets.

Stayed Jul 27, 2024This condo was everything we wanted/needed for a family vacation. It was close enough for us to walk down to the hangout and Gulf place for the kids to play. The pool was perfect and the property was super clean! The only thing our condo didn’t have was a broom so there was literally sand everywhere lol! We enjoyed this place and will be back next year!

Stayed Jul 16, 2024The place seemed clean, then if you walked barefoot, the bottom of your feet were instant black. The toilet would make a loud noise at 430am everyday. We had someone come look at it, but neevr did anything. The bunkbed in room was wobbly and broken under the top bunk, the maintenence couldnt fix it so my kids were very careful. My daughter was on her way down to beach to us and maintenance stopped her and told her we couldnt use shower by kitchen cus it was leaking into unit under us and thst he was going i to our place to take pictures and leave a note. When we got back to our room, the door was left unlocked by maintenance and all our money and cards wverything was in there. There was also no note left. When i went to office to talk to them about it they had no idea they were coming to pur room, so i called the host, they also said they were unaware. Other then fhat we loved the location. In walking distance to beach, food, and shopping.

Stayed Dec 31, 1969We walked into a bag of garbage as the welcome bag. The air conditioner wasn't working when we got there. It took until day three of our seven day vacation to get it fixed. No compensation was offered no apology given. My family has used beach ball for several years. And we will not be using it again.
