Perfect Beach Stay!

This unit was wonderful! We especially appreciated the expense, thoughtfulness, and quality of the balcony furniture! It was like an outdoor living room and where we spent most of our time! The place was very nicely decorated, clean, and full of everything you’ll need. We also loved the large, comfortable couch, with enough space for everyone, and my dad loved the recliner. Large tvs, games in the cabinet, and the large balcony! Will definitely be returning to this spot!!!

Perfect girls getaway!

This condo was perfect in every way! Beautifully decorated, comfortable furniture and beds. I loved the couch and table on the balcony which allowed us to read and journal peacefully. Pool had plenty of seating and shade as the day goes on. Lots of cookware and utensils made preparing meals at home easy, great coffee maker too. If you're looking for a quiet retreat to relax and reconnect with friends you won't be disappointed. Vacasa made everything easy from booking to sending all pertinent information in a timely fashion. Highly recommend!

Orange Beach 2024

We were there for my grand-daughter's softball tournament. The condo definitely met and exceeded all our expectations and we will for sure try to book again next year. It was just as described and the deck was the deciding factor. We loved the view and being able to relax there. Also having the recliner was a plus for my husband.

We loved the condo itself. There was only one elevator working, so it was inconvenient when trying to get to the 12th floor. The hot tub was also closed on and off. The condo was clean and amazing! The view was more than we could ask for!!!

Comfortable, clean, and ocean view as expected!

This is very nice cono and exceeded our expectations. Job well done by the housekeeping team! The condo was very clean, nicely decorated, and well maintained! This comment is coming from a career hotelier. The view from the balcony was wonderful. One of the reasons we selected this condo was because of the sizeabe, nicely furnished balcony. With the weather being a bit on the cool side, and breezy, we spent a good amount of time on the balcony. It was wonderful! My only disappointment was obtaining the parking pass. There was repeated written communication that your vehicle will be towed if you don't have a parking pass. Yet, no pass was provided upon our arrival. I thought I was calling the local Vacasa office when calling the number provided for assistance. My call was noticably directed to a call center. It took two days, and two calls, to get our parking pass. In the meantime, we had to explain to Bluewater security, each time we returned from venturing out, why we did not have a pass. We had to put a hand-written note on our vehicle dash to let security know we were legitimate guests. Once a guest checks-in, it would be nice to be provided a "local" number to call for matters such as this. At the time, it was frustrating. In the end, it was resolved, and the negative impact of the frustration deminished over time.

Perfect!

We could not have been happier with this rental! Orange Beach location was perfect. Parking was easy and convenient and carts were available for transporting items (bonus!). No issues with elevator access. Grounds were well kept, outdoor pools were nice, and outdoor showers on the pathway to/from beach offered the ability to wash sand. Access to the beach could not have been any more convenient. Condo unit itself was beautiful, appropriately updated and well decorated. All amenities met expectations. Patio was amazing. Cleanliness was lacking slightly and is the only reason for 4 vs 5 stars. On the surface things you expect to be clean were (i.e. toilet, shower, counters, linens, etc.) but upon deeper look the unit really could use a deep clean (i.e. floors washed, base boards, cabinents, etc.). Overall this did not impact our stay and we would definitely rent/stay again.
