Convenient location

Great location. The decor was bright and fun. The jacuzzi tub was nice. We were also able to walk to most places for dinner. If we come back to Gulf Shores, this would be the spot.

Great location and beautiful views

Simple things would move this review to a 5. No hairdryer, no seasonings, not even salt or pepper. No beach towels and very limited garbage bags. These conveniences make staying in a rental condo easier. The condo was cute and very clean for a beach property.

Yay and Nay

This condo has a wonderful, workable layout. It is decorated with a very cute, beachy theme. The kitchen is adequately stocked, the refrigerator is new and working well. The washer and dryer are older, but operable. My only complaint about our stay was that although the kitchen and bathrooms were clean the floors were extremely dirty. I The whole condo three times and still couldn’t get the floors sparkling clean. The wicker furniture is of good quality, but the cushions are broken down and should be replaced. Despite this, we had a very enjoyable time.

Great place!

Condo was everything I expected! There were little bars of soap at each sink, 2 tablets for the dishwasher, 2 packets to wash clothes, some dishwashing lotion, and a roll of paper towel. It was such a nice surprise and a few little things I didn't have to purchase. Walmart was close to get everything we needed for our stay. There are no beach towels or beach chairs, but you can rent the chairs that are put out on the beach. The king bed was comfortable and having 2 bathrooms was AWESOME! Kitchen was well stocked with dishes/silverware/coffee maker/blender. A great place I would like to come back another time! Remember to get your parking pass when you arrive - they give you a warning but you don't want your car towed.

We had cockroaches

After moving in, we noticed cockroaches in the kitchen. Staff was slow to respond. (I have a text thread that I sent to them which will explain how they responded.) I had to call the exterminator myself to get someone out there. Building Manager was not competent. Roaches were not exterminated until 3rd week of stay. Will not stay at San Carlos again, nor will I use Vacasa. I'm filing a complaint demanding my money back that I paid for host, cleaning fees, etc.

Spacious, clean condo!

The condo was very clean upon arrival and very spacious for three adults. The balcony is spacious and has nice furniture. The location to everything is spot on and the ease of getting down to the beach was perfect. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again. Vacasa's communication is great. The only thing that needs replacing is the mattress closest to the bath in the spare bedroom. Thanks for a great stay!

Loved it all except instructions for the big tv in the living room were not there and we couldn’t figure it out. Some people can I’m sure, but a lot won’t be able to.
