Our third stay at The Lighthouse and we are very happy coming each time. The double pools/hot tubs are beloved by our family, the extreme ease of access to get onto the beach is so nice. Beautiful views and always feels so good to be there. Thanks for having us!

Great Condo

This is our 6th visit to The Lighthouse. This condo is beautifully decorated. It was great! The only thing that needs help is the TV is set to record every single SpongeBob show, so the tv kept changing to SpongeBob. Someone who knows how to stop this, it’ll help the next guest. 😁Super vacay for us!

Good for families

Overall we really enjoyed our stay. The lighthouse offered two pools, one being zero entry which was perfect for our three year olds. Private beach access was a great feature. The room itself was perfectly functional. A few areas throughout the room were showing some age but nothing too bad. The mattresses were not very comfortable in either room and one of the bar stools was broken before we even entered the room. Other than those things everything else was as pictured. Great location to everything in either Gulf Shores or Orange Beach.

Beautiful Oceanview!!

Loved staying here. Check-in/out was extremely smooth. Parking garage is a little tight, so try the 3rd floor (open air) if you drive a larger vehicle. The elevators are fast, and located conveniently to get you to the central office on the 2nd floor for check-in. The condo was super clean, felt spacious and cozy. The 7th floor ocean view was gorgeous, especially being able to see it from the master BR and the living room. So happy to have found this place!

Up Dated Decor

We enjoyed the updated decor throughout the condo. Large balcony with lots of chairs to look at the ocean and beach. Den furniture was comfortable but there was just 3 of us so we felt like to “lounge” with more people it would be hard because of limited seating.

Wonderful Condo!

Upon arrival, condo was spotless. I was impressed with how the facility was so clean and frequently saw staff cleaning pools and pool area, outside windows and common spaces. View from condo was spectacular! Condo had sand toys for use which were great for kids. There were a lot of television remotes to manage and hide from kids (2 per TV for a total of 8). Loved that the balcony doors were heavy as small kids couldn’t open them without assistance. Appliances (microwave, stove, dishwasher, laundry, refrigerator, coffee maker and toaster) clean and all working. Great kitchen pantry! Checkin was easy and instructions were clear.

Cleanliness not a priority

I chose this condo over similar listings because of the ratings and comments on cleanliness. Unfortunately this unit needs a significant deep clean! The baseboards were very dirty throughout the unit as was the wall near the kitchen garbage. Cabinets above the microwave had significant dust/grease accumulation. The master bath was quite unpleasant-most grout/caulk lines were black with mildew. The space between the shower and bathtub was very dirty as well! Several sheets and pillow cases had stains as did several couch cushions . The window in the bunk room was very very gross with dirt/mildew. This was very disappointing. The owner of this unit needs to do a walk through- and hire a better cleaning crew!

No AC. No accountability.

We stayed 3 out of 4 nights with no AC. I understand that sometimes things break, and that just happens, but it was handled horribly! We arrived late on a Tuesday and alerted Vacasa immediately that the AC was not working. We were told they would have someone out the next day. No one ever came or updated us. Wednesday afternoon I contacted them again and they acted like it was my fault because I notified them outside of their 9-5 business range, even though it is clearly says there is 24/7 support and I was already told that the local property manager was alerted and would be coming. Then the story changed, saying that the local property manager was not responding to them, and then the story changed again and the local property manager was supposed to be out there first thing Thursday morning, he did not come until mid afternoon on Thursday just to tell us that he could not get the part that was needed until Friday, but he would be there first thing in the morning between 8 and 8:30. When we questioned him on why it took him so long to get there in the first place, he blamed it on Vacasa and said he was just now alerted that we had a problem. So on day FOUR of our trip, did he show up early AM like we were told? No. Called Vacasa, they blamed it on him again. We stayed away from the room as much as possible because it was miserable and hot. Finally got AC Friday afternoon, only to leave the following morning. The SMALL refund given to us because of this was a joke.
