Great view of the gulf for a young growing family

The place was somewhat outdated. However, it was perfect for our young family. The bunkbed was a nice touch for our 4 year old. She enjoyed sleeping there. We also enjoyed watching an NCAA football game on the big screen. The balcony gave use. great view of multiple dolphin pods.

view is amazing but unit could use an update along with pots and pans. skillet handle was very loose. cabinet door strips were coming off. living room furniture not comfortable needs new. Bed slept great. Tv wires hanging in living room and bedroom could be a hazard. The outlets were loose and no charges for tablets or phones was available.

Profile Pictures Tell the Truth!

I was a first time user of VRBO. My best friend of almost 50 years had planned a "get out of covid jail" vacation for months. The condo is almost perfect. Right on the beach in Gulf Shores, clean, convenient to shopping, and restaurants. One minor issue with the shower was addressed immediately. The balcony provides a beautiful location for morning coffee or tea. The sound of the ocean waves were soothing at night. It's a perfect We didn't use the pool, but people seemed to be having a lot of fun. Plenty of parking for one vehicle. Practically no waiting for the elevator. Very quiet for sleeping. I will return to Gulf Shores.

Definitely NOT worth the money!!

The property should not ever be listed again until it gets much needed updates, deep clean, paint new cupboards in kitchen and bath, sheets that fit the bed …how hard is that?? There was no hot water in the shower for 2 days! And no stopper for the tub! Frig didn’t make ice-there was an ice machine but no instructions. We got there in the evening and couldn’t even have a cold drink! Smoke alarm went off 4 times-had to make toast ion the deck!😵‍💫 TV in bedroom didn’t work and the one in livingroom never had a full picture! Couch had yucky stains on it! Dishes were a collection of mismatched items from garage sales. Frying pans were gross! 6 hangers!🙄 Get the picture? And we had to sit on crappy dirty old chairs on the deck while we looked at the beautiful view! The only good thing about this property! We were so excited to get away for a couple of weeks and we were so extremely disappointed!!Paying thousands for this property was a misrepresentation. VRBO needs to do a better job of evaluating the properties they represent. The Cadwells

Best Vacation!!

I’ve waited for years for my “beach vacation,” and finally took one in celebration of my retirement last week. Every time I’d search for a beach vacation, I was somewhat put off by glitzy high rises with the potential for masses of humanity. Or, houses where you’d have to walk a few blocks to reach the beach. But Clearwater Condos is only 8 floors high with 3 condos per floor—a more intimate experience, saying “hello” to those you encountered at the elevator. The beach wasn’t crowded and we could walk out the ground floor of the building, enter a code in the gate (ensuring a somewhat “private” beach) and you are there! Beautiful, white sand and clear-ish salt water. But I think the best part was waking up in the morning and drinking my coffee to the sounds of the waves, with a PERFECT, up-close view of the beach. We also enjoyed watching the “crabbers” at night, with their lighted caps. Last night, a small child squealed with glee every time they discovered a crab. Regarding the condo itself, it was clean and equipped with everything we needed. The building was extremely quiet at night, ensuring a good night’s rest. And finally, the management was in touch with me, responding to my questions and ensuring we were happy and taken care of. We’ve already booked our next trip to bring our grandchildren. We LOVE this place!!!

Good condo for one or two persons

Great place for 1 or 2 people. Would be too small for more unless it was parents and minor children. Bath is small with limited counterspace and space for towels. Close to beach and restaurants. Easy-to-access entry.

Great Family Vacation

We had a great time staying at this condo. Our family of five fit perfectly. Everything was very clean and up to date. With the condo building being on the smaller side, the facilities were never crowded. I would definitely recommend.

This was awful

Couch bed broke and folded up my friends sleeping, was told it would be fixed. Never was. On top of that 1 roll of toilet paper for 6 people. And when I asked for another roll was told to buy my own.

Good property

This was a nice enough place. Compared to near by prices I would say this was a good value. The building is smaller than others which helped keep the beach crowd lower. Pool was nice. No pool/beach bathrooms is a bummer. I would stay here again.
