Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed our stay! Loved the location and amenities of this condo. Easy walk to beach and spent a lot of time at the tennis courts. A couple days the weather was stormy and windy, so we appreciated having the books, games and cable tv available. We'd definitely return!

Brief Vacation with Friends

Enjoyed our stay. Kitchen was organized pretty good for cooking in. The balcony was nice to sit on in the evenings. The ocean was across the road, but we could see it. We had access to the ocean across the road. We’ll be back.

Great location and size.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was nice and in a great location. The kitchen definitely needs some cookware added as we had to go and buy a skillet as there was not one there, and there were very few utensils. However, I loved the office section setup in the living room area. The kitchen was small but they really took advantage of the space that was available for storage. Nice sized bathrooms and closets as well. Excellent balcony! I will say that we left a beach chair sitting by the front door to dry a bit before bringing it in and someone had stolen it by the next AM. -not the fault of anyone other than a dishonest guest. :( Overall, we were very pleased and will stay here again!!

Double water views

In spite of the mega concerts located on the beach two miles from us, getting around was not difficult. Very nice relaxing condo and great amenities. Love the pool area and private beach. Staff and neighbors were very nice to us.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We rented unit 707A. Overall it was a nice stay. Beds were comfortable and it was enough room for our family of 5. Kitchen was nice! The facility was nice! Kids loved the pool and hottub, husband loved being able to walk right out to fish in Lagoon. Downside is, I don't think the dishwasher cleaned the dishes very well at all. When cooking, the dishes smelled very weird so we didn't cook at all. Floors werent super clean. We walked around with house shoes on to prevent our feet from being black. Other then that, it was great!

Peaceful

Communication with the property manager was very good. They promptly answered any questions I had. The condo was very nice and clean and to add the icing on the cake, if you leave the patio door cracked, you can hear the waves of the gulf from the bedroom and living room. It was so peaceful and relaxing. My boys and I really enjoyed it. The only damper was I had to supply my own trash bags and tissue once what they initially provided (1 trash bag and 1 roll of tissue for both bathrooms) were gone. At most place the essential items are always provided. Other than that, I'd definitely stay again.

Fantastic time

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo had everything we needed. Staff was professional and helpful. Negatives were broken door latches, some of the repairs were not up to par. Would have loved higher chairs to see over balcony railing and beach chairs supplied by owner. This is pretty typical for most condos here. Later check out time. 10 is too early.

Worth the price

We loved this property! The beach view was great, and the rooms were clean with plenty of storage. Everything was as pictured. Other thoughts about our stay that are not under the owners' control but might help you -- we stayed in June 2022, and the central building elevators were still closed, so that made the side building elevator more crowded and take longer. Ample parking in the lot, beach erosion across the street lead to us using the 13th street public beach parking and access, 0.8 miles east of the property. Thank you again. Great home! We ever had fun messing with my daughter as the two bedroom closet lights are on the same circuit, so I could turn the 2nd bedroom closet light on and off by turning my closet light on and off. :)

Not the best

The condo unit was cheaply done. Cut one light off another came on. Closets were ply wood. Balcony door was broke.

Great Last Minute Vaca!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were able to book this rental at the last minute. I was a little skeptical, but it exceeded my expectations. The view was amazing, and the condo had everything we needed--including a washer/dryer. The pool and hot tub were a hit with our teens. The property was clean except for the tub in the main bathroom. I am hoping it was just an oversight. I found cleaner under the sink in the kitchen and cleaned it, since we arrived late to the property and were ready to take showers. The property was well-maintained and I would be happy to stay here again. There was an incident where someone knocked on our window and door at 1:00 am. I wasn't sure who to call about that. I would recommend leaving a phone number for after hour problems or issues. We drove to the public beach most days, because it was larger and maintained. We used the property beach access in the evenings to look for sharks and dolphins. Gulf Shores Rentals, Inc. was pleasant to do business with and I could take care of everything online, which was very convenient and appreciated!
