Lovely Condo

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: This condo was a great spot for our girls getaway. We had one rainy day and the open windows were great to watch the rain and relax. Loved being on the 19th floor. Great views! Condo was clean and exactly as pictured.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Property was nice and had great beach access, but did not disclose that both the indoor and outdoor pool were out of service. It was also missing a hair dryer and had some broken chairs upon arrival.

Very disappointed

I don’t like being negative but this place was a complete let down. When we arrived, none of the elevators worked, making us walk up 19 floors with all of our luggage. They would fix them and then they would break again. When they would work, you would have to wait 10 minutes for the elevator to come down. There were 2 pools, neither of them open. The gym was closed. The whole property was under construction and no one told us. The air in our condo didn’t get below 70 (good luck to anyone who books it this summer.) Shower pressure about tore off your skin or hardly worked at all. It was such a let down, especially after being so excited for this trip for the past 6 months. The pictures on here of the condo would have you completely fooled.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location was nice but that’s about all this unit has going for it. Cleanliness was horrible (don't use the ice or water from refrigerator, there’s mold in there), furnishings are very worn and stained, and they failed to mention in the pre arrival email to bring basically everything you need to cook with (there wasn’t even a spatula but three keurigs!) Disappointed!

Lots of little things

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Parking is horrible at this building. The dryer had to run through multiple cycles to dry clothes. The AC struggled to maintain 72 degrees, the oven didn’t function properly when attempting to not use the convection feature, one the two elevators was down for a day and a half which cause 20+ minute waits.

Spot on reviews

I left a list of things needing improved on We needed 3 king size beds and only got 2, listed for 3. Which was main reason we ignored the bad reviews. However they was spot on. I feel like with all the bad reviews those should of been resolved and hadn’t been. That’s just laziness and disrespectful to your guest staying in what could be a really nice condo. I don’t think the fun and sun package is very good. Better house keeping and beach supplies would be more accommodating. View was outstanding

Worn out & Dirty

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Nothing worse than traveling all night to get to your condo that rents for $500ish a night to walk into dirty nasty grim everywhere. Walls and trim destroyed with 3" of grim on the edge of tile. Light switches covered in grim. Dryer did not work well and they came to "fix" it. Didn't work as the pipes are full of lint. After going to Target to buy all new pillows and bed sheets we felt like we could sleep in the beds. All remotes were dead and the condo just lacked all amenities you'd expect like a spatula to flip an egg or hot sandwich. Furniture was worn out and needs to be replaced. We thought about what we would do if we own this until and we both said we'd replace everything. We were blessed with jackhammering above us on Sunday morning at 8AM. We didn't mind it later in the day as we were at the beach but they didn't wait and we couldn't hear ourselves talk

Beautiful views and elegant taste but.....

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. 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: This place is nice! 2 balconies, beautiful views of the ocean and bay plus its location is great!On the flip side..Its a little pricey for the sq footage.NO BATHROOM DOOR of the main bedroomThe shower head pressure in the guest and main bathroom was so hard that it hurt to shower.The dryer barely worked. Had to run 3 cycles to dry 4 towels.MOST IMPORTANTLY!!!!!!!!If you drive anything the size of a SUV or larger plan to have a HARD or almost impossible time parking on the property. You can only park downstairs or across the street in Free Public Parking. If its peak season or during a event/concert its gonna suck. Gulf Shore Rentals asked me to "go eat somewhere and come back" after driving 9hrs to get there.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. 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 itself was nice. The cleaning job, not so great. Immediately upon check-in, we noticed several things that were filthy. I'm not one to be petty, so I won't list all the things we found. Suffice it to say that for $4500/wk, I expect it to be spotless. Other than that, we had a great stay. The accommodations were nice. It needs a little more maintenance on little things. But we really liked how quiet the place was with only 3 units per floor. I'd sray here again, but the housekeeping needs to pay more attention to detail.

Nice corner condo

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 enjoyed staying in this condo. It was spacious and fit the 8 of us perfectly. I loved how there was a balcony from every bedroom. Beautiful view of the water. It was clean and kept up. It was nice to be right on the beach. There are 2 pools you can use, one outdoor and one indoor, both are nice. The beds were nice and comfortable. There is a washer and dryer available for use, but the dryer takes FOREVER. We wanted to wash our towels we had been using and it took several hours tor them to dry. There were a few things we didn’t care for, but it didn’t ruin our trip, by any means. The TV was not working in one of the rooms. There is no door separating the bathroom from the master bedroom. Which was such a strange thing. So showering and using the restroom was not very private. The handles of several of the doors were sticky, as if they just hadn’t been wiped down when it was cleaned. The water went out in the unit(and the entire building) one afternoon, but it was fixed fairly promptly. We did have issues with parking on site. The first day we were there we ended up having to park in public parking due to there not being any parking available on the ground level. My husband and myself have large vehicles and could not go up the ramp for the parking garage. It is stated in SEVERAL areas for smaller vehicles to park on the higher levels. There were compact cars parked on the ground level!! It was very inconsiderate of these people to not park on the higher levels. There’s a security guard that can ask them to move, but can’t make them. Therefore forcing people with larger vehicles to park offsite. Which is ridiculous. There were PLENTY of parking spots available on the upper levels. Something needs to change when it comes to that. Overall we had a great stay, we loved eating our breakfast and drinking our coffee on the balcony each day. Plenty of room for all 8 of us. We never felt like we were o

Great stay at a beautiful place

The condo was even better looking and bigger than the pictures. Of course there were miscellaneous things that were needed/being worked on, but that’s expected due to the hurricane damage that Gulf Shores experienced. The place was pretty quiet and peaceful and both elevators were working, so all in all - a pretty nice stay!

Complex leaves a lot to be desired

Condo itself was nice very nicely decorated but the complex is horrible. Construction noise of drilling and hammering woke us up each morning at 7am. only one elevator worked the entire week —and waited as long as 30 minutes for an elevator because construction crew had turned it off. No service elevators. One night at 3:07am fire alarm went off had to evacuate & walk down 19 floors only to be told it was a false alarm and that there was a wire loose that caused the alarm. Then everyone had only one elevator to return to their condos. When I called to express concern about elevator and construction noise someone at the homeowners association hung up on me. Never even got an apology. Parking is very tight. Will never stay at island towers again. Plan on telling anyone I can not to book at this complex Never again at this location!!
