Nice stay. Short drive to beach

We had a great trip and this unit suited our needs. The property was clean and the beds were soft. Its close to the beach and even closer to the outlet mall. The pool was clean as well. Having a washer and dryer was definitely a perk. I would stay here again

A Great Place For The Family!

My family and I stayed for about a week. The place was clean and comfy. Everyone in the condo was really nice, and having the pool was perfect for my youngest. We were there everyday! We felt very welcomed. It is also so close to everything! We highly recommend staying here if you are visiting the Gulf!

Softball middle

We came here to play softball. The apartment was just as described. It had everything we needed to sleep, eat, and wash uniforms. It is conveniently located in the middle to access Orange Beach sportsplex to Foley and across the road from Gulf Shores softball fields. Very good communication to checkin to checkout. Would recommend staying here.

Outdated Condos

The unit was listed with tv dvd combo in bedrooms there was only one tv with dvd and it was a 13inch in master bedroom with a bed that wobbled and old wicker furniture. Everything in unit was outdated and old. Middle bedroom had twin beds that was wobbling every time you sit on it. Couldn't open windows in unit. Had to share wi-fi with all the other unit rented by owner so you had to beat other tenets to connect or you wouldn't get any service! Owner and complex was nice! Just needs some sprucing up for the price charged furniture and everything inside was poor quality!

Great Host and Clean Condo

Pros: The host was very responsive and nice. The condo was clean and it had everything we needed from utensils, coffee, dish soap, etc. The bed slept very well and the TV had basic channels. The location was convenient and close to the beach and major stores and restaurants. I enjoyed my stay here. Con: 1) Wifi is available but the strength of the signal remains either weak or poor. If you need wifi for a quick internet search you should be able to do so. However if you are looking to stream videos their will be constant buffering. 2) This is outside of the host control but their where kids running and making noise upstairs that may disturb you at times. It did not bother me because I am use to kids, if your not, it may bother you. Overall I would rate my stay a 4 out of 5!

Amazing short experience

This trip was cut short due to the property management choosing our week to completely replace siding on the unit and do other exterior renovations. Although we did not stay, the unit was exactly as pictured with plenty of room for our family. The communication with Karen was outstanding and we were floored at the way she went above and beyond to help us during the transition…she was a blessing to us!

Amazing

My daughter, my friend and her kids went to Gulf Shores Alabama for Spring Break. We are teachers and truly needed to get away :-) The place was exactly what we wanted and it was as it showed in the pictures and the description for the condo. We would recommend this property and the owner without hesitation. Thank you for a wonderful time!

Short stay

Overall condo was good. It was pretty clean. Hard to locate building at night when first arrived. Didn’t have many tv channels. TVs were tiny. Didn’t like how we have to drive in the car with our garage to take trash out. Twin bed mattress were not comfortable. Otherwise good stay.

Wonderful place!

Unfortunately my family and I weren’t here for vacation, but evacuated from hurricane Ida. I can’t say enough wonderful things about the owner; she was so kind, responsive and helpful as I asked for updates for when to check in and how long to stay due to lack of power and water. Highly recommend this place just based on the owner herself! The condo is extremely clean and nicely decorated. We had everything my family (including twin toddler boys) needed for several days including kitchen amenities, lots of space, and a nice porch the boys enjoyed playing in. A short drive to the beach and close to stores and the outlet mall. We’d definitely visit again for an actual vacation!!
