Excellent Stay

Our condo was very clean and well taken care of. The kitchen was very well equipped. We had NO problems at all. In fact, the ice maker wasnt working and Paula informed me of this before our arrival. She had bought a countertop ice maker to be sure that we had ice!! Hopefully I can book the same condo next year.

Gulf Shores Getaway

Great visit! Condo was clean and cheerful, view was superb! Close to everything. Plenty of space for all four us. Host quickly responded to any questions I had. Parking and check in were easy. Host provided me with info on renting beach chairs and umbrellas which I highly recommend. Our chairs and umbrellas were set up and waiting for us each morning. It was a great getaway for us!

A piece of paradise

We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful condo! Beautiful view and easy access to the beach. It was walking distance to a few restaurants and places we went. Paula, the hostess, is wonderful! She was available to answer a few questions we had and told us to let her know if we had any problems. We would definitely stay here again!

San Carlos

We loved staying at San Carlos because they are super friendly and a really clean facility. The condo was really nice on the inside and the beds was really comfortable. There is lots of space for everyone to spread out in as well.

Perfect for our little family!

My family of four fit perfectly here! We stayed during spring break and I was concerned about Spring breakers initially, but they screen their guests well. The condo was clean, well stocked, and easy to access. Communication with the manager about general questions was easy and she responded quickly. 10/10 recommend! We will definitely be saving this one for future trips!

Beyond expectations

I’ve stayed at several condos on in GulfShores, but this place has much more to offer. The view was beautiful! The sunrises were unbelievably gorgeous. The location was absolutely perfect and convenient to all of GulfShores amenities as well as a short drive to Orange Beach. I found the Gulf waters in front of the condo to be an amazing crystal emerald green. Check in was easy as was purchasing the parking passes and printing them. I liked that there was great security inside the complex that views monitors and makes rounds. Communication with the mower was quick and easy with timely responses. The balcony was oversized and allowed for dining and lounging. I would definitely recommend this rental property based on years of comparisons to similar rentals in the area.

Would recommend property, but not the property owner

After check-in, the property owner said if we bought 2 parking passes she would reimburse me for them. She explained her policies hadn't been updated on VRBO, but said since I had an email saying there was no extra fee for parking passes, she would uphold the email. We bought the parking passes, and she never paid us as she said she would. I sent screenshots to VRBO, who was kind and attempted to help multiple times by contacting her. Despite VRBO emailing her more than once, instructing her to reimburse fees as she had said she would, she didn't do so. Also, the contract was sent to us two hours before check-in. This could be a problem for those not comfortable with technology. I had to screenshot the contract and sign it with my finger (on my phone), then screenshot that to send as a file to property owner, in order to get the code for check-in. This would be easier for most travelers to get ahead of time, so it can be printed and read easier (rather than on a phone, traveling to a destination site), then signed to scan/email. The property itself is in a prime location. Directly on water/ocean view. Master bedroom bed could use updating. It squeaks when you sit or move. Master bathroom was huge. Other areas are nice, as well. Some supplies were broken, but we didn't need them, so that was fine. Fridge was broken. Told property manager as soon as we checked in. Was the next day before someone to showed up to fix it, but we put our food in cooler until then and the repair man was super nice!

About the host

Hosted by Paula Gaughan

Host profile image
I have always loved the beach! I will be a phone call away to ensure you have a wonderful vacation on the sugary white sands of the Gulf. I have always wanted to have vacation property on the beach and am excited to be the property owner and manager. I take great care of our vacation home and want to have guests that will enjoy it and take care of it, too!

Why they chose this property

I have vacationed on the Gulf all of my life and believe our Condo is in a beautiful location and the San Carlos is a beautiful building. Also it has three elevators that are faster than the others that I toured! The quality of the furniture and decorations was greater than the others. Two of the bedrooms have their private full bathroom and the other one has access from the bedroom to the bath and hall. The master bedroom is large and has a double vanity and walk in closet, as well as a large bathroom with a double sink vanity, tile shower and tub with jets.

What makes this property unique

Since this condo is on the 12th floor, it has the best view of the Gulf of all the ones I was shown. Great views from the Living room, Dining room, kitchen, and Master bedroom. The balcony was also larger than most of the condos I visited which was very important to me. It is also within walking distance to restaurants and shopping. The A/C has an air cleaning system for people with allergies!
