This was a return trip for us. We returned because it’s such a great place to stay and we were not disappointed.The condo was clean and spacious. A big plus was having our boat there. Everyone was great!

This property is set in a quiet area, west of the hustle and bustle of GS on a quiet bay where you will find dolphins passing through if you're looking for them. It was always exciting to see them.
This unit was comfortable and we enjoyed our stay there.
The property management team was prompt in returning calls when we had questions.
We called maintenance for a quick fix of a pocket door and they arrived quickly and fixed the door for us.
The kitchen is not set up for someone who is looking for a chef's style kitchen. The utensils and kitchenware are more suited for basic meal prep.

This condo worked out really nice for our nine family members with plenty of room for everyone. It was clean, comfortable and beautifully furnished. In the past we’ve stayed directly on the beach, but glad we didn’t. Being on the bay gave us a chance to do different things. We brought our boat and found little private beaches and docked at LuLu’s to eat! The guys got to fish off the dock and got to watch a beautiful sunset! The grandkids really enjoyed the pool!! We also took the short trip to the nice public beach. Grocery stores and restaurants were close by. Very enjoyable stay!

When I originally booked this place, I was skeptical. Pictures can be deceiving. But this place was just as shown in the pictures, and honestly better. It was a cozy quiet location. Away from the busy night life in Gulf Shores. Everyone there was super friendly. Definitely worth the $$ spent! Super clean, and lots of dishes/pots to utilize for your need. Would definitely look into this hidden gem again!!

This place was very clean and well maintained. My dad and husband enjoyed the fishing, they have a wonderful set up for fishing and docking boats. It's not in the hustle and bustle of the main town (which we loved) but still very convenient. It was less than a 10 minute drive to the beach, shopping and attractions. The pool was closed the entire week we were there and they failed to notify us of this until we checked in, the exercise room was not usable either. The pool was one of the big reasons we chose this place, we have 5 kids and they love to swim, so this was a huge disappointment. The parking in the garage was a nightmare. It took us 5 minutes to pull up, back up and try to fit my suburban in the small parking spot after we was told we had to park one vehicle in the spot and not in the parking lot. The residents that stay there permanently were very nice and helpful, since the agency we rented through was not very helpful. We had 3 bedroom, 3 bath and it was very spacious and nice, very pretty decorations, comfortable beds, nice bathrooms, the patio was amazing with screen and a view of the bay.

Overall the stay was good. Liked the size and layout of the condo as well as the location. The bed in the master was very firm and uncomfortable. The king bed in the other bedroom is comfortable but very worn. Currently the pool and gym were closed which was a disappointment. We had three children who wanted to swim. If these things are addressed we would definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay in Gulf Shores! The property was exactly as described. It was peaceful and quite at the condo and the pier was awesome for fishing and watching the dolphins. This location is perfect especially if you want to feel secluded from the tourist area but on the other hand are only a 7 minute drive from being in the middle of it all! The beach was beautiful and clean. We would love to come back for another vacation with our family! We truly had an amazing trip!

July 2020 Stay
So nice and spacious. Location was perfect! It was just a couple miles from the beach, restaurants and souvenir shops. Kids loved the pool and the men enjoyed the fishing pier. Mosquitos were really bad so the screened in balcony and pool were greatly appreciated. See you again next year!

Not quite clean enough
The condo itself was lovely, but not as clean as we hoped. There was a used band-aid on one of the beds, the bath mats were dirty, many light bulbs were burned out. The worst problem was the mattress in the first bedroom. It was absolutely horrible! Overall, we did enjoy our stay, just a few things need some improvement.

Nice location and set-up
Overall, we had a decent experience. We LOVED the screaned in balcony and pool. The check-in process was pretty seamless as well.
There was a miscommunication with parking passes that was super frustrating and there were no accommodations that could be made despite me being super clear with the lady I spoke with prior to our trip, and speaking to two different people several times while there and being told their hands were tied.
One of the big reasons I chose this condo (especially during covid) was because they detailed their cleaning practices in the description and the reviews about cleanliness seemed good. This condo was not clean. There was a sticky substance that smelled like syrup in the kitchen on the coffe pot, knife holder, and one other spot I can't remember. This tells me all the surfaces aren't even being wiped. Floors weren't clean. Kids feet were black after 5 minutes. Also in the back master the bed frame behind the mattress was full of dust and hair. Overall, if this property were cleaned properly we would have been much happier with our stay.

Enjoyable stay
The property was very nice and well equipped. The bedrooms were huge and both families had plenty of space. My husband and son both loved the fishing pier; however, it was about a 15 minute drive to the beach.

Beds
The place is beautiful and laid out very nice . The only complaint is the beds are not comfortable at all .I would definitely stay here all the time if the mattress were changed out .

Reviewer Comments:
For the large group we had. Condo was just right. Having a Marina in the back was very nice. Had are boat there. And was great and easy axis. A few bumps but all was taken care of. 1 A group that was there smoking marijuana, when I got in the elevator the smell was overwhelming. But issue was addressed. And last day someone pulls smoke alarm at 7am. But besides that all was great. Loved the owners. Very nice and welcoming. Thank u all again for making are little reunions special.
