  Kathy S from Mt Pleasant, TX does not recommend this vacation rental.

  The condo was very small. We only had 1 roll of toilet paper and 2 towels provided per bedroom although we stayed 4 nights with 4 people.

  • Manager Responded on 8/3/2023

    We do not provide any more than 1 roll of toilet paper per bathroom, one roll of paper towels, and there is always one towel per allowed occupancy. We send out countless information regarding things we do not provide. -Gulf Shores Rentals

  The realty company was professional, wouldn’t say kind...but it worked. Was a little confusing with “must download APP” but then they didn’t really use it, used text and email instead. But we figured it out.
  The condo at Surf Side Shores was very convenient to everything, most importantly the beach! View was great of pool and beach.
  Condo itself was basic. Lacked in storage, but had the basics. Just glad we only stayed 3 nights. Couch was not comfortable for sitting, cushion was just gone. Probably should be replaced. It would be nice to have some rugs....would make more homey. The balcony was nice. Had basic furniture. Bath towels were cheap and rough, Condo needs a broom, but again, no big deal. I was surprised you could hear through the walls...neighbors but also water running through pipes.
  Overall, the stay was okay, we won’t stay at this specific condo again.

    The app is being phased out, so there are not a lot of information needed on it. We do send all necessary information in advance and on the day of arrival, so guests have everything needed. We would love to host them again in one of our other 150+ properties, so we hope they call us for their next visit. Any maintenance and housekeeping issues will be passed along to that department to be corrected. At Gulf Shores Rentals, we are always looking to improve our properties to ensure an enjoyable stay for our guests. Thank you! -Gulf Shores Rentals

  Great location and it's the perfect distance from the ocean. It was clean and reasonably priced. The property was also kept clean and well maintained. I wish the master bed was a little more comfortable, but I would consider returning to stay again regardless.

  This was our 21st winter in Gulf shores. Our unit was a little to small for us and we will be staying at a differnt unit next year. We recomend that they install a hand hold in bathroom with the tub.

  The condo was comfortable and in good condition. We enjoyed mornings on the balcony and loved that we were steps from the beach. Location is close to town for shopping, dining and activities.

  Alicia T from Jefferson City, MO does not recommend this vacation rental.

  Need a broom! An investment in better patio furniture would also be ideal. We didn’t spend much time on the balcony because one chair was already broken so we didn’t trust the quality of the plastic table or chairs. The comforter in the guest bedroom was also stained by something red/pink as well as some of the pillows

  • Manager Responded on 6/17/2021

    This unit has been furnished with brand new patio furniture, a new comforter, and a new coffee pot as of 6-17-21.

  Kelly L from Bowling Green, KY does not recommend this vacation rental.

  I would not rent this particular condo again!! It needed a good cleaning. After arriving we noticed our feet were black from walking inside the condo barefoot. I took a paper towel and wiped one square on the floor and it was disgusting. The ceiling fan blades had a dust coating them, bathroom light bulbs were out (both bathrooms), exhaust fan in front bathroom sounded horrible, cushion on deck lounge chair needs replaced (black spots/mold?) and the coffee pot could not be used!! It appeared to be new but the tray where the coffee grounds go was jammed and could not be pulled out.

  • Manager Responded on 10/27/2020

    Thank you for taking the time to review us and our property and share your memories. Our company has an excellent housekeeping reputation but we do realize mistakes can be made especially so soon after a disaster such as Hurricane Sally which did not give us the opportunity to perform the annual fall deep clean. It is our policy to address any reported housekeeping issues or maintenance issue as quickly as possible; when allowed to do so. The condo has since been deep cleaned, a new exhaust fan installed and will also have the tile/grout professionally cleaned in the spring. We hope that you will consider staying with us again.

  Complex was very clean, easy beach access, and nice bbq area. Parking wasn’t great, but it was the July 4th. They did have another area to park about a block away.
