  Melanie C from Bethlehem, GA recommends this vacation rental

  This was the best place for a Fall Break getaway for my husband and I! It was perfect for two people and had everything we needed. The views were great and the access to the beach was convenient. The only problem we had was that the cable had been disconnected and we could not watch the college football games at night. We would definitely stay there again though!

  Cozy one bedroom unit just across a quiet two lane street from the beach. View of the Gulf from the balcony. Unit was spotless clean and nicely decorated. Unit has basics for cooking simple meals. Less than a minute walk to the beach-closer than some of the giant complexes that are beach front. Excellent for a couple with small children. Nice pool, hot tub, tennis courts and boat docks in the back of the property. Parking was plentiful.

Quieter, less traffic, yet conveniently situated to get to where we wanted to go easily and within close rang to where we wanted to go. Unit was clean, in good working order and nicely decorated. We liked the sunlight that came in through the patio doors and window. Great view as well.

  This was our 2nd stay in 301A in 3 years. It was just as neat, clean, and maintained as the previous visit. I like that it's right at the top of the steps. The building does have some new elevators now, and that is nice. The beach is MUCH narrower than it used to be, and that made it much more crowded. We probably won't be back next year because of that. Hopefully that will be repaired soon. But the unit and the building remain AWESOME. We've stayed at the Surf and Racquet club for nearly 10 years. When the beach is restored, we'll be back.

  Property was exactly as described. Perfect for 2 on a short stay. Clean and well prepared. Comfortable bed, nice sheets and ample towels in the bathroom.
  The Gulf Shores area may be the nicest beaches anywhere. Local restaurant choices provide a great variety. We stick to seafood and weren't disappointed. Not clear to me why the property needs to charge $25 for a parking permit. Maybe to pay to have the lot repaved. Railings on the beautiful pier would be nice.

  Such a cozy spot for time by the beach. Decor is up to date and furnished with everything needed for an enjoyable time of relaxation. Enjoyed the pool and hot tub, and walks on the boardwalk to watch the sun set. Perfect for a couple or girls trip since the bedroom area is not closed from the rest of the space.
  Very enjoyable and would stay again.

  Brad S from Sherman, TX recommends this vacation rental

  This was about our tenth stay in or around Gulf Shores, the 6th time at the Surf & Racquet club, and this unit is at or near the top! The unit has been decorated by someone with very nice taste. It was impeccably clean, and while we wiped everything down to be sure it was sanitary, we appreciated the smell that told us the cleaning crew had already done the same thing!
  The unit had the best equipped kitchen of ANY unit we've stayed in. My wife, an outstanding cook, even said it was as good as her own!
  The furniture was all in outstanding shape. The king size bed was nice, but it was a tight fit in that room. There's no door isolating the bedroom from the rest of the unit, so if you have a guest, you won't get any privacy...
  The only item we went to buy was an extension cord. (And more TP!) If you want to plug something in on the long counter-top over the dishwasher, there's no outlet. We had brought along our Instapot, and we needed the extension cord to use it. No big deal.
  Not sure where we're going next summer, but if we return to Gulf Shores, this unit is high on our list!
