  Unit was very clean and in order. Was a little older than I thought it would be, but it was fine. Arrival experience was great. Got the email with the code or text. Not sure. I think it was both but anyway easy entrance and exit very satisfied would definitely do it again.

  Overall our stay was great. The location is perfect and the parking was easy.
  The unit is older and could use a refresh with flooring (it is hard to keep the sand cleaned up on the tile and grout). The washer and dryer are so small. I could do 2 beach towels at a time and that was it (they had to dry twice).
  The kitchen has everything you could need. Pans, pot, and many dishes so you don’t have to do dishes all the time.
  The balcony has a great view!

  Great price, great location. Some suggestions: replace the broken dishes (measuring cups), make sure silverware is clean before putting them away. Fix the hole in the ceiling. And make sure the elevators are working properly. The security guard at one point stopped the elevator while we were inside. Vacuum the lint behind dryer filter out. We still had a great time and would love to rent it again if the minor things are taken care of.

  a guest from Hopkinsville, KY recommends this vacation rental

  The experience was good overall. Loved the location and the convenience. The refrigerator seemed to not be working great. The refrigerator didn’t cool that well and the freezer didn’t seem to keep our food frozen. One of the bunk beds was sandy when we arrived. The elevator was not working one night when we returned from dinner but it was fixed by the next morning. The kids loved the pool and I loved how close the wall was to the beach. Was just steps away and the shower location was extremely helpful as well.

  Lauren E from WORTH, IL recommends this vacation rental

  The location of the condo was great! The restaurants in the area were awesome! The lot security were very friendly. We did not speak to the property manager while we were there. It was great having a washer and dryer even though they were mini. We really did not use the pool but there were many families in there throughout our stay.
  
  We did use the play and stay but most of the places did not offer free tickets or discounted, so I would not use that as a deciding factor.
  
  The property was clean and they did provide a roll of toilet paper, paper towels, mini dish soap and sponge, 2 garbage bags, 2 dishwasher tablets and one package of laundry soap, which was nice, which was a surprise from the description. It would have been great to have a spray for the counter top.
  
  The condo could use some repairs: the cabinet doors could use tightening, the left side of the stove didn't seem to work well, there seemed to be a leak in the washer/dryer area and possible mold spot on the ceiling in the hallway by the kitchen. Definitely need a curtain on the bedroom window, it was so bright in there when it was dark out because of the hallway light. There were some tiles missing from the balcony and there is almost no storage for your luggage and clothes.

  Location was great, pool was well kept but the condo could use a few upgrades. Some of the cabinet doors had clearly seen better days and there are a few questionable mold looking spots on the ceiling. Also, the fact that there isn’t some sort of blackout curtain/screen in the main bedroom is insane. The hall light shines in the bedroom all night long and keeps it practically like daylight. I don’t know how anyone can sleep through that. Would go from good to great with just a few improvements.

  The condo is pretty good. Not in great shape but was on the beach and very convenient, and it was clean. Almost every other VRBO I have stayed in will have the basics - salt, pepper, trash bags, etc. This place had ONE small roll of toilet paper and paper towels. So that makes for extra stuff you have to purchase at the store, even if you're only there a few days.

  a guest from Paducah, KY does not recommend this vacation rental.

  This condo needs a good deep clean on the floors, walls, baseboards etc. We cleaned the doorknobs, faucets and countertops, etc with our own supplies.There was only a pod style coffee maker so we had to buy a regular coffee pot. The elevator smelled so bad we sprayed it with lysol and I noticed the inspection sticker in elevator was expired. I was satisfied with my stay because I love Gulf shores and the location of the condo was good. I never expect them to be very clean and always take cleaning supplies with me. The early(before 10) checkout instructions said to check out by the app or call office to leave a message. Called office at 6:30 am and answering service said office does not open till 8 and they cannot take a message. So was forced to use the app and it took several times to get the APP to work correctly. They need to make it clear on the instructions given that you can only call to check out early if you are calling at 8am or after.The outside of the building needs some paint and sprucing up.

  • Manager Responded on 8/21/2021

    Hello! I spoke with my supervisor and it sounds like you chose the "emergency" option when calling our after hours service. We get "non-emergency" voicemails directly to our office phone that are checked 7 days a week. Deep cleans are done in the off season and we have had a very busy season with Covid restrictions being lifted. If you had called our office, we could've brought you a new coffee pot compatible with the coffee supplies you brought. We cannot fix what we are not aware of. Your maintenance issues will be passed along to that department to be corrected. We are always looking to improve our properties to ensure an enjoyable stay for our guests.

  Honestly it was amazing! The condo was clean and beautiful, porch was great! Pool area flooded a little but it’s a pool so I wasn’t upset! So close to everything! Over all just really happy with west winds! Only down fall the elevator had a carpet floor mat that had an odor to it and my over active imagination when alone in elevator had me feeling like a creepy crazy was about to attack! But again you could tell it was for a reason and you can only help it when it gets wet so much!

  Condo was just okay, cleaning could have been better, I wish these places would do quarterly deep cleaning, the cleaning fees should more than cover. This is an old property and looks like it needs a rehab, next time will stay at a newer and nicer looking place.

  Happy with the rental unit and the location. A little unhappy with the rental company as my father in law passed away while we were there and had to check out a few days early. I am pretty sure the rental company put someone else in there and never checked us out as I got a reminder to check out a few days after we left. Never expected any money back just mad that we would have been financially responsible for any damages. And the fact they couldn’t wait for us to “check out”

  • Manager Responded on 12/22/2020

    Thank you for your review. The check out reminder is automated, from an add on software that is not integrated to recognize changes to departure dates. We are very sorry that you had to cut your stay short and would refund any monies due if the property rebooked. We hope to see you again in the future.

  My daughters only request for this trip was to stay on the beach with a view of the Gulf. This condo delivers that ! That’s always the first thing we do when we get to our condo is go to the balcony and look out. I stay on the balcony most of the time and take in the breathtaking views. The condo was clean and check in and check out was easy. There were four of us in the unit and it was big enough for us. The bed was super comfy which is a big plus when you are away from home. I can’t really say anything bad. We were pleased with our stay. The location was also great. The pool was a little small but right on the beach. Our two 14 yr olds travelled back and forth from the pool to the beach all day with no complaints. We also used the grill one night. I would recommend this condo if you are planning on staying in Gulf Shores.
