Nice place. Loved the balcony. Good beach access and located near a lot of places you can walk to. Tight fit for 8 people. Not enough living room space for everyone to sit together. King bed was not put together properly. All cooking/baking stuff is old. Host was responsive and friendly.

everything about the place was excellent, only complaint was the dryer doesn’t dry good. we had to dry our clothes more than once & the metal bars that go across the bottom of the bed frame were bent/ broken so there is a dip in the bed where you lay your head but overall everything was excellent!!

Really enjoyed our family stay, the rooms were nice and as described. The pool attached to our building’s heater wasn’t working so we had to go to the far pool or be a bit cold in the close pool. A minor inconvenience in the end but didn’t really impact our stay. Would recommend the unit.

Overall was a great stay!
The condo was great and the location is awesome! There were some dishes in the cabinets that had food on them and the bunk bed needs to be fixed.

Can’t beat location
Close to the beach, shops, and The Hangout. The master bed was very loud and squeaky on one side and had uneven support.

Great place to Stay
This condo was everything we wanted/needed for a family vacation. It was close enough for us to walk down to the hangout and Gulf place for the kids to play. The pool was perfect and the property was super clean! The only thing our condo didn’t have was a broom so there was literally sand everywhere lol! We enjoyed this place and will be back next year!

Cute place and great location
Loved our little condo with beach views and super easy beach access! It was easy to find and pretty quiet. Easy to get to everything in gulf shores. The kitchen is pretty well stocked. Only downside was the king mattress which is concave and not comfortable. Also, the mattresses on the sofa beds are really only for small children because they’re thin and springy

There were roaches in the floor, sand in the beds, sand in the floor, the door did not lock properly and was scared throughout our stay due to it would come unlocked. Door was left, unlocked several times due to malfunction in the keypad. Definitely needs work! Also dishes were dirty in the cabinets.

We walked into a bag of garbage as the welcome bag. The air conditioner wasn't working when we got there. It took until day three of our seven day vacation to get it fixed. No compensation was offered no apology given. My family has used beach ball for several years. And we will not be using it again.

Description a little misleading
The description is a little misleading. The 2nd bedroom has bunk beds as described, but only a single pullout chair, not a double as listed and no sheets for it were provided. The top bunk can only hold 175lbs according to the sign on the walk beside it, so it really just holds 1 person. The dryer only works for about 10min before overheating so it takes a long time to dry anything! I reported it, but no one ever came to fix it. The property is for sale so we had to have an appraiser do an inspection while we were there too. Parking is not included and is 100 extra. All were just minor inconveniences, but inconveniences just the same.

Vacation
The place seemed clean, then if you walked barefoot, the bottom of your feet were instant black.
The toilet would make a loud noise at 430am everyday. We had someone come look at it, but neevr did anything.
The bunkbed in room was wobbly and broken under the top bunk, the maintenence couldnt fix it so my kids were very careful.
My daughter was on her way down to beach to us and maintenance stopped her and told her we couldnt use shower by kitchen cus it was leaking into unit under us and thst he was going i to our place to take pictures and leave a note. When we got back to our room, the door was left unlocked by maintenance and all our money and cards wverything was in there. There was also no note left. When i went to office to talk to them about it they had no idea they were coming to pur room, so i called the host, they also said they were unaware.
Other then fhat we loved the location. In walking distance to beach, food, and shopping.
