The Space:
Get stoked for the ultimate beachfront escape at this epic two-bedroom, two-bath condo perched on the 6th floor of the SW building in Orange Beach! With jaw-dropping Gulf views, a prime spot right on the sand, and high-end updates throughout, this place is all about good vibes and salty breezes.
The open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area creates the perfect space for kicking back with family and friends. Decked out in soft white and pale gray tones, the vibe here is calm, cool, and totally relaxing. The kitchen is fully stocked with updated appliances, sleek countertops, and all the essentials for whipping up your favorite beachside meals. From the kitchen window, you’ll catch awesome views of Ole River, while the living room’s floor-to-ceiling windows serve up endless Gulf scenery.
Kick back at the stylish dining table or grab a seat at the kitchen bar, but if you really want to soak in paradise, take your meal out on the private balcony and enjoy the view—if you’re lucky, you might even spot some playful dolphins! There’s also a wet bar for mixing up your favorite drinks, and the wall-mounted smart TV in the living room is ready for game days or movie nights. Need a little throwback fun? The kitchen bar is home to a gaming system loaded with old-school video games, complete with two Xbox controllers—perfect for a friendly showdown before heading to the beach. And when it’s time to wind down, the huge, cozy sofa pulls out into a king-size sleeper with a plush memory foam mattress, meaning no uncomfortable bars across the back—just sweet, beachy dreams!
Step outside onto the private balcony, the ultimate chill spot for sipping your morning coffee with a sunrise view or a cool drink while watching the sun dip into the horizon. The salty breeze and rolling waves make every moment feel straight out of a postcard.
The master bedroom is a dreamy retreat with a king-size bed, a flat-screen smart TV, and an ensuite bathroom for extra privacy. Best of all, it has direct balcony access, so you can wake up to the sound of the waves. The guest bedroom features a queen-size bed, its own flat-screen TV, and a private bathroom, making it perfect for extra guests.
This unit also comes with a full-size washer and dryer, so you can keep your beach gear fresh all vacation long. Outside, you’ll find two pools—one Gulf-front for oceanfront swims and another across the street near the boat ramps.
Bringing a boat? Wind Drift offers boat slips on Ole River across the street, along with parking for boats, jet skis, and trailers. Spaces are first-come, first-served, and there’s a small fee for using the slips and parking.
Whether you’re here to hit the waves, chill by the pool, or cruise the waterways, this Orange Beach condo is the ultimate spot to soak up the sun, surf, and laid-back Gulf vibes. Pack your flip-flops, grab your crew, and get ready for an unforgettable stay!

We had a wonderful beach vacation! The condo had everything we needed and more! It was clean and comfortable. The view from the balcony is the fantastic! We’re already planning our next trip!
My friend and I enjoyed our girls trip. The beach was great and it was nice that we could rent chairs and an umbrella. We liked the quietness of the building and met some of the friendly owners. The patio furniture was a little heavy and large which made it hard to get around on the patio. Otherwise, we loved the condo and had a great stay. Thank you
We so enjoyed our stay at Wind Drift 611SW! The condo is exactly as advertised and has everything you need for a great stay. Loved the balcony in the mornings! Everything was clean and new - we will definitely be back!
Very quaint, not super crowed. Loved the condo and the view, right on the beach. Loved drinking coffee and watching the water every morning.

Stay at the beach
It was a nice condo. There was only one small frying pan which made cooking a little difficult. The condo was dark on the inside. Overall it was a nice location and an enjoyable stay.
Thank you for sharing your property in Orange Beach with us! We had great time. The property was as listed, well maintained and well stocked our family loved the location. Look forward to returning again.
We recently spent a few days at this condo for our 44th anniversary and absolutely loved it! The condo was just as described. It was so clean, updated, and was decorated beautifully. We had a wonderful time sitting on the balcony watching the dolphins and walking along the beach. We hope to stay there again soon!
We had such a lovely time. The condo was so clean, bed was comfortable and we loved the patio furniture. Thank you for opening up your home and look forward to the next trip!
Condo was very clean and modern. The views from the 6th floor were great. We saw a lot of dolphin from the balcony. We felt very comfortable staying here. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks!!!
My husband and I chose to stay at this property for our 25th wedding anniversary. The unit was beyond what I expected. Everything was beautiful, clean and updated. I wish I could live there forever!!
First trip to AL coast and this location and condo did not disappoint. The home was very well appointed and the updates appear to be new. The location worked well for us as there were plenty of restaurants, grocery, and shopping in the area. More importantly, the beach access was super convenient and the views were amazing. Book this property with confidence.
Condo is beautiful and clean, great location and very close to the beach. Had a problem with getting the gate and that is a separate management grp from the unit itself. Local unit mangement group was great.
Nice, clean and in a good location. One of the two elevators was not operational but was not too much of an issue. Refrigerator icemaker is not shutting off when bin is full and hinders access to freezer from ice overflow if not used for period of time.

Nice renovated condo
Very nice condo. Nice porch and view. Small bathrooms. Door lock kind of strange. Not obvious you have to register with property also to get gate code before you get there (Additional $65). I have never had such a requirement at any other condo/property. Also invasive security/background check requirement.
The place is beautiful inside and at one of my favorite locations. However, between you and the owner is a property management company named Current Tides. I won’t rent anything they manage again. They were not accommodating to medical emergency issues my wife was having. Also, nickel and dime you for everything.
Our family of 4 adults and our 5 yr. old grandson loved the access to the beach and pool. We stayed on the ground floor which wasn’t bad. It was difficult to get in and out of the sliding glass door. It definitely needs some work on it!! The largest bedroom had only a large tub without a shower, very inconvenient . The beds were very uncomfortable, tooo soft. The queen size bed was more like a regular. It was very clean but there needs to be more washcloths. There was some construction going on above us during the day but we weren’t in our room then.Overall it was ok! The staff was nice! Thanks!
This is an older property but kept up really well. The property was very clean and easily accessible. They were replacing an elevator when we were there but the one working, worked just fine, no issues. I think they are replacing both of them. Bumped into several people that stay at the property each year and they love it. Very short walk to the beach and pool. The beach was not crowded the second/third week of June when we visited. The attendance that get your chairs, etc. where great to work with. We liked being on the 6th floor. Ate lunch/dinner on the patio and watched the waves. Perfect. The South property is next to an undeveloped area, so it is very quiet and you don't have anyone to the West of you. If you are looking for a quiet spot but close to shopping, etc., this is the spot. The room isn't fancy but was nice and clean. Could have used more utensils but that was OK. Shopping in the area was a lot of fun and there are tons of places to eat. We had a great experience and return to this location.
The condo was beautiful as described and had everything we needed except a Keurig. There was a large coffee pot, but no one else in my group drinks coffee. I only brought KCups.
The gulf view from the living room/balcony was amazing! The blinds in the master bedroom, however, could not be raised as the unit was not operational. We called the condo manager who came onsite but was unable to fix the unit before we left. So, we were unable to raise the blinds in the master bedroom or access the balcony through the master bedroom door.
Location was a very short walk to the beach. The beach was very nice and very secluded. Be sure to order your beach setup before you arrive! We had emailed our host in advance who informed us to order when we arrived that morning. We were lucky as there was only one front row spot available, and it was a long hike in the sand. Shelly’s Service was great though, and she fixed us up for the rest of our time with a setup much closer to our property.
Overall, we enjoyed the condo and location very much.
