It was clean and in great condition, almost everything worked very well (one of the TV remotes didn't work, but it was a non-issue since we didn't care to watch TV there), and the view of the beach was amazing! It's in a very pedestrian friendly area, too. The staff were also very polite and professional. We were able to receive and return our key without any issues. I can definitely picture coming back here again next year!"

"All I can say is perfect spot all the way around. Clean, decor was great, and what a view of the sunrise from the master bed and balcony. Couldn’t have asked for a better spot for our first trip to Gulf Shores. Checkin and out was a breeze. The amenities were great, especially having the ice machine on site. The host was very communicative and we were able to stay an additional night with zero headache. I will be sure to book this same condo in the future."
