Stayed here 4/4/26 -4/10/26. We will make this our go to place every time we make it back to the Gulf Shores. Property was beautiful and the view from the 8th floor was gorgeous (We stayed in room 801). We saw dolphins swimming everyday from the balcony. Parking was super convenient as well as access to the beach. Everything was steps away from our door step. Host was prompt on answering any questions we had. Property was well maintained. Many options for dining and recreation things in the direct area. Thank you for a great vacation and memories to last a life time.

Great Location

It's far enough away from the busy public beach area to be a laid back location. But yet it's close enough to take a short drive or a nice walk to great places to eat. The larger corner balcony is very nice. Jason & Sonya gave us restaurant suggestions (eating is a big part of vacation!) and were quick to respond when I needed to contact them. I'd highly recommend the Island Royale!

Lovely Condo!

We had a great time on our annual Gulf Shores weekend. The condo was exactly as described and had everything we needed. Check in and check out instructions were clear and provided well in advance of the stay. Host is friendly and communicative. p.s. the primary bedroom in this unit probably has the most comfortable mattress of any vacation rental I’ve ever stayed in!

It was perfect. We took my parents to celebrate my fathers 86th birthday. The unit was clean, roomy, and had all the amenities. The hosts could not have been more lovely. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony and watching the dolphins perform for us! The location was perfect. Shell collecting was optimal and we will definitely go back to this unit again and again!!!

Amazing!!

The condo was amazing. Perfect location right on the ocean. Also the pool was warm and relaxing. We were blessed with amazing weather so having the deck doors open to the living room plus master bedroom was perfect. All the rooms fit our needs perfectly. The beds felt like home, they were so comfortable. When we did close the doors it was so quiet. U could not hear any outside noise. We felt safe on the beach. Lots to do around the area. Will definitely be back.

Perfect family vacation location for 6 adults and 2 small children

Beautiful condo right on the beach. We took our family of 8 (two grown kids w/spouses and one child each) and this place worked out perfectly. The bedrooms were big enough to accommodate a playpen for the little ones. Easy walk down to the beach and the sand is beautiful. When we left for meals or other errands, there was always plenty of parking and traffic was a breeze. We enjoyed our time at the pool as well. It gets both sun and shade at different times of the day and has a kiddie area as well. We loved the view from the balcony and were able to see dolphins in the morning. Jason, the host, was great about communicating with us regarding check-in and check-out and his wife provided great suggestions for restaurants and activities. We had a great time and will most likely visit again.

Amazing!!

My family and I booked a last minute fall break trip to Gulf Shores. Our condo was amazing! The location to everything was perfect. All shops, restaurants and attractions were close by. The pool and beach access were wonderful. My kids loved going from the beach to the heated pool. The view from the balcony was amazing and we saw dolphins almost every morning swimming super close to the shoreline. The condo was clean and beautifully decorated. The beds were super comfortable. Having our own washer and dryer in the unit was the best and super convenient. Communication between owner was excellent. Favorite restaurants were the Hangout and LuLu’s. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend staying at this location during your next visit to Gulf Shores. We can’t wait to visit again soon!
