Amazing!

My first time to Gulf Shores and would, without question, come and stay here again! The unit was beautifully decorated, was fully stocked with anything you would need for your stay (kitchen appliances, cookware & utencils, hair dryer, bath towels, extra blankets, pillows, etc.!), the seating on the balcony and the views made for perfect evening cocktails, a beautifully maintained complex that I saw many owners, who clearly take pride in owning at this location, taking care of. I cannot say enough about my stay - it was perfect in every way!

Plenty of room for everyone!!

The property was clean. The view was amazing!! We loved the oversized pantry to keep all of our snacks. The beds are comfy and having 2 full/queen beds in the spare room was nice for the kids. The water pressure in the bathrooms is also impressive. Having 2 complimentary chairs and umbrella was such a blessing in this August heat! Parking was easy and the pool was always clean.The only thing I suggest is turning the ice maker off at night while you sleep.

Great place!..just a few things of note

Loved the condo, beauty and so clean, will request exact unit in the future. Couple of heads-up items: the local management tel # is non-working but the Vacasa 800 was staffed with helpful agent. The king bed box springs needs replacing, it squeaks (LOUDLY) on any movement, even if just rolling over. Lastly to be clear, parking passes will be delivered and placed on counter for this unit (loved it) but the directions in the Welcome Packet for attaining parking pass is confusing…we had to call 800 for clarification.

Cleanliness Issues

Location was great! The inside is updated however it was not clean. I want to preface the following statements; we stay all over the country and do not expect perfection. This was the most unclean place we have ever stayed. The floors were disgusting and appeared to not have been mopped in some time. The condo had an unclean odor to it, to the extent we went and bought candles to offset the smell. "Clean" dishes in the cabinets were not clean at all, we had to wash everything by hand before use. I sent pictures to the property management firm and never received a response. I would not recommend this condo.

Nice Place

We just stayed overnight, but the condo is very cozy and was the cleanest condo I’ve stayed in. However the owners could spend a few more dollars on a few things to make the stay a little more appealing. The bi-fold doors in the kitchen closet is held together by nails at the bottom which is a bit of an eyesore. Used bi-fold doors can be purchased on fb marketplace place for as little as $20 or new for around $90 and it’s a simple DIY. There is a short in the ceiling fan in the master bedroom. There isn’t enough voltage to light the higher end light bulbs that were installed. I changed them out with bulbs that were in the pantry and there was just enough voltage to barely illuminate them. I’ve installed many ceiling fans and this one has a short in it. I wasn’t able to get the TV work in the master bedroom. I followed the directions on the print out. I had no problems with the TV in the living room. But overall it’s a great place that I would recommend and stay again. Great location.

Everything was really nice. The unit was very clean, plenty of towels and starter supplies. There was only 3 of us so, lots of room to spread out. The pool was very clean. It is a very family oriented which is wonderful. The kitchen was stocked well. We truly enjoyed our stay and will consider coming back again.
