The views from the balcony over the Gulf are only matched by the comfort and quiet of the condo. Suitable for our family of six, the location was perfectly perched on the beach and walking distance to food, shopping, bars and local groceries and the like.

We have been going to Gulf Shores for several years now. We loved how close we were to places, walked almost everywhere. Kids used the pool sone instead of the beac and loved it. Views were awesome. Would definitely stay there again

Our family of 5 in one PH condo along with extended family of 7 in another PH condo gathered to uphold a promise to our mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, and great grandmother. She passed away last year but asked us to continue to get together locally and travel together - especially at the beach - her favorite place.We enjoyed Island Royale. The room was super clean and had plenty of room for everyone’s comfort. Beds were super comfy. View from the front facing beach were breathtaking but the view from the small balcony on the parking lot side was actually my favorite. Everything is lit up at night. We will def keep Island Royale on the list of our favorites. Thank you for sharing your home with us for our family to Keep a Promise.

This condo had everything we wanted for our trip to Gulf Shores -- an ocean view with a large balcony, lots of room for our family and easy access to the beach. The condo is very well kept and has everything you need for a family getaway.

While the interior is getting out dated, we weren’t there for the indoors. Excellent beach access and easy walking distance to restaurants. Only complaint about the place was the very noisy and uncomfortable queen bed. They should replace that, but everything else was ok.

Had a great time despite the weather. Condo was beautiful with everything you need. Only issue was the ice maker was so loud we turned it off and bought ice.

The view was amazing from the top level of this condo and there was seating for 8 with tables on the deck to watch the ovean and dolphins. There was a well stocked kitchen and enough beds for 8 plus a sofa sleeper. The pool had lots of options...indoor andnoutdoor hot tubs, small indoor pool and larger outdoor pool and separate kiddie pool.

10/10

It was a beautiful stay. The view was great. The balcony’s were great. The condo was clean and easy to use. A bit smaller than we expected but it was homey and it worked out great for my family. The parking in the garage was an unexpected plus! I would recommend to anyone.

Great views, right on the Gulf. Found several dishes that had to be rewashed and scrubbed. Ice maker is very noisy. Toilet in master needs to be replaced. Outdoor furniture needs to be replaced also.

Great location - just steps away from the beach. But the property is in need of upgrading ie. towels were treadbare; one comforter was soiled (the replacement was no better); shower curtain old and needs replacing. Limited pots and pans. No lobby on the property so limited security. Next time will search for different property in the same area.

This place was perfect for our wants and needs ( priorities were: at least 1 walk in shower, comfortable outdoor seating, a large bathroom vanity, convenient location, a balcony facing the ocean, and a pool) We got ALL of that and more ( even cookbooks!). The rooms were very clean. There were luggage carts on the ground floor, excellent parking, 2 elevators, exceptional views, etc. The only things I can think of to make it a more enjoyable stay - would be a blow dryer in each bathroom, an extra kitchen garbage bag, and the ice maker only puts out about 20 cubes a day and the bathroom sinks drain slowly. These are all minor and easily fixable things and I hope to be able to rent this suite the bext time we visit Gulf Shores.
