Our stay Aug. 17-23
It is a very nice place, clean, easy access to restaurants and shopping. The elevator did go down a couple of times not too big of a deal except for the morning we were leaving trying to get our luggage down from the 8th floor. This was not the fault of the property owners.

Family Beach Break
Dont let the exterior of the building concern you. The unit was well appointed and in wonderful condition. Plenty of space for all. Nice treat to have a washer and dryer in unit. Beach and pool access was very good. There was a bin with many water and sand toys available to use. It would be nice to have hot pads in the kitchen

Great Room! Elevator a little Slow, Parking Crowded.
Room was pretty nice. Excellent, close distance from the beach and pool. Lots of space. Furniture and decorations were pretty nice. Balcony with comfortable, cushioned wicker furniture. Washer dryer, dishwasher all worked well. Resort is not overly large which makes for a nice uncrowded Beach. There is an ice maker in this room, which was really convenient. This place is a walking distance to The Hangout. The only drawbacks were that the elevator was a little slow, and parking was kind of tough for a full size truck. I never did figure out how to operate the television in either room, so instructions on that would have been helpful. The ceiling fan in the middle bedroom is out of balance, and near a top bunk. There is no hot tub at this resort. These are certainly not deal breakers, but could have been a little better. Overall, the room itself is pretty nice, location is great, and access to the uncrowded beach is easy, and I really like that the pool has a shaded area for those who have been sunburned. This is a good place to stay.

Fantastic property!
The condo was beautiful and the management team was great. My extra parking pass wasn’t in my room (which the emails said it could possibly not be in there bc I ordered it late) the team answered right away, text me the address and my pass was waiting for me. It is an easy walk to the beach, clean property, I like how there is not a lot of rooms so our part of the beach was not overcrowded. The ONLY negative is the parking. I had to climb out the trunk one night and climb out the back door the other night. Those spots are WAY TO small. And they are almost always full. There was a night we had to circle multiple times, and had to pull in our mirrors to get out of the car. But the condo and property were hands down the best.

Great stay!
Wonderful property, great location! Very clean, property manager was very nice and quick to reply. Would absolutely stay again! The only complaints that I had about the property was the shower in the front bathroom did not work and the pool design made it difficult to keep an eye on children swimming. There was not a location for a parent to sit and see the entire pool.

Loved the Condo only downside was the parking, and the number of tags you could have for parking. Other than that it was an amazing place to stay, walking distance to loads of things and beautiful beach front views.

Great Condo
We traveled to Gulf Shores for a volleyball tournament that was held in Foley. We decided to stay in Gulf Shores to enjoy the beach. The condo was clean and had everything we needed except salt and pepper (but Dollar General was less than 5 mins away so no big deal). We had a great time and very easy to check in and out! We will be back!

Beautiful condo close to Hangout Festival
This condo is beautifully decorated on the 8th floor, with amazing views. It was close to everything. Some small issues with the T.V. connections, but maintenance very quickly resolved the issue. Very short walk to the beach. We would stay here again.
