You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

King Size Luxury in a Family Beach Resort

A new ceramic floor throughout and a full size cook's kitchen with stainless steel appliances are two things our guests love about the condo. Banana Wind is a spacious retreat with a king size master suite and private bath along with twin beds and a private bath in the guest room. A full sized round dining table creates the perfect gathering place for family dinners or playing board games. Our housekeeping service washes every piece of linen, including the comforters on the bed, so you are assured of a clean and pleasant stay. It's hard to stay closer to the beach with the water and stunning beach pool (1 of 6) only steps away. In case it rains or in cooler seasons, you can access our indoor pool and sauna at no additional charge. We've included new flat screen televisions in each room. Our balcony features two rocking chairs and tables so you can relax and enjoy the beautiful evenings and gulf breeze. We've included everything imaginable to make your stay more fun. If you want crowded beaches, heavy traffic and non-stop noise you're looking at the wrong location. We are a family resort with a secure 24/7 gated entrance and quiet time beginning at 10:00 PM. Just a short 15 minute drive transports you worlds away to a resort experience. Sandwiched between thousands of acres of National Wildlife refuge with hiking trails and empty or low density beaches, you'll feel like you're in old Key West.
We have shuffleboard, tennis, horseshoes, and one of the 70 best resort golf courses in The Unites States right next door. Kiva Dunes is a world class golf club open to the public with a driving range and practice facility. Enjoy lunch at Uncle Leo's, have dinner and drinks at the Sassy Bass or walk next door to Kiva for a bite to eat and a cocktail. We have outdoor grills located throughout the property near each entrance and we offer a laundry on each floor in case you want to wash some clothes before returning home. Our island was discovered by the Spanish in 1500 and much of their fleet was destroyed in a hurricane in 1504 just behind our property. Because we are on a narrow peninsula separating the Gulf of Mexico from Bon Secour Bay, you can enjoy both the beach or bay when you stay with us. We have a boat launch across from our property and you are welcome to park your boat and trailer here at our resort. Just a few miles west you'll find historic Fort Morgan and museum, our ferry to Dauphin Island, a state park and marina. You can buy an ice cream cone, fill up with gas, get a massage or have dinner at sports bar within 1 mile of the resort. ATTENTION SNOWBIRDS: Ask about special unpublished snowbird rates during the first two weeks of March 2021.

The condo is close to to a swimming pool and boardwalk to the beach. I was able to contact the owner about a question I had. She was able to respond and answer in a timely manner. There is a Dollar General store just 4 miles away. That was very helpful. We always enjoy GSP.

Great Family Vacation Spot!
We had a great stay at this condo. We love that the resort is away from the crowds in Gulf Shores. The beach and pools are close and family friendly. The condo was clean and comfortable. There were a few items that needed attention (burnt out light bulbs, bed pillows that needed to be replaced, a clock that needed new batteries, broken kitchen scissors) but none of these minor items had a negative impact on our stay. Our family had a great week!

Winter retreat from the cold
Loved this condo and location on the gulf. Within a short walk of the ocean and that is certainly the reason we come back. The lodgings are very comfortable and when we did have a minor issue the response time and assistance was prompt and helpful. Thanks for the getaway.

Property owner/manager was great and excellent at communicating. Beds were comfortable and nice fluffy bath towels. Place could have definitely been cleaner, there was inches of dust on the fans, pictures on the walls and table decor. Also, no hand soap in any of the bathrooms or kitchen.

Relaxation
We all had a wonderful time and everything is what the owners said it was supposed to be, we would definitely be back in the future the pool and the ocean was breath taking the room was fantastic the only thing that was bad about the room was there were a lot of mosquitoes in the bathtub and parts of the condo also but other than that it was incredible. The part we loved was it wasn't very crowded and everyone was very friendly Sassy Bass there on the property was nice too

Document everything
Ft. Morgan is beautiful and we had a wonderful week. Be sure to take pictures and tell the owner about every little thing that is wrong with the condo to avoid an up charge at the end of your stay. We paid $50 for a loose screw on a cabinet door that was loose when we got there. The condo is not as updated as others and so be sure to document every little thing before your stay gets started.

Great family trip
The beach was amazing. The pools were nice but we're very cold. The one pool was heated but had some issues. The indoor pool was not available at this time so I can't review that. Over all we all had a great time and will visit this area again. The hosts were quick to respond to questions. Thanks again for the stay.

Super Clean & Beautiful Decor!!
This condo was perfect for our family!!! Condo was well stocked and super clean when we arrived. Beds were very comfy and WiFi was great! Location was convenient especially being on the first floor. Short walk to the beach! The only issue we had was the washer/dryer on the first and second floors are out of order but I found AAA North side Laundromat on the parkway that was clean and efficient- manager was extremely helpful! They have several sizes of washers/dryers for various loads- bring bills or quarters and get there early! We have been vacationing in gulf shores/fort Morgan for many years and this is the BEST condo we have stayed in- would definitely come back and recommend for anyone!!

Dated Building
My group was not impressed with our stay at Gulf Shores Plantation. The building was incredibly dated and even had that “old, musty” smell. The actual condo had been updated, but the twin beds and the couch were incredibly uncomfortable. We would not return to this building or condo for the same price. As for size, it would probably be okay for a couple (there is one king bed), but it was NOT a good fit for a group of 4. We were packed in like sardines.

Beach Getaway for Family of 5
When we arrived the condo was clean and exactly as described. The manager was great with providing small details prior to our stay and very responsive to our questions. The condo was furnished with the majority of the things needed for a great beach experience and came with appropriate amount of household items to maintain the property during our stay. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to stay away from the main Gulf Shores experience, which provides access to a clean and not packed beach.

Very nice condo
Clean and comfortable for a stay at the beach. Nice property with lots of pools and short walk to beach. Had everything we needed to cook a meal. Beach chairs, umbrella and toys for guests use was appreciated. A couple drawbacks, the bedrooms and master bath were smaller than we expected and you could hear everything from the condo above us. The person vacuuming at 7am right above our heads did not make us happy. Overall, it was a nice place to stay and Robin was a great host.

Very enjoyable stay
The listing for this property is very accurate. Everything was in order, clean & comfortable. Beach access was great, pools were great, location was great. It was just far enough from Gulf Shores to provide us with a more secluded feel while still close enough to enjoy the restaurants & shops. The owner had the unit ready for us before the usual check in time & I appreciated the call to let me know. The only improvement I would suggest would be to replace the king bed with a queen. There is only one bedside end table & very little room to move about in the master.
