Great location! Dog friendly! Balcony and unobstructed Gulf views. Amenities as presented and the unit was super clean. Lance was very communicative and responsive. It was only two of us and our puppy, so we used the bunk beds as extra laundry/closet work space, but they would be excellent for families with kids.Very satisifed with our stay - so much so that we booked another week next month!

This condo was well stocked in the kitchen, well maintained and clean. We had three people plus one dog and was great for a long weekend where proximity to the beach was important to us. The half bath was convenient for the third guest to use outside of needing to shower. Only draw back is that the building was loud while we visited. We visited in a holiday weekend so that may have contributed. The building was very active with lots of dogs. We also had neighbors that enjoyed listening to high volume music, which was audible from the living room. One of our nights we called the security about the music and they were prompt in addressing the issue.

Relaxing Getaway

Great location right on the beach with nice view of the ocean. Everything you need is provided.... cooler, umbrella, kitchen utensils etc.... About a mile from main intersection with restaurants and shopping. Convenience market for other daily needs within walking distance. Nice pool for when you don't want to deal with the sand.

Had everything we needed!

Nice place for a couple with a dog! The beach has eroded a lot compared to the photos and the boardwalk is much shorter than the one pictured, so there's not a lot of beach. Some local news articles mentioned there are restoration efforts in the works later this year and it didn't impact our vacation at all. It's just something to note so you aren't surprised when you see it in person, like we were. Otherwise the condo had everything we needed and was nice to stay in!

Getaway

The overall condition of the property was very poor. Our unit, which we thought was going to be so pleasant, was anything but that. The tile floor was not clean, the toilets were not clean, there were not any instructions for the TV's, knowing that there are so many people who come to stay from all different parts of the US, and there are so many different television companies so it was almost impossible to watch any television, and on and on. We are not trying to be unreasonable but this was a very disappointing trip.

About the host

Hosted by Lance & Courtney Steffek

Host profile image
We live in Gulf Shores and love the area. We have 4 children; Emma, Lachlan, Lennox and Piper that love the beach and pools. We are not far away and enjoy staying at Caribbean when other families are not enjoying it. It has been such a joy owning this unit and being able to share it with other families throughout the year. And it has been a fun journey renovating; making it a truly luxurious, high-end destination.

Why they chose this property

We like the low density of only 32 units but all the amenities of a larger complex. Also the 9' ceilings which give it a larger feel than many of the other condos in the area.

What makes this property unique

Low density building with a salt water heated indoor pool, heated outdoor pool, fitness center, grill area and unobstructed Gulf views.
