Relax and Catch a couple fish! Drop all your worries it's vacation time. 🕮🏖️

Welcome to Driftwood Towers in beautiful Gulf Shores, Alabama, the perfect destination for a family-friendly getaway. This inviting place offers stunning views, a welcoming atmosphere, and the convenience of being within walking distance to downtown Gulf Shores. As you step through the front door, leave your worries behind and immerse yourself in the instant stress relief that comes from gazing upon the serene Gulf of Mexico.

Inside this well-appointed unit, you'll discover a fully stocked kitchen, complete with everything you need for meal preparation, an eat-in bar, a dining area, and an outdoor dining table for those moments when the weather beckons you to dine alfresco.

Great place for your for Gulf Shore vacation

Friendly responsive management team Clean comfortable bright well stocked condo with plenty of room for a family. The balcony view Is amazing. Everything is well maintained on the property too. Close enough to the night life to walk too but appreciated the distance for prime ocean front beach access. Enjoyed our stay and would likely book this into again.

Great location!

We had a great time at the Driftwood. The location to the beach was excellent. Our view was beautiful. The condo could use some updating as was said in the reviews before we booked, but the location and view made the trip. The property management company was very efficient and easy to communicate with.

This was the perfect fit for us. Nothing fancy but just right for what we needed. Check in and out was very easy. The pool and beach are easily accessible and a short walk away. Loved the views! This is a great fit for a family of 4 (but there’s a little extra room for a couple more). We’re already talking about coming back!

Wonderful property!

This was a perfect location for us. Beach was right outside our door, shopping and food within walking distance, and the property had a perfect layout for socializing and sleeping. Double bed had a pull out trundle underneath and bunk bed on top so it was perfect for 5 kids. Beds were all super comfy and plenty of blankets and bedding. We lived it!!

LOVED this place

From the view, to the beach, to the kitchen...everything was perfect. Short trek to the ocean with my toddler and all her STUFF, kitchen had everything we needed and then some, the whole condo was super clean and comfortable. The pool and regular attendees of this location were a real treat. We were thoroughly pleased with this choice not to mention the staff at Poole & Associates were so helpful and sweet. Definitely looking forward to staying at The Driftwood again and for many years to come.

The condo was roomy and very comfortable. Perfect beach view. We book this property again!

We enjoyed our stay. The kitchen was well appointed and the condo was decorated very well. Our only complaint was that the condo was not cleaned properly. We found chips and (Maybe spaghetti sauce) in the sheets. This is in no way the fault of the owner and we were provided new linens. We will try to book this property again. Great views and and a wonderful place to stay!

Sweet Place

We spent our time on the beach and enjoying the local seafood restaurants. The condo was very nice. We needed some service with light bulbs needing replacement and a torn screen. The maintenance was done the same day we called and the maintenance man was engaging, asking us if there was anything else he could do. We enjoyed our view of the beach and the ease of access. Bahama Bob's restaurant is conveniently right next door.

Bring Kuerig coffee pods!

There was a Keurig coffee machine versus a regular coffee maker. It would have been nice to know that upfront so that we could have planned accordingly. We brought coffee, snacks etc with us.
Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2018
Response from VrboOwner on 13 Sept 2023
We are glad to see that you enjoyed your vacation, and are sorry that the issue with bringing the wrong coffee was a small hindrance in your plans. If you had inquired with us we would have gladly found out what type of coffee pot was in the unit before your arrival. We have suggested adding reusable Kuerig pods to the kitchen utensils so that in the event this happens again guests will still be able to use the coffee they brought with them. We hope to see you again soon here on the Alabama Gulf Coast.
