Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re glad to hear the room met your expectations and matched what you saw online. It’s wonderful that you enjoyed the clean space, beachfront location, and the convenience of being close to shopping and restaurants.
We truly appreciate you staying with us and hope to welcome you back again soon!
Property was right on the beach, host communicated excellent, and the condo was clean. It would have been nice if there was more than one roll of toilet paper in each bathroom for a 10-day stay, as well as some paper towels. The unit was slightly dated, but totally fine for our stay. The hallway carpets are kind of gross, but not sure what to expect with all the humidity, saltwater, and sand. The trundle bunk was great, and having a pull out sofa in the living room was more than enough sleeping areas.

Great condo. Location is amazing. Great facility and pool close to everything on Gulf Shores. Some things could be updated, broken microwave trim, add a deadbolt, etc but i would certainly recommend would stay in the same unit again.

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.

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.

Hello Angela,
Thank you for your 5 star review. We are so glad you had a wonderful time. We are always happy to help you with the perfect getaway!
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!

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.

Kim we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay here! We hope you come back time and time again to make more memories on the beautiful Gulf Coast! See you soon!
The condo is great , but the building is majorly outdated and in much need of a cleanup and face lift. The pool also, needs to be brought up to date.
Otherwise good place to stay.

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!

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.
