About this property

Life is Better at the Beach!

Welcome to our family-friendly, two-bedroom, two-bath condo at Three C's, a 12-unit complex built in 2004. You will enjoy a pool, outside shower, and a free reserved parking space. The sugar-white Gulf Shores beaches are just across the street, with beach access via a wooden walkway with sitting area and additional public parking one block away on West 13th Street. In this unit, you will enjoy all of the comforts of home: cozy, casual furniture; a touch of beach decor; tile floors in the common area and bathrooms; lifeproof wood flooring both bedrooms; a DVD Library with 3 TV's and DVD players; free Wireless internet; an open layout with living room, dining room, and fully stocked kitchen (includes Dishwasher, Microwave, Coffee-maker, Bagel Toaster, Juicer, Blender, and Ice Cream Freezer) with bar and bar stools; two full-size bathrooms with spacious vanities in both baths. We are considerate of all our guests, including those with allergies--this is a pet-free and smoke-free unit. From the balcony, you can watch the sun set or view the beach and Gulf of Mexico to the south and the Little Lagoon Bay to the north. Enjoy a cook-out at the picnic table/grill area located at the south end of the complex. We are minutes away from many boutiques and souvenir shops; Scoops Ice Cream Shop; The Wharf (shopping, dining, live concerts); Lulu's (Jimmy Buffet's sister's restaurant featured in Southern Living); Sea and Suds, a local favorite with Para-Sailing on the beach below; The Hangout-newly renovated on the beach; Bahama Bob's-another local favorite just a short distance away; a new Tacky Jacks; The Original Oyster House; King Neptune's (featured in Coastal Living); Papa Rocco's (People's Choice Best Pizza in 2010 and Best Raw Oysters for eight years in a row); dolphin cruises; WaterVille USA; the Tanger Outlet Mall and Wolf Bay Lodge about 8 miles away in Foley, and (a few more minutes away) the Pensacola Naval Air Station and Museum--home of the Blue Angels. Pier 33 is close-by for last-minute purchases when you don't want to drive far; Walmart is nearby and lots of souvenier shops, too. There is something for everybody to do; or best of all, just kick back and enjoy the peaceful, relaxed atmosphere. Life really is 'better at the beach'!

Wonderful stay!
We had a great time here in Gulf Shores! The condo was just as listed. They provide absolutely everything you need for your entire stay. All things beachy are there for you to enjoy. We have a toddler, the pack-n-play and booster seat were so great to have so we didn’t have to pack those things. The beach is a very short walk from the condo which we LOVED. If you want to have a lovely time with great hosts, stay here. :)

Great Birthday Trip
The condo was a block from the beach, which was the major factor in the booking. There were ample beach equipment at the condo to use, which was a great because we forgot most of our beach gear. The heated pool was a relaxing way to end the day. The area felt safe and family-oriented. The family was celebrating my granddaughter's 4th birthday, so the being able to be close to the beach and close to OWA and other attractions was a must, and this condo delivered. The only con is the parking is tight and extremely limited, and people park in the wrong spaces at times, but it wasn't a deal breaker because the other guests were laidback and went with the flow. Overall, this was a wonderful place to spend the weekend.

If it's available - book it!
The room was exactly as described . Communication from the owners were top notch and much appreciated. Walk to the beach was a mere 5 min (with kids and beach luggage). They have everything you need ! No need to even pack the beach gear! Thank you for having us and we will be back

If I Could Complain....
If you're looking for a place to find something wrong just to complain about, this isn't the place for you! The description was more than accurate, the communication response was less than a minute, the location was on point with the beach access, the pool was nice, and the entire property was clean! I will definitely book again, and stay at other properties that they manage. I mean I found zero problems with this place!

About the host

Hosted by Donna or Scott or Eric

Host profile image
Our family includes the parents, three children and their spouses, and ten grandchildren. We all love the beach!

Why they chose this property

Our families vacationed in this area growing up and our dream was to one day have a vacation home so we could make memories with our children and grandchildren.
This area is quiet and peaceful---away from the congestion, but just a short drive if you want to be in the action! Its the perfect location for a family beach vacation!

What makes this property unique

West Beach in Gulf Shores is consistently featured in COASTAL LIVING magazine's "Best Beach Vacations'.comments include, '"what sets Gulf Shores apart from other Gulf Coast destinations is the quality of the sand: soft underfoot and ultra-bright white. Summer water temperatures hover at bathtub levels, and gentle waves make the beach safe for even the youngest waders'".
