My husband and I just checked out after bringing our son and his 2 friends. We had a great week at Island Winds East. The location was great. It was within walking distance to everything. The only time I used my car was to go to Walmart. The condo was fully stocked with everything we needed for the week and very clean. I’ve stayed places that give a huge list of check out duties and this one only had a few things they asked of, which is nice since we wanted to get in the road early to head back to St. Louis. The lady in the office was also very friendly. We arrived earlier than check in but she allowed us to get our parking pass and offered the bathrooms and pool while we waited until 4pm to check in. The only minor issue we had was the chair in the living room wasn’t very sturdy but we just didn’t use it. There was plenty of other seating. We would definitely return!

Place was clean. Was exactly as described. Right on the beach; just steps away. Super close to stores & restaurants (walking distance). A 5 min walk to The Hangout. If I HAD to find something to "complain" about it would be the beach umbrella....heavy & difficult to keep it standing... that's about it in the complaint department. Would definitely re-book next trip to Gulf Shores.

What a lovely condo. Loved having such a great view of the ocean and easy access to the beach. Pictures make it look larger than it is. The second bedroom and bath are small and no window with a view. Just the outside hall so couldn’t even open it for fresh air. The beds were very comfortable but hardly any room to move around. Would be fine for kids but as seniors with mobility challenges it was not easy. Also closet was tiny. The Master bedroom and bath was lovely, could even watch the water from the bed. Nice kitchen, well supplied.

Great Condo

We absolutely loved this condo and its location! The view from the master bedroom is stunning, the decor is lovely, and it includes many extras-beach chairs, a cooler, umbrella, extra laundry soap etc. Everything was clean and service was prompt when we were missing clean kitchen towels. The location was great, with a nice paved path to dining and shopping. We would definitely visit again and stay in this same spot!

February Getaway

The condo was immaculate. Everything was updated and it was one of the most well-stocked kitchens we’ve ever stayed in for our trips to the beach. Wonderful view. We parked the car and didn’t need it for 4 days, as everything is within walking distance. This will definitely be our first choice for our next trip to Gul Shores.
