Disappointing

I think the header says it all. My wife and I have stayed in numerous VRBOs in Gulf Shores and around the country and have been very satisfied with the accommodations. However, this time was an exception. It began at the front door, which was rusty and dirty and stood out from the other doors on the floor of the condo for that reason. Upon entering the condo, we found floors that had built up dirt in the grout along the baseboards, dust on the ceiling above the fan in the living room, cracked and chipped floor tiles, furniture inside and out that was worn and tattered, dresser drawers that were broken, missing outlet covers, a chipped mirror on the bathroom door, and chipped sinks in both bathrooms. I’m aware of Beach Ball Property’s claim that if the condo is dirty, they need to be notified to rectify, however this type of dirty comes from months of neglect. This condo needed more than a cosmetic cleaning. I can’t and won’t begin to understand why a condo like this would be marketed as a “family” destination, it isn’t. I do not plan on renting from Beach Ball Properties again.

The patio furniture needs to be updated, not comfortable sitting to watch the beautiful beach view, the master bed is very firm with a creaking foundation. Everything else was outstanding! We enjoyed our stay very much.

Perfect for families!

The only issues we had was the bed was super soft memory foam that wasnt very comfortable to us. Also, the stove burners are all crooked so cooking is difficult, but they do have a hot plate so we just used that and it worked great. Other than that, it was perfect! Our code worked the first try, and management was very accommodating when we wanted to add another night last minute. We stayed with our 3 daughters 5 and under, so being able to walk right out to the beach made it a lot easier. Its in walking distance of a lot of restaurants and shops. The view from the balcony is beautiful, although its right above the pool, and one floor up you would be able to see more of the beach. The bunk beds are a tad shorter than a twin so older kids might have a harder time fitting. Bring/buy extra paper towels, toilet paper, and laundry/dishwasher detergent if staying for longer than just a few nights! Just a heads up: you cant have a canopy by the water, only umbrellas under 7ft. Canopys have to be by the dunes away from the water.

Good and would stay again

It’s a nice area and the beach is great. The building itself is ok too. The unit was 103 and it has a great view of the gulf and beach. Fridge, stove, counters and cupboards were all clean and nice. Bedding was clean and comfortable. Good supply of dishes and kitchenware. But, it does need a really good cleaning of the all floors and the couch/chair is pretty tired. Seriously, the carpet and bare floors will leave your feet dirty. The patio furniture is small and also tired looking. Could use some new kitchen tiles. We would come back to this unit. Again, the view was awesome for a first floor unit. Just needs a real, real good cleaning and a bit of furniture updating.

Tropic Isles 103

The location of Tropic Isles 103 is perfect. The view of the Gulf is amazing from the balcony. We love first floor condos. The condo itself had plenty of room for everything we needed, from a two sink bathroom, to a good sized living room, a comfy huge king bed, 1.5 baths and a furnished kitchen. We have stayed here two years in a row. The main drawback is the condo itself needs updating - everything from the floors, to the cabinets needing painting, the rug in living room seems old and dirty, the same for the lounge chair in living room. The front door is in desperate need of a paint job or just a new door. The door jam looks like it's been hacked on year after year for various key pads. It's really unfortunate, because we love everything else about the place. If just a little care would be given to the general updating.

First Spring Break Trip

Location was awesome. Walking distance to shops and restaurants and entertainment. Would have given it 5 stars if not for 2 things: 1) the Queen mattress was horrible I slept sideways on it to be able to sleep- way too worn in. Not even close to being comfortable and the mattress protecter was gross with a ?pee stain and ? Blood drops ( noticed when I stripped the bed after). 2. Code for door didn’t work . Wasted over 30 minutes on check in and I had to use the bathroom. Both of these have been mentioned in previous comments. Hopefully owners make some changes. Side notes: If you want to sit peacefully on your deck - pick a higher floor. We were basically poolside. Twin beds are smaller than twins and difficult for teens to get in and out of. My teen daughter slept on the pull out- she said you could feel the mattress wires.

Drain smell

Started out not so good the door code they gave us didn't work, had to call to get different code. Once in and settled in everything went great. Wife started to smell an odera d found it was coming from the drain. She rinsed well and put a fragrant down the garbage disposal. I think people use the disposal but don't run cold water through after done. My suggestion to the property owner would be, when cleaning up put some orange slices down the disposal and run them through. But disposals must become e rinsed thorally with cold water all the time or food will start to rot if sits for a few w days unused. Other than this we lived the condo and the view.

Place was clean, neat and safe. Furniture was dated and warn but okay as we put the extra sheets over the furniture to use it. The rug could have been vacuumed, but was okay. The kitchen cabinets and some trim could have used a fresher coat of paint. Convenient to bars, restaurants and souviner shops. Overall a great place to stay and would visit again.

Unannounced entry and wrong entry code

Entry code that was provided didn’t work, had to call and get a code that would work. No issue after that. A worker from the management company entered while we were there, no notice, no knock on the door or call ahead of time. He claimed he was told nobody was renting and the place would be empty.

?

While I didn't mind so much that the condo was dated, the floors weren't clean (my feet were black after walking around for a few hours after a shower) . The thermostat was not operating. We couldn't get it to work at all. We relied on the ceiling fans and the sliding doors to keep us comfortable. The stove eyes were slanted, which made cooking tricky. I felt that I didn't really get what I was paying for.
