Family-friendly Gulf-front condo with private balcony, hot tub, pool, & gym

Island Royale P 406

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Less than a mile west of the main Gulf Shores Public Beach entrance and rising high above the Gulf of Mexico is Island Royale.

Featuring a swim-through indoor/outdoor pool, indoor and outdoor hot tubs, steam room and expansive beachfront, Island Royale is a place that encourages you to stay outdoors and take full advantage of the beautiful coastal sunshine.

Once in your condo, be sure to spend time lounging on your private balcony watching the sun rise and set peacefully over the Gulf. Rest and relax in comfort and style in your living area as you reconnect with family and friends. Your kitchen is fully equipped to prepare every meal.

Thanks to the condo's proximity to numerous restaurants (seafood, burgers, steaks, spicy Cajun cuisine and more!), save time in the kitchen and go out to eat!

After dinner, head up Hwy. 59 to Pirate's Island or The Track for an evening of miniature golf, thrilling amusement park rides and arcade fun. Or, check out some of the beach boutiques just north of the beach. Shop for that swimsuit you've been wanting at one of the giant beach stores nearby. Live entertainment can be found any time of year at places like the iconic Hangout Restaurant of Hangout Music Festival fame. Head out to the courtyard for a bubble party or to play silly games.

Your condo a few minutes' drive from Gulf State Park, where you'll find a variety of fun activities such as a nature center, a beach pavilion, a giant fishing pier that juts 1,500+ feet out into the Gulf, backcountry trails and so much more.

When you want a relaxing beach vacation that puts you near the fun of Gulf Shores' beach entertainment district, choose Island Royale. You'll be glad you did.

Ladies Week

The location was fabulous. The view from the patio was outstanding. Unit does need to be updated. The beds were wonderful - so comfortable. Unit was advertised to have 'hairdryers' so none were taken and there were no hairdryers. A broom would have been nice to use. There was a leak under the kitchen sink on the garbage disposal side. Apparently this was already known as a pan was there to catch the water. I did call the number listed and left a voicemail. I would stay here again if I was in the area. Thank you for a place to stay for a fun week.

Beautiful Views! Rusty Tubs Awful

The views were outstanding! We liked the new kitchen and flooring - beautiful! The bathrooms were awful: rust on the tubs where white enamel should be and the shower curtain rod full of rust in two bathrooms. One bathroom sink was cracked in 3 places. Tubs, shower curtain rods and bathroom sinks need to be replaced. We felt duped by the photos. Very DISAPPOINTED and will not stay at a Vasaca Rental again.

Nice but dated

Several updates should be done including bathtubs that are chipped, walls scraped and dirty aid return. Loved the convenience of beach front and proximity to restaurants as bd shops.

Communication is a key

Condo was ok not as updated as some of the others. No parking pass in unit. Reached out to management no response. Lots of construction no hot tub no pool (not a huge deal it made a difference but they could of told us). One elevator working then the topper had to stay in our unit for 2 hours while the cable guys installed new system the building was getting. Which again wouldn’t of been a huge deal but we were only there for 2 days and paid a pretty penny. Then just to top it off No check out email or instructions. Had to call just so they knew we left and I wasn’t charged anything further. Just not impressed overall. Not one of my finest moments at a VRBO. I reached out to management as well to let them know my concerns and nothing. Not even I’m sorry for your inconvenience.

I would be lying if I said this was perfect, but I do need to say that any and all issues that we had were promptly resolved. We enjoyed this location very much and we're overwhelmed by the professionalism and immediate responses when we did have issues. We stayed for six nights and it was absolutely amazing. Highly recommend to anybody and everyone. We chose to get married on the beach and we could not have picked a better place to stay at for this occasion

Awesome stay!

The condo location was conveniently located. They have beach service (for a fee) right out in front of the condo that we used and was great! No need to lug equipment up and down. We’re definitely staying here again next time for sure.

Relaxing and comfortable

We really enjoyed staying here. It is on the end, and we had a great view from the balcony. Communication with the property manager was great. The location is good and close to everything from places to eat to shopping. We were unable to enjoy the pool because we had so much to do but it looks so relaxing and clean. We highly reccomend this property.

Great beach view

Great location with covered personal parking space. Beautiful view with easy access to the beach. Condo is overly cluttered. Sleeper sofa can't be used due to large coffee table and planter. Master bedroom needs pull chains added to ceiling fan. It's only on if the light is on.

Weekend trip with family

We had four in our party and stayed for the weekend. The location, view and size of the condo are fantastic. It could just use some major modernization. The front door lock needs to be reinforced (chain lock is broken) and the bunk beds are wobbly (we ended up not using them at all). The check in/out process and communication were great. I would consider staying here again if it was priced lower than more modern units of comparable size and location.

Unit could use some improvements. Great location.

This is the 2nd unit we have stayed at at island royale after the 1st being excellent. This one was just much more outdated and not as kept up. Location was excellent as expected, easy check in process. And was even given the option to check out later in the day. Which was awesome. But as far as this exact unit. The furniture is outdated and cluttered. We were constantly moving chairs to get through out rooms. In the master bedroom there was barely enough room to walk between tv chest and bed. Tv was tiny but atleast it had one. In queen guest room there wasnt one at all. It may say that but ill always assume. So thats on me. Master shower was loud and screechy and dryer would randomly make loud noises. Room wasnt cleaned completely upon arrival but i made it aware and was quickly responded back to with and offer to send someone to clean. We had 2 adults, and 3 kids. 16, 12, and 10.
