We had a great view of the ocean and the condo was as described, we had everything we needed. Balcony had good seating, choices for everyone. There were a few things that could have been repaired or replaced inside but nothing that was a big deal. We had a wonderful relaxing time at Gulf Shores and surrounding area. Safe at home with lots of new memories!

Wonderful space! Comfy primary bed! Thank you for all the extra pillows and blankets!The balcony was incredible! Exactly what I wanted, comfortable place, walk downstairs to pool and then walk a few more steps to the beach! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!Only suggestion would be to keep beach towels for your guests. That would be so nice!

When we arrived it seemed the code wouldn't work to get into the unit. We contacted the host who had maintenance come. It was a simple battery replacement in the keyless entry pad, but was not a great way to start. Thankfully, they were quick to get us a physical key and have maintenance come and kept in communication the whole time. While maintenance was there we asked him to change the light bulbs in the "bonus room" as the lights wouldn't turn on. Another quick, easy fix that was taken care of right away The unit is beautiful, tastefully decorated, Location is great lots to do in the area. The only true complaint we had was for the bonus room- there is very little air movement at night and it is very small. A ceiling fan wouldn't work due to size and the bunk bed, my kids were hot at night. It is more comfortable as there is more circulation, if the door is left open (we have a younger climber so needed to keep it closed. ) Overall, we were happy with the stay and would stay there again.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughtful review. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience with the entry keypad when you arrived. We're glad we were able to get you inside quickly, replace the batteries, and address the lighting issue right away while keeping you informed throughout. It's wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the home's décor, location, and overall stay. We also appreciate your feedback about the bonus room. Guest comfort is very important to us, and we'll certainly take your comments into consideration as we look for ways to improve airflow in that space for future guests. Thank you again for your valuable feedback and for your understanding. We're delighted you enjoyed your stay overall, and we would love to welcome you back on your next visit!
