Great time, and a great condo.
Nice and clean, very comfortable space
Convenient to beach, good restaurant on property. Kitchen well equipped for basic cooking needs while on vacation.
Looking forward to return next time.
Our rental was very nice! Perfect for the 4 of us. The beds were very comfortable. The view was amazing. I spent a LOT of time on the balcony. I loved the location and the building. If we go back, I would definitely stay here again!
First time down to Gulf Shores / Fort Morgan and we will be back! Overall, an amazing property and beautiful location. The condo overlooks the pools and boardwalk leading out to the beach/ocean. It is quiet, cozy, and has all the basic necessities to fuel up and rest up from a long day at the beach.
We had a great week here, beautiful weather and water. Loved the balcony! Was happy with the speed of the elevators, and the short walk to the beach. Everyone was friendly. Also enjoyed the beach service. Would stay again.

Always great. Wish I’d had a keurig coffee maker tho, even a small one. A luggage stand would be nice too. But I love Jackie and Mel, they work with crazy me when I have my dates wrong, they put up with my panicked emails be me I can’t remember what I did yesterday!
Beds were comfortable, nice view of the ocean. A larger coffee pot is needed.

Thank you for staying with us and for the suggestion of a larger coffee pot. A 12 cup coffee maker is being added to the condo this week. Please come back and stay with us again in the future.
Room was comfortable. The only issues we had were the floor was still sandy when we got there, which isn’t bad it’s the beach. The living room area was just a little crowded. Overall, very good place to stay for the week

Thanks for staying with us and we are glad you had a great time. We are never more than a phone call away if needed.
The place was the perfect size for our family of 4. Only steps from the beach and cute restaurant on the property. The only thing I would say is the bathrooms need a deep cleaning. There was hair in the tub and a few mildew spots that could be scrubbed. Other than that it was a great place to stay.

Ill just say was not what we were anticipating. We were required to do a lot of housekeeping duties. I felt for price a hotel would have been better service and better value.
Love, love, loved our stay! Great condo, very clean and a friendly host who addressed our questions promptly. We saved money and ate in some, so the well-equipped kitchen was a plus! Our family had fun going to all the pools and I enjoyed relaxing in the indoor and outdoor hot tubs. Sassy Bass, Kiva Dunes, Jessie’s and LuLu’s did not disappoint with wonderful seafood and steaks…. Yummy! It was great having SunCoast Beach Service on the beach at the resort, so we rented chairs and an umbrella which lessened what we had to pack and bring with us. We have been coming to the Plantation for years and we plan to rent this condo again. Thanks for a much-needed vacation!
I went for 2 weeks alone. I 10/10 recommend taking a vacation with yourself. Jackie made this such an easy process. The floors were so clean, you could nearly see your reflection. They tiles were white. Not sure how they got that place that spotless because after a couple of weeks there and with me being as clean as possible, sand was everywhere except my bed. A tempurpedic mattress for real! I slept better than I have in years. The balcony furniture wasn’t able to be used because the black paint rubbed off on you. She had new set asap.
I would highly recommend renting from her in building 5.
Property was clean and awesome proximity to the beach. Resort had great amenities with the pools and a beach side restaurant on the property. We would definitely stay again. It was just my husband, my brother and myself, it was perfect for us. I did reach out to the property manager before our stay via email about a parking question and did not receive a response but I was able to call the resort phone number and figure it out. The only 2 things I’d mention about the property is the thin walls (which is not anything the owner can help) and the couch. You could hear everything in the hallways and the people above you which was not a big deal but just something to be aware of. The couch is pretty worn out and super uncomfortable, we could hardly sit on it but most of our time was spent outside so not a huge deal. Overall, I’d recommend this property and it’s a great location for the price. You can’t beat it so I give it 5 stars!

Thank you for staying with us Megan! We love hearing you had a great stay and enjoyed your time at the beach! On Feb 19 we sent complete arrival instructions to you, including the parking/registration instructions. We did not receive a request from you for additional info is the reason you did not receive a response from us. Please always keep our phone number that is provided at the time of booking and reach to us if needed and there is not a prompt response through email or the app you booked on. Please come back soon and stay with us and enjoy our many amenities and sugar white beach!

Reviewer Comments:
This place was the perfect spot for our family of 6. The rooms were spacious and the mattresses were quite comfy. Having two full bathrooms was especially handy when you have 6 people needing to get cleaned up after a full day at the beach. We spent a lot of time out on the balcony, enjoying the views of the beach. We had everything we could need here. We will definitely be staying here again in the future. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your beautiful place.

In 2003 I became a property owner in Gulf Shores, AL. After all these years, it is still a blessing to call this beautiful place "my home away from home".
Why they chose this property
The resort is located directly on the beach and offers more amenities than most resorts! These amenities are for your enjoyment without an extra charge. There is something about time at the beach which leaves us feeling fresh and renewed. Book online or call me at (423) 280-6528 to book your beach vacation.
