Experience the best place on the Alabama coast at Wind Drift 213 N, a beautifully furnished 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condominium that sleeps 8 guests. Located in Orange Beach's most unique waterfront location—nestled between the Gulf of Mexico and Old River, bordered by a state park to the west—this retreat offers stunning Old River and Ono Island views, Gulf beach access just 2 minutes across the street, boat slips, two outdoor pools, and everything you need for an unforgettable Alabama Gulf Coast vacation. Bay, boats, beach, and true bliss await at this exceptional Orange Beach waterfront condo.

Wind Drift occupies a coveted dual-waterfront position that sets it apart from typical Orange Beach properties. You're not choosing between beach life and boating access—you're getting both. This beautiful condo treats you to some of the best views in Alabama of Old River and Ono Island. Enjoy coffee at sunrise or cocktails at sunset from your private balcony overlooking the water. First-come boat slips with direct river access make this ideal for boaters. A fishing pier where the catches are as good as the views. Trailer and watercraft storage for serious boaters. Two outdoor pools for when you want to swim without the salt. Tennis and pickleball courts for active guests. A sandy nook right by the boat dock perfect for babies and beach toys. This isn't just another Orange Beach condo; this is prime waterfront real estate with maintained facilities and access to both Gulf and river.

Boating getaway

Great condo and good location. We were able to launch and dock our boat there for the duration of our stay. Only issue we had was with gate codes. We will definitely be staying again.

Beautiful condo and grounds. Everything inside and outside was clean and well maintained. Great boat slips and trailer storage area. Nice and quiet as well. Location is great and close to shopping and eating, and of course the famous FloraBama. Highly recommend.

Labor Day 24

The property is very nice. I’m not complaining about it at all, but I like to give honest constructive criticism. The tubs weren’t cleaned well and the patio furniture was very uncomfortable. Everything else was great and overall it was an excellent stay.

Orange Beach vacation

The condo is very nice and comfortable!! Location was fun watching all of the boats come and go. Pool and beach was very easy to access across the street . The furniture especially the 2 chairs in the living room need replaced. Very uncomfortable because the cushion foam is wore out and you are sitting on the springs. Towel in the chair didn’t help. The other interesting part was when we arrived late our code to enter wouldn’t work because it was entered as an outside vendor than a renter. After several calls it was fixed . Our 1st visit to the area and we enjoyed it!!
