Beach view was fantastic. 8th floor was really nice. Host was responding and was helpful. A few things to keep in mind. The space is quite smaller than anticipated but it’s quaint and adorable for a weekend get away. The pool was a nice when it was very hot but the hot tub was not working and the “heated” pool in the other size was lukewarm. The whole beach is right there so the pool didn’t really matter too much. Our biggest complaint was that the elevators weren’t working for most of the 1st day. So I had to carry my luggage up 8 flights of stairs. Thankfully the host called the HOA immediately after I messaged them and got it handled within a few hours. But then it broke again the next day for an hour. Other than those small things, a wonderful stay and the hosts were very nice and the place was very clean.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed the fantastic beach view, the 8th-floor location, the cleanliness of the condo, and that our team was responsive and helpful during your stay. We do apologize for the inconvenience with the elevators, especially having to carry luggage up several flights of stairs. While the elevators and shared amenities are managed by the building/HOA, we completely understand how frustrating that was and appreciate your patience while we worked to get it reported and addressed as quickly as possible. We’re also sorry the hot tub and heated pool did not meet expectations during your visit. We’re happy to hear that, despite those concerns, you still had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the beach and location. Thank you again for staying with us, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for an even smoother visit in the future.

Great Stay

I have no complaints. The unit was very clean and comfortable. Beds and pillows were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our meals. The balcony was my favorite. Great size and the furniture on the balcony was very comfortable. The table on the balcony was great for meals and game nights! Communication with rental agency was great. They stayed in touch with me through the end. I highly recommend this unit.

We had a great trip

Was our 1st time in gulf shores. Condo was well represented in its photos. Nice furnishings, but makes it a little tight to move around. Balcony furniture was very comfortable, and we took full advantage. Nice appliances. Ice maker spit out a lot of ice. Elevator was fast. It was spring break for a number of areas, and that definitely impacted our perception of the area…you can’t pick your Neighbors. We enjoyed being close to city center but far enough away from most of the spring breakers.

A nice place to get away, there were a couple different days where the elevator was down for extended periods of time but it got fixed same day. We found a sock in the dryer still from previous guests.Outside of that the place was nice and had plenty of towels for the week !

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear you found the condo to be a nice place to get away and that it was well-stocked with plenty of towels for your stay. We do apologize for the inconvenience caused by the elevator being down during portions of your visit. While this is handled by the building/HOA and was repaired the same day, we understand how frustrating that can be during a vacation. We’re also sorry about the sock left in the dryer and will address this with our housekeeping team to ensure better attention to detail moving forward. We appreciate you staying with us and hope to have the opportunity to provide an even better experience in the future.
