We enjoyed our stay! Great location, beautiful views. Teens stayed on the balcony when were were at the condo, loved it! Great kitchen, had everything we needed for cooking and then some. Would stay agsin for sure!
We had the nicest time. It was such a beautiful place. The views were perfect, and the decor was fantastic! Very cozy and close to everything, but not too close!
Our stay was superb! The property was immaculately clean, on the beach, and very peaceful. I would recommend this property to everyone. We will definitely be back!!
Good stay, air, elevate, and parking good.Ocean view fair, with side obstructions from other buildings.Nice unit, well stocked and maintained, a few knobs and what nots worn.

Thank you for your review. We're glad to hear you had a good stay and that the air conditioning, elevator access, and parking all met your expectations. We're also happy the unit was well-stocked and maintained for your visit. We appreciate your note about the ocean view and minor wear on some fixtures. We'll be sure to take a closer look and make updates where needed. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you back soon!
Tropical Winds 501 was absolutely amazing! Everything you need is there. The place was spacious and comfortable. Little tight in the kitchen but we managed. Would definitely stay again!
we have no complaints from this condo at all!! perfect location, hardly no traffic in elevators, we never saw anyone in the pool with us. it was quiet and perfect for a relaxing trip.
It’s was a nice place to stay. Perfect spot for the beach! We enjoyed our stay. Only thing maybe update some of the cookware and mattress soon. We will go back..

GREAT PLACE TO STAY!! I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS LOCATION TO EVERYONE!!
The location was very clean and up to date. There are 8 of us in the family and each bedroom having its own bathroom was very nice and made it quick for everyone to get ready to go out at night. There aren't any chair and umbrella rentals on the beach in front of the condo but this wasn't an issue because we walked next door and rented them for the week. I would highly recommend this condo for larger families.
Nice place. Pretty clean and cute. The glass shower door shattered and caused a trip to the ER. Also, the patio door is difficult to open and close. Overall, I would recommend and stay here again.
My only disappointment was the gym. The pictures were nothing like what it was. One rusty loud treadmill and a space air conditioner unit. Very hot and humid.
We were really happy with this property, and it is exactly how it was advertised. Really nice and updated on the inside. Being that it rained for most of our stay, we were inside quite a bit, but it is roomy enough to spread out. Would highly recommend and the communication with the property management team was great. They were super responsive.
A couple of things to note, which didn't matter terribly to us, but the beach around this area is a little tight. As such, they don't allow anything like canopies (nothing bigger than 4x7). Again, just something I wish we would have known ahead of time so that we could have packed accordingly. you can go a few condos down though to set up. Also, no floats allowed in the pool.
We enjoyed our stay and would stay again at this place!

2024 gulf shores trip
The condo was not ready at our check in time. The guy cleaning it was very rude to us. The condo was not very clean when we got in. Trash under the beds floors turned our feet black. Sand in the bed sheets and crumbs under a pillow on the bed. After emailing the owner several time we never did get a working code for the pool/ beach area. We ended up having to get one from another guest. Parking was an issue. The location is good and we had plenty of room for everyone. Having three bathrooms nice. For the price will look for other arrangements on our next visit.
