The condo was perfect for our family. We were traveling with adult kids and grandkids. The room with 2 queen beds was perfect for the family with toddlers!! It was very clean and the view of the beach was great. It was nice to not have to ride/wait on the elevator.

Thanks for the kind words. We strive to insure our condo is a warm, inviting place to stay for a wonderful beach vacation!
We had a perfect stay this unit is amazing much room there is everything you need we cooked 3 meals the kitchen has everything the view is so nice. The elevator is right outside your door they have carts to help you move in and out. Ypur parking spot is right bt the door. Im handicap it made it so easy for me great place to rent
This place was everything you could ask for! Very calm , family oriented place! Mr. Mark was a fantastic host!! Beautiful view of the beach. We will definitely be staying here each year! Thank you for having us!!!
This property was great! Right on the beach with access to the property pool as well! Property managers/owners were very responsive and helped me with every request I had! Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a spacious, beach-front experience!
We had to contact owner to get the door to open when we first arrived, he answered the call quickly, was kind and helpful with instructions, we got the door to open after that and had no further issues. We enjoyed our 5 night stay. The deck has an oceanfront view which is absolutely beautiful.
Nice, roomy, condo. Convenient location, and close to the ground floor meant that we could skip the elevator. Parking lot is tight, so don’t bring a huge truck
Second time our family has stayed here and we love it! Great low density building, clean unit, perfect location, and responsive owner. Couldn’t ask for more!
Our stay was great. The condo was so well supplied, particularly the kitchen utensils. Beach toys and chairs were also available. Elevated first floor was great. Easy walk to beach. We would stay here again.
The property was unmatched. No large crowds and beautiful views of the beach and the pool. All just steps away. Our family fit perfectly in the 3 the bedroom with everyone having their own bathroom. Also within walking distance is a bar and grill with a beach store/convenient store.
My husband and I had our son and his wife and daughter, our oldest grandson and his wife and our 20 year old granddaughter stay with us.I love the condo. We stayed there 2 years ago as well. My husband's family gets together after Christmas in Fairhope, and we like to stay at the beach.The only thing that didn't work right was the Keurig coffee maker. The insert for it didn't seem to fit.We got ground coffee and used the regular coffee maker. All was fine.
We have stayed in this unit a couple of times. Great location on the main drag. Right on the beach with a well maintained pool. We’d absolutely stay again.
The condo was very well equipped with kitchen amenities and nice linens. It was very convenient to restaurants and other attractions. The only negative was that the carpet in the master bedroom and bath could use a good cleaning.. Enjoyed our stay.

So glad you enjoyed your stay.
As far as the carpet, we had all the carpet in the condo professionally cleaned, while we were there, four days prior to your arrival. We will reach out to you to better understand the reason for your concern.
We loved the layout of the place and the kitchen was especially impressive, so well appointed, everything we needed. Loved the small size of the building and it was kept so clean. Was one of the nicest condos we've stayed in. Thanks for a good time.

What makes this property unique
Small complex, all beach front, our large first floor unit is raised so you can see the beach over the dunes.
