The unit itself was five-star -- clean, comfortable, well-furnished. The facilities of the property were great, too, with the three pools being the highlight. Facilities on the beach, with high-quality chair and umbrella rentals available immediately in front of the property. Security at the pool was also visible and helpful. Highly recommended!

Gorgeous Condo

My family and I truly enjoyed the beautiful condo. It was very clean and up to date. The condo looked as if recently renovated. We loved the amenities, the big pool, exercise room and sauna. The beach was very easy to access. The staff was very friendly. It was very peaceful, we enjoyed sitting on the balcony in the evenings. We already miss it!

Delivered as Expected

This place delivered a nice combination of amenities and location. The owner was very responsive and provided plenty of information in advance to help with our stay. The setup with the multiple pools and direct beach access was also very convenient. Our only minor inconveniences were typical of high-rise buildings with lengthy waits for elevators during peak times and one unexpected short water outage.

Unforgettable days at the beach of Alabama...

Dear Kevin, we loved your condo...it was like a home for us. Much better than expected. I am really picky with everything ( mainly concerning the cleanliness) at this Condo everything was perfekt , We also liked the balcony with the beautiful chairs. We stayed four Weeks and enjoyed every single day. Kevin has been so helpful with everything, and we felt very secured throughout the whole building. The large pool and spa right on the beach is so awesome and unique in Gulfshores. My Husband and I would definitely stay again in this wonderful condo ,should we come back some day. Thank you Kevin for host us .

Clean, Well Stocked, Excellent Choice!

This condo was perfect for our family vacation! My husband and I have exceptionally high standards when it comes to cleanliness. This condo was immaculate: sheets, floors, surfaces, everything. The kitchen had every possible utensil, container, and pan you could need to cook. Pool access, distance to the beach, and location makes this one of the best places to stay. We had 2 very small children with us. All 4 of us could walk back and forth to the beach and pools easily. The owner was great to communicate with and extremely responsive. This was by far one of the best experiences we have had on vacation. It is not a matter of if we will go back, it's a matter of when!

"Amazing Condo with Breathtaking Views!"

This is the third time we have rented this condo for The Hangout Festival. This condo has everything that you will need for your trip to the beach! The furnishings have all been updated with all large flatscreen TV's in all rooms. The furniture is very comfortable, the beds are amazing and the kitchen is fully stocked. Even the sheets and towels are high quality. The condo has to be one of the cleanest we have stayed in. This complex has a vast amount of amenities. In addition to the beach, there are three pools. The views from the balcony and inside the condo are amazing. One of the best features is that it is very close to a variety of activities. As to the owner, Kevin is great! He is very helpful with information about the area and responds quickly. I would highly recommend this condo to anyone who is looking for a trip to the beach!

A Wonderful Experience

The property was fantastic. Beautifully decorated, and we could not ask for a better experience. The balcony was by far my wife and I's favorite part. Watching the waves, the beach, and the cool Gulf storms roll in was enjoyable. Access to two different pools and the beach was easy, and fantastic. The shoe rack on the boardwalk was a first for me, and a little detail that was great. My wife and I would definitely stay here again. Thank you for a great time!
