We've booked at least 6 different rooms at the plantation resort over the last 10 years or so. This is the second time with Flip Flop. Both times were great. No issues with our room, no issues with our payment, no issues with anything. The hosts communicates well. Would highly recommend.

This property was excellent. It was exactly what my family was looking for. The place was clean, and well maintained. There was absolutely nothing that we needed that wasn’t there. The access to the beach was just a short 2 minute walk with options of several boardwalks to choose from and pools also. Would HIGHLY recommend to a family looking for a quiet, relaxing beach vacation. Dean was an excellent host who provided us with restaurant recommendations and info about the area. Thank you Dean for sharing your place with my family.

Great beach. Location is about 20ish minutes from Gulf Shores so try to bring everything to minimize driving back and forth. The accommodations are great and the unit even has beach chairs, a beach cart, and beach toys. 3 pools, hot tub, sauna, and steam room were great.
