About the area

Gulf Shores

Located in Gulf Shores, this condo is on the beach. While the natural beauty of Gulf Shores Beach and Gulf State Park can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can explore The Wharf. The Park at OWA and Shrimpy's Mini Golf are also worth visiting. Fishing and swimming offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with cycling nearby.

Great location on the beach, safe area, nice condo

Overall, we were very pleased with our trip to Golf Shores and our stay at the Caribbean condominiums. The location directly on the beach was nice and in close proximity to much shopping and restaurants. The condo floors could be cleaned much better as they are tile and tend to soil your feet and footwear in a short period of time Utensils and baking dishes. There is a variety, but not the easiest if you enjoy cooking.

Dogs on vacation!

We have gone to Gulf shores for over 28 years, this was the first time in 29 years we did not go with kids. This was the perfect size condo for my husband, 2 small dogs and myself. Bender helped us out with some issues to make sure our stay was great!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great facility to stay in. Easy to get in and out of. This was our second stay at the facility though in a different condo. This particular condo needs some updating and I mentioned it to the managing company. But the facility is clean and well maintained!

Perfect condo for a couple

We enjoyed our stay very much! The condo was perfect for 2 people. There were additional bunk beds tucked into the hallway wall if needed for additional guests. We enjoyed the balcony. The weather was rainy, stormy and just a little chilly - so we used the balcony most of the time and enjoyed the view despite the weather!

Mom trip

Overall was a good place. The bed was a firm mattress which I prefer a softer one but I did sleep ok. The kitchen is small but very functional for one person. The pots and pans could use an upgrade but I would stay again for that view from the patio!!šŸ˜šŸ˜

Great Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My husband and I stayed in unit #503, Caribbean condos. I loved all the beach decor. Everything was clean and organized. The balcony overlooking the beach was great. We could see porpoises (or dolphins) swimming from our balcony. Everyone was so nice and friendly. We prepared breakfast and lunch in the condo and then ate at local restaurants for dinner. We had a good supply of dishes and pots/pans. The bed was very comfortable. It was very quiet and peaceful. We had a problem with one of the TVs and we called Benber and maintenance came within 30 minutes and fixed it. We had a great vacation.

Great view

Inspection of property would have revealed sliding glass door was difficult to open/close, shower curtain torn, microwave had window damage which eventually resulted in it quitting altogether. Staff were immediately helpful when advised of issues, replacement staff was quick and efficient. At least 6 people never cleaned up after their dogs, and one less tha 30 # dog was a Rottweiler 😳.

Great location but needs updates

Overall this property was pretty nice. The location was perfect because it was just outside the touristy locations but you could still get to everything pretty quickly. The condo could use some major updating and the elevator was sometimes a little sketchy but the view from the balcony made up for it. The listing also says it sleeps 6 comfortably, which is a stretch. I would say this condo sleeps 3 adults comfortably and two kids who can fit on the bunks. Overall this condo did the job but some updates could be made.

Condo with great views, but!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was fine but the bed was terrible. The slightest movement caused it to squeak terribly! We slept on the bunk mattresses on the sofa bed. I could not open the balcony door and my husband could barely open it. The air quit our 2nd day and had to be worked on. They had it fixed but wasn’t working by our fifth day. If they get these things fixed it would be a good place to stay.

Nice Condo, could use some TLC

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, this was a nice rental. The condo was very clean with the exception of the floors which were very dirty. Our feet were black within 30 minutes of walking around. Some of the linens should be replaced we had a bath towel that was ripped in 3 places that was folded up and placed out for our use. Some of the sinks fixtures have rust in the basins. Condo is decorated nice and the owners have placed nice touches such as dvds and books for use. The property was nice and quiet. The mattress should definately be replaced. It is an older property but that is expected with a smaller complex which is fine. The pool was nice and very clean. There is also no way to secure the unit from the inside. If someone has the door code then they can get into the unit even if you are in there. There is no separate deadbolt or security latch which felt weird. With some minor attention this unit would be perfect.

Great view but that's about it

Upon arrival to the condo we smelt a horrible burnt popcorn smell and there was a smoke detector beeping with a low battery. We contacted Bender right away and the did come to check it out immediately but all he did was spray white vinegar everywhere and change the battery. This did nothing but make it smell like burnt popcorn and now vinegar. The smell was so bad our cooler and clothes stunk when we got back home to Missouri. The screen was ripped pretty much completely out of the patio door and I was told the owners don't care about that and no one uses them anyway. Aside from the screen being ripped out the door was incredibly hard to open and close. The drain in the shower did not work well so you were constantly standing in a pool of water while showering. They wanted all dishes to be cleaned and put away but did not give you enough soap or dishwashing liquid to do so. The covered parking spot provided to us was next to the pool gate that opened toward my full size truck in a very small spot so we had to park outside the whole time. I will have to say that if it wasn't for the breathtaking view we had from our balcony we would have made other arrangements and moved to a new location. Our first family beach vacation was not what we had in mind when we walked through the door of Caribbean 503. Will not make reservations at this location again in the future.

You should be ashamed of yourselves

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Unbelievably nasty disgusting filthy place. The floors were gross like they haven't mopped in years, didn't even smell clean we had to buy air fresheners (we left them for you please use in the future). The pillows hav eyellow disgusting stains on them, there was a Big stain on the sheets in the middle of the bed (looks like from you know what) I dont think you even washed the sheets. The cover around the side of bed is black and has stains is nasty gross. Completely unsanitary! The floor on the deck is filled with sticky blackend stains, you have obvioulst not cleaned it in years. That area should be a staple of the visit to sit on the deck with ocean views should be a memorable experience and I feel like I may need a tetanus shot from being there. Then you ruined my entire last day of vacation as we travel with a small dog and you had the audacity to send a text saying that you were going to send over a pest control man and you had no idea what time and we feared he may let himself in at anytime and possible let our pet out and in addition we don't want people in our rental unit while we are not there so we felt like we couldn't leave the pet alone all day! thanks for ruining my wife's 50th birthday surprise. Some ladies with a code just walked in on us... and acted like they wanted to talk to us! To sum it up its a filthy shithole and not what one would expect when renting a vacation rental. The attitude to let people in whenever you see fit is appalling! I was contacted by Juleee who offered $142 discount in her words" to make this right" Insulting The pictures do not reflect the real nasty condition of the property I have tons of photos showing the real condition. And its un liveable even for a week!
