Recent Gulf Shores guest reviews

We have a group that schedules a vacation once a year together. The location of this condo has great access to the beach it was amazing. We had to schedule multiple time due to the hurricanes this year. We tried this new place, the sand was white and the ocean was in the back yard. The balcony in the room and the pool was not available, (closed). When booking here make sure we are asking about the amenities. They will not tell you until it is to late to cancel. You will also need to rent a car, to go into town. The furniture needs to be upgraded, including both queen sizes beds. The condo was clean and was comfortable for three couples with plenty of room. Kitchen was well equipped.

Great gulf front view, easy walk to restaurants/bars During our stay, there were 2 tables with 4 chairs each as well as 2 loungers on the deck, not shown in pictures. There were also 4 collapsible lawn chairs, a beach chair and a beach umbrella in the laundry room which was very handy. There are no beach towels in unit or at pool. Remember to bring with you!
