Recent Gulf Shores vacation rental reviews

This was a great condo! The location is fantastic and within walking distance to great restaurants and the views are incredible. The condo had a well stocked kitchen. We had no problem cooking up meals. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of seating. A few board games were there to use, but no beach items. We had brought our own so that was fine but it's always nice to know if traveling with kids. Will definitely stay here again.

Away from the tourist noise. Tucked in at the Big Lagoon was a restful location. Watching nature. Everything was clean and comfy.
Jane F. | Dec 2023
Everything was clean and neat. Everything worked perfectly. Did not have to replace batteries or light bulbs or anything as we have had to do in other condos we have stayed in,
