Across from beach.
Wonderful view from the 4th floor. Makeup on pillows in 1 room. They need to clean under the beds. Couldn't find the extra bed in great room ( they had sheets for it). Pool lights were out. Tile and skimmers need to be regrouted.

The unit was roomy and had a nice view.
The beds made a lot of noise just sitting on them or every time you rolled over. We were in unit 1006. The leather? chair in the living room was all peeling and some of the balcony furniture needed replacing - it was either very rusted or was broken. It would have been nice to have some beach equipment available in the unit as well, since we heard that some of the units had that. The view was great and the living space very roomy. Most everything else was in good condition except some of the nonstick pans.

Wonderful family apartment
Our family of 6 had never been to Gulf Shores. This apartment was the perfect size for us. Only complaints was master bath did not drain (too much sand down drain) and half bath had no toilet paper, towels or soap.

Abandoned and run down
The carpet n the condo has seen its last days. The hallway bathroom was disgusting, dirty and stinky! Redo the parking lot your buding looks run down and abandoned. I will never stay there again. The office of the handy man looks like something from a hoarders episode! Wouldn't be that serious if I didn't have to Pass it when I went to swim or workout!

"Very Uncomfortable Mattresses, Rock Hard!!"
The Hotel room was nice and the place was nicely decorated. What I didn't like was the HARD Mattresses! The place had granite countertops, crown moulding, a nice big balcony, washer & dryer but the condo owner has HARD VERY UNCOMFORTABLE mattresses? We felt like we were sleeping on a piece of wood with a sheet over it.I wanted to get up that night and check out but didn't want to have to pay for that condo and another one. We were in room #303 so if you stay there DON'T TAKE that room! Elevator was super fast,water pressure was great - Owner PLEASE INVEST in NEW COMFORTABLE MATTRESSES!! People are driving Long Distances and then can't get comfortable! I Will Never Rent an individualy owned Condo again because of this experience.

Have to check in/out at a remote location. There is no one on site for any questions or problems. Pool was 3' deep. Other than that it was a nice spacious room. The walk to the beach is ok, no private access so you're basically at the public beach.

We loved the beach! It was absolutely beautiful! We were somewhat disappointed in our room. The carpet needs a deep cleaning or replaced. The iron did not work, the footboard was broke and the beds are very hard and uncomfortable. It was not fully furnished with trashbags and toilet paper. Also, noone informed us as to what should of been or not been furnished. We also thought we were getting a room with 1 king, 2 singles, and a sofa bed. That is NOT what we got. It was 2 kings, and a sofabed. We are a family of 5. Our kids are teens. They need their own beds. That is what I thought I was getting and that is WHY I booked this particular room, but it was all a deciption.

Family vacation
The view was incredible. We had an 11th floor condo and the entire wall to the gulf was glass. Condo was adequately furnished with basic kitchen supplies. The only negative was the televisions. I think they were leftovers from the 90's. I know we were on vacation to a beach, but you can only be in the sun so much. We're a sports family and the basketball playoffs were on and the broadcast signal didn't even fit the screens to these dinosaurs. That said, I would still recommend the Sanibel for vacation.

Sanibel
This was a great place to stay. It was across the street from the ocean and that concerned me, but once I got there I realized it wasn't any further than I've walked from resorts right on the beach. We stayed in 1001. It was furnished very nicely and had 3 bedrooms, each with it's own bath. Granite countertops and nice features. I only asked for a two bedroom but got this one. When we decided to stay longer, we simply picked up the phone in the room and they gave us a very discounted price.

Nice ocean view
This is a spacious condo. Very roomy. It was quite clean when we arrived, and had all the things we needed. The walk to the beach is short and it's a really nice ocean front. Sand is pearly white. We enjoyed our stay and would stay there again. Elevator was fast and parking was ample. On the downside, TVs were old tube type -- no flatscreens, no HD, but that was not a big deal. Wi-fi was spotty and unreliable. The surrounding property is pretty basic, not much in the way of landscaping or amenities. Pool is small. There is no hot tub. Fitness room is underwhelming. Not many restaurants or stores within walking distance.

Nice Condo.
The Condo was very nice but master bed was hard.. The overall stay was very nice but charging $134 to clean up the place that required one set of bed sheets and towels to Be washed was way to much.. The only reason I wouldn't go back was due to the very high cleaning cost..

Nice "Hotel," But Lacking In Some Respects:
The TV system was antiquated. We couldn't play a movie DVD at all in the bedrooms, and only accidentally was able to play one on the 20+ year old system in the family room. Due to some disabilities, I walk some distances with great effort. The walk (with armloads of beach stuff needed) from the building to the beach was over 3 blocks with 1/3 of it sand. If we ever come back to a nice condo with swimming pool, etc., we will need one on the beach side, and with more up-to-date TV equipment. My most serious complaint is the lack of security with old fashioned common door keys. My older son came in one day and found a guy fooling with our cooking range. He said that a needed repair was being attempted on one of our burners. (He didn't fix it.) This could have been scheduled before our check in. There is NO reason for ANYONE to enter our room without our being present to let them in. After all, Sanibel Condos is NOT a hotel. Hotels have daily maid service, and Heaven knows, at $134 we paid for it. Also, upon arriving there was no soap, no dish detergent, and no toilet paper. We had to go 2 miles and back to a store and buy them. Then, on the second day your service people brought them in a plastic bag along with liner bags for the trash can in the pantry.

Nice room - walk across busy street - no hot tub
Our room was fantastic and the condo itself was nice, but a little sterile because there's no real presence of a lobby or other communal area. The office is hidden with a very small seating area in front of the fitness room. The place was advertised to have a hot tub but we were disappointed to find that it is NOT a hot tub, just a kiddie pool. It was also kind of a bummer to have to walk across the busy street to get to the beach. The place was advertised as "Gulf Front."

Great Condo, close to the beach
Loved our condo. Elevators were an experience though. Most of the time we would have to wait on an elevator at least 15 minutes and there were times when kids would shove carts in the elevator doors and stop the elevator for a period of 20 minutes. More elevators would be appropriate and I don't know what would help with the kid problem.

Gulf Shores Mini Vacation
We absolutely loved the condo! Great view, nice pool. I do have one little gripe and that isn't with the condo, but with Resort Quest. It was not mentioned anywhere on my reservations that I needed to stop by the realtors office to check in and pick up our room keys. When we arrived at the condo there is not reception area on the lower level and we were very confused for quite a while as to how we would check in and getting a little nervous. Fortunately, a guest who was staying there told us that there is an office on the 2nd floor by the exercise room. There was nobody in the office, but there was a phone number on the door. So, we called that number and they were able to put us in touch with the realtor who gave us directions on how to get there to pick up the keys. Once we got that taken care of, our stay was very pleasant and the condo was perfect for our needs.

Condo close to the beach
WE arrived at the condo only to find out after 1 1/2 hours on the phone with Expedia that we should be checking in at a real estate building to receive our keys and room number this should be part of the itinerary you send to people the dishwasher was not fastened under the cabinet so it fell forward every time you pulled out the drawers we had clothes left in the dryer and it was full of sand not many towels in the room no potholders and only 2 dish towels the drain was slow in the master bath tub nails were coming out where the carpet and tile meet in the dining room If we are required to pay for anything that is missing we should have an inventory of what is suppose to be there when we check in Cleaning fees should be included in the price expedia charges not an extra fee For the price I expected better

The condo was in a convenient location, close to several restaurants and on the beach. The room was clean when we arrived, which is good since there is a $134 cleaning fee. We had a 3br 2bath penthouse. Which was perfect for 4 adults two kids. Really enjoyed our stay :)

Not very satisfied
The room was full of cob webs like it had not been used in several weeks. The sheet rock ceiling was crumbling and looked bad in the living room and bed room exposing sheet rock seems. Very disappointed. I make several business trips to Gulf Shores and thought I would give Resort Quest a try. Will go back to using Brett Robinson properties.
