The room was spot on as advertised. Everything worked as it should in the room. The view was good from the balcony. Exiting the parking lot was a little tricky, but nothing that deserves a negative comment.

Loved the location!

Great location- easy access to Gulf Shores and Orange Beach. Building isn’t the prettiest thing to look at but inside of apartment was nice enough. Parking spaces/lot could use some new line markings.

Quick get away

We came down on 5 July and returned on 9 July. Wife and I wanted to go somewhere quick just to reset. Our 2 granddaughters (13 yrs old) found out and we don’t say no to them so they came with us. It was Great! We were right on the beach. Check in / Checkout in were effortless. Very clean. I would only recommend that the master bath be converted into a stand up shower only. Very useable bathroom don’t get me wrong. Having a standup shower, would give you more room. The place was exactly like the photos. No surprises, you see what you get. We will be back and we hope the grandkids get to come back with us. Wonderful time spent making memories with the 3rd generation.

The view and accessibility to the beach were incredible! The condo was spotless, and you even get two parking passes. It’s conveniently located near everything. I definitely plan to stay again.
