The view from the balcony was stunning! Could see Dolphins on more than one occasion in the morning. The location was great! It was above our expectations. On another note, there should be notices about the beach area at this location, it is umbrellas only. We booked this location for the ease of beach entrance. No tents or easy ups! There is no warning or signs. We brought a tent and were told to take it down or get a fine. It would have been nice to have a notice before we arrived. We did find some great beach areas to enjoy. ##### Jorg T.

The maids could be a bit more thorough but overall it was comfortable and clean. The beds were also comfortable. Our only complaint would be waiting on the elevators. Overall a fun time. ##### Lou S.

It is a perfect location to access the beach and the amenities of Gulf Shore. There were shopping carts available for use to transport our items from the car up to the room. It was very clean. Beautiful view of the ocean from the balcony. I would definitely go back! ##### Tiffany O.

Stayed 5 nights in May 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Marilyn B. 16 Jul 2020 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Decor, Nice Property This property was very nice and we enjoyed our stay. There were several things that needed to be done to make this a 5 star rental. The bathroom rug was not clean and needed to be washed. We would suggest a new rug in a different color. Also the floors needed to be cleaned better. There was still sand on them. The mattress cover in the master was stained. We suggest replacement. The furniture on the balcony was very pretty and comfortable but the balcony needed to be cleaned and swept. We visit New Orleans frequently and found the decor and artwork just beautiful. There were plenty of towels but some of them needed replacing. With just a few minor improvements, I would give this condo a 5+. ##### Marilyn B. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Kelly V. 23 Jun 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Great vacation spot! We loved the condo but felt as if we were a little to close to all the traffic. We have typically stayed further down and experienced less noice on the streets, and less traffic in general. Again, the venue, the management and all that was involved with the condo was great! ##### Kelly V. Stayed 5 nights in May 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Nancy B. 25 Jul 2018 #### Great location and view. Kitchen well stocked. Hidabed not comfortable for our 20 year old son. Not the cleanest place. I realize people checkout and there’s not much time to clean but need to do a deep cleaning more often. We were also in the room one evening and a cleaning person opened our front door. She said she was supposed to be on the floor above and apologized. That made me a little uncomfortable. ##### Nancy B. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2018 ---
