We even had a surprise visit from the Blue Angels one evening. The property managers were a simple text away and always answered quickly. The only issue was the master bedroom's mattress, although comfortable, was sagging on one side so you had to move in. Could use a new one. The ceiling vents could also use a dusting. It was a beautiful property and I would refer it to friends. ##### Diana E. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nikki J. 7 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Breathtaking Gulf Views We just spent 3 nights at this condo over the 4th of July weekend and our experience was nothing short of excellent. The condo was impeccably clean and conveniently located right by the beach, allowing us to enjoy stunning ocean views and easy access to beach and up close views of Gulf Shores Fireworks. The location was ideal, with everything we needed within walking distance. We enjoyed leisurely strolls to tourist shops, the HangOut, and resteraunts. The surrounding area offered plenty of entertainment options, making it perfect for our group of seven adults. The condo's security team was top-notch, providing a sense of safety and peace of mind throughout our stay. Checking in was a breeze, thanks to the efficient and friendly staff at GATEWAY Alabama. They were incredibly responsive and promptly answered all our questions, ensuring a smooth and pleasant experience. The condo itself was spacious and comfortable, with plenty of room for all seven of us. We never felt cramped, and the amenities provided everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation. Overall, I highly recommend this condo for anyone looking for a beachside getaway with excellent service and convenient access to local attractions. ##### Nikki J. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 4 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### San Carlos We just had a wonderful vacation at this unit. Check-in Process: Communication prior was smooth. Check-in was easy. They have a multitude of shopping carts to help you move your stuff. Condo: Fantastic condo that was well equipped. Decorated beautifully. Large double sliding doors that open up to the balcony were great. Only issue was the mattress in main BR. Definitely in need of replacement. Building: Building was clean and safe. Minimal wait times for the 3 elevators. First floor was covered parking, so it doesn't have as fancy a feel as some resorts. Location was great. Restaurants within walking distance. Hang Out is easy to get to and fun for teens. Beach: White powdery sand was of course great. They have a volleyball net set up. There is a little slope to get down to the water. Canopies can be set up but police require you to be back a bit. Beach is odd that a sand bar runs along most of the area. This makes it great if you have small kids since there is 12 in deep water for about 10 ft and then the sand bar so no waves crashing on littles. Sand bar is great for skim boarding. Waves are small so not so great for body boards. Overall great unit in a great location. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Olivia K. 7 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Overall okay - beds not accurate Positives: we love the San Carlos community, location is wonderful, beautiful beach and pool area, excellent parking access, great location in gulf shores, the unit was clean and well appointed, overall beautiful. Negatives: unit beds listing is not accurate - the 3rd room was listed as queen beds, but are double beds. Looking back at the listing - it listed in multiple places both double and queens. It’s not clear. But it IS doubles and we needed queen beds. For a unit that’s supposed to sleep multiple people - it needs more towels left than what’s left. It needs Enough for as many people as advertised for one day. Do not expect ANY early checkin from this property manager. We arrived only 30 minutes early with two toddlers and asked if we were able to check in a little early. We were told the unit had maintenance going on - we waited in the parking lot and never saw anyone leaving the unit - so no idea how they got in or out doing maintenance. We were told we could go to the beach or pool. That’s kind of hard to do not in swimwear with toddlers and a car loaded down for a 8 day stay. I know check in is at 4pm and can understand if we were asking for a lot of time but 30 mins did not seem like a big ask when housekeeping is done and it was obvious no one was in the unit. It would have been nice to have access a little earlier if the unit was ready. We were given the access code a few minutes before 4pm. ##### Olivia K.
