Resent stay

My sister and i loved the Phoenix vII with its great location and amenities. The only suggestion we would make is some furniture in the livingroom that includes either footrests

We enjoyed staying here. The ocean is so close the the pool area. Everything was clean, and everyone was nice. Gulf Shores is a peaceful alternative to crowded beaches in Florida.

Beach Stay

Great location, easy parking, elevator was great, pool was very handy and perfect beach access. The condo itself could use some TLC to make it even more enjoyable. The beach does not allow tents over 7x7x4, so our tent was not allowed. Should put that on the info.

Spring

Was not happy with this condo. Very blah! Dark rms same color in all. Ugly gold. Carpet that had humps in it and we all kept tripping on it! Curtains from a funeral home it looked like. Needs updates. Girls bed skirts dragged on floor. Would not stay in this condo again. Had 64 last year and was beautiful! Vrbo should have checked this out for there fee they charge. Shame!!

Poor communication

Overall we enjoyed our stay. I do have to say though that communication with the property manager was poor. We had several questions/issues throughout the stay and it was impossible to reach someone. Everytime we called, left messages they were either not returned or returned hours later. Lock box at arrival was broken which made check and in and check out difficult. Decor (which is not a major issue) was falling apart. We returned from swimming and a picture had completely fallen off the wall, frame broken. It had been glued together and fixed with tape. Of course these things are not functional to the condo, but some small repairs to the aesthetics of the place go a long way when spending so much on a vacation. Things shouldn't be falling off the wall because they are taped together. Pool was filthy for most of the stay, we actually had to call someone to have it cleaned which took hours. Management needs to provide list of vendors that are allowed to rent umbrells and beach chairs from. We had to walk down several condos because companies stated they were not allowed to set up there. Made it more of a hassle with all the beach things with kids. Overall great location central to alot of restaurants and attractions.

Great short stay

This is a great unit (don't understand why anyone would really give a bad review and I always read all before booking). I loved the "sunroom" and being able to open the windows and hearing the waves. Only thing I would change in the description is and I looked and didn't see anything about not being able to rent umbrella/chairs for the beach, because Condo association doesn't allow it and making storage unit more accessible if you are going to allow guests to use your beach supplies. We couldn't get into storage (due to lock being corroded) and ended up buying umbrellas. However, was a very relaxing but fast trip for my family, and if I end up in the area again, would consider booking again. Unit have more than expected! Thanks!!

Smells like smoke

The condo smells like smoke, though the listing said nonsmoking. Furniture, beds, everything all reeked of smoke. Our luggage smelled like smoke when we left. Other than that, great access to the beach and great location in town.

Beautiful Gulf Beach Views

Although we go to the Gulf Yearly, this was our first time in Gulf Shores, it was great, would definitely return, we were close to everything but this Unit is still far enough to not be overly booked with tourists, we alway have a balcony so I wasn’t sure how we would like the Sunroom area, well it was amazing, it’s like sitting on a balcony in AC, windows do open safely to listen to the beach waves if you choose to do so, I also Love the pool area, it didn’t have to big huge for my sons to love it, & it’s definitely Beach front too! Only issue we had was the Ruku Type TV wouldn’t pick up internet to watch anything but we never called about it, the master worked, the living room worked, & other than at nighttime we weren’t there to watch TV anyways, would recommend this unit!

Amazing condo just steps away from the ocean!

This place is great! Spacious for a family of 5. Clean property with gorgeous views of the gulf from the room on the 5th floor. Pool area was nice and the best part is that we were literally steps from the water! We will definitely be coming back!!!
