Fantastic Direct Gulf Front Condo ~ Walk to Hangout-Perfect for Beach Bums

Lovely beachfront condo with only a short walk to the water and the sugar white sandy beach. Relax and enjoy yourself at this 2 bedroom, 2 bath beachfront condo. Spectacular views and a serene setting are yours from the private balcony. The beach is only a few short steps away.

Enjoy the newly-remodeled fully-equipped kitchen with new granite countertops, and other amenities. Each bedroom has its own private full-bath. Enjoy a tile walk in shower in beachfront bedroom with king size bed.

Nice private balcony with breathtaking views of the Gulf. Three charcoal grills in the grilling area with covered picnic tables and chairs. There is a lovely swimming pool and a large lounging area with swings and lounge chairs.

Incredible location between the State Pier and The Hangout area. The Lighhouse is next door. Waffle House and shops across the road. Easy walking distance to many restaurants and entertainment spots.

We wanted a clean, comfortable place close to beach with great view and we got it. The location to restaurants, shopping, and walking to fun activities made it perfect. The owners were great to work with. We are already planning next stay.

Directions and check-in/check-out were clear and stress-free. The property was clean, cute, and provided all we needed for our family. We had easy access to the beach and pool and a great ocean view. Beaches were beautiful and there were lots of places to visit, eat, and shop.

The location of condo and being beachfront was ideal. You can open the door and hear waves your entire stay. Overall the property was as listed and we had a great time. The only suggestion would be an update to the bathtubs as they seem to be only thing not renovated over time in the property. Again, the location was fantastic property was as listed. We had a great family vacation.

Condo was nice, just a few things that wasn’t available. Lightbulbs in the living room were not working. Other than that I will definitely be planning on staying here again next year.

Everything was perfect about this condo! From location, amenities, cleanliness, everything was updated and modern and we had absolutely everything we could need! ONLY issue was cable in the guest room didn’t work but we weren’t in the room enough to care to call the cable company so it wasn’t a big deal for us. Myra was amazing for any and all questions we had. We will definitely be back! Thanks for allowing us your gorgeous piece of heaven for the week!

Property and condo were smaller than expected but ended up being a plus because the beach was not as crowded as larger properties. Condo wasn’t cleaned when we got there but property manager rectified very quickly with cleaning crew cleaning and disinfecting very well. Condo had all amenities needed and great view. The property had a very friendly family oriented clientele. Everything you need is not far from condo including kids entertainment, food and restaurants. Would book again.

This was our first trip to Gulf Shores and we were extremely pleased with the location of this property. You have sidewalks to walk to many restaurants and a grocery store…I would suggest walking when you can in the evenings traffic can get pretty thick. The building offers a pool for when you need a break from the saltwater and convienent carts to bring up luggage and groceries to your condo. As for the condo we loved the layout! Master was split from the guest bedroom. Worked out perfectly for our 12 yo to have her space on the bunk beds and 10 yo to have the separate full size to himself. The master had a great view of the ocean AND you can hear the waves:) We will definitely try to stay in this unit again when we return to Gulf Shores!

Upon arrival we opened the balcony door (no lock on door) only to find the railing to be wrapped in blue plastic, ropes and cables hanging down leading to scaffolding. The owner failed to disclose that building maintenance (prepping the building to be painted/painting) was ongoing. When we called to ask her about it she became defensive and said “I cannot keep up with everything that goes on down there; what do you want me to do? Come down there and make them stop”? She said we should’ve done our research before driving all the way down there. We did do our research. There were several other condos that said “ongoing renovations”. We avoided those condos for that reason. Once again she FAILED to disclose that the building was being prepped for painting etc. Also, the front door would barely latch and that was a safety concern for us. She then said there is no crime here, this is Gulf Shores not Nashville (we are from the Nashville area). We were unable to sit on the balcony in peace as there was scaffolding, ropes and cables hanging in front of our balcony the entire time. Along with paint chips, dust and small pieces of debris falling constantly. At times workers were looking right at us, and at one point jumped on the balcony with us. We were awoken by the workers pounding on the building and the sounds of their power tools every morning right outside our window. Additionally, the condo could’ve been cleaner, we were unable to use the master shower due to the filthy tub and shower curtain. There were hairs everywhere on the floors. Bottom line is we picked this condo because it had excellent reviews. I’m not sure how she achieved that. She had the worst attitude she did not care one bit about what was happening and she basically told me so. When I told her I was unhappy with the rental she just said “okay”. She was so rude, patronizing, unprofessional and hateful. She offered no alternatives or resolution (other than to chill that we had beautiful weather). I text her when we left the condo as instructed. She didn’t even have the common courtesy to say thank you. This is our fifth year coming to Gulf Shores and we have never had an experience like this! I would absolutely NOT recommend this condo largely due to the owner. It was a horrible experience and our entire trip was ruined!

This rental has everything you want for a stay at Gulf Shores! My family and I spent our indoor time on the balcony looking out at the tides, watching the boats. It's a few short steps to the beach and right on the main road with all the restaurants and attractions you would want. I'd definitely come back again!

Mrs. Myra was so easy to work and communicate with. Had an issue with the dryer when got there and she was on the ball getting it fixed and even offered to pick up wet clothes and take them to her house and dry them! Location close to everything we needed.

The location was great and the check in process was very easy. The condo was not very clean. There was a half used bar of soap in the shower, as well as a used wash rag behind the shower curtain. There was sand in the bed between the comforter and top sheet. I ended up washing and drying all the sheets again and it was already pretty late. Most other areas of the condo appeared clean. The elevator was broken for most of our stay. The location was great and the market across the street was very convenient. The condo setup was nice and convenient for a family with kids.

I wanted a location close to The Hangout for the teens, safe for the young kids, and near Walmart for all the groceries and beach goodies we needed. This condo checked all those boxes besides having a beautiful view and a pretty, clean condo. I will definitely be back!
