You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

JUST STEPS TO THE BEACH! THIRD floor makes it feel like you are on the beach!

How and where do we start to describe to guests about what they can expect at this coastal beach condo in the heart of Gulf Shores? First of all, you will enjoy terrific ocean views from the large corner balcony. Our condo is well positioned to have both a great view of the beach as well as the beautiful blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico. The balcony is perfectly positioned and perfect for night sky star gazing and daytime dolphin spotting.

Another plus about this unit is that it is on the third floor, just one floor above the second floor parking deck. If you don't want to have to use the elevator you just have one flight of stairs and you are there.

The condo is comfortably furnished and flooded with natural light from the east facing wall of windows. The bedrooms are a split design with each having an attached bathroom. The main bedroom has a king size bed and opens on to the balcony and that gorgeous view of the Gulf of Mexico. The kitchen is well equipped and there is a table with 4 chairs and there are even more stools for additional seating.

Building amenities include a weight/exercise room with recently purchased equipment, a family game room with pool table, sauna, and indoor and outdoor pool with hot tub.

We also own Crystal Shores #802. VRBO 3129539 and Lighthouse #414 VRBO 4318814

Beach time!

Everything was great! except the mattress in the master bedroom was a challenge to get in and out of due to the mattress sinking in to much. Beach time was great. Thank you

Great stay

Our room was great, the king bed could use an upgrade. The room was very clean and nice . The pool area really needs upgraded. The sauna was out of order all week 😢 but we had a great time. Our host was very nice and so helpful.

The condo was very spacious with everything you could want. The cookware was well beyond what we have ever seen in a rental before. The balcony is great! Sitting on the balcony gives the illusion to being on the beach however under shade. The breeze on the balcony is amazing. We just loved it and will be back

Gulf shores trip 2024

We enjoyed the view from the balcony! We were hardly ever in the condo, but it was well furnished. There were a few cosmetic issues, but not a big deal. We discovered the couch was not a pull out couch, but we made it work! Would recommend this property. We were able to communicate with the owner quickly when needed. This place has a nice view and easy access to the beach!

Beautiful condo with an Amazing View!!

5 star review from our family. (Mom, Dad, 2 teen boys). From the boys, we loved the on site gym so, we could get our pump on before hitting the beach. Us parents loved the amazing view of the gulf and beach. Perfectly shaded balcony in the evening which made for great people watching, dolphins watching, and cocktails. The condo has everything you need to have a wonderful stay and is perfectly located in Gulf Shores. Plenty of restaurants and attractions near by. Never would I thought that an on site ice vending machine would make a huge difference but, that was an amazing surprise. Load the coolers, grab a bag of ice from the vending machine on the ground level, and head down to the beach. Easy peasy!! Amazing host who responded almost immediately to any questions I had as visitors to Gulf Shores. Highly recommend and we will be back very soon.
