Great location, awesome trip

This was our first trip to Gulf Shores and it did not disappoint. The location was perfect, the view from the balcony was on point, ease of beach access was exactly what I wanted. I appreciated a virtual check in/check out so we didn’t have to make an extra stop. We plan to come back next summer and I will definitely check for this condo’s availability to stay there again.

Weekend getaway

Outside was not impressive when we drove up, its an older building but don't let that fool you. The condo was very well maintained, comfortable and furnished with everything you could possibly need for a vacation trip. Communication was excellent. We had zero issues and will definitely book again.

Trip with grands

First of all you can book directly through poole.properties@realestate-gulfshores.com and save a little money. They are awesome and the agents there were extremely nice and helpful!! I will for sure use them again when booking in Gulf Shores!! VRBO says to not pay any outside agent but that is exactly what they made me do. They took their cut and sent me to Poole properties to pay them directly. They were super nice and helpful. As far as the condo, it was clean. The room and the property need updating. The doors on the laundry room is terrible. One is broke and they are slide doors. Making it very hard to do laundry. The trash disposal is broke. The bar in the second bath was broke. The stoppers in the baths does not work properly. There needs to be some hooks by the front door. It always took several tries to get the lock on the door to unlock . with the code. The master bed is a queen not a king. There is not a bathroom by the pool. You have to go all the way back to the room, with children that was hard. With that all said, the kitchen was well stocked and all the beds were extremely comfortable. There was plenty of towels for bathing but not for the kitchen. All and all, we had a wonderful time! Thanks for sharing your condo with us.

We enjoyed this property! It was cool, clean and nice size! The view was amazing, right on the beach. There is also a large nice pool. I liked where the location was. Not as busy as it is a few blocks away. There is so much to do in the area and a beautiful beach! We will be back!

Great place for family vacation

It would be nice to have beach chairs available to use, but the rentals were fine. The elevator could be a little quicker, but overall we had a great experience!

4/10 Poor

Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Communication
Pros: location and every room in the building is beach frontCons: a fridge that doesn’t get cool enough, a cockroach in the bedroom, glass table tops that are not secured, a DVD and VHS player that do not have the correct cords to play, we do not feel it was supplied very well as far as “complementary items” in comparison to other condos we have stayed in at Gulf Shores. It is a very old building and that shows in the features. The water hose from the beach did not work the whole time and with a baby, the hose is the thing we needed. The closet door in the “master bedroom” was broken. The shower head in the “master bedroom” bathroom did not work properly to come down and spray the baby off. The carpet in the living room is terrible. With crawling/waking baby, this rug was incredibly dirty and hard to clean the sand off from it. The fibers stick to all clothes.

Cute & Spacious

We booked for 4 nights. It smelled good and was clean when we arrived. Loved how open and spacious it was. Also loved the location. It was so close to shops, restaurants, grocery stores, etc. It was also close to the beach so not a long walk at all. The day we arrived, the dryer wasn’t working. We called the after hours line & I called the next morning. It was fixed on Day 3 of our stay, bummer but glad it was fixed in time to wash before leaving. We also couldn’t use the dishwasher due to the garbage disposal in sink being clogged/full so it would back into the dishwasher. Both somewhat minor things. I would consider booking with the same host & condo again!

Beware of the public beach access!!

The Pros: Management Company is GREAT. Condo was clean and I did like that the complex was only 6 floors. The Cons: The condo complex and the condo are old and outdated. The linens are from the 90’s and the furniture is very uncomfortable. No king bed in the master and the water pressure is horrible in bathrooms. The listing didn’t mention how close the complex is to public beach access. This was a BIG problem during our stay. Those accessing the public beach would set up their beach chairs in front of the complex’s beach area leaving no room for those actually staying at the complex to sit. This would start every morning at 7 am. Also, they would park in the condo complex’s parking lot! We had parking passes but no one was checking because those without passes should have been towed. Very frustrating when you are a paying guest and can’t enjoy the amenities and beach access.
