Summer Fun

Well maintained and very convenient with teenagers being close to The Hangout. Also very secure if you come with small children. You have to have a key to get to the pool and to access the beach.

Fine Accomodation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Entry was seamless. All prior instructions were clear and accurate. Condo was clean and ready for the stay. The two La-Z-Boy rocker recliners were the best seating we've enjoyed in any stay. The Bender property managers were friendly, stayed in touch and responded breathtakingly fast with the only issue we encountered (not their fault or the Gulf Towers). Access to parking, pool and beach was outstanding. Would work with Bender again in the future.

Condo was nice and clean aside from the bedside lamp switch being broken large vechicles will have problems moving through the parking lot but other than that it was very clean and just as listed we will probably stay there again if available

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our room was very nice. Love the location and view from 8th floor was beautiful but Doors to patio were very hard to slide open. Loved that there were two elevators and only 4 units per floor. Hardly ever had to wait for the elevator. Wish there was an easier way to transport chairs, coolers, etc to the beach except by going thru the pool area but do understand the reason (privacy from outside visitors not staying there). Overall very pleased.

Nice place with great view and easy access to the beach. There was a piece of tape over the toaster with “fire hazard” written on it. Odd that no one thought to either replace or just remove it. The only reason I don’t give 5 stars is that the pool is apparently a smoking area, and any time someone smoked we had to close the balcony because the smoke would pour into the condo.

Relaxing and Clean!!

This was our first time staying at the Gulf shores and let me tell you it did not disappoint.. It was a super cute condo just the right size for us and an awesome beach view!! The sunrises from the balcony were breathtaking and all shops and restaurants were all within a close reach. Room was clean and neat with access to beach. We will definitely be back..

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: IT WAS PRETTY GOOD. THERE WERE JUST SOME MINOR ISSUES.1. There are two elevators and one did not work half of the time. This caused some long waits and cramped elevators.2. My son slept on the sleeper sofa. Upon removing the cushions we found the sleeper part was covered in crumbs. Had obviously not been checked/cleaned by house keeping in quite a while. Also, there were no sheets/pillow cases to be found in any of the closets. He had to sleep on the bare mattress and pillows. On checkout day we found a platic bag on linens outside on the porch.
