This was a nice rental. My husband and I and our three kids stayed here. I can say honestly that the only frustration was not knowing that the complex is gated with a code that we didn’t have when we arrived -after hours. I couldn’t get ahold of the property management so I had to call VRBO. We luckily got it quickly. Getting my key to the room was easy because they had the directions on the desk in the front office. The place was mostly clean. It really needs a top to bottom cleaning. It looked just like the photos. It gave you just the bare minimum of the necessary items -2 rolls of TP, 1 paper towel, 2-dishwasher soap, 2 washer detergent, small container of dish soap. They didn’t have any kitchen wash cloths or any scrubbies. The pots and pans and utensils were in good supply. The tvs were helpful (1in each bedroom and 1 in living. We were on the bottom floor(103) and right by the 1 heated pool-1 is not heated. My kids loved it and it was so convenient right by our room with a gate out to it. We met some really nice regulars that gave us Michiganders grace when we let our kids in the pool before pool opening time. (Hour time difference) They did give us great areas, not advertised, to go check out. We even spent one day in Gulf shores and ate at LuLu’s restaurant.(AMAZING) The ferry was great and quick and we drove back which is a shorter than expected trip with some cool sights! The ocean was nice but a little too murky for my family to enjoy and there was alot of dead Red Fish washed in, (unknown fish kill we were told)but it didn’t deter us enough not to enjoy some grilled Red Fish at LuLu’s restaurant. Overall this Island is a great place to relax. It’s not overly busy which is amazing and there are some busier places not too far away if you’re needing more hustle and bustle.
