This get away was an amazing blessing for us. We had an awful experience with hurricane Helene in NC lost some friends in the storm. And we were able to get away from the devastation for a few days. The owners of the rental were very gracious,and good to my family. A great vacation spo.

Great stay!
Everything was nice and so clean! Would like to let the homeowner know that when we checked in, and checking out the condo, a shard of glass broken off of the master bathroom mirror was on the floor. We saved it and put it in a ziplock bag in the top bathroom drawer. Whether tenants before us broke it or cleaners; but we wanted to report it. I took a picture of it. We would love to come back! So thank you!

Spectacular view!
This corner unit feels very open with all of the windows on the west side. The wraparound balcony was awesome! The beach and pool were only steps away! The kitchen was well stocked with everything you would need to make many great meals. It was very clean and the check out process was easy. After a super hot day of activities it was so refreshing to come back to a nicely cooled room! We will definitely be back!!

The condo was in a great spot, corner unit overlooking the dunes, beach, gulf and pool. High enough for an unobstructed view (4th floor), yet low enough for a short elevator ride/wait.

Wonderful Condo/Unit
This is a beautiful, clean condo in a great location. Being on the corner with extra windows and light on the side was great. We loved that the owners provided enough basics like dishwasher & laundry detergents and bathroom supplies that we didn't need to buy any or resort to hand-washing dishes all week. The included beach chairs, umbrellas and toys were a nice addition as well. We would definitely stay here again and recommend to anyone.

As soon as we pulled up, we noticed how lovely this place was. When we opened the door to the condo, we knew this was the place for us! It was beautiful! 4 floors up, right on the beach! The patio is setup perfectly to enjoy morning views and the evening sunset. We loved the wrap around balcony. Going to and from the beach and/or pool was so easy. Elevators were quick! Communicating with Mark and Erica was easy and they responded quickly to any questions we had. The beds were super comfortable. We cannot wait to come back!

First time to Gulf Shores
The wrap around balcony is a definite plus for this condo. That's where my husband and I spent most of our time. We used only the king bed and it was very comfortable. The condo was clean and well appointed. Communication with the owner was prompt and friendly. Lovely beach. Ike's Beach Service was excellent.

Beautiful view!
This was our first time visiting Gulf Shores. And I am so happy that I chose to stay in this condo. The view of the ocean was amazing! In the morning, I loved standing on the balcony with my cup of coffee while watching the playful dolphins. Furthermore, the condo itself was very clean and the beds super comfortable. It had everything we needed to make meals. Thank you for allowing us to stay here and helping our family make wonderful memories at your place!

Everything was awesome! Everything you need right there. Cleanliness was superb. Waking up in a comfy bed to a beautiful rising sun over the Gulf! Enjoy amazing views as you sit on the wrap around deck having breakfast in the morning or wine in the evening. We also seen the most excellent display of what seemed a family reunion of dolphins jumping and playing! We highly recommend staying in this condo! We had a very blessed stay!
