Anniversary trip
Everything about Sophun was wonderful! The decor is so cute, it is very clean, and you can't beat the views from the 12th floor balcony! Meryl was the perfect hostess and always immediately responded to any questions we had. It was the perfect place for a long weekend to celebrate our 30th anniversary. Would also be perfect for a family with 2 younger children. Highly recommend!

PERFECT VACAY!
The condo is nice, roomy, and exactly as described except BETTER in person!! Meryl truly cares about your experience at Gulf Shores being the best. The ocean is literally steps away and the parking space is very close to the elevator. The overall location was easy to find and get to restaurants or stores. The building was clean and well kept. We will book again in the future!!

Our favorite place
This is our 3rd year in a row staying for a mom/daughter summer beach vacation. Me and my 2 daughters love it here! The condo is decorated beautifully and is always so spotless clean when we arrive. Fully stocked with whatever you could possibly need. The view is breath taking. And you could not ask for a better host than Ty and Meryl. They are so welcoming and easy to communicate with. This will forever be our condo for our mother/daughter girls vacation. We’ve made lots of memories the last 3 years. You won’t be disappointed!

Weekend vacation
My husband and I had a wonderful time while staying at this condo over Memorial Day weekend. The check in instructions were detailed, clear, and easy. I loved that there was reserved parking. We did not have to wait long for the elevator. The condo was clean and had an excellent view of the ocean. My husband and I enjoyed playing the board games that were provided. I personally liked the fact that the facility as a whole is a smoke-free facility. The condo was just steps from the beach! Very couple or family friendly. 10/10 recommend this condo. Will be keeping this condo saved/ in mind for future trips to Gulf Shores.

When we saw the property listed; it said rent 4 nights and fifth night free. This was in May when we contacted them regarding the 5th night free we were told that expired in November. So the ad on line was a little misleading. We did enjoy our stay.

Wonderful condo with a beautiful view. Right on the beach. Down a little ways from the main drag so the beach was populated but not crowded. Enjoyed watching the sunrise and sunset and saw dolphins every morning not far off the beach. It was amazing. Could walk down to the main drag, was a little bit of a hike but doable. Lots to do in the area if you choose or just relax and enjoy the beach. Would definitely stay here again.

Great location overlooking the beach. Plenty to do without the big crowds found at other popular vacation spots further south. Cool mornings with bright sunshine throughout day. I made use of the hot tub , pool and local golf courses. The zoo was also a fun afternoon. I’ll be back and bring a couple golfing buddies next time.
