We have stayed in this unit on three separate occasions and like it a lot. The layout is great, with each bedroom having a private bath and a huge balcony with super views of the ocean. Location is convenient and there is plenty of parking.

We love the location, size of unit is perfect for us. We’ve never had issues with A/C or bugs in August before but this year was different. We saw 5 roaches during our stay, the air wasn’t super cool but we made do with the ceiling fans. Exterminator came and sprayed the kitchen and utility only. What we love is the size of the unit for our family. The decor is old so we don’t have to worry about the kids hurting anything.

Great location on beach and for eating places. Unfortunately the condo was very dirty. It also needs updating. Beds are old as well as the sheets. Washer had something like grease and ruined some of our clothes. Pools were very well maintained, ample parking, and the beach is just beautiful.

Our 2nd time to rent this penthouse. Perfect accommodations for our needs, 4 BR, 4 Bth, every family had their own bedroom and private bath. Open concept kitchen/dining and family room. Quick elevator service and plenty of parking. The pool area is perfect for little ones with a wade-in pool deck. We did have an incidence with someone sideswiping our car in the parking garage but that wasn't held against the Lighthouse. Perfect accommodations for us. Thanks, and until next year.....

The room is amazing it looks exactly like the list very spacious and comfortable for our group. The only down falls were the door key pad getting in is very difficult to use we had to put the code in several at least 4 times before its let us in. And the couch wasnt put together it came apart everytime someone would sit on it. Other than those small things our stay was amazing location very 10 out of 10

Absolutely beautiful view of Gulf!!! Large kitchen, living room and dining room. Downside: This was the filthiest couch I have ever see top and sides by very visual stains. We had to use towels to set on. In master bedroom above toilet was black mold. When I opened the slider to the deck a cockroach was on the floor.

The location is perfect. We’ve stayed here for the past 5 years but each year the place isn’t being updated. The dishwasher didn’t work. The place needs painting and updating of the furniture. The Vacasa / lighthouse employees were extremely friendly and helpful.

The only things we did not like about the room is that it’s on the top floor so there’s no roof over the patio and it’s very echoey, not good installation. Other than that we had a blast

Great things: view, spacious common areas, plenty of pool space, quick walk to restaurants and the beach, and security was tight with returning at night (post Hangout music festival) which was safe! Needs improvement: cleanliness (trash bag of towels left in the unit), bathtub drain in secondary bedroom had not been cleaned in some time, and VERY FEW toiletries provided (one roll of paper towels and two trash bags), no pantry staples (not even salt/pepper or coffee filters). A 10 guest unit for a 4 day stay will need more than what was given, and should not have to be purchased by the guests. Overall we had a great time in a great location, but a few things to improve on for future guests to make it 5 stars.

We cousins spent extra money to enjoy "the penthouse". This penthouse is in dire need of updating. The sofa was so dirty we had to put towels down to sit. The bathrooms were moldy and outdated; the balcony had 3 lounge chairs but the cushions were torn and unusable. We were very disappointed.

The view is amazing and the size of the condo is perfect. There is a lot of potential for this place but was disappointed with the cleanliness and customer service. We were notified on such short notice about a shower not working and had no option but to make it work for our large group. Upon arrival there was a clogged toilet with stool in it … we were able to fix it ourselves but to wake up to it overflowing into one of the bedrooms. Again, we were able to fix it ourselves and take care of the issue. The sectional couch was broken in all sections where it had to be sat on in individual units. When we folded it out to use the pull out couch, it was saturated in urine or vomit to the point the entire condo smelt horrific we had to leave. Not to mention the entire sectional was so stained and felt dirty. We immediately contacted customer service to remove the couch or mattress from it however, the issue was never resolved. After getting in touch with them everyday multiple times a days, the couch was never removed or cleaned. No one even came to look at it. The left us clean sheets at the door the day before our departure as if that was going to make it sleepable. We had no option but to buy air up mattress to accommodate our sleeping arrangements. Extremely disappointed with our stay and we will not be booking here or through this company again.

Views were amazing and space was great for our family. Condo is very dated and needs updating. Kitchen is not fully stocked but very limited. The worst part are the roaches. Complained and was told they were leftovers that didn’t get sprayed. No beach towels or beach chairs/toys. Will look elsewhere next time we visit Gulf Shores
