Tropic Isles 101 - Beautiful Beachfront Condo - Completely renovated since Sally

Wait until you see all of the updates. This condo's been completely redone since Hurricane Sally. The building has also received a facelift and is just beautiful! Come see for yourself!

You'll fall in love with this 1st floor beachfront condo at Tropic Isles (not ground floor). This beautifully decorated 2 BR/2BA sleeps 6 with a king bed in the master bedroom with an incredible walk-in shower and wide-open master bathroom. In the second bedroom, you'll find a queen and a set of twin bunk beds. Interior appointments include a fully equipped kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances and an oven with a warming drawer, 3 TVs, DVD player, fireplace, hair dryers, beach chairs, washer and dryer, a work desk with space for all your charging needs, a gulf front balcony accessible via the living room, an assigned parking spot, and high-end cotton linens. Complex amenities include a heated outdoor pool (in the winter), charcoal grilling area, teak boardwalk to the beach and outdoor shower.

Tropic Isles is the fourth condominium complex to the west of The Hangout and all of the events centered at Gulf Place, the main public beach space in Gulf Shores. So, that means you can walk to all of the events and venues. Just think, you could be steps away from The Hangout, the Shrimp Festival, the women's NCAA Beach Volleyball Championship . . . and so much more. It's all right around the corner.

Situated one floor up from the ground level, Tropic Isles 101 affords you incredible views of our white sand beaches and the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Sit on your balcony in the morning enjoying a cup of coffee as pods of dolphin swim past your condo. The condo's kitchen has everything you need to pull together a seafood feast at the beach and the complex has a charcoal grilling area if you're in the mood for some char-grilled goodness. It's all right here at Tropic Isles 101.

Sitting just a few blocks from the epicenter of the beach, there are more than a dozen restaurants and shops within walking distance of your condo. You may not ever need your car!

When you're ready for some action, the beachside pool is a great place to start. The teak walkway to the beach makes your trek to our soft, sandy beach a breeze. Parasailing and jet ski rentals are all just a few steps away at the public beach.

So, book your next vacation at Tropic Isles 101 and enjoy it all, just a few steps away.

Great location!

This condo is in the perfect location if you are wanting to walk to many destinations. It is also perfect being on the 1st floor, so we didn’t need to take the elevator. It is decorated really nicely! We were shocked at how quiet it was on Memorial weekend. It was just a great stay!

Great 1st floor location above pool

I brought my 80 yr old mom to the beach. She wasn’t interested in going in the hot sun so I enjoyed the pool while she hung out on the balcony overlooking the pool. The location is perfect for her to be “part of” the fun without being IN the sun. Parking was easy and convenient to room

Family vacation

I’m not sure how many condos are at this property. About 40. We prefer this because the beach area isn’t as crowded. It is an older property but this unit has nice updates and was as presented on the listing.

Tropic Isle 101

We enjoyed our stay. Condo could use a more thorough cleaning as well as updated furniture. The couch and inside chairs were very uncomfortable. As well as the inside chair cushions too hard. The inside wicker furniture is pretty, but not comfortable. Closeness to beach and pool and gulf front condo is phenominal. Also used the outside grill almost every night and that was nice. Especially since the condo provided the charcoal and lighter fluid. Overall it was a great getaway.

Mother/Daughter/sister trip

When we arrived we noticed lots of things i clean. Razor in shower, chips and sand on floor, dirty sock in floor, freezer dirty, lots of dust on things. We called and they sent someone back to clean it. We didn’t feel comfortable so we bought supplies and cleaned ourself. Beach chairs are available to rent, however we brought our own and someone stole them. The toliet over flowed the first night and bathtub would not drain. Someone showed up to fix that on the 3rd day of our 4 day trip. I probably would not stay here again. There are so many other options and cleanliness is a huge factor.

Beach time

The condo is cute and is stocked for short stay visits. Bring your spices etc but plenty of pot/pans and dishes. The towels could use some softener but we remedied that our selves. The beach has easy access, and a spray off station upon return. The pool is great. We really enjoyed our stay, lots of places to walk to or quick ride. We did the state park bike ride, loved it! The beach is beautiful, white and fluffy sand 😍. We saw crabs, dolphins, lots of 🐚, and some jelly fish. We will come back for sure!!

Needs a deep clean.

We went as a family of four. Loved the location of the beach. The downside was the property needs a very deep cleaning. It would have been nice to have boogie boards for kids and chairs that were more sturdy for the beach.

We loved the location of this place. We were just steps away from the ocean! We greatly appreciated the boogie boards and beach chairs that were in the unit for guest use. We had issues checking in as the keypad was dead, but a quick phone call got us in with no further problems.

July 2021 Family Vacation

Tropic Isles #101 is a lovely condo, gulf-facing and comfortably furnished. The living room, dining room, bathrooms and bedrooms had everything as stated in the listing. There were even beach supplies in one closet. (I wish I had known that before buying and hauling chairs and boogie boards from Texas.) The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and glasses but lacking in cooking utensils such as a colander and soup ladle. And there were no cooking helpers such as aluminum foil, plastic wrap, plastic zip baggies or any storage containers to store left over food in the refrigerator. If you plan to cook, bring all basic supplies with you. The parking permit was not at the condo upon arrival as stated in arrival directions. When I called ALVBR (property management) there was no answer (Sunday afternoon) nor could I leave a message. The next morning, after receiving a parking ticket for no decal, I called again and a decal was delivered to the condo. The satellite service was bad, only working 1/2 of our week's visit. As the week progressed and the satellite TV went out completely, I called ALVBR again. The promised technician never arrived. I feel bad for the next visitor who will have no local TV stations and cannot call property management on a weekend. Overall the property is beautiful. I will book there again but come better prepared to supplement items needed for a full week of family fun.
