April in Gulf Shores

Great place to stay. Our group of 2 couples needed a 2bdrm with 2 king beds. This was one of few, particularly at our price point. The ocean was still pretty chili.

We enjoyed our stay right on the beach

We did not contact anyone with checking in or out. Everyone in the building was respectful of each other unattended items. Easy and secure access to the pool and beach. The kitchen was equipped with lots of cookware. Highly recommend this condo.

Patio view was worth it all.

Overall, we loved our stay. Furniture, beds, etc. were all very comfortable and the patio was superb--with a fantastic view of the ocean and the morning sun was perfect. Towels were short in supply including kitchen, one very worn dishcloth and one very thin dish towel (rags I bought were in better shape) Each bathroom had one face cloth and only a few towels. Every thing else was nicely supplied and we loved our rental.

Great location

This is a great place with a great view. Everything appears new and clean. The only reason for not getting 5 stars is the mattress in guest room is very uncomfortable. It is hard and springs on surface level. Honestly everything else is perfect but when you’re paying this much for a place to sleep you want it comfortable.

Totally Disappointed

Loved the location on the beach and the onsite property manager was attentive and helpful. We arrived at 4pm to check in and the unit was not ready and we had to wait for 40 minutes. There were no parking passes in our unit and we were issued an incorrect code to access the beach/pool. We contacted Vacasa for help twice and they were useless and kept telling us someone brought parking passes which never happened. The only response received was from the property mgr. The condo could use some major updating. There was mildew on one of the chairs in the den and the furniture was pretty worn. We paid a hefty price for two nights and it was NOT worth it at all. Total disappointment and lack of customer service.
