It was clean and in great condition, almost everything worked very well (one of the TV remotes didn't work, but it was a non-issue since we didn't care to watch TV there), and the view of the beach was amazing! It's in a very pedestrian friendly area, too. The staff were also very polite and professional. We were able to receive and return our key without any issues. I can definitely picture coming back here again next year!"

Top Gulf Shores Museum Hotel Reviews

Best Western On The Beach

8/10 Good

"oooooooo"

Canal front property in the heart of Gulf Shores

10/10 Excellent

"We rented both units and both were wonderful. Close to restaurants, beach and shops. Units were very spacious and the screened porches were awesome to relax and watch my family fish the lagoon. Plenty of towels, pillows and seating. Kitchen was well stocked. I highly recommend either unit. We arrived early from Mand host allowed early check in which helped our aching bodies from thedruve."

Comfort Inn & Suites Gulf Shores East Beach near Gulf State Park

8/10 Good

"Staff was amazing, location was great, hotel room we had was pretty big & what made it feel maybe larger was the lack of interior amenities such as a table to fill the voided space. Couch was difficult to sit on due to the lack of comfort. Bathroom needed some love as far as touch ups. Water pressure was great. Exhaust fan was non existent in the bathroom. Many light switches inside the room didn't work. TV options were very limited, couldn't even log into my personal streaming services which would've been great. Beds were very comfortable. Didn't utilize the balcony due to the winds but it looked nice. In all I would stay here again"

The Cabins at Gulf State Park

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our stay at the cabins in the park. The cabin was updated, clean and comfortable. Loved the trails and rode our bikes quite a bit. Took advantage of the guided hike (more like a stroll) but learned a lot and enjoyed it. The restaurant in the park is also good and convenient. Would book again."
