Nice spot for couples getaway

The location is really nicely convenient to the Hangout and main drag but far enough away to be quiet. The layout is nice but needs a few updates to be top notch.

Gulf Shores Getaway

Cozy low-key getaway for senior couple with beautiful views of beach and ocean. Short drive to restaurants, shopping, and Gulf Shores Beach. This unit could use a little freshening up, but it was clean and comfortable for us.

A Wonderful Beach Stay

My wife and I spent a workweek stay that really made the grade at Gulf Tower on the Gulf Shores Beach! Our rental was conveniently situated on a portion of the beach that almost felt private, involved less traffic and provided unobstructed views of the Gulf. We really desired privacy and were amply rewarded. Bender Properties were very easy to work with and checked on us several times via text messages to make sure we were satisfied. We loved our experience!

We loved the glass in balcony. The air worked great. needs some updating. Stove was very old, and the oven didn't work (burned everything wouldn't hold temp). Maint. tried to fix it but so old couldn't get parts for it. Tub wouldn't hold water but maint. brought us a stopper. Not having a washer and drier was a challenge with wet towels and no place to hang them to dry but we managed. overall it's a nice condo and great location if they fix the little things. Stove might not be a deal breaker for some, but we like to cook breakfast and lunch in our room.

Time to relax

When we arrived, half of our condo did not have electricity. The other half did and the air worked. It took 24 hours before it was fixed. The room was not as clean as I hoped it would be. It was out dated, but the view was out of this world. The glassed in room with movable class doors was so narrow ce.

Comfy & cozy

My husband & I just wanted a relaxing lazy get-away and we got what we needed. The balcony was great to be able to sit out on no matter what the weather was. There is no washer/dryer or dish washer which was fine since we ate out and didn't want the extra work this trip. The only thing we used the kitchen for was our morning coffee. :p

The room was very clean. Check in was fast and easy. Great view of the ocean. Loved the sunroom. The only complaint was someone before us didn’t wash the dishes very well and the toaster didn’t work. Overall everything was great!
