Cristyn's review

Loved the space. The view was great. It was an easy walk to the pools and beach access. Not far from good restaurants. - (Jul 2025)

Girl's trip

Nice condo. Never stayed at VRBO that didn't have TP or garbage bags. Also the door code on checkout day locked is out @ 9:45am. Took one load down and couldn't get the rest of our luggage. Had to call for a one time code. This was a pain and inconvenience. But it was clean and beds were comfortable.. 
 
Gulfsands reply: Thank you for your feedback - we're so glad to hear the condo was clean and the beds were comfortable for your girls' trip! Just to clarify for future guests: we provide a starter set of supplies, including one roll of toilet paper per bathroom and a liner in each trash can. We also send a "What to Bring" list before arrival to help everyone prepare, since vacation rentals are a bit different from hotels in that way. As for the door code - checkout is at 10 a.m., and the code automatically deactivates at that time. When you called around 10 a.m., we were happy to help and promptly gave you a temporary code so you could grab your belongings. We understand that was frustrating and appreciate your patience. Thanks again for staying with us. - (Jun 2025)

Joy's review

We had a great stay at this beach condo! The place was spotless and clearly well-maintained, which made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The location was ideal too, just a short walk to the beach. The pools and hot tubs were very convenient to get to. Registering for parking was a little confusing, since I didn't realize that you can't register until right before checking in, and then they will send you the access code you need for parking. Overall, we were very pleased with the condo and the host did an excellent job respond responding to questions that we had! - (May 2025)

As Described and Great Sunrise and Sunset

Images are exactly what you get. Bright, Cheery home. Nice amenities offered, small indoor pool and larger outdoor pools. Code to get in pool from Beach. New Parking system is great. If you don't want to try to check in on your phone, there is a larger tablet at the entrance by the security person. Fully stocked Kitchen. Fun Puzzle, book exchange downstairs. Mop and broom available, but no cleaning spray. Dollar General is close for items that you need. - (Apr 2025)

Great location and property

Condo was very nice. Beautiful view of oool and beach. Only issue was the floor needed mopping badly. Your feet and socks were extremely dirty in just minutes of walking on floor, not sure if the socks will ever come clean. 
 
Gulfsands reply: Thank you so much for your kind words about the condo and its location-we're so glad you enjoyed the beautiful view of the pool and beach! We're very sorry to hear about the condition of the floors during your stay. That's certainly not up to our standards, and we've addressed it with our cleaning team to ensure it doesn't happen again. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back for an even better experience in the future! - (Apr 2025)

Would love to stay again!

One of my lifelong friends and her son went on a three day trip to Gulf Shores with my two kids and I. We chose this property because of the newly remodeled appearance/cleanliness, beach access, indoor and out door pools. I cannot say enough great things about the property. The location was stellar, the views were gorgeous, the facilities were well taken care of and convenient. The parking pass and facility arm bands were included in the price! They have carts and luggage carriers for hauling stuff to your room. The entire kitchen was well stocked, the AC was great, we had plenty of towels, the washer and dryer were a key part of our choice and they worked well. Honestly, I could not have been happier with this choice and would definitely stay again if that dates worked out and it met our needs for our next trip! - (Mar 2025)

Tena's review

place was exactly as described, clean, well appointed, excellent location, and well stocked. Note: It would have been nice to have an extra roll of tissue for each bathroom:-). Check in and check out were a breeze. Will definitely stay here again in the future! - (Oct 2024)

Mayra's review

Spectacular views from all balconies. (If you love high rise views) The condo is spacious, washer / dryer were very handy. Loved the bridge access to the beach & that pool closes at 11pm. Building and parking are all secure, monitored by security. Will definitely be coming back! - (Sep 2024)

Great place!

I stayed here last week with my husband and our three children, our youngest is 11 months. We had plenty of room for the five of us. Great location to the pool/beach, no troubles with elevator time other than check in time on Sunday. Would definitely stay here again! - (Jun 2024)

Enjoyed our second stay in this condo!

This was our second time staying in this condo. It was great. They let us know the sliding door to the balcony was broken and maintenance would be by to fix it but they never came all week. However there were two doors, so we errr able to use the balcony just fine. The pool rules had changed as far as not being able to have food. This was upsetting as it's a long walk to the condo with kids and all the items. The pool security also hassled us multiple times while at the pool to see our bracelet even though she'd already asked and seen it. Other than that, our stay was delightful. 
 
Gulfsands reply: Hi Ashley, thanks for your review! Once we found the sliding door issue, we reported it to the building management and followed up repeatedly until they were able to repair the track. They did go by during your visit and placed the door back on track. We appreciate your repeat business and look forward to welcoming you back again soon. - (Jun 2024)

Summer Vacation

This place was great! We were impressed as soon as we walked through the door. It was beautifully decorated and all furniture was in great shape. The kitchen was stocked very well. The beds were amazing. We enjoyed both balconies a lot and the amazing views. The access to the pools and the beach was great. Check in was effortless, as there is now a door code instead of a physical key. We were sad to leave and hope to visit again! - (Jun 2024 - VRBO)
