Place was clean, neat and safe. Furniture was dated and warn but okay as we put the extra sheets over the furniture to use it. The rug could have been vacuumed, but was okay. The kitchen cabinets and some trim could have used a fresher coat of paint. Convenient to bars, restaurants and souviner shops. Overall a great place to stay and would visit again.

Fabulous Condo

My BFF and I rented the condo for 3 nights and had the time of our lives! The place was super clean and accommodating to us completely. The only complaint we have is we were told check-out is at 10am, but at 9:15, the housekeeper knocked on the door. NOT A BIG DEAL as we told her we're still packing and will be out by 10am. No further issues. Thank you and we will be returning!!!

We love tropic isles but the company- Beach Ball properties did some upselling that was gratuitous and the furniture on the deck/patio was falling apart. Probably won’t stay with this company again.

Location awesome. Updates needed

Floors extremely cold. Living room furniture uncomfortable. Bed uncomfortable and creaks when moving or getting in and out. Dresser drawers falling apart. Stove unreliable and burners are not level. There is so much potential in this condo. The location cannot be beat. Close to everything. Management very reliable when addressing concerns and repairs.

Good and would stay again

It’s a nice area and the beach is great. The building itself is ok too. The unit was 103 and it has a great view of the gulf and beach. Fridge, stove, counters and cupboards were all clean and nice. Bedding was clean and comfortable. Good supply of dishes and kitchenware. But, it does need a really good cleaning of the all floors and the couch/chair is pretty tired. Seriously, the carpet and bare floors will leave your feet dirty. The patio furniture is small and also tired looking. Could use some new kitchen tiles. We would come back to this unit. Again, the view was awesome for a first floor unit. Just needs a real, real good cleaning and a bit of furniture updating.

Tropic Isles 103

The location of Tropic Isles 103 is perfect. The view of the Gulf is amazing from the balcony. We love first floor condos. The condo itself had plenty of room for everything we needed, from a two sink bathroom, to a good sized living room, a comfy huge king bed, 1.5 baths and a furnished kitchen. We have stayed here two years in a row. The main drawback is the condo itself needs updating - everything from the floors, to the cabinets needing painting, the rug in living room seems old and dirty, the same for the lounge chair in living room. The front door is in desperate need of a paint job or just a new door. The door jam looks like it's been hacked on year after year for various key pads. It's really unfortunate, because we love everything else about the place. If just a little care would be given to the general updating.

Drain smell

Started out not so good the door code they gave us didn't work, had to call to get different code. Once in and settled in everything went great. Wife started to smell an odera d found it was coming from the drain. She rinsed well and put a fragrant down the garbage disposal. I think people use the disposal but don't run cold water through after done. My suggestion to the property owner would be, when cleaning up put some orange slices down the disposal and run them through. But disposals must become e rinsed thorally with cold water all the time or food will start to rot if sits for a few w days unused. Other than this we lived the condo and the view.

Perfect for families!

The only issues we had was the bed was super soft memory foam that wasnt very comfortable to us. Also, the stove burners are all crooked so cooking is difficult, but they do have a hot plate so we just used that and it worked great. Other than that, it was perfect! Our code worked the first try, and management was very accommodating when we wanted to add another night last minute. We stayed with our 3 daughters 5 and under, so being able to walk right out to the beach made it a lot easier. Its in walking distance of a lot of restaurants and shops. The view from the balcony is beautiful, although its right above the pool, and one floor up you would be able to see more of the beach. The bunk beds are a tad shorter than a twin so older kids might have a harder time fitting. Bring/buy extra paper towels, toilet paper, and laundry/dishwasher detergent if staying for longer than just a few nights! Just a heads up: you cant have a canopy by the water, only umbrellas under 7ft. Canopys have to be by the dunes away from the water.

First Spring Break Trip

Location was awesome. Walking distance to shops and restaurants and entertainment. Would have given it 5 stars if not for 2 things: 1) the Queen mattress was horrible I slept sideways on it to be able to sleep- way too worn in. Not even close to being comfortable and the mattress protecter was gross with a ?pee stain and ? Blood drops ( noticed when I stripped the bed after). 2. Code for door didn’t work . Wasted over 30 minutes on check in and I had to use the bathroom. Both of these have been mentioned in previous comments. Hopefully owners make some changes. Side notes: If you want to sit peacefully on your deck - pick a higher floor. We were basically poolside. Twin beds are smaller than twins and difficult for teens to get in and out of. My teen daughter slept on the pull out- she said you could feel the mattress wires.

Overall good time.

It was our first time at Gulf Shores, so we weren’t super familiar with the area. We looked at several areas before settling. Upon arrival, check in was VERY easy. Any questions prior- had been answered. The property itself was at a great location. The only issue we really had was it wasn’t super clean. It is my fault that I didn’t report it immediately, everything was just hectic on our end when we got there. The dishes weren’t super clean so anything we used I rewatched, the counter tops weren’t very clean either. I noticed when we got there (I always check the beds) there was someone’s hair on the beds, which easily could happen. I went ahead and just rewashed the bedding. We took pictures of things that we also noticed were broken when we got there to be safe. The filter in the dryer looked melted, there was a door stopper was on top of a cabinet that was broken off we took a picture of that, a hook that was beside the coffee makers that you could tell had been on the wall, and then the ottoman. I would stay again, just wish it was better maintained.
