Nice, clean, super easy check-in process, and only a short walk to the beach. We chose this due to it being pet-friendly, and our dog really enjoyed his stay as well!

Quick Trip

The cozy condo was great for a visit to the beach. The kitchen was well equipped, the bed and furniture were very comfortable, the pool looked nice, and the beach was just steps away. The location was within walking distance of shops and restaurants.

Weekend Getaway

Our stay here was great. Unfortunately it was a quick trip. The location was perfect and it was good for the price. The code worked on the door every time and we had no issues with check in! The only things that could be improved would be the light switches working in the front entrance/living room and the beach chairs were broken.

We were there for our anniversary and for the most part we had a great time. The beach was amazing .

The place was nice and we enjoyed the two recliners. The only problem we found was with the bed. One side was too close to the wall which made it hard for one of us to get out of the bed in the middle of the night. We thought about moving the bed over some but then it covered up the electrical outlet.

Not really satisfied

Pros: Great location right near the beach. Beach is extraordinary clean and beautiful. Cons: This “First Floor” condo requires you climb a flight of stairs. Although Amenities list Washer/Dryer, they are down a flight of stairs, across a courtyard where you pay to wash and dry your clothes. Furniture while fairly clean is worn out. You sink deeply into it. Good luck getting up. Summary: Ok for a short visit, but not a very comfortable place to stay. I give it a 2 out of 10.

Short vacation

This trip was great and this place will be an amazing return trip AFTER the construction is done. There were workers all over during the day. One morning I was woken up by one of them yelling on my balcony. It’s a very lovely place but the construction definitely put a damper on things.

Our stay at Ocean Reef Condo in Gulf Shores

Everything in general was as described with many positives. Two areas could be improved that would have made a 5 star great stay. 1. Floors were vacuumed but needed to be mopped. 2. Bed was below average both mattress and support. Would stay here again but would inquire about these 2 points before booking.

This Was Ideal For Us

Beach access and parking couldn’t have been better. We literally went barefoot from our condo, through the swimming pool area and parking area and stepped right onto the sand. The condo was bright and happy. There was just the two of us and our main focus was relaxing and walking on the beach. There is plenty more to do when you take the sidewalk through town but we were happy to enjoy the condo and beach. It’s not for persnickety people who are expecting va, va, voom. If you want to come to the beach and have a comfortable place to stay, then this is ideal. We were also amazed at how attentive the customer service was.

Awesome location, home could use some general maintenance

You really could not ask for a better location, close to EVERYTHING! They supply you with 2 packs of laundry detergent, 2 dishwasher tabs, dish soap, sponge , a roll of paper towels and toilet paper which was really nice! The beds were less than comfortable we found ourselves in the living room chairs more often than not. There are no extra blankets for the pull out couch or in general. There are also no dish towels or potholders making getting things out of the oven entertaining. The shower pressure is amazing and there is a nice size tub if you have littles!

Cozy Condo

My husband and I loved this cozy place. It was awesome 5 minutes away from everything. We loved the big shower/tub. The AC works really well. We loved it it was perfect for us. A minute walk to the beach and there is a shower to wash off before you walk into the courtyard. Very nice courtyard with very clean pool, tables, chair and lounges. We didn't bring our fur baby this time but it is pet friendly. We will be back!
