Great property

The condo was great. The appliances could use some updating, but definitely would stay here again. Condo was clean and inviting. Stepping out on the balcony 1st thing in the morning is a must to see the dolphins morning swim. We had a wonderful relaxing week! Thank you!

Very cozy & comfy!

The view from the balcony was breathtaking. It was so nice having such a large seating area, even if it was only the two of us. The condo was very nice & clean. We got a warning for having our towel on the railing so be mindful of that with this complex. I hung it up, showered then realized โ€œoh yeah I can throw it in the dryerโ€ and within that 15 minutes of it being out there I was greeting with a warning on the door. Despite the different small rules you may not have had before, We will definitely be back! Thank you for having us!

Great atmosphere/ service/ location

Communication and service was how it should be, we got into town after 10pm and was checked in within min. Thermostat wasn't working but that was fixed quickly. The elevators were good. The condo has everything you need to enjoy yourself. I do recommend bringing your own pillows, not sure i can call some of those actual pillows. Tried to book for an extra night. The app showed it was available, but when i called it had been booked a couple weeks prior. We would stay again for sure. Loved relaxing on the balcony at night, very chill trip.

Not Someone Sharing their Pride and Joy

This is a for profit unit. Scant barely usable kitchenware. Warped frying pans not best for flat top range. No decent Knives, rusted cutlery doesn't present well. Mirror fell off the wall out of noware, just fell, lucky no one was hurt. Stools at breakfast bar so loose I thought they were going to fall apart, be careful. Nice shag rug if you like that. Beds were uncomfortable, not very nice pillows. Lucky it was just us, two washcloths for a condo to support 5. You get the picture.

Great place to stay with family in gulf shores

Large nice condominium right off the main strip of businesses. Our unit was spacious, stocked with everything you need including toys for the beach and chairs and umbrella. Beach entry was convenient and the pools were a hit with the kids, they stay open until 1030pm and they lived night swimming.

Fall break trip

We have never been to Gulf shores before we had to change our destination last minute after the hurricanes hit Tampa area. We were very pleased with our entire stay. The room was as advertised, clean, came with starter supplies for kitchen/bathroom and plenty of shower towels available. Almost every kitchen appliance was also available even two different types of coffee machines depending on if you brought grounds or k-cups. Only thing we thought was missing was a strainer when we needed to empty grease, we just did our best. The weather was great and with the time of year it wasn't super packed and it made it very relaxing at the pools and hottub at night. Those were open until 1030 pm which was nice. Would recommend staying here and will hopefully be in the future.

Lighthouse 417

Wonderful beach view, comfortable beds, and ALL of the kitchen extras that we could have asked for! No worries for loosing keys or getting locked out because of the keypad lock! The Ad says non smoking room, but the whole complex is non smoking. Not a game changer for us, just be prepared to go downstairs if you smoke. Our stay here was wonderful and hassle free!

Beach Getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation at this condo. The zero entry pool was perfect for our grandson! Everything was clean and even though a hairdryer was not provided, the housekeeper brought us one. I would suggest buying new skillets for the kitchen due to their wear. It was the perfect height to look over the beautiful ocean and be facing the morning sun.

Perfect View

I would have given 5 stars however there were two issues. We were greeted with an awful sewer smell that stayed the duration of our visit. We picked up air freshener so it helped. The other issue was the tv in the bedroom didnโ€™t work at all and the living room was streaming only. That being said the view was phenomenal. Access to the beach was great! Beach was clean and never crowded. We would stay here again!

Great room but odor in kitchen

Overall the condo was great. View was amazing, main bed was comfortable. Bathrooms were clean. When we opened the door there was a bad smell though. We traced it to the kitchen, possibly the garbage disposal. We didnโ€™t call anyone since we were only staying 3 nights and planned to be on the beach. We did use air freshener and tried to make it go away. Property management was great. Texted and responded as needed. Overall a good place to stay.

Fantastic complex

This was my husband and I first time to the Gulf shores. We were blown away with this complex. Amenities were fantastic. Location was perfect to beach, shopping, and restaurants. The condo itself was clean, spacious for us 2, and had comfortable furnishings. My only complaint was the smell of sewer which seemed to come from the front bathroom. We kept the door closed which helped a little. But this did not ruin our stay and will definitely be back.
