Fun Times at Wind Drift

We enjoyed our Spring Break at this property and loved the location. The condo was well appointed with comfy beds, well-stocked kitchen and just a walk to the beach. We were aware of the work being done although they did start early every morning before 7. The workers were friendly and tried to be as unobtrusive as possible. We will be back.

Great Condo

We were down for Spring Break and it was a great experience. Not very crowded and it was a great place to bring a family with children. Will be staying here again in the future if it’s available.

Overall great!

Great condo right on the beach! It was very clean and had everything we needed. The only negative comment I have is that the toilet paper holder was broken and the closet door to the washer and dryer was broken but still usable

Spring Break getaway

Great location, quite, right on the beach. Rooms very spacious. Well kept and clean. Only draw back was shortage on necessary supplies. Only one trash bag, and one roll of t-paper per bathroom. Wifi wasn't working first night and unable to contact management until after weekend. Overall great place.

Family fishing trip at the beach

We planned a family fishing trip at Orange Beach. This condo location was great and close to everywhere we wanted to be. Will book again. Only draw back was no code for the gate when we arrived. However, our booking manager was able to work it and we received a code soon afterwards. Our 10 yr old son loved it! The beach was not flooded with people and so close to the room.

The location was very good. However, the condo was not clean. There was mold in the bathroom. Mold is the bathroom fan and light. And the toilet seat in guest bathroom was broken. Lights and fans were dirty. And furniture was not dusted

Evacuation

During our stay the condo was clean and easy check in process. During our stay they were drilling on the concrete underneath us. Management failed to inform us and it was also unpermited work being done. Drilling and vibrating such an unbearable noise waking up my 1 year old. They told me they would give me a credit of $125 and i've not seen confirmation of that. As a result of the drilling the building was evacuated due to potentional collapse. While they set up another place to stay. My family and i were too shook up to stay and we drove home that night. I see now they have deemed the building safe after saying potential collapse. Due to circumstances I wouldn't feel safe to stay again.

Bad Experience

The property was under construction. You had to use opposite doors and go around often. The trash room to throw trash was disgusting. We called the property manager had to leave messages. Parking was horrible you paid $60 per pass and had to park across the street. Just so poor. Pool was dirty. Our condo stayed hot we were miserable at night. Did get a small credit but for the price I paid should have been more. The garbage disposal didn’t work. Was very disappointing!!!

Clean, Updated, Convenient, Great View Property!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I'll just go ahead and say I like things to be real nice. I have been going to Gulf Shores/Orange Beach for years. Sometimes condos can be old and in need of updating or repair. I can tell that THIS condo, however, has been maintained as well as updated. Kitchen is very nice--looks to be new granite countertops, nice clean appliances -- everything worked perfectly. Three coffee pots in case you're an addict. We felt right at home. This condo is on the first floor (ground floor is very bottom then first floor is one up). I'm unsure why the view is getting a bad report--we had a fantastic view of the beach. I stood on the beach and waved at my husband standing behind the kitchen counter and he waved back. The view is clear and beautiful. In addition, you'll only have one flight of stairs to climb if you decide not to take the elevator--which is doable for most everyone and quicker in most instances. Pool and beach access (across the wooden bridge thing) is approximately 30 seconds walking from the door of the condo (including the stairs). Pool was clean and clear, well maintained. It was nice to have a public men's & women's restroom down at the pool so we didn't have to come back to the room. Nice shaded area with picnic tables at the pool. We went last week of August, first week of September -- we had the beach to ourselves, weather was hot but not miserable like the hot Alabama heat can get. We will go back next next, hopefully to this same condo.

Beautiful Condo and Perfect location

This was our first time to Orange Beach, we always go to Florida so we weren't sure what to expect. This condo is beautiful, the ice maker is a huge game changer, the short walk to the beach and the pool made it so nice! It is home away from home and we loved every minute! If you can go catch the sunrise it is breathtaking. Thank you for sharing your condo and we will be back!!

VRBO - great place, but the property needed wor

This isn’t the first time we’ve rented from VRBO, but this unit and previous rentals always need a lot of work. I feel that this place and previous rentals are treated like red-headed step children. In my experience the properties are treated like rental income/investments for the owner. Below is a list of things we experienced. If I owned a beach property, I know I would take a lot more pride in my home. - Washer/dryer door off the tracks-we put the door in the front closet so it wouldn’t fall on anyone walking in the door - Garbage disposal not working-had to call 3 times-when maintenance came previous renters had put glass in it and clogged it up - No wine glasses/enough ware-need a run of dishwater-glasses-measuring spoons etc -?Light bulbs not working(we’re working-people had untwisted…but cleaning people didn’t bother to turn back on) - There was hair left in bathtubs - Main clock not working - Corner lamp not barely working - All comforters are stained and could use washing - Could really use 2 double beds in front room Monday: - Never called us/returned call about garbage disposal… - Bar stool support leg is broken off chair (on at least 2 bar stools) - Lock box outside is rusted open and keys available etc (we would want to know) - Dish network tv not working-need better instructions for which tv remote to use eyc -Main bedroom dresser handle is off The location of the condo and access to the beach is great. I fill that either the support staff that manage this property are more worried about turnover in the summer and not willing to fix the little things because it might take the condo off the market for a day or two. I enjoy the convenience of VRBO, but the property owners and whomever else is managing them aren’t doing you guys a favor by keeping the property updated.

Perfect unit!

We loved the ease of access to the beach and pool! Having an infant with us, we could not have asked for a more conveniently located unit. The complex itself seemed to be undergoing construction/had damage from a storm or something, and the second bedroom in the unit looked like it was having some work done to it, but it did not bother us in the least, and the elevators did work (had read a few reviews prior to our stay that said they did not). The kitchen was well stocked with supplies. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and definitely plan to return!

Decent condo for the price

We enjoyed our stay in this condo. The kitchen is nicely updated. We loved that there is an ice maker in the kitchen so we didn’t have to buy ice for our cooler the whole time we stayed here. The walk to the beach is short and mostly boardwalk, which is so helpful when you’re toting a wagon and a baby. A couple of negatives: there is mold in the master bathroom on the shower curtain, the shower head, and the walls. The water pressure is great, but it actually kind of hurts. My kids didn’t love taking showers (they preferred a bath) because the pressure from the shower heads was so high and stung a little. I would recommend updated shower heads to regulate the pressure. The cleaning staff did not bother to vacuum the rug underneath the coffee table so we had to do that when we got there so that our baby could play in the floor. Also, the internet is awful. I work from home and so when I am on “vacation” I still have to send out some emails and it was very difficult to do so in this condo. I had to use the hot spot on my phone most of the time. If you’re traveling with an infant, the master closet is the perfect size for a pack n play or play pen. We put our baby to sleep in there with the door cracked and it worked perfectly. Overall we enjoyed the condo, and I would give it 5 stars with a few tweaks.
